after the Automatic mode switch is pressed.

■

When the outside temperature exceeds 75



F (24



C) and the air conditioning system

is on

●

In order to reduce the air conditioning power consumption, the air conditioning system

lated air mode switch.

●

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

■

When driving on dusty roads

Close all windows. If dust thrown up by the vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle after clos-

ing the windows, it is recommended that the air intake mode be set to outside air mode

and the fan speed to any setting except off.

■

Outside/recirculated air mode

●

Setting to the recirculated air mode temporarily is recommended 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 tempera-

ture setting or the inside temperature.
