Description And Operation: Description
Only use R-1234yf refrigerant and specific refrigerant oil for the climate control system compressor.
The vehicle is available with a manual or automatic dual zone climate control system.
With the automatic system, the operator can choose either automatic or manual operation. During automatic operation, the operator simply sets a target temperature. The Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) module determines the best combination of A/C compressor operation, mixing flap position, and outlet air direction and speed to control passenger compartment humidity and reach the target temperature using adjustments to the settings on the A/C Heater Control.
During manual operation, the operator can select A/C operation, air flow speed, air flow outlet location, and choose either fresh or recirculated air.
The HVAC module is located on the left side of the HVAC housing. The A/C heater control is integral to and located in the Integrated Center Stack (ICS).
