Advanced Climate Control System
(ACCS) (if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System
(ACCS) keeps the air inside of the vehicle
clean, using the ion control and the
automatic air intake control with outside
odor and exhaust gas detecting sensor.

SAA2734
Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated
Plasmacluster
®ions into the air blown
from the ventilators and reduces odors
absorbed into the interior trim.
The high-density Plasmacluster
®ions gen-
erated in the air conditioner’s air stream
not only suppress airborne bacteria and
reduce the adherence of odors to the
interior trim, but also have a proven skin
moisture preserving effect.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster
®ions
automatically. The amount of Plasmacluster
®ions in-
creases according to the amount of air
flow. When the air flow is high, “
”is
displayed on the screen and when the air
flow is low, the indication in the screen
changes to “
”.
Plasmacluster®and Plasmacluster®ion
are registered trademarks of Sharp Cor-
poration.
Outside odor and exhaust gas detection
sensor:
This vehicle is equipped with an outside
odor and exhaust gas detection sensor.
When the automatic intake air control is
ON, the sensor detects odors and exhaust
gases, and then the system automatically
changes from the outside air circulation
mode to the recirculation mode.
When the intake air control button is
pushed under the following conditions,
the indicator light on the “
”side will
illuminate and the outside odor and
exhaust gas detection sensor will turn on.
. The air flow control is not in the front
defroster mode (the indicator light on
the “
”front defroster button is
turned off). .
The outside temperature is about 328F
(08C) or more.
. The outside odor and exhaust gas
detection sensor detects industrial
odors such as pulp or chemicals, and
exhaust gases such as gasoline or
diesel.
When the automatic intake air control is
ON, for the first 5 minutes, the recircula-
tion mode is selected to prevent dust, dirt
and pollen from entering the vehicle and
cleans the air inside of the vehicle with
positive and negative ions that are emitted
from the ventilator.
After the 5 minutes, the sensor detects
outside odors and exhaust gases and
automatically alternates between the re-
circulation mode and outside air circula-
tion mode.
OPERATING TIPS
When the engine coolant temperature and
outside air temperature are low, the air
flow from the foot outlets may not operate.
This is not a malfunction. After the coolant
temperature warms up, air will flow nor-
mally from the foot outlets.

power lines, electric signs and even traffic
lights.
Satellite radio reception:
When the satellite radio is used for the first
time or the battery has been replaced, the
satellite radio may not work properly. This
is not a malfunction. Wait more than 10
minutes with the satellite radio ON and the
vehicle outside of any metal or large
building for the satellite radio to receive
all of the necessary data.
The satellite radio mode requires an active
SiriusXM Satellite Radio subscription. The
satellite radio is not available in Alaska,
Hawaii and Guam.
The satellite radio performance may be
affected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo near the
satellite antenna.
A build up of ice on the satellite radio
antenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception.
