2007 Acura RL heating

The automatic climate control
system adjusts the f an speed and
airflow levels to maintain the interior
temperature you select.
In AUTO mode, the vehicle’s interior
temperature is independently
regulated f or the driver and
passenger. If the driver’s side of the
vehicle is getting too much sun, the
system will adjust to a lower
temperature.Press the AUTO button.
Set the desired temperature with
the temperature control bars.
You will see AUTO in the display
if theclimatemodeisselected. The system automatically selects the
proper mix of conditioned and/or
heated air that will, as quickly as
possible, raise or lower the interior
temperature to your pref erence.
When you set the temperature to its
lower or its upper limit, the system
runs at f ull cooling or heating only. It
does not regulate the interior
temperature.
When you change the f an speed, the
f an is taken out of AUTO mode and
starts to run at the selected speed.
You can manually select various
f unctions of the climate control
system when it is in f ully automatic
mode. All other f eatures remain
automatically controlled. Making any
manual selection causes the word
AUTO in the display to go out.
Press the OFF button. However, a
lack of airf low can cause the
windowstofogup.Youshouldkeep
the fan on at all times so stale air and
moisture do not build up in the
interior and cause f ogging.
