If
your vehicle is sitting
out
on
a
hot day and you have
it
set on AUTO, the air will
first
flow out
the
floor air
outlets for a few seconds. That is normal. This
is
to
expel hot air from the air outlets. As the air
is
cooled,
the airflow will move through
the
air conditioning
outlets. If you start your vehicle with the fan setting
on
HI,
it will skip the air conditioning purge.
To avoid blowing cold air in cold weather, the system
will delay turning on the fan until warm air is available.
The length
of
delay depends on the outside air
temperature, engine coolant temperature
or
the time
since the engine was last started.
As
the coolant warms
up,
the
blower fan speed will gradually increase and air
will flow from the heater outlets, with some aifflow
to the windshield to prevent fogging under most
normal conditions.
If you leave your vehicle, the system will remember the
control setting the next time
you
start your engine,
except for recirculation and defrost. Each ignition cycle
cancels recirculation, whereas,
DEFROST
will change
to automatic operation when the ignition is
shut
off
and
then turned back on.
