Compressor Control: Notes
When operating the air conditioning switch
- The air thermo sensor, which senses the temperature of the air flowing out of the evaporator, deactivates the compressor at 3°C (37.4°F) or below.
- The dual pressure switch turns OFF when the refrigerant pressure becomes excessively high or low, thus protecting the compressor circuit (See A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH RELAY CONDITIONS ).
- When the air thermo sensor is activated, and the ignition switch, blower switch, and air conditioning switch are ON, the A/C compressor clutch relay is energized.
When operating the mode selection dial
- The air conditioning will work when the mode selection dial is set to the "Defroster" or "Defroster/foot" position, or the temperature control dial is set to the "MAX A/C" position. In other dial positions, when the air conditioning switch is turned on, the air conditioning will work.
