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, blocking
your vision.

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