l Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking in the hot sun will make the ve-
hicle inside extremely hot, and it will re-
quire more time to cool the interior.
If it is necessary to park in the sun, open
the windows for the first few minutes of air conditioning operation to expel the
hot air.
l Close the windows when the air condi-
tioner is in use. The entry of outside air
through open windows will reduce the cooling efficiency.
l Too much cooling is not good for the
health. Keep the difference between the
vehicle interior temperature and outside
temperature at 5 to 6 °C.
l When operating the system, make sure
the air intake, which is located in front
of the windscreen, is free of obstructions such as leaves and snow. Leaves collec- ted in the air-intake plenum may reduce
air flow and plug the plenum water
drains.
l Too much cooling/heating can affect the
EV cruising range, so maintain an appro-
priate temperature to extend the EV
cruising range.Air conditioning system refrig-
erant and lubricant recommen-dations
If the air conditioner seems less effective than usual, the cause might be a refrigerant leak.
We recommend you to have the system in-
spected.
[Except for vehicles for Russia]
The air conditioning system in your vehicle
must be charged with the refrigerant
HFO-1234yf and the lubricant POE
MA68EV.
[Vehicles for Russia]
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must be charged with the refrigerant
HFC-134a and the lubricant POE MA68EV.
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause severe damage which will result in the
need to replace your vehicle’s entire air con- ditioning system. The release of refrigerantinto the atmosphere is not recommended.
We recommend you to recover and recycle
the refrigerant for reuse.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioner should be operated for at
least five minutes each week, even in cold
weather. This is to prevent the compressor from seizing and to maintain the air condi-
tioner in the best operating condition.
Air purifier

An air filter has been incorporated into thisair conditioner so that dirt and dust are
cleaned from the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its ability
to clean the air will be reduced as it collects pollen and dirt. For the maintenance interval,
refer to the “SERVICE BOOKLET”.
NOTEl Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the air conditioner can lead to reduction of serv-
ice life of the filter. When you feel that the air flow is lower than normal or when the
windscreen or windows start to fog up easi- ly, replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked.
