Solar Sensor: Description and Operation

- The solar sensor is a photocell which measures the incident sunlight. The device can compensate the interior temperature by a maximum of 3 °C (5 °F).
- The system functions even if a sensor is faulty. To prevent the entire unit from being disabled if a sensor becomes faulty, the system is programmed to continue operating in a more or less normal manner in this event. However, it will react more slowly and will control the temperature less precisely.
- The A/C button, however, will not flash to indicate the presence of a solar sensor fault.
