INFOID:0000000006275896
DESCRIPTION
If the temperature felt by the customer is different from the front air flow temperature controlled by the temper-
ature setting, the A/C auto amp. control temperature can be adjusted to compensate for the temperature set-
ting.
HOW TO SET
With CONSULT-III
Perform “TEMP SET CORRECT” of HVAC work support item.
NOTE:
 When −3.0 °C ( −6 °F) is corrected on the temperature setting set as 25.0 °C (77 °F) the temperature controlled
by A/C auto amp. is 25.0 °C (77 °F) −3.0 °C ( −6 °F) = 22.0 °C (72 °F) and the temperature becomes lower than
the temperature setting.
 When the battery cable is disconnected from the negativ e terminal or when the battery voltage becomes 10
V or less, the setting of the difference between t he set temperature and control temperature may be can-
celled.

(FRE)
INFOID:0000000006275898
DESCRIPTION
 If the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position while t he intake switch is set to OFF (fresh air intake), “Per-
form the memory” or “Do not perform the memory” of in take switch OFF (fresh air intake) condition can be
selected.
 If “Perform the memory” was set, the intake switch will be OFF (fresh air intake) when turning the ignition
switch to the ON position again.
 If “Do not perform the memory” was set, the air inlets will be controlled automatically when turning the igni-
tion switch to the ON position again.
HOW TO SET
With CONSULT-III
Perform the “FRE MEMORY SET” of HVAC work support item.
NOTE:
When the battery cable is disconnect ed from the negative terminal or when the battery voltage becomes 10 V
or less, the setting of the FRE memory function may be cancelled.

form the memory” or “Do not perform the memory” of intake switch ON (recirculation) condition can be
selected.
 If “Perform the memory” was set, the intake switch will be ON (recirculation) when turning the ignition switch
to the ON position again.
 If “Do not perform the memory” was set, the air inlets will be controlled automatically when turning the igni-
tion switch to the ON position again.
HOW TO SET

ting.
HOW TO SET
With CONSULT-III
Perform “REAR TEMP SET CORRECT” of HVAC work support item.
NOTE:
 When −3.0 °C ( −6 °F) is corrected on the temperature setting set as 25.0 °C (77 °F) the temperature controlled
by A/C auto amp. is 25.0 °C (77 °F) −3.0 °C ( −6 °F) = 22.0 °C (72 °F) and the temperature becomes lower than

not turned ON in synchronization with the auto intake
switch.
Control of the auto intake switch is function al even when the A/C switch is turned OFF.
Setting 2 When the auto intake switch is ON, the A/C switch is al
so turned ON in synchronization with the auto intake
switch.
When the A/C switch is turned OFF, the auto intake switch is turned OFF in synchronization with the A/C
switch.
