Turn the  
dial to the “MAX A/C” position and select the recirculated air  
mode.  
Fogging up of the windows  
Vehicles with the  
button: The windows will easily fog up when the  
humidity in the vehicle is high. Turning  
on will dehumidify the air from  
off, the windows may fog  
the outlets and defog the windshield effectively.  
Vehicles with the  
button: If you turn  
up more easily.  
The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.  
Outside/recirculated air mode  
When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the out-  
side/recirculated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effective  
in preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling  
operation, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior  
effectively.  
When the outside temperature is low (vehicles with the  
button)  
The air conditioning system may not operate even when  
is pressed.  
Ventilation and air conditioning odors  
To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning 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 occurring:  
It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air  
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

CAUTION  
To prevent the windshield from fogging up  
Do not set the air outlet selector dial to  
during cool air operation in  
extremely humid weather. The difference 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.  
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 defogging.  
To prevent burns (vehicles with outside rear view mirror defoggers)  
Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mirror  
defoggers are on.  
NOTICE  
To prevent battery discharge

Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessary when the
