DRIVER’S HVAC CONTROL UNIT
22296
The vehicle is divided into two areas:
1 - Driver’s area (driver’s HVAC unit)
2 - Passengers’ area (central HVAC unit)
Fresh air is fed in each area and has a separate
return air and discharge air duct.
The driver’s HVAC control unit is used to control
heating,
ventilation,
air conditioning and
defroster in the driver’s area. The passenger’s
area HVAC unit (central unit) has a preset
temperature of 68°F (20°) and is fully automatic.
It turns on at starting of the engine. No inputs
are required from the driver to control the
passenger’s HVAC unit.
NOTE
It is recommended to run engine at fast idle to
operate the air conditioning system when
vehicle is stationary.
This will improve A/C compressor performance
and provide adequate electrical power to the
multiple A/C system fans.
When the system is running, keep roof
ventilation hatch and door closed to prevent
cooling loss.
To prevent battery run-down, the central HVAC
unit will not operate if the charging system is not
working properly.
When the HVAC system is in operation, park at
least 4 feet from other vehicles or buildings to
allow sufficient air flow through the condenser
core.
The driver’s HVAC unit may be turned ON by
pressing the ON/OFF button.
Also, the driver's HVAC unit turns on
automatically at starting of the engine and uses
the settings kept in memory before turning off of
the system.
The HVAC control unit performs a self-test every
time it is turned on. Codes are shown on
displays or flashed on control buttons. Refer to
the Maintenance Manual for more information on
the diagnostic codes.
In cold weather,
the A/C compressor starts
automatically when the two following conditions
are satisfied:
1.
The outside temperature is above 32°F.
2.
The
increasing
passenger's area
temperature has reached 7°F under the set
point. At this moment, enough heat is
available from the engine to warm up the
area while the air conditioning will remove
moisture in air and prevent fogging up of
the windows
.
NOTE
Upon starting, if the outside temperature is
above 32
°F (0°C) and then drops below
32
°F
(0°C), the compressor will keep running up to
a temperature of 15°F (-9°C) to prevent
fogging up of the windows.
Heating Mode Indicator
22131
This red LED illuminates when system
is heating.
Cooling Mode Indicator
22134
This green LED illuminates when the
system is cooling
(when the
compressor clutch is engaged).
