HEATING, VENTILATION, AND AIR CONDITIONING INDICATOR FOR TEMPERATURE AND FAN ADJUSTMENTS AND METHODS THEREOF

This disclosure describes a system and method for displaying an indicator when temperature and fan adjustments occur which may cause passengers potential discomfort. Discomfort may be caused by deviations of expected air temperature, fan speed, or both. For example, when a desired temperature is set to seventy-two degrees Fahrenheit (72° F.), colder air at sixty degrees Fahrenheit (60° F.) may be used to bring down the temperature within the vehicle which may be at ninety degrees Fahrenheit (90° F.). The temperature difference between the desired temperature of seventy-two degrees Fahrenheit (72° F.) and the incoming air at sixty degrees Fahrenheit (60° F.) may be above a threshold comfort level, such as two degrees Fahrenheit (2° F.). When this happens, the system may provide the indicator to the passengers. Indicators for a fan speed may also be shown when discomfort may exist. Through these indicators, the passengers may recognize that the threshold for comfort has been exceeded.
