DUAL AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL (DATC) SYSTEM
The Dual Automatic Temperature Control (DATC) system will maintain a
selected temperature and automatically control air flow.
You can override the automatic operation with any of the override
controls.
The dual temperature zone feature allows the driver and front passenger
to set their own independent temperature set points for individual
comfort. The system uses common controls for air distribution and fan
speed for both driver and passenger.
Turning the system on
Press AUTO, any of the override controls, the fan speed control, or
either of the temperature selection controls. The DATC system will only
operate when the ignition is in the RUN position.

Turning the system off
Press OFF. The outside temperature
(EXT) function (if selected) will
continue to operate until the
ignition is turned off.
DATC automatic operation
Press AUTO and select the desired
temperature. The selected
temperature will appear in the
display window, and an indicator
above the AUTO control will light.
The DATC system will either heat or
cool the vehicle to achieve the
selected temperature. The system
will automatically determine the fan
speed, airflow location and whether outside or recirculated air is
required.
When in AUTO and weather conditions require heat, the DATC directs
the majority of the airflow to the floor area. The system will allow some
airflow out of the defroster, demister outlets and outer instrument panel
registers in order to reduce window fogging. Additionally, if the engine is
not warm enough to provide heat, the fan will operate at a low speed
and the airflow will be directed to the windshield or to the floor. In
approximately 3
1¤2minutes or less, the fan speed will start to increase
and the airflow location will change to the floor area.
When in AUTO mode, the DATC system automatically controls the air
conditioning operation, the fan speed, the airflow direction and
determines whether outside or recirculated air is required. Manual
control of the A/C, air recirculation and fan speed are available in auto
mode.
If unusual conditions exist (i.e. window fogging), the manual override
controls allow you to select airflow locations as necessary. To return to
full automatic control, press the AUTO control.

DATC system AUTO temperature balance
Press and hold the AUTO control for about two seconds to equalize the
passenger set temperature with the driver side temperature. This feature
is useful when the driver is alone in the vehicle.
Driver side temperature selection
The display window indicates the selected temperature and manual
control of fan speed (
) if automatic fan speed is not desired.
To control the temperature, select any temperature between 19É C (65É
F) and 29É C (85É F) by pressing the temperature control on the driver
side of the system.
For continuous maximum cooling, press the temperature control until
16É C (60É F) is shown in the display window. The DATC will continue
maximum cooling (disregarding the displayed temperature) until a
warmer temperature is selected by pressing the temperature control. If
maximum cooling is selected, the passenger set point is not displayed
and the passenger temperature adjustments will be disabled.

For continuous maximum heating, press the temperature control until
32É C (90É F) is shown in the display window. The DATC will continue
maximum heating (disregarding the displayed temperature) until a
cooler temperature is selected by pressing the temperature control. If
maximum heating is selected, the passenger set point is not displayed
and the passenger temperature adjustments will be disabled.
A change of the driver-selected temperature to a temperature other than
16É C (60É F) or 32É C (90É F) will display the passenger set point. The
passenger side set point will increase or decrease along with the driver
side temperature set point until a change is made using the passenger
temperature control.
Passenger side temperature selection
To control the temperature, select
any temperature between 19ÉC
(65ÉF) and 29ÉC (85ÉF) by pressing
the temperature control on the
passenger side of the system.
If the driver side temperature
selection is set for maximum cooling
(16ÉC (60ÉF)) or maximum heating
(32ÉC (90ÉF)), the passenger side
temperature adjustments will be
disabled and the passenger set point will not be displayed.
Temperature conversion
Press the Fahrenheit/Celsius
(ÉFÉC)control to switch between
Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature
on the display only. The
temperature in Celsius will be
displayed in half-degree increments.
The English/Metric control on the
trip computer and message center
(if equipped) will not change the
temperature display. Refer toElectronic message centerin theDriver
controlschapter.

Fan speed ()
When AUTO is pressed, fan speed is adjusted automatically for existing
conditions. You can override fan speed at any time. To control fan speed
manually, press the fan control to cancel the automatic fan speed
operation. Press the control up for higher fan speed or down for lower
fan speed. The display will show
and a bar graph to indicate manual
fan speed operation and relative speed.
When the fan is adjusted in the AUTO mode, the AUTO indicator will
remain lit and the system will remain in auto operation.
To return to automatic fan operation, press AUTO. The fan icon and bars
will disappear from the display, and the DATC system will return to full
automatic operation.
²A/C control
A/C(air conditioning) Ð Used to manually enable or disable the
operation of the air conditioning in all modes except defrost. In all
modes, the air conditioning will only function if the outside temperature
is about 2É C (35É F) or higher. When manual A/C is selected (ON) the
indicator will be lit. When manual A/C is selected (OFF) the indicator
will not be lit.

In defrost mode, if the outside temperature is about 2É C (35É F) or
higher, the air conditioner will automatically dehumidify the air to reduce
window fogging. However, the A/C indicator will be off and the A/C
override control cannot be selected.
When AUTO is selected, the A/C operates automatically for existing
conditions. With automatic A/C operation, the A/C indicator will be lit if
the outside temperature is about 2É C (35É F) or higher. You may
override the automatic A/C operation at any time. To manually control
the A/C operation and cancel automatic A/C operation, press the A/C
control. When the A/C is manually controlled in the AUTO mode, the
AUTO indicator will remain lit. To return to automatic A/C operation,
press AUTO.
²Recirculation control
(air recirculation) Ð Used to manually enable or disable the
operation of the recirculated air operation in all modes except defrost.
The use of recirculated air when the air conditioning is operating helps
to reduce the amount of time to cool down the interior of the vehicle in
very hot conditions. Recirculated air may also help to keep undesired
outside odors from reaching the vehicle interior. It is recommended to
allow the DATC system to automatically control the selection of outside
or recirculated air.
The recirculation control cannot be selected in the defrost mode, as
interior fogging may occur.
In floor and floor/defrost modes, the DATC system will automatically
return to outside air to help reduce window fogging. When the
recirculation air control is selected, the amount of time in manual
recirculated air depends on the ambient temperature.

When AUTO is selected, the recirculated air feature operates automatically
for existing conditions. You may override the automatic recirculated air
operation at any time. To manually control the recirculated air operation
and cancel automatic recirculated air operation, press the recirculated air
control. When the recirculated air is manually controlled in the AUTO
mode, the AUTO indicator light will remain lit. To return to full automatic
recirculated air operation, press AUTO.
Do not leave the DATC system in recirculated air operation for extended
periods of time while the system is in a heating mode or in cold/damp
conditions as this may cause interior fogging of the front, side and rear
windows.
Manual override controls
The manual override controls allow you to manually determine where
airflow is directed. To return to fully automatic control, press AUTO.
When a manual airflow override control is selected, the DATC system will
turn off the AUTO indicator and display the indicators of all operating
override controls. More than one override control indicator may turn on
when an override control is selected.
The air conditioning compressor can operate in all modes except OFF.
However, the air conditioning will only function if the outside
temperature is about 2É C (35É F) or higher.
Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air
during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under
the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you
have stopped the vehicle.
