■nanoe *1 system (if equipped)
Your vehicle incorporates a nanoe
™ device, which is considered a biocidal product.
The nanoe™ device generates charged water particles from the ambient air and
these purify the air in the cabin by suppressing bacteria.
The nanoe™ device is considered a biocidal product in the EU according to the
interpretation of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
Active substances: Charged water particles (nano) containing hydroxyl radicals,
generated from ambient air
nanoe™ helps to provide purified air by emitting electrically charged water particles
through the front center vent on the driver’s side

maximized. If the following conditions are not met, performance will be limited.
• The , or air outlets are being used.
• The front center vent on driver’s side is open.
●When nanoe  is generated, a small amount of ozone is emitted and may be faintly
smelled in some situations. However, this is approximately the same as the amount
that already exists in nature, such as in forests, and it has no affect on the human
body.
●A slight noise may be heard during operation. This is not a malfunction.
