Outside Air Temperature Sensor
This sensor is located in the air intake under the front
bumper of the vehicle. Information from this sensor 
is used for the outside air temperature readings 
shown on the digital display for the automatic climate
control system.
If the outside temperature goes up, the displayed
temperature will not change until:
D The vehicle’s speed is above 16 mph (26 km/h) for
one and a half minutes.
D The vehicle’s speed is above 45 mph (72 km/h) for
one minute.
These delays help prevent false readings. If the
temperature goes down, the outside temperature display
is updated immediately.
If the vehicle has been turned off for more than three
hours, the current outside temperature will be shown
when you start the vehicle. If it has been turned off for
less than three hours, the temperature will be recalled
from the previous vehicle operation.
Inside Temperature Sensor
This sensor is located to the left of the ignition switch.
The automatic climate control system uses this sensor to
receive information, so if you block or cover it, the
system will not function properly.
Air Conditioning
On very hot days, the vehicle will cool down more
quickly and economically if you open the windows long
enough to let hot inside air escape. Then keep the
windows closed in order to allow the air conditioning to
work best. Maximum cooling will occur when the
recirculate setting is operating, airflow direction is in the
upper mode, and the temperature knob (on a manual
climate control system) is turned all the way to the blue
area. These settings will be selected by the automatic
electronic dual climate control system if operating in
AUTO when maximum cooling is required.
When the air conditioning is on, you may 
sometimes notice slight changes in the vehicle’s engine
performance and power. This is normal. The system is
designed to help fuel economy while maintaining the
desired cooling level.
The air conditioning removes moisture from the air, 
so you may notice water dripping from under the 
vehicle when it is idling or after it has been turned off.
This is normal.
