AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Two different automatic temperature control (ATC)
heating-A/C systems are available for this model
depending on the market.
The Dual-Zone ATC system allows the driver and
front occupants to each select individual comfort tem-
peratures.
The Three-Zone ATC system allows both the driver
and front occupants and the rear intermediate occu-
pants to select individual comfort temperatures.
NOTE: Individual comfort temperatures are the per-
ceived temperature level at the individual seating
areas, NOT the actual passenger compartment air
temperature.
The ATC system includes a particulate air filter.
The filter element is the same size as the A/C evap-
orator to ensure ample capacity. A door at the base of
the HVAC housing below the glove box provides easy
access to the filter element.
The ATC computer utilizes integrated circuitry and
information carried on the programmable communi-
cations interface (PCI) data bus network to monitor
many sensors and switch inputs throughout the vehi-
cle. In response to those inputs, the internal circuitry
and programming of the ATC computer allow it to
control electronic functions and features of the ATC
system. The inputs to the ATC computer are:
²Vehicle Speed/Engine RPM± The ATC com-
puter monitors engine rpm, vehicle speed and mani-
fold absolute pressure information from the
powertrain control module (PCM).
²Coolant Temperature± ATC computer moni-
tors coolant temperature received from the PCM and
converts it to degrees Fahrenheit.
²Ambient Temperature± ATC computer moni-
tors ambient temperature from the compass mini trip
computer (CMTC) and converts it to degrees Fahren-
heit.
²Engine Miscellaneous Sensor Status±ATC
computer monitors A/C disable information from the
PCM.
²Refrigerant Pressure± ATC computer moni-
tors barometric pressure, intake air temperature,
high side pressure and methanol content as broad-
cast by the PCM.
²Door Ajar Status± The ATC computer moni-
tors driver front door, passenger front door, left rear
door, right rear door and liftgate ajar information, as
identified by the body control module (BCM), to
determine if all in-car temperatures should be main-
tained.²Dimming± The ATC computer monitors dim-
ming status from the BCM to determine the required
level of brightness and will dim accordingly.
²Vehicle Odometer± The ATC computer moni-
tors the vehicle odometer information from the BCM
to prevent flashing the vacuum-flourescent (VF) dig-
ital display icons if the manual motor calibration or
manual cool down tests have failed. Flashing of the
display icons will cease when the vehicle odometer is
greater than 3 miles.
²English/Metric± The ATC computer monitors
the English/Metric information broadcast by the
CMTC. The set temp displays for both the front and
rear control heads will be set accordingly.
²Vehicle Identification Number± The ATC
computer monitors the last eight characters of the
VIN broadcast by the PCM and compares it to the
information stored in EEPROM. If it is different, the
new number will be stored over the old one and a
motor calibration shall be initiated.
²A/C System Information± The ATC computer
will send a message for evaporator temperature too
low, fan blower relay status, evaporator sensor fail-
ure, rear window defogger relay and A/C select.
FRONT CONTROL PANEL
The front A/C-heater control and integral computer
is mounted in the instrument panel and contains:
²a power button which allows the system to be
completely turned off. The display is blank when the
system is off.
²a rocker switch that selects a cool-down rate.
LO-AUTO or HI-AUTO are displayed when the sys-
tem is in automatic operation.
²three rocker switches that select comfort temper-
atures from 15É to 30É C (59É to 85É F), which are
shown in the VF digital display. If the set temp is 15É
C (59É F) and the down button is pressed, the set
temp value will become 13É C (55É F) but the display
will show LO. If the set temp is 29É C (85É F) and the
up button is pressed, the set temp value will become
32É C (90É F) but the display will show HIGH. Tem-
peratures can be displayed in either metric or Fahr-
enheit, which is controlled from the overhead console.
²an air conditioning button that allows the com-
pressor to be turned off. A Snowflake symbol is illu-
minated when air conditioning is on, whether under
manual or automatic control.
²an air recirculation button. A Recirculation sym-
bol appears in the display when the button is
pressed, or when the system exceeds 80 percent recir-
culated air under automatic control due to high air
conditioning demand.
²a rear window defogger on/off switch. A graphic
symbol shows when the defroster is on.

