5646-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
C-HR_OM_Europe_OM10528E
■Fogging up of the windows
● The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.
Pressing on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the
windshield effectively.
● If you turn 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, in tunnels, or in heavy traffic set to the
recirculated air mode. This is effective in preventing outside air from enter-
ing the vehicle interior. During cooling operation, setting the recirculated air
mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
● Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the
temperature setting or the inside temperature.
■ When the outside temperature is falls to nearly 0°C (32°F)
The dehumidification function may not operate even when is pressed.
■ Ventilation and air conditioning odors
● To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.
● During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
● To reduce potential odors from occurring:
It is recommended that the air conditi oning system be set to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

5746-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
C-HR_OM_Europe_OM10528E
■ nanoe™*1 (if equipped)
The air conditioning system adopts nanoe™ technology. This helps to fill the
cabin with refreshing air by emitting slightly acidic nanoe™ coated with water
particles through the passenger’s side vent*2.
● When the fan is turned on, nanoe™ system is activated.
● When the fan is operated in the following conditions, system performance
will be maximized. If the following conditions are not met, nanoe™ may not
operate at full capacity.
• The upper body, the upper body and feet or the feet air outlets are being
used. ( P. 561)
• The passenger’s side vent 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.
*1: nanoe™ and the nanoe™ mark are trademarks of Panasonic Corporation.
*2: According to temperature and humidity conditions, fan speed and direction
of the air flow, nanoe™ may not operate at full capacity.

NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear
due to dirt in the air.
■ If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads
wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refilling, it may indicate a serious problem.
