■
To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.

●
mulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to be emitted from the
vents.

nanoe system (if equipped)
■
The air conditioning system adopts nanoe technology. This helps to fill the cabin with
refreshing air by emitting slightly acidic nanoe ions coated with water particles through
the front center vent on driver's side
When the fan is turned on and nanoe on the option control screen is selected, the
●
nanoe system is activated.
When the fan is operated in the following conditions, system performance will be maxi-
●
mized. If the following conditions are not met, performance will be limited.
• The
• The front center vent on driver's side is open.
When nanoe is generated, a small amount of ozone is emitted and may be faintly
●
smelled in some situations. However, this is approximately the same as the amount that
already exists in nature, such as in forests, and it has no affect on the human body.
A slight noise may be heard during operation. This is not a malfunction.
