HEATER, AIR CONDITIONING AND VENTILATION55-8
COMMUNICATION
A/C-ECU performs the signal transmission and
reception with each ECU via CAN (Controller Area
Network)*
1. Also, with the heater control panel, it
transmits and receives signals via serial communica
-
tion.
NOTE: : For details of CAN communication, refer to
GROUP 54C
− Controller Area Network P.54C-2.

A/C COMPRESSOR

A/C COMPRESSORM2551001100268
HIGH EFFICIENCY COMPRESSOR WITH
INTEGRATED OIL SEPARATOR
High efficiency compressor with integrated oil sepa-
rator has been adopted to enhance fuel economy by
reducing the A/C operating rate.
MAGNETIC CLUTCH WITH THERMAL
FUSE
At the compressor lock, the thermal fuse integrated
in the magnet clutch is blown due to the frictional
heat against the compressor in order to reduce risk
of the drive belt breakage. The thermal fuse, together
with the coil, is coated with resin to enhance resis
-
tance to corrosion.
2-STEP PROFILE COMPRESSOR
The centre area of the scroll in the compressor pro-
vides 2-step profile, and thickness of area "B" shown
in the figure has been increased to enhance
strength. With this feature, thickness of area "A"
shown where lesser load is applied is reduced, thus
compressor performance is enhanced by compress
-
ing refrigerant even in central area, comparing to the
previous model.
CONDENSERM2551001400140
The condenser has been integrated with the radiator (cooling
module) to optimise ventilation and reduce weight.

The rear heater duct has been introduced, and the
air distribution ratio to front and rear seats has been
optimised in order to enhance the air heating perfor
-
mance for the rear seats, and to prevent the circula-
tion of cooled air back to the front seats.

VENTILATION SYSTEMM2551002000554
Fresh air is sucked from the front deck and
exhausted through the air outlet behind the rear
bumper. Optimizing areas of the outside air induction
hole and the air outlet enhances ventilated air
amount, reducing noise.
