Improving fuel economyThe following instructions will help you
improve fuel economy.
Avoid excessive idling
If you are to wait for more than a minute
while you are parked, stop the engine and
start it again later. When warming up a
cold engine, do not allow the engine to idle
or apply full throttle until the engine has
reached operating temperature. Allow the
engine to warm up by driving.
Avoid fast starts
Fast starts away from lights or stop signs
will consume fuel unnecessarily and
shorten engine life. Start off slowly.
Avoid unnecessary stops
Avoid unnecessary deceleration and stop-
ping. Try to maintain a slow, steady speed
whenever possible. Slowing down and
then accelerating aga in uses more fuel.
Keep a steady cruising speed
Drive at a constant speed that road and
traffic conditions will permit.
NOTICE
To minimize the possibility of cata-
lytic converter or other vehicle dam-
age:
• Maintain the engine in the proper operating condition.
• In the event of an engine malfunc-
tion, particularly one involving
engine misfire or other apparent
loss of performance, have the vehi-
cle serviced promptly.
• Do not turn off the engine or inter-
rupt the ignition when the transaxle
is in gear and the vehicle is in
motion.
• Do not try to start the engine by pushing or towing the vehicle, or
coasting down a hill.
• Do not idle the engine with any spark plug wires disconnected or
removed, such as during diagnos-
tic testing.
• Do not idle the vehicle for pro- longed periods if idling seems
rough or there are other malfunc-
tions.
• Do not allow the fuel tank to get
near the empty level.
WA R N I N G
Be careful where you park and drive;
the catalytic converter and other
exhaust components can get very
hot. As with any vehicle, do not park
or operate this vehicle in areas where
combustible materials such as dry
grass or leaves can come in contact
with a hot exhaust system.

CAUTION
Prolonged exposure to hot air from
the heater or air conditioner could
result in low temperature burns. All
vehicle occupants, particularly chil-
dren, the elderly, those with special
needs, individuals with delicate skin,
and sleeping individuals, should
maintain sufficient distance from the
air outlets to prevent prolonged
exposure to hot airflow.

This selector is used to select the following
modes.
FRESH AIR (f)
When this mode is se
lected by moving the
lever to right, outside air is used.
RECIRCULATED AIR (g)
When this mode is se lected by moving the
lever to left, outside air is shut out and
inside air is recirculated. This mode is suit-
able when driving through dusty or polluted
air such as in a tunnel, or when attempting
to quickly cool dow n the interior.
NOTE:
If you select RECIRCULATED AIR for an
extended period of time, the air in the vehi-
cle can become contam inated. Therefore,
you should occasio nally select FRESH
AIR.

NOTE:
The mark of “USE WITH” (5)
To clear fog on the windshield and/or the
side windows quickly, set the air flow
selector (3) to “HEAT & DEFROST” or
“DEFROST” and air intake selector (4) to
“FRESH AIR”. These positioning will clear
the fogged windshield and/or the side win-
dows faster than the “RECIRCULATED
AIR”.
System operating instructionsNatural ventilation
Select VENTILATION and FRESH AIR, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position, and the blower speed
selector to off. Fresh air will flow through
the vehicle during driving.
Forced ventilation
The control settings are the same as for
natural ventilation except you set the
blower speed selector to a position other
than off.
Normal heating (using outside air)
Select HEAT and FRESH AIR, the tem-
perature selector to the desired tempera-
ture position and the blower speed selector
to the desired blower speed position. Set-
ting the blower speed selector to a higher
blower speed position increases heating
efficiency.
Quick heating (using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal heating except you select RECIR-
CULATED AIR. If you use this heating
method for an extended period of time, the
air in the vehicle can become contami-
nated and the windows can become misty.
Therefore, use this method only for quick
heating and change to the normal heating
method as soon as possible. Head cooled/Feet warmed heating
Select BI-LEVEL and FRESH AIR, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position, and the blower speed
selector to the desired blower speed posi-
tion. Unless the temperature selector is in
the fully cold position or fully hot position,
the air that comes out of the center and
side outlets will be cooler than the air that
comes out of the floor outlets.
Defrosting/Feet warmed heating
Select HEAT & DEFROST and FRESH
AIR, the temperatur
e selector to the
desired temperature position, and the
blower speed selector to high. When the
windshield has become clear, set the
blower speed selector to the desired
blower speed position.
Defrosting
Select DEFROST and FRESH AIR, the
temperature selector to the desired tem-
perature position (higher temperature pro-
vides more efficient defrosting), and the
blower speed selector to high. When the
windshield has become clear, set the
blower speed selector to the desired
blower speed position.

NOTE:
If you need maximum defrosting, adjust
the temperature selector to hot end and
adjust the side outlets so the air blows on
the side window, in addition to the above
Defrosting procedure.Models with ENG A-STOP System
(if equipped)
• If the heating performance can no longer
perform at a sufficient level due to auto-
matically stopping the engine, press the
ENG A-STOP OFF switch to deactivate
the ENG A-STOP system. (The engine
will automatically restart and the heating
performance will be restored.)
• If the windshield and/or the driver’s side/ passenger side door windows are
fogged during automatic ally stopping the
engine, stop the ENG A-STOP system
and restart the engine. Then, turn the air
flow selector (3) to c hange the air flow to
the HEAT & DEFROST or DEFROST
position to defog the windows.
