Notes:
- When you enter the vehicle, the temperature inside the vehicle may be much colder (or warmer) than a comfortable temperature. It is no use modifying the dis-played temperature to try to attain the desired level of comfort. The system automatically strives to compensate this temperature dis-crepancy as rapidly as possible.
- When starting the engine from cold, in order to avoid distributing too much cold air, the blower will attain its optimum level gradually.
