Advanced Climate Control System
(if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System keeps the air inside of the vehicle clean,
using the ion control and the automatic air
intake control with exhaust gas detecting
sensor.
Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated
Plasmacluster
®ions into the air blown from
the ventilators and reduces odor absorbed
into the interior trim.
The high-density Plasmacluster
®ions gen-
erated in the air conditioner’s air stream not
only suppress airborne bacteria and reduce
the adherence of odors to the interior trim,
but also have a proven skin moisture pre-
serving effect.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster
®ions auto-
matically.
The amount of Plasmacluster
®ions in-
creases according to the amount of air flow.
When the air flow is high,
is displayed on
the display screen and when the air flow is
low, the indication in the screen changes to
.

Exhaust gas/outside odor detection sensor:
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust gas
detection sensor. When the automatic in-
take air control is ON, the sensor detects
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-31

4-32Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
industry odors such as pulp or chemicals, and
exhaust gas such as gasoline or diesel. When
such odors or gas are detected, the system
automatically changes from the outside air
circulation mode to the recirculation mode.
When the
button is pushed under the
following conditions, the indicator light on
the button will illuminate and the exhaust
gas detection sensor will turn on.
. The air flow control is not in the front
defroster mode. (The indicator light on
the
button is turned off.)
. The outside temperature is about 32°F
(0°C) or more.
When the automatic intake air control is ON,
for the first 5 minutes, the recirculation
mode is selected to prevent dust, dirt and
pollen from entering the vehicle and cleans
the air inside of the vehicle with positive and
negative ions that are emitted from the
ventilator.
After the 5 minutes, the sensor detects
exhaust gas and automatically alternates
between the recirculation mode and outside
air circulation mode.
