from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.

Note: Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: Use air conditioning with recirculated
air to improve cooling performance and
efficiency.
Note: When you select automatic mode

air vents.
Note: When you select automatic mode
and the outside temperature and in-vehicle
