Embodiments of the present invention provide a method of controlling a vehicle climate system having a plurality of zones, wherein the plurality of zones includes a primary zone for a driver of the vehicle and one or more secondary zones for one or more passengers of the vehicle, the method comprising determining whether one or more of the plurality of zones is occupied by a person, wherein said determining comprises determining if one or more of the secondary zones is occupied by a person, receiving data indicative of a target temperature of each of the occupied zones, receiving data indicative of a target temperature in the primary zone, determining when one or more of the occupied zones becomes unoccupied, and adjusting the target temperature of one or more of the unoccupied zones to an adjusted target temperature. The adjusted target temperature is a function of the target temperature in the primary zone, wherein the adjusted target temperature is either substantially equal to the target temperature in the primary zone plus or minus a predetermined constant or substantially equal to the target temperature in the primary zone multiplied by a predetermined factor. |
