●The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.


■Outside/recirculated air mode


When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the out- side/recirculated air mode to the recirculated air mode. This is effective in preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling opera- tion, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effec- tively.


■When the outside temperature exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air condition-


ing system is on ●In order to reduce the air conditioning power consumption, the air condition- ing system may switch to recirculated air mode automatically. This may also reduce fuel consumption.


●Recirculated air mode is selected as a default mode when the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key system) or the engine switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system).

■When the outside temperature falls to nearly 32F (0C)


The dehumidification function may not operate even when


is pressed.


■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.


CAUTION


■To prevent the windshield from fogging up


●Do not use


during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The difference between the temperature of the outside air and that of the windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, block- ing your vision.


●Do not place anything on the instrument panel which may cover the air outlets. Otherwise, air flow may be obstructed, preventing the windshield defoggers from defogging.


■To prevent burns


●Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mir-


ror defoggers are on.


●Do not touch the glass at lower part of the windshield or to the side of the


front pillars when the windshield wiper de-icer is on.


NOTICE

CAUTION


■Using a power outlet


Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury. ●Use of the power outlet when it is wet with water or snow may result in electrical shocks and is extremely dangerous. The power outlet must be thoroughly dried before use.


●Do not allow children to use or play with the power outlet. ●Be careful not to get any part of your body caught in the power outlet lid. ●When using electrical appliances, strictly follow any cautions and notices


written on their labels and in the manufacturers' instruction manuals.


●Do not modify, disassemble or repair the power outlet or its inverter in any way. Doing so may result in unexpected malfunctions or accidents, which could cause serious damage or injuries. Contact your Toyota dealer for any necessary repairs.


■To prevent injuries and accidents, secure all electric appliances before


use and do not use any appliances that may do any of the following: ●Distract the driver while driving, or hamper safe driving. ●Result in a fire or burn injuries due to the appliance rolling, falling or over-


heating while driving.


●Emit steam while the windows of the cabin are closed.


■To prevent unexpected accidents, such as electric shocks, do not per-


form any of the following actions: ●Using the power outlet for electric heaters while sleeping. ●Contaminating the power outlet with liquid substances or mud. ●Handling electrical appliance plugs at the power outlet with wet hands or


feet.


●Inserting foreign objects into the power outlet. ●Using malfunctioning electric appliances. ●Inserting inappropriate or badly fitting plugs into the power outlet.

NOTICE


■To avoid damaging the power outlet and the plug


●Close the power outlet lid when not in use. ●Do not allow foreign objects or liquids to enter the power outlet, as this


may cause a short circuit.


●Do not use plug adaptors to connect too many plugs to the power outlet. ●After removing a plug, gently close the power outlet lid.


■To prevent the fuse from being blown


Do not use a 120 V AC appliance that requires more than the maximum capacity of the power outlet. If a 120 V AC appliance that consumes more than the maximum capacity is used, the protection circuit will cut the power supply.


■Appliances that may not operate properly (120 V AC)


The following 120 V AC appliances may not operate even if their power con- sumption is under maximum capacity. ●Appliances with high initial peak wattage ●Measuring devices that process precise data. ●Other appliances that require an extremely stable power supply


■To prevent battery discharge


Turn off all the vehicle's electronic equipment and accessories, such as the headlights and air conditioning, when electrical appliances that consume in excess of 100 W are used continuously for long periods of time.


■To prevent any damage caused by heat


●Do not use any electrical appliances that give off intense heat, such as toasters, in any locations including the internal or external trim, seats and deck.


●Do not use any electrical appliances that are easily affected by vibration or heat inside the vehicle. Vibration while driving, or the heat of the sun while parking, may result in damage to those electrical appliances.

■If the power outlet is loose when an electrical appliance plug is con-


nected Replace the outlet. Contact your Toyota dealer for any necessary replace- ments.


■If the power outlet gets dirty
