LS460/LS460L_GE (OM50G06E)
■Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode
●In the Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to priori-
tize fuel efficiency
• Engine speed and compressor operation controlled to restrict heating/cooling
capacity
• Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected
●To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations
• Adjust the fan speed
• Turn off Eco drive mode
■Using the automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically in accordance with the temperature setting and
ambient conditions. As a result, the following may occur:
●Immediately after the “AUTO” switch is pressed, the fan may stop for a while until
warm or cool air is ready to flow.
●Cool air may flow to the area around the upper body when the heater is on.
■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high. Selecting
“A/C” on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the windshield effec-
tively.
●If you turn “A/C” off, the windows may fog up more easily.
●The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the outside/
recirculated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effective in pre-
venting outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling operation, set-
ting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the tem-
perature setting or the inside temperature.

CAUTION
■Burns/excessive cooling
●Use caution when seating the following persons in a seat to avoid the possibility of
burns or excessive cooling:
• Babies, small children, elderly persons, sick persons and persons with a physi-
cal disability
• Persons who have sensitive skin
• Persons who are fatigued
• Persons who have taken alcohol or drugs which induce sleep, such as sleeping
drugs and cold remedies
●Do not cover the seat with anything when using the climate control seat or seat
heater. Using the climate control seat or seat heater with a blanket or cushion
may increase or decrease the temperature of the seat, resulting in overheating or
overcooling.
●Do not use the climate control seat or seat heater more than necessary. Doing so
may cool the occupants excessively or may cause minor burns or overheating.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the climate control seat and seat heater
Do not put heavy objects that have an uneven surface on the seat and do not stick
sharp objects, such as needles and nails, into the seat.
■To prevent the battery from being discharged
Do not leave the system on longer th an necessary when the engine is off.
