venting outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling opera-
tion, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehi cle interior

be emitted from the vents.

mode prior to turning the vehicle off.
• The start timing of the blower may be delayed for a short peri od of time
immediately after the air conditioning system is started in aut omatic
mode.
