ABSTRACT:
A vehicle air conditioner includes an operating unit operated by a passenger for setting an air conditioning state in a passenger compartment, and a control unit for automatically controlling the air conditioning state in accordance with a detection value of an environment condition. The control unit performs a learning correction of a control characteristic in accordance with manual operations of the operating unit, and a number of the manual operations is indicated by using an indicator. Further, a number of the manual operations performed in an initial period and a number of the manual operations performed in an immediately recent period are comparably indicated on the indicator. Therefore, a passenger can realize the effect of the learning correction, even when the number of the manual operation is decreased after the learning correction is performed.
