Outside air is allowed to enter the
cabin. Use this mode for ventilation or
windscreen defrosting.
WARNING
Do not use the position in cold or
rainy weather:
Using the

weather is dangerous as it will cause
the windows to fog up. Your vision will
be hampered, which could lead to a
serious accident.
Operation of Automatic Air
Conditioning
1. Set the mode selector dial to the AUTO
position.

restrict airfl ow until it has warmed to
prevent cold air from blowing out of
the vents.
(European model) For an optimal cabin temperature,
set the temperature close to “22.0”.
Adjust to the desired temperature if
necessary.
(Except European model) For an optimal cabin temperature,
set the temperature close to “25.0”.
