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 (if
equipped)
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. (RX350L)
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
in a rear seat when in automatic
S-FLOW mode.
Depending on the set temperature, opera-
tion in S-FLOW mode may not change as
described above.
When certain conditions are met and pri-
ority is given to the driver’s seat only, the
temperature indicator for the front passen-
ger side will turn off.

the vehicle: P.305
