Outside/recirculated air mode
●Setting to the recirculated air mode temporarily is recommended in prevent-
ing dirty air from entering the vehicle interior and helping to cool the vehicle
when the outside air temperature is high.
● Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch dependin g on the
temperature setting or the inside temperature.
■ When the outside temperature exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air co ndition-
ing system is on
● In order to reduce the air conditioning power consumption, the air condition-
ing system may switch to recirculated air mode automatically. This may also
reduce fuel consumption.
● Vehicles without a smart key system:
Recirculated air mode is selected as a default mode when the en gine switch
is turned to the “ON” position.
Vehicles with a smart key system:
Recirculated air mode is selected as a default mode when the en gine
switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode.
● It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pre ssing .
■ When the outside t emperature is low
The dehumidification function may not operate even when
is pressed.
■ Ventilation and air conditioning odors
●To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the out side air mode.
● During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle m ay enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then ca use odor to
be emitted from the vents.
● To reduce potential odors from occurring:
It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to ou tside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

■ Portable devices that can be charged
●Portable devices compatible with the Qi wireless charging stand ard can be
charged by the wireless charger. However, compatibility with all devices
which meet the Qi wireless charging standard is not guaranteed.
● The wireless charger is designed to supply low power electricit y (5 W or
less) to a cellular phone, smartphone, or other portable device .
● However, portable devices, such as the following, can be charge d with more
than 5 W.
• 7.5 W charging compatible iPhones can be charged at 7.5 W or l ess.
• Portable devices which conform to WPC Ver 1.2.4 can be charged at 10
W or less.
■ Using the smart key system
During charging, when the smart key system searches for an elec tronic key,
charging may be temporarily suspended.
■ If a cover or accessory is attached to the portable device
Do not charge a portable device if a cover or accessory which i s not Qi com-
patible is attached. Depending on the type of cover and/or acce ssory
attached, it may not be possible to charge the portable device. If the portable
device is placed on the charging area and does not charge, remo ve the cover
