The switches for radio, cassette tape and
disc player operation are displayed on the
function switch display screen when the
audio control mode is selected. Touch
them lightly and directly on the screen.

yellow.
INFORMATION
If the system does not respond to a
touch of a switch, move your finger
away from the screen and then touch
it again.
You cannot operate dimmed
switches.
Wipe off fingerprints on the surface of
the display using a glass cleaning
cloth.
(b) Tone and balance
How good an audio program sounds to you is
largely determined by the mix of the treble,
midrange, and bass levels. In fact, different
kinds of music and vocal programs usually
sound better with different mixes of treble,
mid−range, and bass.
A good balance of the left and right stereo
channels and of the front and rear sound lev-
els is also important.
Keep in mind that if you are listening to a ste-
reo recording or broadcast, changing the
right/left balance will increase the volume of
one group of sounds while decreasing the vol-
ume of another.

(c) Air intake selector
1RECIRCULATED — Recirculates the
air inside the vehicle.
2FRESH — Draws outside air into the
system.
Each time you push the air intake control
button.
The mode changes in order from the RECIR-
CULATED mode to FRESH mode, then back
to the RECIRCULATED mode.
Each indicator light shows which mode is now
selected.
If quick circulation of cooled air is desired,
push the air intake selector button for RECIR-
CULATED mode.For normal use, it is best to keep the air intake
selector button set to the FRESH mode. If re-
circulated air is used during heating, the win-
dows will fog up more easily.
To prevent fogging up of the windshield, the
air intake mode may change automatically to
the FRESH mode depending on the condition
of the air conditioning system.
For example, when the ambient temperature
is low, the air intake mode may change auto-
matically to the FRESH mode. This is not a
malfunction.
When the air conditioning is ON, if the engine
coolant temperature becomes extremely
high, the RECIRCULATED mode is automati-
cally selected. This is not a malfunction.
When the engine coolant temperature is low-
ered, the previous mode resumes.(d) Onoff of the air conditioning
Touch the “A/C” switch.
To turn the air conditioning on and touch it
again to turn the air conditioning off.
The air conditioning does not work if the out-
side temperature is lowered down to around
0
C (32
F).
If the system is used for ventilation, heating in
dry weather or removing frost or exterior fog
on the windshield, turn the air conditioning off
once it is no longer required. This will improve
fuel economy. The air conditioning can be
used for year−round automatic temperature
control including cooling and dehumidifying
operation.
If the air conditioning compressor does not
operate, the display light of the “A/C” switch
will blink. If the display light of the “A/C” switch
blinks even when the “A/C” switch is touched
again, have the compressor checked by your
nearest dealer.
If the engine coolant temperature becomes
extremely high, the air conditioning may shut
off automatically to resolve emergency situa-
tion for engine cooling. This is not a malfunc-
tion. When the engine coolant temperature is
lowered, the air conditioning comes on auto-
matically.

158
— Outside temperature
display
Outside temperature is displayed on the
screen.
The displayed temperature ranges from
−30
C (−22
F) up to 50
C (122
F). If the
temperature does not appear on the display
or it shows “− − −”, take your vehicle to your
dealer.
— Operating tips
To cool off your vehicle after it has been
parked in the hot sun, drive with the win-
dows open for a few minutes. After the ex-
cess heat has blown away, close the win-
dows. This vents the hot air, allowing the
air conditioning to cool the interior more
quickly.
Make sure the air intake grilles in front of
the windshield are not blocked (by leaves
or snow, for example).
If air flow control is not satisfactory, check
the side vents. (See “(e) Side vents”.)
On humid days, do not blow cold air on the
windshield. The windshield could fog up
because of the difference in air tempera-
ture on the inside and outside of the wind-
shield.
Keep the area under the front seats clear
to allow air to circulate throughout the ve-
hicle.
On cold days, set the fan speed to high for
a minute to help clear the intake ducts of
snow or moisture. This can reduce the
amount of fogging on the windows.
When driving on dusty roads, close all win-
dows. If dust thrown up by the vehicle is
still drawn into the vehicle after closing the
windows, it is recommended that the air in-
take control button be set to the FRESH
mode to take in the fresh air and the fan
speed selector to any setting except OFF.
If following another vehicle on a dusty
road, or driving in windy and dusty condi-
tions, it is recommended that the air intake
be temporarily set to the RECIRCULATED
mode, which will close off the outside pas-
sage and prevent outside air and dust
from entering the vehicle interior.

160 For manual operation —
Fan speed — To the desired fan speed
Temperature — Towards high temperature
to heat;
low temperature to cool
Air intake — FRESH (outside air)
Air flow — WINDSHIELD
When the windshield air flow button is
pushed, air flows mainly from the windshield
vents and turns on the defogging function with
the purpose of clearing the front view.
Pushing this button once again returns the air
flow mode to the last one used.
This button allows the air intake to select
FRESH mode automatically. This is to clean
up the front view more quickly. If you want to
return the setting to RECIRCULATED mode,
push the air intake selector button once
again.
Touch the “A/C” switch for dehumidified heat-
ing or cooling. This setting clears the front
view more quickly.
On humid days, do not blow cold air on the
windshield — the difference between the
outside and inside temperatures could
make the fogging worse.— The outside of the windshield
For best results, set controls to:
For automatic operation —
Temperature — Towards high temperature
Air intake — FRESH (outside air)
Air flow — WINDSHIELDFor manual operation —
Fan speed — To the desired fan speed
Temperature — Towards high temperature
Air intake — FRESH (outside air)
Air flow — WINDSHIELD
When the windshield air flow button is
pushed, air flows mainly from the windshield
vents and turns on the defrosting function with
the purpose of clearing the front view.
Pushing this button once again returns the air
flow mode to the last one used.
This button allows the air intake to select
FRESH mode automatically. This is to clean
up the front view more quickly. If you want to
return the setting to RECIRCULATED mode,
push the air intake selector button once
again.
Touch the “A/C” switch for dehumidified heat-
ing or cooling. This setting clears the front
view more quickly.
To heat the vehicle interior while defrost-
ing the windshield, choose floor/wind-
shield air flow.
— Side vents
If air flow control is not satisfactory, check
the side vents. The side vents may be
opened or closed as shown.
When outside temperature is cold like a winter
season, air flow temperature from the side
vents may not be warmed up enough for a
while until that the engine coolant tempera-
ture becomes high enough.
If air flow from the side vents is not satisfacto-
ry, air flow direction can be changed manually
by adjusting the vents fin direction or the vents
may be closed.
