AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM


  1. OUTLINE


    1. Both manual and automatic air conditioning systems are available.

    2. The automatic air conditioning system uses left and right independent temperature control and neural network control to enhance comfort.

    3. An inside-and-outside dual air layer type air conditioning unit is provided depending on the model.

    4. HFC-134a refrigerant is used.

    5. The automatic air conditioning system uses driver, front passenger and rear passenger* independent temperature control to enhance comfort.

      *: Models with 3-zone control

  3. MAIN FEATURES


    1. The air conditioning system has the following features:

      High Performance

      • Neural network control is used so passengers can finely control the air conditioning for maximum comfort.

      • A high efficiency type clean air filter, which has a pollen-and-odor removal effect, is used.

      • The blower control has 7 steps to allow precise control.

      • Using the following features of the compressor (continuously variable capacity compressor), high cooling performance and a quiet cabin have been achieved:


        • Oil Separator

        • Variable Suction Side Throttle

        • Solenoid Valve with Built-in Crank Chamber to Suction Passage (CS) Valve
      Lightweight

      • An air conditioning harness assembly with a built-in communication/driver IC is used in a lightweight wire harness design to allow a reduced number of wires.

      • The use of this type of connector means that pulse pattern type servo motors can be used.
      Others

      The following parts are used to ensure high cooling performance while realizing a compact and lightweight construction.


      • Semi-center Location Air Conditioning Unit

      • Beneficial Refrigerant Stream (BRS) Evaporator

      • Straight Flow Aluminum (SFA)-II Heater Radiator Sub-assembly

      • Global Inner-fin Condenser (GIC) Sub-cool Condenser
