INFORMATION
During use, various odors from in-
side and outside the vehicle may
enter into and accumulate in the air

then cause odor to be emitted from
the vents.
To reduce potential odors from oc-
curring:
It is recommended that the air
conditioning system be set to
OUTSIDE AIR mode prior to turn-
ing the vehicle off.
The start timing of the blower
may be delayed for a short peri-
od of time immediately after the

started in automatic control
mode.

gine is stopped.
By pushing the switch above, you can
