The temperature you select in the passenger
compartment corresponds to the physical
experience with reference to factors such as
ambient temperature, air speed, humidity and
solar radiation etc. in and around the car at
the time.
The climate control system has a number of
sensors to help control the temperature
(p. 132) in the car.
The interior in a passenger compartment is
designed to be pleasant and comfortable,
even for people with contact allergies and for
asthma sufferers.

of the dashboard.

which detects on which side the sun is shin-
ing into the passenger compartment. This
means that the temperature can differ
between the right and left-hand air vents
despite the controls being set for the same
temperature on both sides.
