zPark the vehicle in the shade.Parking in the hot sun will make the vehi-cle inside extremely hot, and it willrequire more time to cool the interior.If it is necessary to park in the sun, openthe windows for the first few minutes ofair conditioning operation to expel the hotair.
zClose the windows when the air condi-tioner is in use. The entry of outside airthrough open windows will reduce thecooling efficiency.zTo o m u c h c o o l i n g i s n o t g o o d f o r t h ehealth. The inside air temperature shouldonly be 5 to 6 °C below the outside airtemperature.zWhen operating the system, make sure theair intake, which is located in front of thewindscreen, is free of obstructions such asleaves and snow. Leaves collected in theair-intake plenum may reduce air flowand plug the plenum water drains.zTo o m u c h c o o l i n g / h e a t i n g c a n a f f e c t t h eEV cruising range, so maintain an appro-priate temperature to extend the EV cruis-ing range.
