Controls and features Turning the EATC off Press OFF. OFF TEMP AUTOMATIC OFF REAR 1 A/C Automatic operation Press AUTOMATIC and select the desired temperature. The selected temperature and the word AUTO will appear in the display window. The EATC system will either heat or cool to achieve the selected temperature. The system will automatically determine fan speed, airflow location and if outside air or recirculated air is required. Fan speed remains automatic unless the fan speed control is turned. When in AUTOMATIC and weather conditions require heat, air will be sent to the front and rear floor ducts. However, if the engine is not warm enough to provide heat, the fan will be at a low speed and the air will be directed to the windshield. In 31⁄2 minutes or less, the fan speed will start to increase and the airflow location will change to the front and rear floor area. If unusual conditions exist (i.e. window fogging, etc.), the manual override controls allow you to adjust the mode selector and fan speed controls as necessary. Temperature selection The display window indicates the selected temperature, function (AUTO or one of the override controls) and manual control of fan speed ( ) if automatic fan speed is not desired. ˚F AUTO 30
