  1. VEHICLE CHECK ITEMS

    Tip:
    • You can reduce the number of systems to check by using the results of the following operation check

    • Perform the following checks based on Customer Feedback and the vehicle condition.

    • The customer's opinion may not be consistent with the actual problem (eg: the cooling performance of the air conditioner is bad → actually, the wind volume is weak). It is important to check the problem symptoms accurately and judge correctly based on various sources of information.

    • Judgment as to whether the air conditioner panel is normal or abnormal can be judged by checking if the indicator illuminates or turns off when the switch is operated.

    • During servo motor initialization, the AUTO indicator light comes on, and then goes off when initialization has finished.

    • If the performance of the air conditioner is poor or there is a foul odor, check for clogging in the clean air filter.
