WARNING
●The air conditioner cooling function op-
erates only when the engine is running.
●Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the assistance
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should also not be left alone. They
could accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation of
the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
●Do not use the recirculation mode for
long periods as it may cause the interior
air to become stale and the windows to
fog up.

HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER
(automatic)
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-47
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.
●Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit. Odor
can enter the passenger compartment
through the vents.
●When parking, set the heater and air condi-
tioner controls to turn off air recirculation to
allow fresh air into the passenger compart-
ment. This should help reduce odors inside
the vehicle.
AUTOMATIC OPERATION
Cooling and/or dehumidified heating
(AUTO)
This mode may be used all year round as the
system automatically works to keep a constant
temperature. Air flow distribution, intake air con-
trol, and fan speed are also controlled automati-
cally.
1. Press the AUTO button on. (The indicator on
the button will illuminate and AUTO will be
displayed.)
2. Operate the driver’s side temperature con-
trol buttons.
●Adjust the temperature display to about
75°F (24°C) for normal operation.●The temperature of the passenger compart-
ment will be maintained automatically. Air
flow distribution, intake air control, and fan
speed are also controlled automatically.
●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
malfunction.
Dehumidified defrosting or defogging
1. Press thefront defroster button on.
(The indicator light on the button will come
on.)
2. Operate the temperature control buttons to
set the desired temperature.
●To quickly remove ice from the outside of the
windows, use the fan speed control dial to
set the fan speed to maximum.
●As soon as possible after the windshield is
clean, press the AUTO button to return to
the automatic mode.●When the
front defroster button is
pressed, the air conditioner will automati-
cally be turned on at outside temperatures
above 36°F (2°C) . The air recirculate mode
automatically turns off, allowing outside air
to be drawn into the passenger compart-
ment to further improve the defogging per-
formance.
MANUAL OPERATION
Fan speed control
Press the fan control buttonsto manually
control the fan speed.
Press the AUTO button to return to automatic
control of the fan speed.
Temperature control
Press the temperature control buttons up or

The air recirculation cannot be activated when
the air conditioner is in the
front defrosting
mode or the
front defrosting and foot out-
let mode.
Automatic intake air control
In the AUTO mode, the intake air will be con-
trolled automatically. To manually control the in-
take air, press the
air recirculation button.
To return to the automatic control mode, press
and hold the
air recirculation button for
about 2 seconds. The indicator light will flash
twice, and then the intake air will be controlled
automatically.
Air flow control
Press thebutton to manually control air
flow. Pressing the button repeatedly will cycle

vents and foot outlets.
— Air flows mainly from foot outlets.
— Air flows from defroster and foot
outlets.
— Air flows from defroster outlets.
To turn system off
Press the OFF button.
OPERATING TIPS
●When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air flow
from the foot outlets may not operate for a
maximum of 150 seconds. However, this is
not a malfunction. After the coolant tempera-
ture warms up, air flow from the foot outlets
will operate normally.The sunload sensor, located on the top driver’s
side of the instrument panel, helps the system
maintain a constant temperature. Do not put any-
thing on or around this sensor.

not work properly.
●This procedure is not recommended if win-
dows fog up.
When the outside temperature decreases to ap-
proximately 32°F (0°C) , the A/C function does
not activate even if the “A/C” indicator light illu-

Advanced Climate Control System
(ACCS) (if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System (ACCS)
keeps the air inside of the vehicle clean, using the
ion control and the automatic air intake control
with exhaust gas detecting sensor.
LHA2167

Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated Plasma-
cluster™ ions into the air blown from the vents
and reduces odor absorbed into the interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the system
generates Plasmacluster™ ions automatically.
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 indication in the
screen changes to
.
Plasmacluster™ and Plasmacluster™ ion are reg-
istered trademarks of Sharp Corporation.Exhaust gas/outside odor detection sen-
sor:
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust gas
detection sensor. When the automatic intake air
control is ON, the sensor detects industry odors
such as pulp or chemicals, and exhaust gas such
as gasoline or diesel. When such odors or gas
are detected, the system automatically changes
from the outside air circulation mode to the recir-
culation mode.
When the intake air control button is pushed
under the following conditions, the indicator light
on the
button will illuminate and the ex-
haust gas detection sensor will turn on.
●The air flow control is not in the front de-
froster mode (the indicator light on
the
front defroster button is turned
off) .
●The outside temperature is about 32°F (0°C)
or more.
When the automatic intake air control is ON, for
the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode is
selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from
entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of
the vehicle with positive and negative ions that
are emitted from the vent.After the 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust
gas and automatically alternates between the
recirculation mode and outside air circulation
mode.
