Manual mode operation:
If you operate any of the switches and dials on the
control panel other than the “OFF” switch and temper-
ature control dial during automatic mode operation,
the indicator light on the “AUTO” switch goes out. You
can then manually control the system as desired using
the switch or dial you operated.
To change the system back to the AUTO mode, press
the “AUTO” switch.
OFF switch
The Automatic Climate Control system turns off (the
air conditioner compressor and fan turn off) when the
“OFF” switch is pressed.
When the “OFF” switch is pressed, the outside air in-
troduction mode (air inlet selection OFF) is automati-
cally selected.

position causes the illumination on the display
panel to dim. When traveling with the lights on in
gloomy daylight or in twilight, press the OFF
switch for 1 second or longer if you feel it is too

ness comes back to normal. If you wish to dim the illumination again, hold
down the OFF switch again or if you can safely do
