Control Operation

DISPLAY SCREEN
The operation status of the system is displayed on the screen.

AUTO SWITCH
- The compressor, intake doors, air mix doors, mode doors and blower speed are automatically controlled so that the in-vehicle temperature will reach, and be maintained at the set temperature selected by the operator.
- When pressing AUTO switch, air inlet, air outlet, fan speed, and discharge air temperature are automatically controlled.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL SWITCH (POTENTIO TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (DRIVER SIDE)
The set temperature is increased or decreased with this switch.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL SWITCH (POTENTIO TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (PASSENGER SIDE)
- The set temperature is increased or decreased with this switch.
- When the temperature switch is pressed, the DUAL switch indicator will automatically illuminate.

INTAKE SWITCH
- When intake switch is ON, FRE LED turns ON, and air inlet is fixed to FRE.
- When press intake switch again, REC LED turns ON, and air inlet is fixed to REC.
- When intake switch is pressed for approximately 1.5 seconds or longer, FRE and REC LEDs blink twice. Then, automatic control mode is entered. Inlet status is displayed by LED even during automatic controlled.
- When FRE LED is turned ON, shifting mode position to D/F or DEF, or when compressor is turned from ON to OFF, intake switch is automatically turned OFF (fixed to FRE mode). REC mode can be re-entered by pressing intake switch again, and then compressor is turned ON. (Except D/F or DEF position)

DEFROSTER (DEF) SWITCH
Mode doors are set to the defrost position with this switch. Also, intake doors are set to the outside air position, and compressor turns ON.

REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
When illumination is ON, rear window is defogged.

OFF SWITCH
Compressor and blower are OFF, the intake doors are set to the outside air position, and the mode doors are set to the foot (75% foot and 25% defrost) position.

A/C SWITCH
Compressor is ON or OFF with this switch.
(Pressing the A/C switch when the A/C switch is ON will turn OFF the A/C switch and compressor.)

MODE SWITCH
The air discharge outlets is controlled with this switch.

FAN SWITCH
The blower speed is manually controlled with this switch. Seven speeds are available for manual control (as shown on the display screen).

DUAL SWITCH
- When the DUAL switch indicator is illuminated, the driver-side and passenger-side temperature can each be set independently.
- When the DUAL switch indicator is not illuminated, the driver-side setting temperature is applied to both sides.

Fail-safe Function
If a communication error exists between the unified meter and A/C amp., and the A/C and AV switch for 30 seconds or longer, air conditioner is controlled under following conditions:

Compressor : ON
Air outlet : AUTO
Air inlet : FRE (Fresh)
Blower fan speed : AUTO
Set temperature : Setting before communication error occurs
Display : OFF
