the fan is taken out of AUTO mode.
When you set the temperature to its
lower limit ( ) or its upper limit
( ), the system runs at f ull
cooling or heating only. It does not
regulate the interior temperature.
In the Auto mode, the vehicle’s
interior temperature is
independently regulated f or the
driver, f ront passenger, and rear
passengers according to each
adjusted temperature. The system
also regulates each temperature
basedontheinformationof the
sunlight sensor and the sun’s
position which is updated
automatically by the navigation’s
global positioning system (GPS). For
example, if the driver’s side of the
vehicle is getting too much sun, the
system will adjust to a lower
temperature.
When you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position, the temperature
of the rear passenger compartment
is synchronized to the driver’s side
set temperature. You will see SYNC
on the system display of the rear
control panel. Changing the
temperature of the rear passenger
compartment takes the system out
of synchronized mode. This causes
thewordSYNCinthedisplaytogo
out and displays the rear
temperature in the f ront display.
When you turn the ignition switch to
the ON (II) position and see LOCK
on the system display of the f ront
and rear control panels, the
