Ventilation and air conditioning odors
To let the fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.
During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
In order to suppress odors that occur when the air conditioning system
starts, fresh air is automatically taken in when parked.
To reduce potential odors from occurring, the start timing of the blower may
be delayed for a short period of time immediately after the air conditioning
system is started in automatic mode.
