Defoggers are used to defog the

windshield and front side win-

dows.

Press the windshield defogger

switch.

Set the outside/recirculated air

mode switch to outside air mode if

the recirculated air mode is used. (It

may switch automatically.)

To defog the windshield and the

side windows quickly, turn the air

flow and temperature up.

1 Air flows to the upper body.

2 Air flows to the upper body

and feet.

To return to the previous mode,

press the windshield defogger

switch again when the windshield is

defogged.

3 Air flows to the feet.

windshield defogger oper-

ates.

●Recirculated air mode is selected

switch.

as a default mode when the power

switch is turned to ON.

■ Defogging the rear window

(if equipped)

●It is possible to switch to outside

air mode at any time by pressing

the outside air mode switch.

A defogger is used to defog the

rear window.

■Heating

Press the rear window defogger

switch.

●In HV mode, the gasoline engine

may operate in order to extract

heat from the engine coolant via

the heater.

When the rear window defogger

switch is on, the indicator illumi-

nates on the rear window defogger

switch.

●In EV mode, heating is done by a

heat pump system.

• When the outside temperature is

low or it is snowing, compared to

conventional vehicles, heating

may be less effective and warm

air may not come out.

• When the outside heat exchanger

is frosted over, fan speed declines

and it may become harder to heat

the interior. However, it is not a

malfunction. In this situation, the

air temperature from the outlets

may not change even though the

set temperature is raised.

• When “AUTO” switch is turned on,

the heating is controlled opti-

mally. Therefore, the set heating

performance may not be achieved

even if the fan speed setting is

increased.

The defogger will automatically turn

off after 15 minutes.

■ Defogging the rear window

and outside rear view mir-

rors (if equipped)

Defoggers are used to defog the

rear window and to remove rain-

drops, dew and frost from the

outside rear view mirrors.

Press the rear window and out-

side rear view mirror defoggers

switch.

When the rear window and outside

rear view mirror defoggers switch is

on, the indicator illuminates on the

rear window and outside rear view

mirror defoggers switch.

The defoggers will automatically

turn off after 15 minutes.

Outside heat exchanger

■When the outside temperature

exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air

conditioning system is on

●In the following situations the gas-

oline engine may operate in order

to extract heat from the engine

coolant via the heater even in EV

mode.

• The outside temperature is

approximately 75°F (24°C) or low

• Windshield defogger is operating

●In order to reduce the air condi-

tioning power consumption, the air

conditioning system may switch to

recirculated air mode automati-

cally.

This may also reduce fuel con-

sumption.

During or after the air conditioning

operation, water droplets may fall

from the vehicle. However, it is not a

malfunction.

The outside heat exchanger, accu-

mulator and air conditioning piping

may incur condensation or frost may

■When driving on dusty roads

A

Accumulator

Close all windows. If dust thrown up

by the vehicle is still drawn into the

vehicle after closing the windows, it

is recommended that the air intake

mode be set to outside air mode

and the fan speed to any setting

except off.

B

Outside heat exchanger

■Fogging up of the windows

●The windows will easily fog up

when the humidity in the vehicle is

high. Turning “A/C” switch on will

dehumidify the air from the outlets

and defog the windshield effec-

tively.

■Outside/recirculated air mode

●Setting to the recirculated air

mode temporarily is recom-

mended in preventing dirty air

from entering the vehicle interior

and helping to cool the vehicle

when the outside air temperature

is high.

●If you turn “A/C” switch off, the

windows may fog up more easily.

6

●The windows may fog up if the

recirculated air mode is used.

■While using “My Room Mode”

●Outside/recirculated air mode may

automatically switch depending on

the temperature setting or the

inside temperature.

●It may not be possible to obtain

the intended defogging perfor-

mance even if the windshield

defogger switch is pressed. If the

windows need to be defogged

before driving, stop charging

power and then press the wind-

shield defogger switch.

■When the outside temperature

falls to nearly 32°F (0°C)

The dehumidification function may

not operate even when “A/C” switch

is pressed.

●When the outside temperature is

low, heating may feel insufficient

due to restricted operation of the

air conditioning.

■Operation of the air condition-

ing system in the eco air condi-

tioning mode

Heating cannot be performed

when it is approximately 14°F (-

10°C) or less as the gasoline

engine cannot be started during

“My Room Mode”. If heating is

desired, stop charging and

remove the AC charging cable

from the vehicle.

●In the eco air conditioning mode,

the air conditioning system is con-

trolled as follows to prioritize fuel

efficiency:

• Engine speed and compressor

operation controlled to restrict

heating/cooling capacity

438

• Fan speed restricted when auto-

matic mode is selected

●The eco air conditioning mode can

be turned on and off using the

option screen of the air condition-

ing control screen. (P.440)

■Air conditioning filter

■Air conditioning system refrig-

erant

●When the driving mode is

changed to Eco drive mode, the

eco air conditioning mode is

turned on automatically. (P.422)

●To improve air conditioning perfor-

mance, perform the following

operations:

●A label regarding the refrigerant of

the air conditioning system is

attached to the hood at the loca-

tion shown in the following illustra-

tion.

• Adjust the fan speed

• Deactivate Eco drive mode

(P.422)

• Turn off eco air conditioning mode

(P.440)

■Ventilation and air conditioning

odors

●To let fresh air in, set the air condi-

tioning system to the outside air

mode.

●The meaning of each symbol on

the label are as follows:

●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.

Caution

tem

Air conditioning sys-

tem lubricant type

●In order to suppress odors that

occur when the air conditioning

system starts, the air flow mode

may change to blow air to the feet

or air may stop blowing for a short

period of time immediately after

the air conditioning system is

started in automatic mode.

Requires registered

technician to service

●When parking, the system auto-

matically switches to outside air

mode to encourage better air cir-

culation throughout the vehicle,

helping to reduce odors that occur

when starting the vehicle.

replaced with a new one.

WARNING

■Cautions for using “My Room

Mode”

Do not leave children, people who

need assistance, or pets inside

the vehicle. The system may turn

off automatically and the interior

temperature may become high or

low, resulting in heat stroke, dehy-

dration or hypothermia. Failure to

do so may result in death or seri-

ous injury.

Using automatic mode

1 Press the “AUTO” switch.

2 Adjust the temperature set-

ting.

■To prevent the windshield

from fogging up

3 To stop the operation, press

the “OFF” switch.

Do not use the windshield defog-

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.

If the fan speed setting or air

flow modes are operated, the

automatic mode indicator goes

off. However, automatic mode

for functions other than that

operated is maintained.

■When the outside rear view

mirror defoggers are operat-

ing (if equipped)

■Using automatic mode

Fan speed is adjusted automati-

cally according to the temperature

setting and the ambient conditions.

Do not touch the rear view mirror

surfaces when the outside rear

view mirror defoggers are on.

Therefore, the fan may stop for a

while until warm or cool air is ready

to flow immediately after the auto-

matic mode switch is pressed.

NOTICE

Cool air may blow around the upper

body even when the heater is on

due to sunlight.

■To prevent 12-volt battery dis-

charge

Do not leave the air conditioning

system on longer than necessary

when the hybrid system is off.

■Windshield fog detection func-

tion

When automatic mode is set, the

humidity sensor detects fog on the

windshield and controls the air con-

ditioning system to prevent fog.
