Actual temperature
The temperature you select in the passenger
compartment corresponds to the physical
experience with reference to factors such as
air speed, humidity and solar radiation etc. in
and around the car.
The system includes a sun sensor (p. 117)
which detects on which side the sun is shin-
ing into the passenger compartment. This
means that the temperature can differ
between the right and left-hand air vents
despite the controls being set for the same
temperature on both sides.
