SAA3670
Advanced climate control system (if so
equipped)
The advanced climate control system keeps the
air inside of the vehicle clean, using the ion
control and the automatic air intake control with
exhaust gas detecting sensor.
Push the “
AUTO” auto-recirculation button
(the indicator light on the “AUTO” auto-
recirculation button will illuminate) to activate the
ion control and the automatic air intake control.
Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated Plas-
macluster
Šions into the air blown from the
ventilators and reduces odor absorbed into the
Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-57

4-58Monitor, heater, air conditioner, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster
Šions automa-
tically.
“The high-density Plasmacluster
Šions gener-
ated in the air conditioner’s air stream not only
suppress airborne bacteria and reduce the
adherence of odors to the interior trim, but also
have a proven skin moisture preserving effect.”
The amount of Plasmacluster
Šions increases
according to the amount of air flow. When the air
flow is high, “
”*Ais displayed on the
screen and when the air flow is low, the
indication in the screen changes to “
”*B.
PlasmaclusterŠand PlasmaclusterŠions are
registered trademark of Sharp corporation.
Automatic air intake control with exhaust
gas/outside odor detection sensor:
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust gas
detection sensor. When the automatic air intake
control is activated, the sensor detects industry
odors such as pulp or chemicals, and exhaust
gas such as gasoline or diesel. When such
odors or gas are detected, “
”*Cwill
appear on the display and the system auto-
matically changes from the outside air circulation
mode to the recirculation mode.
The automatic air intake control can be activated when the “
AUTO” auto-recirculation button
is pushed (the indicator light on the “AUTO”
auto-recirculation button will illuminate) under
the following conditions.
. The air flow control is not in the front
defroster mode (the indicator light on the
front defroster“
FRONT” button is
turned off).
. The outside temperature is about 328 F
(08C) or above.
When the automatic air intake control is ON, for
the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode is
selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from
entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of
the vehicle with positive and negative ions that
are emitted from the ventilator.
After 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust gas
and automatically alternates between the recir-
culation mode and outside air circulation mode.
Turning the system off
Push the “ON·OFF” button.

In this state, the rear air conditioning system can
be adjusted with the front air conditioner control
panel. However, if no operation is conducted for
approximately 10 seconds after the “REAR”
button is pushed, the front air conditioner
control panel will automatically switch to the
front air conditioning mode.
To cancel the rear air conditioning mode and
switch back to the front air conditioning mode,
push “REAR” button one more time.
