den by an object, such as a cart or
umbrella

ness, such as at night●
In some situations, such as the following,
pedestrians may not be detected by the
rear camera detection function, prevent-
ing the function from operating properly:
• When backing up in inclement weather
(rain, snow, fog, etc.)

or the headlights of another vehicle,
shines directly into the rear camera

surrounding brightness changes sud-
denly, such as at the entrance or exit of a
garage or underground parking lot
• When backing up in a dim environment
such as during dusk or in an underground
parking lot●
Even though there are no pedestrians in
the detection area, some objects, such as
the following, may be detected, possibly
causing the rear camera detection func-
tion to operate.

pole, traffic cone, fence, or parked vehi-
cle

when backing up, such as flags or pud-
dles (or airborne matter, such as smoke,
steam, rain, or snow)

area, such as the emergency flashers of
another vehicle ●
Situations in which the rear camera
detection function may be difficult to
notice

In order to prevent the windshield from fog-
ging up when the outside air is cold, the
dehumidification function may operate or
the outside/recirculat ed air mode may not
switch to (recirculated air) mode.
Pollen is filtered even if the micro dust and
pollen filter is turned off.
1 Press the automatic mode switch or
select “AUTO” on the sub function
menu. (  P.316)
2 Press the outside/recirculated air
mode switch to switch to automatic
air intake mode.The air conditioning system automatically
switches between outside air and recircu-
lated air modes.
3 Adjust the temperature setting.
4 To stop the operation, press the off
switch or select “OFF” on the sub
function menu. (  P.316)If the fan speed settin g or air flow modes
are operated, the automatic mode indica-
tor goes off. However, automatic mode for
functions other than th at operated is main-
tained.
■
Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically accord-
ing 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 immedi-
ately after the automatic mode switch is
pressed or “AUTO” is selected.
Cool air may blow around the upper body
even when the heater is on due to sunlight. ■
Automatic mode for air intake control
In automatic mode, the system detects
exhaust gas and other pollutants and auto-
matically switches between outside air and
recirculated air modes.
When the dehumidification function is off,
and the fan is operating, turning automatic
mode on will activate the dehumidification
function.
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the air-
flow is given to the front seats, reducing
the airflow and air co nditioning effect
on the rear seats. When in S-FLOW
mode, airflow from the rear air condi-
tioning system is stopped.
Operation in S-FLOW mode differs
according to the following conditions:
 Priority is given to the driver’s seat
only when:
Manual S-FLOW mode: When no
passenger is judged to be in the
front passenger seat.
Automatic S-FLOW mode: When
no passengers are judged to be in
the front passenger seat or rear
seats.
 Priority is given to the front seats
when: Manual S-FLOW mode is
selected or no passengers are
judged to be in the rear seats when
in automatic S-FLOW mode.
 S-FLOW mode will be disabled
when: A passenger is judged to be WARNING■
To prevent burns (vehicles with wind-
shield wiper de-icer)
Do not touch the glass at lower part of
the windshield or to the side of the front
pillars when the wind shield wiper de-icer
is on.
