ger switch during cool air opera-
tion in extremely humid weather.
The difference between the tem-
perature of the outside air and
that of the windshield can cause
the outer surface of the wind-
shield to fog up, blocking your
vision.

Owners Manual_USA_M42C01_en
This function automatically con-
trols the air conditioning airflow
so that priority is given to the
front seats. Unnecessary air
conditioning is suppressed, con-
tributing to increased electricity
consumption efficiency.

seats without passengers immedi-
ately after the EV system is
started and at other times depend-
ing on the outside temperature.
●After the EV system is started, if
passengers move around inside
or enter/exit the vehicle, the sys-
tem cannot accura tely detect the
presence of passengers and auto-
matic airflow control will not oper-
ate.
■Operation of manual airflow
control
Even if the function is manually
switched to directing airflow to only
the front seats, w hen a rear seat is
occupied, it may automatically direct
airflow to all seats.
WARNING
■To not interrupt the wind-
shield defogger from operat-
ing
Do not place anything on the
instrument panel which may cover
the air outlets. Otherwise, air flow
may be obstructed, preventing the
windshield defoggers from defog-
ging.

■Precautions for the Remote
Air Conditioning System
●Do not use the system if people
are in the vehicle.
Even when the system is in use,
the internal temperature may
still reach a high or low level
due to features such as the
automatic shut-off. Children and
pets left inside the vehicle may
suffer heatstroke dehydration or
hypothermia, or could result in
death or serious injury.
●Depending on the surrounding
environment, signals from the
wireless switch may transmit
further than expected. Pay
appropriate attention to the
vehicle’s surroundings and use
the switch only when necessary.
●Do not operate “A/C” if the hood
is open. The air conditioning
may operate unintentionally and
objects may be drawn into the
electrical cooling fan.
