The indicator light “ ” on the control panel comes on when this switch is pushed. n Temperature control dial HB4033BB NOTE D A setting of about 77°F (25°C) throughout the year is recom- mended. D The temperature setting remains even after the ignition switch is turned to the “OFF”. However, if the battery cables are discon- nected, the temperature will be set to 77°F (25°C) automatically. Set desired temperature by turning the temperature control dial; turn the dial clockwise to raise the temperature setting and turn it counter- clockwise to lower it. The temperature can be set in increments of 1°F within a range of 65 – 85°F for US models and in increments of 0.5°C within a range of 18 – 32°C for Canadian models. Even when quick cooling or warming is necessary, you do not have to change the temperature setting. The Automatic Climate Control sys- tem operates at maximum performance until the air in the passenger compartment reaches to the specified temperature. 4-18 Legacy U.S.A..(ENG.)A2290BE–A Climate control B Temperature sensors This Automatic Climate Control system employs the several sensors. These are very delicate parts. Therefore, if these sensors are dam- aged, it is possible that the Automatic Climate Control system will not properly control the air temperature in the passenger compartment. To prevent possible damage to the sensors, please observe the fol- lowing: – Do not allow anything to impact the sensors. – Be careful not to let water contact the sensors. – Do not cover the sensors. The sensors are found at the following locations: – Sun-load sensor (beside the windshield defroster grille) – In-vehicle temperature sensor (beside the temperature control dial.) – Ambient sensor (at the backside of the front grille) HB5024BB HB4034BB – CONTINUED – 4-19 Legacy U.S.A..(ENG.)A2290BE–A Operating tips for heater and air conditioner B Cleaning ventilator grille HB5019BC Always keep the front ventilator inlet grille free of snow, leaves, or oth- er obstructions to ensure efficient heating and defrosting. Since the condenser is located in front of the radiator, this area should be kept clean because cooling performance is impaired by any accumulation of insects and leaves on the condenser. B Efficient cooling after parking in direct sunlight After parking in direct sunlight, drive with the windows open for a few minutes to allow outside air to circulate into the heated interior. This results in quicker cooling by the air conditioner. Keep the windows closed during the operation of the air conditioner for maximum cool- ing efficiency. B Lubrication oil circulation in the refrigerant circuit Operate the air conditioner compressor at a low engine speed (at idle or low driving speeds) a few minutes each month during the off-sea- son to circulate its oil. B Checking air conditioning system before summer season Check the air conditioner unit for refrigerant leaks, hose conditions, and proper operation each spring. This check is best performed by your SUBARU dealer. 4-20 4 Legacy U.S.A..(ENG.)A2290BE–A Climate control B Cooling and dehumidifying in high humidity and low tempera- ture weather condition Under certain weather conditions (high relative humidity, low tempera- tures, etc.) a small amount of water vapor emission from the air outlets may be noticed. This condition is normal and does not indicate any problem with the air conditioning system. B Air conditioner compressor shut-off when engine is heavily loaded To improve acceleration and gas mileage, the air conditioner com- pressor is designed to temporarily shut off during air conditioner op- eration whenever the accelerator is fully depressed such as during rapid accerelation or when driving on a steep upgrade. B Refrigerant for your climate control system Your air conditioner uses ozone friendly refrigerant HFC134a. There- fore, the method of adding, changing or checking the refrigerant is different from the method for CFC12 (freon). Consult your SUBARU dealer for service. Repairs needed as a result of using the wrong refrigerant are not covered under warranty. Air filtration system (if equipped) If your vehicle’s air conditioning system is equipped with a optional air filtration system, replace the filter element according to the replacement schedule shown below. This schedule should be followed to maintain the filter’s dust collection ability. Under extremely dusty conditions, the filter should be replaced more frequently. Since the filter element is a viscous type, it is unnecessary to clean or wash the element. Have your filter checked or replaced by your SUBARU dealer. Replacement schedule: Every 12 months or 9,300 miles (15,000 km) whichever comes first NOTE The filter can influence the air conditioning, heating and defroster performance. – CONTINUED – 4-21 Legacy U.S.A..(ENG.)A2290BE–A Audio . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
