Manual

When the vehicle is first started, the display shows the
driver’s temperature setting, the outside temperature,
the fan speed and the air delivery, for about 10 seconds.
The outside temperature is shown in the center of the
display. The digital display will show the readings in
Fahrenheit or Celsius. See “Personal Options” under
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 4-69 for information
on changing your display.
Automatic Operation
AUTO (Automatic): Press the AUTO button to place
the entire system in the automatic mode. When automatic
operation is active, the system automatically controls the
inside temperature, the air delivery mode, and the fan
speed.
After a ten second display of the current settings, the
word AUTO, the driver’s temperature setting and the
outside temperature will be shown. The system operates
to reach the set temperature as quickly as possible. The
AUTO control system works best with the windows up
and the removable roof installed or the convertible top up.
1. Press the AUTO button.
2. Adjust the temperature to a comfortable setting
between 16°C (60°F) and 32°C (90°F). Choosing the
coldest or warmest temperature setting will not cause
the system to heat or cool any faster. A setting of
23°C (73°F) is suggested.
In cold weather, the system will start at reduced fan
speeds to avoid blowing cold air into your vehicle
until warmer air is available. The system starts out
blowing air at the floor but may change modes
automatically as the vehicle warms up to maintain
the chosen temperature setting. The length of
time needed for warm up depends on the outside
temperature and the length of time that has elapsed
since the vehicle was last driven.
3. Wait for the system to regulate. This may take from
10 to 30 minutes. Then adjust the temperature, if
necessary.
Do not cover the solar sensor located in the center of
the instrument panel, near the windshield. For more
information on the solar sensor, see “Sensor” later in this
section.
Manual Operation
Driver Power/Temperature: Press the driver
temperature knob to turn the climate control system off.
This is the only setting that completely shuts off the fan.
The digital display shows only the outside temperature.
The driver and the passenger set temperature and the air
intake mode can still be adjusted when the climate control
is off.
