FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1. SET IN SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Set in self-diagnosis mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press OFF switch for at least 5 seconds.
CAUTION:
If battery voltage drops below 12 V during diagnosis STEP-3, door motor speed becomes slower
and as a result, the system may generate an error even when operation is normal. To avoid this,
start engine before performing this diagnosis.

AUXILIARY MECHANISM: TEMPERATURE SETTING TRIMMER
The trimmer compensates for differences in range of 3C (6F) between temperature setting (displayed dig-
itally) and temperature felt by customer.
Operating procedures for this trimmer are as follows:
1. Begin self-diagnosis STEP-5 mode. Refer to ATC-55, "
Self-diagnosis Function" .
2. Press (fan) UP switch to set system in auxiliary mode.
3. Display shows 61 in auxiliary mechanism. It takes approximately 3 seconds to enable setting operation.
4. Press temperature control switch (driver side) as desired. Temperature will change at a rate of 0.5
C
(1.0
F) each time a switch is pressed.

Starting Fan Speed Control
Start up from COLD SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
In a cold start up condition where the engine coolant temperature is below 56
C (133F), the blower will not
operate for a short period of time (up to 150 seconds). The exact start delay time varies depending on the
ambient and engine coolant temperature.
In the most extreme case (very low ambient) the blower starting delay will be 150 seconds as described
above. After this delay, the blower will operate at low speed until the engine coolant temperature rises above
56
C (133F), at which time the blower speed will increase to the objective speed.
Start up from usual or HOT SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
The blower will begin operation momentarily after the AUTO switch is pressed. The blower speed will gradu-
ally rise to the objective speed over a time period of 3 seconds or less (actual time depends on the objective
blower speed).
Blower Speed Compensation
Sunload
When the in-vehicle temperature and the set temperature are very close, the blower will be operating at low
speed. The low speed will vary depending on the sunload. During conditions of low or no sunload, the blower
speed is at duty ratio 25%. During high sunload conditions, the unified meter and A/C amp. raise the blower
speed (duty ratio 49%).
Fan Speed Control Specification
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Brush-less Motor
The blower motor utilizes a brush-less motor with a rotating magnet.
Quietness is improved over previous motors where the brush was
the point of contact and the coil rotated.
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR BLOWER MOTOR
SYMPTOM: Blower motor operation is malfunctioning.
