quick circulation of cooled air is de-
sired, select this mode.

will take fresh outside air into the ve-
hicle.
For normal use, it is best to keep the air in-
take control button set to OUTSIDE AIR

heating, the windows will fog up more easi-
ly.
In the following cases, the RECIRCU-
LATED AIR mode may change to the OUT-

interior fog.
When the outside temperature be-
comes lower than 41

If the system is used for ventilation, heat-
ing in dry weather or removing frost or ex-
terior fog on the windshield, turn the air
conditioning off once it is no longer re-
quired. This will improve fuel economy.
The air conditioning can be used for year −

CAUTION
To prevent the windshield from fog-
ging up, do not use the windshield air
flow button during cool air operation
in extremely humid weather. The dif-
ference between the temperature of
the outside air and that of the wind-
shield can cause the outer surface of
the windshield to fog up, blocking
your vision.
