WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When AUTO is selected:
- the temperature control setting is manually set to the desired setting.
- the air inlet door actuator is automatically controlled by the HVAC module, based on the temperature setting.
- the mode door actuators are automatically controlled by the HVAC module, based on the temperature setting.
- the A/C compressor is automatically controlled by the HVAC module, based on the temperature setting. The A/C compressor will not operate if the outside temperature is below approximately 6°C (43°F).
- the A/C request button or the RECIRC request button, if pressed, will transfer the system to semi-auto operation.
- the blower motor is ON. The blower motor speed is automatically controlled by the HVAC module, based on the temperature setting, but can be manually overridden.
