zThe dehumidification function may not
operate even when “A / C ” is selected.
z 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.
z To reduce potential odors from occurring:
• It is recommended that the air condition-
ing 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 imme-
diately after the air conditioning system is
started in automatic mode.
z The air conditioning filter may clog after
long use. The filter may need to be
replaced if the air flow of the air conditioner
and heater experiences extreme reduc-
tions in operating efficiency, or if the win-
dows fog up easily. (For details, refer to
“Owner ’s Manual”.) z
Settings can be changed. (For details, refer
to “Owner’s Manual”.)
