Climate Control System - Overview: Overview

The Dual Automatic Temperature Control (DATC) system maintains the selected vehicle interior temperature by heating and/or cooling the air depending on the HVAC control panel selection.

• The driver may override the automatic mode of operation.
• The temperature control setting is the desired cabin air temperature.
• The blower motor control override buttons vary the blower motor speed.
• The driver side and passenger side temperature settings can be individually controlled.
• During A/C operation, the system reduces the relative humidity of the air inside the vehicle.
• Vehicles equipped with Auto Start-Stop have a cabin heater coolant pump to help coolant flow to the heater core.
