Remote Climate Control
WARNING
!
The Remote Climate Control, even when set, cannot
be relied upon to maintain safe vehicle cabin tem-
peratures while the vehicle is stopped or parked.
Never leave children or persons requiring supervi-
sion/nursing unattended inside the vehicle. Temper-
ature inside the vehicle could become extremely high
or low resulting in a risk of heat stroke or hyper-
thermia that could result in death.
In addition, children can activate switches and con-
trols, resulting in an injury or fatal accident.
While the Remote Climate Control is activated, keep
away from the cooling fan under the front hood,
since the cooling fan may automatically operate
even if the electric motor switch is in the "LOCK"
position.
NOTE
The Remote Climate Control works regardless the posi-
N01204200012
tion of the air conditioning switch or dial on the vehicle.
While the Remote Climate Control is activated, the air
conditioning switch or dial on the vehicle will not affect
operation of the cooler, heater or defroster.
The Remote Climate Control will automatically stop 30
minutes after the Remote Climate Control has been set.
The Remote Climate Control is operated by electric power
supplied through the EV charging cable (regular charger).
Under the following conditions, the effect of the Remote
Climate Control can be decreased.
• When the outside temperature is very high.
• When the sunlight is strong.
• When the outside temperature is very low.
When Remote Climate Control is activated while charg-
ing the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery, the time required
to fully charge the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery will
become longer or the amount of charge may decrease if
the OFF timer has been set.
If the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery Warming System
(if so equipped) is operated while the Remote Climate
Control is activated, the Remote Climate Control will
stop. When the Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery Warming
System stops, the Remote Climate Control will resume.
Refer to "Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery Warming Sys-
tem" on page 1-26.
While the Remote Climate Control is activated, if a heated
seat switch is ON, the heated seat will operate.
