Automatic Operation
1. Push the AUTO button on the front ATC panel and the

along with two temperatures for the driver and front
passenger. The system will then automatically regulate
the amount of airflow. 2. Adjust the temperature you would like the system to
maintain, by adjusting the driver, and passenger tem-
peratures. Once the desired temperature is displayed,
the system will achieve and automatically maintain that
comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort level, it is
not necessary to change the settings. You will experience
the greatest efficiency by simply allowing the system to
function automatically.
NOTE:
• It is not necessary to move the temperature settings. The
system automatically adjusts the temperature, mode and
fan speed to provide comfort as quickly as possible.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the automatic
mode, during cold start-ups, the blower fan will remain on
low until the engine warms up. The fan will engage
immediately if the Defrost mode is selected, or by changing
the front blower knob setting.
