Using automatic mode

2765-3. Using the air conditioning system
and the fan is operating, turning automatic
mode on will activate the dehumidification
function. The next time the dehumidification
function is turned off, the automatic mode
for switching between outside air and recir-
culated air modes is canceled.
This function automatically controls the
air conditioning airflow so that priority
is given to the front seats. When the
front passenger seat is not occupied,
airflow may switch to only the driver’s
seat. Unnecessary air conditioning is
suppressed, contributing to increased
fuel efficiency.
Front seat concentrated airflow mode
operates in the following situations.
No passengers are detected in the rear seats
The windshield defogger is not
operating
While operating, illuminates.
QManually turning front seat con-
centrated airflow mode on/off
In front seat concentrated airflow
mode, directing airflow to the front
seats only and to all seats can be
switched via switch operation. When
the mode has been switched manually,
automatic airflow control stops operat-
ing.
Select on the center display
and switch the airflow.
Indicator illuminated: Airflow to the
front seats only
Indicator off: Airflow to all the seats
QOperation of automatic airflow control
OIn order to maintain a comfortable inte-
rior, airflow may be directed to seats
without passengers immediately after the
hybrid system is started and at other
times depending on the outside tempera-
ture.
OAfter the hybrid system is started, if pas-
sengers move around inside or enter/exit
the vehicle, the system cannot accurately
detect the presence of passengers and
automatic airflow control will not oper-
ate.
QOperation of manual airflow control
Even if the function is manually switched to
directing airflow to on ly the front seats,
when a rear seat is occupied, it may auto-
matically direct airflow to all seats.
QTo return to automatic airflow control
1 With the indicator off, turn the power
switch off.
NOTICE

a sensor which monitors the temperature
of the windshield, the surround humidity,
etc. is installed.
Follow these points to avoid damaging
the sensor:
ODo not disassemble the sensor
ODo not spray the glass cleaner on the
sensor or subject it to strong impacts
ODo not stick anything on the sensor
