AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL (Type B)
Automatic operation (AUTO)
The AUTO mode may be used year-round as the
system automatically controls constant tem-
perature, air flow distribution and fan speed
after the desired temperature is set manually.
To turn off the heater and air conditioner, push
the “OFF” button.
Cooling and dehumidified heating:
1. Push the “AUTO” button.
(The AUTO indicator light will illuminate
and “AUTO” will appear on the display.)
2. If the A/C indicator light does not illumi- nate, push the “A/C” button.
(The A/C indicator light will illuminate.)
3. Turn the temperature control dial (driver’s side) to set the desired temperature.
●The temperature can be set within the
following range.
– For U.S.: 60 to 90°F (16 to 32°C)
– For Canada: 64 to 90°F (18 to 32°C) ●
When the DUAL indicator light is turned
off:
– Pushing the driver’s side “AUTO” but- ton changes both the driver’s and front
passenger’s side temperature.
– Pushing the passenger’s side “DUAL” button changes only the front passen-
ger’s side temperature. (The DUAL indi-
cator light will illuminate and “DUAL”
will appear on the display.)
● To set separate desired temperatures for
the driver and front passenger, push the
“DUAL” button, the indicator light illumi-
nates, and then turn the corresponding
temperature control dial.
● To cancel the separate temperature set-
ting, push the “DUAL” button, the indica-
tor light turns off, and the driver’s side
temperature setting will be applied to
both the driver’s and front passenger’s
sides.
A visible mist may be seen coming from the
ventilators in hot, humid conditions as the air is
cooled rapidly. This does not indicate a mal-
function. Heating (A/C off):
1. Push the “AUTO” button.
(The AUTO indicator light will illuminate
and “AUTO” will appear on the display.)
2. If the A/C indicator light illuminates, push the “A/C” button.
(The A/C indicator light will turn off.)
3. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.
●When the DUAL indicator light is turned
off:
– Pushing the driver’s side “AUTO” but- ton changes both the driver’s and front
passenger’s side temperature.
– Pushing the passenger’s side “DUAL” button changes only the front passen-
ger’s side temperature. (The DUAL indi-
cator light will illuminate and “DUAL”
will appear on the display.)
● To set separate desired temperatures for
the driver and front passenger, push the
“DUAL” button, the indicator light illumi-

Automatic intake air control :
In the AUTO mode, the intake air will be con-
trolled automatically. To manually control the
intake air, push the intake air control button.
To return to the automatic control mode, push
the intake air control button until the indicator
light on the “
” side illuminates. The
advanced climate control system turns on and
the intake air will be controlled automatically.
To turn system off
Push the OFF button.
Advanced climate control system
The advanced climate control system keeps the
air inside of the vehicle clean, using the ion
control and the automatic air intake control with
outside odor and exhaust gas detecting sensor. Ion control :
This unit generates highly concentrated Plas-
macluster ions into the air blown from the
ventilators and reduces odor absorbed into the
interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster ions automati-
cally.
The amount of Plasmacluster ions increases
according to the amount of air flow. When the
air flow is high, “
” is displayed on the
screen and when the air flow is low, the indica-
tion in the screen changes to “
”.
Outside odor and exhaust gas detection sensor :
This vehicle is equipped with an outside odor
and exhaust gas detection sensor. When the
automatic intake air control is ON, the sensor
detects odors and exhaust gas, and then the
system automatically changes from the outside
air circulation mode to the recirculation mode.
When the intake air control button is pushed
under the following conditions, the indicator
light on the “
” side will illuminate and the
outside odor and exhaust gas detection sensor
will turn on.

Compressed Audio Files (MP3/WMA/
AAC)
Explanation of terms :
●MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pictures
Experts Group Audio Layer 3. MP3 is the
most well known compressed digital audio
file format. This format allows for near “CD
quality” sound, but at a fraction of the size
of normal audio files. MP3 conversion of an
audio track can reduce the file size by
approximately a 10:1 ratio (Sampling: 44.1
kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with virtually no
perceptible loss in quality. The compression
reduces certain parts of sound that seem
inaudible to most people.
● WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a
compressed audio format created by Micro-
soft as an alternative to MP3. The WMA
codec offers greater file compression than
the MP3 codec, enabling storage of more
digital audio tracks in the same amount of
space when compared to MP3s at the same
level of quality.
● AAC/M4A — Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is
a lossy audio compression format. Audio
files that have been encoded with AAC are
generally smaller in size and deliver a higher
quality of sound than MP3. ●
Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number of
bits per second used by a digital music file.
The size and quality of a compressed digital
audio file is determined by the bit rate used
when encoding the file.
● Sampling frequency — Sampling frequency
is the rate at which the samples of a signal
are converted from analog to digital (A/D
conversion) per second.
● Multisession — Multisession is one of the
methods for writing data to media. Writing
data once to the media is called a single
session, and writing more than once is
called a multisession.
● ID3/WMA Tag — The ID3/WMA tag is the part
of the encoded MP3 or WMA file that con-
tains information about the digital music file
such as song title, artist, album title, encod-
ing bit rate, track time duration, etc. ID3 tag
information is displayed on the
Album/Artist/Track title line on the display.

●If there is a file in the top level of a disc/USB,
“Root Folder” is displayed.
● The playback order is the order in which the
files were written by the writing software, so
the files might not play in the desired order.
● Music playback order of compressed audio
files is as illustrated in the next figure.
