■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. When in S-FLOW
mode, airflow from the rear air condit ioning system is stopped. (RX350L)
Operation in S-FLOW mode differs according to the following conditions: • Priority is given to the driver’s se at only when: Manual S-FLOW mode:
When no passenger is judged to be in the front passenger seat.
Automatic S-FLOW mode: When no passeng ers 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 disa bled when: A passenger is judged to be in a rear
seat when in automatic S-FLOW mode.
Depending on the set temperature, operation in S-FLOW mode may not
change as described above.
When certain conditions are met and priori ty is given to the driver’s seat only,
the temperature indicator for the fr ont passenger side will turn off.

operating the rear air conditioning system (RX350L), change to automatic S-
FLOW mode. ( P. 515)
