windscreen.
If high cooling performance is desired, or
if the outside air is dusty or otherwise con-
taminated use the recirculation position.
Switch to the outside position periodically
to increase ventilation so that the win-
dows do not become fogged up.

NOTE
l Set
the temperature at about 22 under normal
conditions.
l While the engine coolant temperature is low,
the temperature of the air from the heater
will be cool/cold until the engine warms up,
even if you have selected warm air with the
dial. To prevent the windscreen and win-
dows from fogging up, the ventilator mode
will be changed to “ ”
and the blower
speed will be reduced.
l If the blower speed selection dial, air condi-
tioning switch, mode selection dial, or air se-
lection switch is operated while the system is
operating in the AUTO mode, the activated
function overrides the corresponding func-
tion of automatic control. All other functions
remain under automatic control.
Operating the system in manual air
mode E00704200011
Blower speed and ventilator mode may be control-
led

manually by setting the blower speed selection
dial and the mode selection dial to the desired posi-
tions. To return to automatic operation, set the dials
to the “AUTO” position.
Demisting of the windscreen and door windows E00704300546CAUTION

this setting to keep the windscreen and door
windows clear of mist, and to keep the leg area heat-
ed (when driving in rain or snow). 1. Set
the air selection switch (A) to the outside
position.
2. Set the mode selection dial to the “ ” posi-
tion.
3. Select

your desired blower speed by turning
the blower speed selection dial.

Operating the system in manual mode
E00706900067Set the blower speed selection switch (A) and tem-
perature
control lever (B) as desired. If the system
is operating in the AUTO mode, the new settings
will override automatic control. Important operation tips for the
air conditioning E00708300658
l Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking

in the hot sun will make the vehicle
inside extremely hot, and it will require more
time to cool the interior.
If it is necessary to park in the sun, open the
windows for the first few minutes of air con-
ditioning operation to expel the hot air.
l Close the windows when the air conditioning
is in use. The entry of outside air through
open windows will reduce the cooling effi-
ciency.
l Too much cooling is not good for the health.
The inside air temperature should only be 5
to 6 °C below the outside air temperature.
l When operating the system, make sure the
air intake, which is located in front of the
windscreen, is free of obstructions such as
leaves and snow. Leaves collected in the air-
intake plenum may reduce air flow and plug
the plenum water drains.
Air conditioning system refrigerant
and lubricant recommendations
If the air conditioning seems less effective than usu-
al, the cause might be a refrigerant leak. We recom-
mend you to have the system inspected.
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must
be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the
lubricant SUN-PAG56.
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause
severe damage which will result in the need to re-
place your vehicle’s entire air conditioning system.
The release of refrigerant into the atmosphere
should be prevented. It is recommended that the refrigerant be recovered
and recycled for further use.
During a long period of disuse
The
air conditioning should be operated for at least
five minutes each week, even in cold weather. This
is to prevent poor lubrication of the compressor in-
ternal parts and to maintain the air conditioning in
the best operating condition. For pleasant driving

Air purifier (with deodorizing
function)* E00708400587
An
air filter is incorporated into the air condition-
ing system to remove pollen, dust, tobacco smells
and exhaust smells.
The air filter’s ability to collect pollen and dirt is re-
duced as it becomes dirty, so replace it periodical-
ly. For the maintenance interval, refer to the “SERV-
ICE BOOKLET”.
NOTE
l Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the
air conditioning can lead to reduction of serv-
ice life of the filter. When the air flow rate
suddenly drops or when the windscreen or
windows start to fog up easily, the air filter
requires replacement. We recommend you to
have it checked. For pleasant driving
