CONTROL SYSTEM
The manual and automatic A/Cs have the following 
control functions.
ControlManual A/CAutomatic A/C
Automatic wind temperature change controlApplicableApplicable
Automatic outside/inside air selection controlApplicableApplicable
Idle-up controlApplicableApplicable
Cooling fun load controlApplicableApplicable
Cooling controlApplicableApplicable
Detection control for refrigerant leaksApplicableApplicable
MAX A/C controlNot applicableApplicable
Estimation control for compressor torqueApplicableApplicable
Defroster linked controlNot applicableApplicable
AUTOMATIC CHANGE CONTROL OF 
BLOW WIND TEMPERATURE 
(COMPRESSOR 
ENERGY-CONSERVATION CONTROL) 
Optimum ON/OFF control of the compressor is 
achieved according to the outside/inside air mode, 
air temperature (air temperature sensor), and insula
-
tion.
OUTSIDE/INSIDE AIR AUTO SWITCHING 
CONTROL
When the A/C is turned on in high ambient tempera-
ture, the recirculation function is automatically acti-
vated to cool down the passenger compartment and 
improve fuel consumption.
COOLING FUN LOAD CONTROL
Depending on the A/C load, the cooling fan cycle 
time is controlled and the exterior noise in the inter
-
mediary stage is decreased. Also, the load of the 
alternator is decreased to improve the fuel economy.
COOLING CONTROL
If air temperature is high, the CVT rotates at a high 
speed to prevent deterioration in cooling perform
-
ance. 
DETECTION CONTROL FOR 
REFRIGERANT LEAKS
When it is judged from the air temperature (air tem-
perature sensor) and the refrigerant pressure (A/C 
pressure sensor) that the refrigerant amount is the 
specified value or less, or the refrigerant pressure is 
abnormal, the compressor is forced to be cut off to 
protect the A/C system.
MAX A/C CONTROL <VEHICLES WITH 
AUTOMATIC A/C>
When MAX COOL position is set, automatically the 
mode is changed to the inside air mode before the 
A/C is turned ON, thereby facilitating the operation 
for obtaining maximum cooling performance.
ESTIMATION CONTROL FOR 
COMPRESSOR TORQUE
Communication between the engine⋅CVT-ECU and 
A/C-ECU is made to control the engine according to 
the compressor torque for higher drivability and 
reduction in fuel consumption.
FORCIBLE DEFROSTER CONTROL 
<VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC A/C>
When the defroster vents are selected, the A/C is 
automatically turned ON. At this time, the out
-
side/inside air selection damper is operated to the 
fresh-air position to defrost the windshield glass 
quickly.