MANUAL THREE ZONE
FRONT CONTROL PANEL
²Primary control of the rear heater-A/C system is
on the instrument panel. This control allows the
driver to set the rear compartment fan speed, to turn
the rear heater-A/C system off, or to give control to
the intermediate seat occupants by switching to the
Rear position. When the rear heater-A/C system is
controlled from the instrument panel, rear air tem-
perature is based on the driver-side temperature con-
trol position, and the mode (floor or overhead air) is
based on the front control's mode position.
²The mode control knob enables continuously
variable proportioning of air flow between modes but
has detents adjacent to each icon.
²The blower control provides four separate speeds
and an Off position. When the heater-A/C system is

REAR CONTROL PANEL
With the rear control active, temperature selection
dictates the air distribution mode (floor or overhead
air) of the rear unit: a cool temperature setting
directs flow to the overhead outlets and a warm tem-
perature setting to the floor.
AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Comfort temperature or perceived temperature is
affected by air flow, sun levels on exposed skin, etc.
The air temperature may be higher or lower than the
comfort temperature. The automatic temperature
control (ATC) system uses two infrared sensors in the
instrument panel center stack to measure the tem-
perature of the front occupants in order determine
their comfort level relative to their selected comfort
temperature. The integral HVAC computer adjusts
temperature and air flow rates to maintain the cus-
tomer-perceived comfort temperatures. The air tem-
perature in the passenger compartment may be
slightly higher or lower than the comfort tempera-
ture at any time. For instance, on sunny summer
days the air flow will probably be cooler than the
comfort temperature; on cold or cloudy days and at
night it will probably be slightly warmer.
The Three-Zone ATC system uses the infrared sen-
sors located in the instrument panel center stack
along with an offset calibration strategy to meet the
comfort requirements of the rear seat occupants.
FRONT CONTROL PANEL
²AUTO HI/LO± This system features two sets of
automatic control logic that allow either a rapid cool-
down rate or a somewhat slower cool-down rate with
less fan noise. HI-AUTO controls the system to reach
its assigned temperature quickly with a higher fan
speed. LO-AUTO controls the system to reach its
assigned temperature somewhat slower with less fan
noise. Both modes will automatically engage auto
recirculation.
²DEFROST± The defrost function must be man-
ually selected to direct air flow to the windshield to
remove fog or ice. The ATC system cannot automati-
cally sense the presence of fog or ice on the wind-
shield.
²RECIRC± The RECIRC button will close the
air inlet door. If the system is in auto recirc (indica-
tor being displayed automatically), pressing the man-
ual recirc button will disable the auto recirc function
until one of the auto keys are pressed or the ignition
is cycled. If Auto HI/LO is pressed while manual
recirc is active, manual recirc will be deactivated.
²REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER± Pushing the
button sends a PCI bus message to the intelligent
power module which controls the rear window defog-
ger and side view mirror (if equipped) circuitry. The

rator initial temperature, then the cool down test has
been failed and further A/C system diagnosis is
required. If the test is failed, the snowflake icon and
the DELAY text will continue to blink across ignition
cycles until the vehicle has been driven for greater
than 13 km (8 miles).
A/C PERFORMANCE TEST
The A/C system is designed to remove heat and
humidity from the air entering the passenger com-
partment. The evaporator, located in the HVAC hous-
ing, is cooled to temperatures near the freezing point.
As warm damp air passes over the fins in the A/C
evaporator, moisture in the air condenses to water,
dehumidifying the air. Condensation on the evapora-
tor fins reduces the evaporators ability to absorb
heat. During periods of high heat and humidity, an
A/C system will be less effective. With the instru-
ment control set to recirculation mode, only air from
the passenger compartment passes through the A/C
evaporator. As the passenger compartment air dehu-
midifies, A/C performance levels rise.
Humidity has an important bearing on the temper-
ature of the air delivered to the interior of the vehi-
cle. It is important to understand the effect that
humidity has on the performance of the A/C system.
When humidity is high, the A/C evaporator has to
perform a double duty. It must lower the air temper-
ature, and it must lower the temperature of the
moisture in the air that condenses on the evaporator
fins. Condensing the moisture in the air transfers
heat energy into the evaporator fins and tubing. This
reduces the amount of heat the A/C evaporator can
absorb from the air. High humidity greatly reduces
the ability of the A/C evaporator to lower the temper-
ature of the air.
However, evaporator capacity used to reduce the
amount of moisture in the air is not wasted. Wring-
ing some of the moisture out of the air entering the
vehicle adds to the comfort of the passengers.
Although, an owner may expect too much from their
A/C system on humid days. A performance test is the
best way to determine whether the system is per-
forming up to design standards. This test also pro-
vides valuable clues as to the possible cause of
trouble with the A/C system. The ambient air tem-perature in the location where the vehicle will be
tested must be a minimum of 21É C (70É F) for this
test.
PERFORMANCE TEST PROCEDURE
WARNING: REFER TO THE APPLICABLE WARN-
INGS AND CAUTIONS FOR THIS SYSTEM BEFORE
PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING OPERATION (Refer
to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
FRONT - WARNING - A/C PLUMBING) and (Refer to
24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
FRONT - CAUTION - A/C PLUMBING).
NOTE: When connecting the service equipment
coupling to the line fitting, verify that the valve of
the coupling is fully closed. This will reduce the
amount of effort required to make the connection.
(1) Connect a tachometer and a manifold gauge
set.
(2) Set the mode control to the Recirculation Mode
position, the temperature control to the full cool posi-
tion and the blower to the highest speed position.
(3) Start the engine and hold at 1,000 rpm with
the A/C compressor clutch engaged.
(4) The engine should be warmed up to operating
temperature with the doors closed and windows
open.
(5) Insert a thermometer in the driver's side center
panel A/C-heater outlet and operate the engine for
five minutes.
(6) If the compressor clutch does not engage, pro-
ceed with diagnosis of the compressor clutch coil.
(Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/
CONTROLS - FRONT/COMPRESSOR CLUTCH
COIL - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
(7) With the A/C compressor clutch engaged, com-
pare the air temperature at the center panel outlet
and the compressor discharge pressure to the A/C
Performance Temperature and Pressure chart. The
compressor clutch may cycle, depending upon the
ambient temperature and humidity. If the clutch
cycles, use the readings obtained before the clutch
disengaged.
RSHEATING & AIR CONDITIONING24-7
HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING (Continued)

