CHECKING AUTO MODE
1. Press AUTO switch and A/C switch.
2. Display should indicate AUTO.
Confirm that the compressor clutch engages (sound or visual
inspection). (Discharge air and blower speed will depend on
ambient, in-vehicle, and set temperatures.)
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for AT C - 6 3 , "
