NOTE
l
If a problem is detected in the air condition-
ing system, the air conditioning operation in-
dication lamp (A) blinks. Press the air condi-
tioning switch once to turn it off, then once
more to turn it back on. If the air condition-
ing operation indication lamp (A) does not
blink for a while, there is nothing wrong. If it
starts to blink again, we recommend you to
have it checked.
l Sometimes, for example after using a high-
pressure car wash, the condenser can get wet,
and the operation indication lamp (A) blinks
temporarily. In this case there is nothing
wrong. Wait a while, press the air condition-
ing switch once to turn the system off, then
once more to turn it back on. Once the water
evaporates, the blinking will stop.
