ting and ambient conditions. As a result, the following may occur.

warm or cool air is ready to flow.

Cool air may flow to the area around the upper body when the heater is

Using the recirculated air mode

The windows will fog up more easily if the recirculated air mode is used for
an extended period.

Switching between outside air and recirculated air modes

Recirculated air mode or outside air mode may be automatically switched to
in accordance with the temperature setting and the inside temperature.

Window defogger feature

Recirculated air mode may automatically switch to outside air mode in situa-
tions where the windows need to be defogged.

When outside air temperature approaches 32°F (0°C)

The air conditioning system may not operate even when

is pressed.

When

is selected for the air outlets used

For your driving comfort, air flowing to the feet may be warmer than air flow-
ing to the upper body depending on the temperature setting.

Air conditioning odors

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.

To reduce potential odors from occurring:

• It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air

mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

• 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.
