which protrudes pa st its rear bumper • If a vehicle ahead is irregularly
shaped, such as a tractor or side car
• If a vehicle ahead is a child sized bicy - cle, a bicycle that is carrying a large
load, a bicycle ridden by more than
one person, or a uniquely shaped bicycle (bicycle with a child seat, tan-
dem bicycle, etc.)
• If a pedestrian/or the riding height of a bicyclist ahead is shorter than approx -
imately 1 m (3.2 ft.) or taller than

• When driving in inclement weather
such as heavy rain , fog, snow or a
sandstorm • When driving through steam or smoke
• When the surrounding area is dim,
such as at dawn or dusk, or while at night or in a tunnel, making a detect -
able object appear to be nearly the
same color as its surroundings
• When driving in a place where the sur - rounding brightness changes sud -
denly, such as at the entrance or exit
of a tunnel • After the hybrid system has started
the vehicle has not been driven for a
certain amount of time • While making a left/right turn and for a
few seconds after making a left/right
turn • While driving on a curve and for a few
seconds after driving on a curve
• If your vehicle is skidding • If the front of the v ehicle is raised or
lowered
• If the wheels are misaligned
• If a wiper blade is blocking the front
camera • The vehicle is being driven at
extremely high speeds
• When driving on a hill • If the radar sensor or front camera is
misaligned
●In some situations such as the follow -
ing, sufficient braking force may not
be obtained, preventing the system from performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate
to their full extent, such as when the brake parts are extremely cold,
extremely hot, or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly main - tained (brakes or ti res are excessively
worn, improper tire i nflation pressure,
etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other slippery surface
■If VSC is disabled
●If VSC is disabled (→P.439), the pre- collision brake assist and pre-collision
braking functions are also disabled.

4566-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
●During use, various odors from inside
and outside the vehicle may enter into and accumulate in the air conditioning
system. This may t hen cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
●To reduce potential odors from occur -
ring: • It is recommended that the air condi-
tioning system be se t to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off. • The start timing o f the blower may be
delayed for a short period of time
immediately after t he air conditioning system is started in automatic mode.
●When parking, the system automati- cally switches to outside air mode to
encourage better air circulation
throughout the vehicle, helping to reduce odors that occur when starting
the vehicle.
■Air conditioning filter
→ P.532
■Noise from air conditioning system
Approximately 90 seconds after the
power switch turned to OFF, you may
hear sound coming from air conditioning system. This is the sound of a air condi -
tioning system initial ize and, it does not
indicate a malfunction.
■Customization
Settings (e.g. A/C Auto switch opera-
tion) can be changed.
(Customizable features: →P.640)
1Press the “AUTO” switch.
The dehumidification function begins to
operate. Air outlets and fan speed are automatically adjusted according to the
temperature setting and humidity.
2 Adjust the temperature setting.
3 To stop the operation, press the
“OFF” switch.
If the fan speed se tting or air flow
modes are operated, the automatic
mode indicator goes off. However,
automatic mode for functions other
than that operated is maintained.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically
according to the temperature setting and
the ambient conditions.
WARNING
■Cautions for using “My Room Mode”
Do not leave children, people who
need assistance, or pets inside the vehicle. The system may turn off
automatically and the interior tem-
perature may become high or low, resulting in heat stroke, dehydration
or hypothermia. Fa ilure to do so may
result in death or serious injury.
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
Do not use the wi ndshield defogger
switch during cool air operation in extremely humid weather.
The difference bet ween the tempera-
ture of the outside air and that of the windshield can cause the outer sur -
face of the windshield to fog up,
blocking your vision.
■When the outside rear view mir -
ror defoggers are operating
Do not touch the rear view mirror sur -
faces when the out side rear view mir-
ror defoggers are on.
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery dis - charge
Do not leave the ai r conditioning sys-
tem on longer than necessary when the hybrid system is off.

6-1. Using the air conditi oning system and defogger
Interior features
●The outside temperature is extremely
low
●When the hybrid syst em is cool (for
example, after being left for a long time in low temperatures)
■Windshield defogger
When defogging the windshield using
the Remote Air Conditioning System, defogging may be insufficient due to the
power being restricted more than during
normal air conditioning operation. Also, the outside of the windshield may fog up
due to the outside temperature, humidity
or air conditioning set temperature.
■Using the heater via the Remote Air Conditioning System
●When the outside te mperature is low, heating may feel insufficient due to
restricted operation of the air condi -
tioning.
●When the outside heat exchanger
becomes frosted ov er, heating perfor- mance may decline due to automati -
cally switchi ng to the frost removal
operation. ( →P.452)
■Security feature
Any unlocked doors will be automatically
locked when the system is operating.
The emergency flashers flash to indicate that the doors have been locked or the
system has been turned off.
■Conditions affecting operation
→ P.225
■While the Remote Air Conditioning System is operating
●Depending on the operating condition of the Remote Air Conditioning Sys -
tem, the air condit ioning compressor
or cooling fan may spin and an operat -
ing noise may be heard. However, this does not indicate a mal -
function.
●The air conditi oning operation
switches, etc. will not operate while
the Remote Air Conditioning System is operating.
■Electronic key battery depletion
→ P.202
■When the electronic key battery is fully depleted
→ P.543
■Customization
Setting (e.g. Operation using “A/C” on the wireless remote control) can be
changed. (Customizable features:
→ P.629)
WARNING
■Precautions for the Remote Air Conditioning System
●Do not use the system if people are
in the vehicle. Even when the system is in use, the
internal temperature may still reach
a high or low level due to features such as the automatic shut-off.
Children and pets left inside the
vehicle may suffer heatstroke dehy - dration or hypothermia, or could
result in death or serious injury.
●Depending on the surrounding envi -
ronment, signals from the wireless
switch may transmit further than expected. Pay appropriate attention
to the vehicle’s surroundings and
use the switch only when neces- sary.
●Do not operate “A/C” on the wire - less remote contro l if the hood is
open. The air conditioning may
operate unintentionally and objects may be drawn into the electrical
cooling fan.
NOTICE
■To prevent the hybrid battery (traction battery ) from being dis-
charged
Use “A/C” on the wireless remote control only when necessary.
