System Operation: Notes

The Dual Automatic Temperature Control (DATC) system maintains the selected vehicle interior temperature by heating and/or cooling the air.

• During A/C operation, the system reduces the relative humidity of the air inside the vehicle.
• The driver may override the automatic mode of operation.
• The temperature control setting is the desired cabin air temperature.
• The blower motor control override buttons vary the blower motor speed.
• The driver side and passenger side temperature settings can be individually controlled.

When the DATC system is set to AUTO the air distribution direction, blower motor speed and A/C compressor operation and air inlet door mode are automatically controlled based on the temperature(s) selected.

The DATC system manual override settings:

• allow the air distribution direction to be manually selected.
• allow the blower motor speed to be manually selected.
• allow recirculation mode to be manually selected in all modes except DEFROST. The A/C request can be manually selected by pressing the A/C request switch.
• allow A/C compressor operation to be manually selected except in DEFROST and FLOOR/DEFROST.

MyTemp 

The MyTemp feature can be used to store and recall a preset driver's temperature. This feature is provided so this temperature can be quickly adjusted to a frequently used setting with a single button press.
