Your vehicle also has the flow-through ventilation system described later in this section. The digital screen displays outside the temperature, theinside temperature setting, and thefan speed. If the inside temperature is changed, or if the system is changed from OFF to any mode,the inside temperature setting will be displayed for several seconds before the outside temperature is again displayed. The air conditioner compressoroperates in all air conditioning positions, and in 1. (Defrost) when the outside temperature is above freezing.When the air conditioner is on,you may sometimes notice slight changes in your vehicle's engine speed and power.

The sun load sensor on top of the dashboard detects increased interior temperature caused by sunlight. To keep you comfortable, it reduces the interior temperature by as much as 5°F (3°C) below the setting on the digital screen. The outside air temperature sensor, located on the right side of the upper radiator support in the grille opening, reads the outside temperature. This is what you usually see on the display. 3p 140