The evaporator temperature sensor cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The evaporator temperature sensor monitors the
temperature of the conditioned air once it passes
through the A/C evaporator. The evaporator temper-
ature sensor will change its internal resistance in
response to the air temperatures it monitors and is
connected to the A/C-heater control through sensor
ground and signal circuits. As the conditioned air
temperature increases, the resistance of the evapora-
tor temperature sensor decreases and the voltage
monitored by the A/C-heater control decreases. The
external location of the evaporator temperature sen-
sor allows the sensor to be removed or installed with-
out disturbing the refrigerant in the A/C system.
The A/C-heater control uses this monitored voltage
reading as an indication of the evaporator tempera-
ture. The A/C-heater control is programmed to
respond to this input by sending electronic messages
to the powertrain control module (PCM) over the con-
troller area network (CAN) data bus. The PCM then
cycles the A/C compressor clutch as necessary to opti-
mize A/C system performance and to protect the A/C
system from evaporator freezing.
The evaporator temperature sensor cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it
must be replaced.
The evaporator temperature sensor is diagnosed
using the DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to Body Diagnos-
tic Procedures.

AIR OUTLETS
DESCRIPTION
Based upon the system mode selected, conditioned
air can exit the front HVAC housing through one or a
combination of the four main housing outlets: defrost,
demist, panel, or floor. Once the conditioned air exits
the unit housing, it is directed through molded plas-
tic ducts to the various outlets in the vehicle interior.
These outlets and their locations are as follows:²Defroster Outlet- A single, centrally mounted
outlet delivers air for defrosting the large windshield.
Because outlet vanes are not needed to direct flow, a
simple, integral grid is molded into the center of the
instrument panel top cover to prevent objects from
falling into the duct. If the defroster outlet is faulty
or damaged, the instrument panel top cover must be
replaced.
²Demister Outlets- There are two side window
demisters that aid in defogging and defrosting the
front door windows. One demister outlet is located at
each outboard end of the instrument panel top pad,
near the belt line at the A-pillars. The demister out-
lets can be removed from the top pad individually for
service replacement.
²Instrument Panel Outlets- There are five
panel outlets in the instrument panel, one located
near each outboard end of the instrument panel fac-
ing the rear of the vehicle, and three located near the
top of the instrument panel center bezel. On models
with manual temperature control, all five of these
outlets are fully adjustable. On models with Auto-
matic Temperature Control (ATC) system, the center
outlet in the center bezel has fixed vanes because it
also houses the remote infrared temperature sensors
for the front seat positions. The outboard outlets can
be removed individually for service replacement. The
center bezel outlets are serviced as a gang of three
outlets and, on models with ATC, also includes the
infrared sensors.
²Front Door Rear Outlets- A fully adjustable
outlet located at the rear of each front door trim
panel supplies only cooled air to the intermediate
seat passengers. Air is supplied to these outlets from
the instrument panel through ducts in the doors that
use molded seals at the instrument panel to prevent
air leakage. The door ducts are integral to the front
door trim panels. These outlets also incorporate a red
reflector to improve the safety and visibility of an
opened front door to traffic approaching the vehicle
from the rear at night. These outlets can be removed
from the door trim panels for service replacement.
²Front Floor Outlets- There are two front floor
outlets, one located above each side of the floor panel
center tunnel below the instrument panel. These out-
lets are integral to the front HVAC distribution hous-
ing.
²Rear Floor Outlets- Wide rear floor outlets
located under each front seat have integral, fixed
directional dividers to distribute heated air across
the floor for intermediate seat passengers. These out-
lets are integral to the floor distribution ducts routed
under the front floor carpet from an outlet nozzle on
the bottom of the front HVAC distribution housing.
