The dual zone A/C system is an electrically controlled
heating, ventilating and air conditioning system. This system allows the driver
and passenger the ability to adjust discharge temperature of the system
independently.
The following aspects are controlled by the system:
| • | The compressor clutch operation. |
| • | The driver and passenger discharge temperatures. |
The driver may select a desired interior temperature, a fan speed and
one of five different modes of operation from the control system.
One of these modes is a fully automatic dual zone mode which determines
the following conditions (set by the driver):
| • | The discharge air temperatures. |
The passenger side of the vehicle contains a separate control assembly
that can increase or decrease air discharge temperature for the passenger
side of the vehicle.
The following settings are remembered as part of personalization:
| • | Driver set temperature. |
| • | Passenger set temperature. |
| • | Compressor operation (A/C ON/OFF). |
