Climate Controls
For more information on the vehicle's climate control
system, see“Climate Control System” in the owner
manual.
Electric Air Conditioning Compressor
This hybrid vehicle has a electrically powered air
conditioning compressor. This allows for continuous
air conditioning operation and passenger comfort,
even while the hybrid engine cycles on and off.
When operating the climate control system, select the
AUTO mode and the desired temperature setting.
The climate control system automatically adjusts the fan
speed and airflow direction. The climate control system
continues to adjust the climate control settings chosen
for best use of electrical power. At mild temperatures, select a warmer air conditioner
temperature or turn the air conditioner off to get
maximum fuel economy. Continuous air conditioner use
can cause the vehicle to Auto Start more frequently.
During hot weather, driving with the windows closed and
the air conditioner set to Auto mode, will result in better
Hybrid system performance.
Some noise may be heard occasionally from the
compressor, especially when air conditioning use is
high and the engine has turned off.
