Door locks

NOTE
. When defogging the windshield
using the remote climate control sys-
tem, defogging may be insufficient due
to the power being restricted more than
during normal climate control opera-
tion. Also, the outside of the windshield
may fog up due to the outside tempera-
ture, humidity or climate control set
temperature.
. When the outside heat exchanger
becomes frosted over, heating perfor-
mance may decline due to automati-
cally switching to the frost removal
operation.
. Any unlocked doors will be automa-
tically locked when the system is
operating. The buzzer sounds and the
hazard warning flashers flash to indi-
cate that the doors have been locked or
the system has been turned off.
(The doors locked: Once; The system
turned off: Three times)
. While the remote climate control
system is operating
– Depending on the operating con-
dition of the remote climate control
system, the electric fan and electric
compressor may spin and an oper-
ating noise may be heard. However,
this does not indicate a malfunction.
– Depending on the operating con-
ditions, the electric fan and electric
compressor may operate intermit-
tently. However, this does not in-
dicate a malfunction.
– The remote climate control sys-
tem may stop operating temporarily
if other features that use electronic
equipments are in operation or if the
charge level of the 12 V battery
becomes low.
– The headlights, windshield wiper,
combination meter, etc. will not
operate while the remote climate
control system is operating.
. It is possible to use the smartphone
application to operate the remote cli-
mate control system. For details, refer

ity.
