2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the
desired temperature.
쐌 Adjust the temperature set dial to about 24°C
(75°F) for normal operation.
쐌 The temperature of the passenger compart-
ment will be maintained automatically. Air
flow distribution and fan speed are also con-
trolled automatically.

desired temperature.
쐌 The temperature of the passenger compart-
ment will be maintained automatically. Air
