Using Automatic Climate Control

The AUTO indicator will go off, but functions
unrelated to the button/icon that was pressed will be
controlled automatically.
During idle-stops, air-conditioning is suspended, and

visual alert even if a vehicl e is in the ACC with LSF range.
ACC with LSF stays on unless you cancel it . Once you release the accelerator pedal,
the system resumes the set speed.
There are times when the vehicle speed will decrease when the accelerator pedal is
lightly applied.
