The rear air conditioner blows cool air out of the rear ventilators while the “A/C” button on the control panel is in the “ON” position. The fan speed of the rear air conditioner can be adjusted using the rear air conditioner dial behind the center console. The fan speed can be adjusted in four steps by turning the dial. Turn the dial to the “OFF” position to stop the fan.

NOTE

• When the “A/C” button is in the “OFF” position and when the “A/C” indicator is not illuminated during AUTO mode operation, the air conditioner compressor does not operate, meaning that the system merely blows uncooled air out of the ventilators.

• The outlet air temperature of the rear air conditioner cannot be adjusted.

• The rear air conditioner cannot be used as a heater.

■ Temperature sensors

The automatic climate control system employs several sensors. These sensors are delicate. If they are treated incorrectly and become damaged, the system may not be able to control the interior temperature correctly. To avoid damaging the sensors, observe the following precautions.

– Do not subject the sensors to impact.

– Keep water away from the sensors.

– Do not cover the sensors.

The sensors are located as follows.

– Solar sensor: beside windshield defroster grille
– Interior air temperature sensor: on the side of the driver-side part of the center panel
– Outside temperature sensor: behind front grille
