If the fan speed setting or air flow modes
are operated, the automatic mode indica-
tor goes off. However, automatic mode for
functions other than that 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 ar ound 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 dehumidificati on function is off,
and the fan is operating, turning automatic
mode on will activate the dehumidification
function.
This function automatically controls the
air conditioning airflo w 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.
■Manually 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.
NOTICE
■Humidity sensor
In order to detect fo g on the windshield,
a sensor which monitors the temperature
of the windshield, the surround humidity,
etc. is installed.
Follow these points to avoid damaging
the sensor:
●Do not disassemb le the sensor
●Do not spray glass cleaner on the sen-
sor or subject it to strong impacts
●Do not stick anything on the sensor

3546-1. Maintenance and care
WARNING
■Water in the vehicle
●Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehi-
cle, such as on the floor, in the hybrid
battery (traction battery) air vents, and
in the luggage compartment.
Doing so may cause the hybrid battery,
electrical components, etc. to mal-
function or catch fire.
●Do not get any of the SRS components
or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
( P.30)
An electrical malfunction may cause
the airbags to deploy or not function
properly, resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Vehicles with wireless charger: Do not
let the wireless charger ( P.330) get
wet. Failure to do so may cause the
charger to become hot and cause
burns or could cause electric shock
resulting in death or serious injury.
■Cleaning the interior (especially
instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner.
The instrument panel may reflect off the
windshield, obstructing the driver’s view
and leading to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■Cleaning detergents
●Do not use the following liquids, as
they may discolor the vehicle interior
or cause streaks or damage to painted
surfaces:
• Center Display: Organic substances such as benzine or gasoline, alkaline
solutions, and alcohol
• Seats: Alkaline solutions, organic sub- stances such as thinner or benzine,
and alcohol
• Other parts: Organic substances such as benzine or gasoline, alkaline or
acidic solutions, dye, and bleach
●Do not use polish wax or polish
cleaner. The instrument panel’s or
other interior part’s painted surface
may be damaged.
■Preventing damage to leather sur-
faces
Observe the following precautions to
avoid damage to and deterioration of
leather surfaces:
●Remove any dust or dirt from leather
surfaces immediately.
●Do not expose the vehicle to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time.
Park the vehicle in the shade, espe-
cially during summer.
●Do not place items made of vinyl, plas-
tic, or containing wax on the uphol-
stery, as they may stick to the leather
surface if the vehicle interior heats up
significantly.
■Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with water.
Vehicle systems such as the audio system
may be damaged if water comes into
contact with electrical components such
as the audio system above or under the
floor of the vehicle. Water may also
cause the body to rust.
■When cleaning the inside of the wind-
shield
Do not allow glass cleaner to contact the
lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
( P.212)
■Cleaning the inside of the rear win-
dow
●Do not use glass cleaner to clean the
rear window, as this may cause dam-
age to the rear window defogger
heater wires or antenna. Use a cloth
dampened with lukewarm water to
gently wipe the window clean. Wipe
the window in strokes running parallel
to the heater wires or antenna.
●Be careful not to scratch or damage
the heater wires or antenna.
