When you enter the vehicle, the
temperature inside the vehicle may
be much colder (or warmer) than a
comfortable temperature. There is
no point in modifying the displayed
temperature to try to attain the de-
sired level of comfort. The system
operates automatically to compen-
sate this temperature discrepancy
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.
