fog up more easily.
●The windows may fog up if the recir-
culated air mode is used.
■When driving on dusty roads

temporarily is recommended in pre-
venting dirty air from entering the vehicle interior and helping to cool the
vehicle when the outside air tempera-
ture is high.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may
automatically switch depending on the temperature setting or the inside tem-
perature.

■Ventilation and air conditioning odors
●To let fresh air in, set the air condition-ing system to the outside air mode.
●During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning
system. This may then 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 of the blower may be
delayed for a short period of time immediately after the 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 o ccur when starting
the vehicle.

■To prevent the windshield from
fogging up
Do not use the windshield defogger switch during cool air operation in
extremely humid weather. The differ-
ence between the temperature of the outside air and that of the windshield
can cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up, blocking your
vision.
■When the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are operating (if equipped)
Do not touch the outside rear view
mirror surfaces, as they can become very hot and burn you.
