Winter driving tips
●Use fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside temperatures. •Engine oil
• Engine/power control unit coolant
•Washer fluid
●Have a service technician inspect the condition of the 12-volt battery.
●Have the vehicle fitted with four snow tires or purchase a set of tire chains for
the rear tires.
*
Ensure that all tires are the specified size and brand, and that chains match the size
of the tires.
*: Tire chains cannot be mounted on vehicles with front and rear tires of differing sizes and vehicles with LDH and 19 inch tires
Perform the following according to the driving conditions:
●Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen. Pour
warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away the water imme-
diately to prevent it from freezing.
●To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan, remove any
snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in front of the windshield.
●Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accumulated on
the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis, around the tires or on the brakes.
●Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before getting in the

■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 produc t in the EU according to the interpre-
tation of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
Active substances: Charged water particles (nano) containing hydroxyl radicals, gener-
ated 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
*2.
●When the fan is turned on an d “nanoe” on the option control screen is selected, the
nanoe  system is activated.
●When the fan is operated in the following conditions, system performance will be maxi-
mized. 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 op eration. This is not a malfunction.

*2: According to temperature and humidity conditions, fan speed and direction of the
air flow, the nanoe  system may not operate at full capacity.
