5-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
Interior features
Turning “A/C” on will dehumidify the
air from the outlets and defog the windshield effectively.
●If you turn “A/C” off, the windows may fog up more easily.
●The windows may fog up if the recir-culated air mode is used.
■When driving on dusty roads
Close all windows. If dust thrown up by
the vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle after closing the windows, it is recom-mended that the air intake mode be set
to outside air mode and the fan speed to any setting except off.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●Setting to the recirculated air mode 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.
■Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode
●In Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to pri-
oritize fuel efficiency: • Engine speed and compressor opera-tion controlled to restrict heating/cool-
ing capacity • Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected
●To improve air conditioning perfor-mance, perform the following opera-
tions: • Adjust the fan speed• Turn off Eco drive mode ( P.299)
●Even when the drive mode is set to Eco drive mode, the air conditioning
eco mode can be turned off by press- ing the “FAST/ECO” switch. ( P.318)
■When the outside temperature falls to nearly 0°C (32°F)
The dehumidification function may not
operate even when “A/C” switch is
pressed.
■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 set 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 occur when starting
the vehicle.

WARNING
■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.
