TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS — GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
3. With engine started, touch “START”, “ICC”, “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” on CONSULT-II screen in this order.
CAUTION:
If “ICC” cannot be shown after several attempts, the ICC unit may be malfunctioning and should
be replaced. Refer to ACS-60, "
ICC Unit" .
4. Self-diagnostic result appears on screen. If “NO DTC ···” is shown, check ICC warning lamp. If any mal-
function is indicated, GO TO step 5.
5. Refer to ACS-36, "
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Chart" , perform appropriate check, and repair or
replace malfunctioning part as necessary.
6. Turn ignition switch OFF.
7. Start engine and touch “START”, “ICC”, “SELF-DIAG RESULT”, and “ERASE” on CONSULT-II.
CAUTION:
DTC of an existing malfunction will not erase. If the memory does not erase, GO TO step 5.
8. Perform ICC system running test (drive vehicle with ICC system ON), and make sure that ICC warning
lamp does not illuminate.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1. Go to operation check after asking the customer for symptom information. Refer to ACS-9, "ACTION
TEST" .
2. Stop the vehicle to start the self-diagnosis.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn ignition switch ON, and wait 5 seconds. Press ACCEL/RES
switch 5 times, and then press COAST/SET switch 5 times all
within 5 seconds to start self-diagnosis.
CAUTION:
Do not start the engine.
Do not press the ICC ON/OFF switch ON.
When operation above is not completed within the 5 to 10
second window, DTC will not be displayed.
If self-diagnosis mode cannot be started after several
attempts, the ICC unit may be malfunctioning and should be
replaced. Refer to ACS-33, "
SELF-DIAGNOSIS BY ICC SYS-
TEM DISPLAY WILL NOT RUN" .
5. When self-diagnosis mode is started, DTCs are shown on set vehicle speed indicator.
CAUTION:
DTC will disappear after 5 minutes.

DISPLAY SCREEN
Displays the operational status of the system.
AUTO SWITCH
The compressor, intake door, air mix doors, outlet doors and blower speed are automatically controlled so
that the in-vehicle temperature will reach, and be maintained at the set temperature selected by the oper-
ator.
When pressing AUTO switch, air inlet, air outlet, blower speed, and discharge air temperature are auto-
matically controlled.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL (TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (DRIVER SIDE)
Increases or decreases the set temperature.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL (TEMPERATURE CONTROL) (PASSENGER SIDE)
Increases or decreases the set temperature.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL DIAL (TEMPERATURE AND MODE CONTROL) (REAR)
Increases or decreases the set temperature. The mode also changes from foot at full hot setting, to foot/vent
mid-range (warm) setting, and then to panel on full cold setting.
RECIRCULATION () SWITCH
When REC switch is ON, REC switch indicator turns ON, and air inlet is set to REC.
When REC switch is turned OFF, or when compressor is turned from ON to OFF, REC switch is automati-
cally turned OFF. REC mode can be re-entered by pressing REC switch again.
REC switch is not operated when DEF switch is turned ON, or at the D/F position.
DEFROSTER () SWITCH
Positions the air outlet doors to the defrost position. Also positions the intake doors to the outside air position.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
When switch is ON, rear window is defogged.
OFF SWITCH
The compressor and blower are OFF, the intake doors are set to the outside air position, and the air outlet
doors are set to the foot (75% foot and 25% defrost) position.
A/C SWITCH
The compressor is ON or OFF.
(Pressing the A/C switch when the AUTO switch is ON will turn off the A/C switch and compressor.)
MODE SWITCH (FRONT)
Controls the air discharge outlets.
FRONT BLOWER CONTROL DIAL
Manually control the blower speed. Seven speeds are available for manual control (as shown on the display
screen).
