■Using automatic mode

Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and the ambient conditions. Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow immediately after the “AUTO” button is pressed.

■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 power switch

is turned to ON mode.

●It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pressing

■After pressing

The selection frame will automatically move to the fan speed display.

■Fogging up of the windows

●The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high. Pressing “A/C” button on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the windshield effectively.

●If you turn “A/C” button off, the windows may fog up more easily. ●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

to the recirculated air mode. This is effective in preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling operation, setting the recircu- lated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.

●Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the

temperature setting or the inside temperature.

■Outside temperature display

In the following situations, the correct out- side temperature may not be displayed, or the display may take longer than normal to change. ●When stopped, or driving at low speeds

(less than 16 mph [25 km/h])

●When

the outside

temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)

■When the outside temperature is low

The dehumidification function may not operate even when “A/C” button is pressed.

■Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode

●In the Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to

prioritize fuel efficiency • Engine speed and compressor operation controlled to restrict heating/

cooling capacity

• Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected

●To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations

• Adjust the fan speed • Turn off Eco drive mode • Customize the air conditioning control of Eco drive mode. (P. 579)

■Ventilation and air conditioning odors

●To let 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.

●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.

WARNING

■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 mirror defoggers are on.

NOTICE

■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge

Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessary when the hybrid system is off.
