S-FLOW mode
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the airflow is given to the front seats,
reducing the airflow and air conditioning effect on the rear seats.
If a passenger is not detected in the front passenger seat, priority
for the airflow will be given to the driver’s seat only.
In this case, the temperature indicator for the front passenger side will
turn off.
However, air will always be blown from the side outlet of the front pas-
senger seat.
S-FLOW mode will be activated automatically according to the set
temperature, outside temperature, etc. (P. 512)
The S-FLOW mode can be turned on/off manually by pressing .
The indicator illuminates when in S-FLOW mode.

■Heating
● In HV mode, the gasoline engine may operate in order to exhaust heat from
the engine coolant via the heater.
● In EV mode, heating is done by a heat pump system.
• When the outside temperature is low or it is snowing, compared to con-
ventional vehicles, heating may be less effective and warm air may not
come out.
• If frost has formed on the outside heat exchanger, the heating perfor-
mance will decline. The frost can be removed from the outside heat
exchanger by operating the Remote Ai r Conditioning System before driv-
ing ( P. 516). When frosted over, the heating operation of the Remote
Air Conditioning System starts after defrosting.
• When is turned on, the heating is controlled optimally. Therefore,
the set heating performance may not be achieved even if the fan speed
setting is increased.
● In the following situations the gasoline engine may operate in order to
exhaust heat from the engine coolant via the heater even in EV mode.
• The outside temperature is approximately -10°C or low
• is operating
■ Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and
the ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow
immediately after is pressed.
• When the outside heat exchanger is
frosted over, fan speed declines and it
may become harder to heat the inte-
rior. However, it is not a malfunction.
In this situation, the air temperature
from the outlets may not change even
though the set temperature is raised.Outside heat exchanger
