5-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
■
Outside/recirculated air mode
●
Setting to the recirculated air
mode temporarily is recom-
mended in preventing dirty air
from entering the vehicle interior
and helping to cool the vehicle
when the outside air temperature
is high.
●
Outside/recirculated air mode may
automatically switch depending on
the temperature setting or the
inside temperature.
When the outside temperature
■
falls to nearly 32°F (0°C)
The dehumidification function may
not operate even when "A/C" switch
is pressed.
■
Ventilation and air conditioning
odors
●
To let fresh air in, set the air condi-
tioning 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, the air flow mode
may change to blow air to the feet
or air may stop blowing for a short
period of time immediately after
the air conditioning system is
started in automatic mode.
●
When parking, the system auto-
matically switches to outside air
mode to encourage better air cir-
culation throughout the vehicle,
helping to reduce odors that occur
when starting the vehicle.
