. When the temperature is extremely high
or low, the screen may not display
objects clearly. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
. When strong light is directly coming on
the camera, objects may not be dis-
played clearly. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
. The screen may flicker under fluores-
cent light. This is not a malfunction.
. The colors of objects on the Around
View Monitor may differ somewhat
from the actual color of objects. This
is not a malfunction.
. Objects on the monitor may not be clear
and the color of the object may differ in
a dark environment. This is not a
malfunction.
. There may be differences in sharpness
between each camera view of the bird-
eye view.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on the
camera, the Around View Monitor may
not display objects clearly. Clean the
camera. .
Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner
to clean the camera. This will cause
discoloration. To clean the camera,

Advanced Climate Control System
(if so equipped)
The Advanced Climate Control System
keeps the air inside of the vehicle clean,
using the ion control and the automatic air

intake control with exhaust gas detecting
sensor.
SAA2734
Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated
Plasmacluster
®ions into the air blown
from the ventilators and reduces odor
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.
Exhaust gas/outside odor detection sen-
sor:
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust
gas detection sensor. When the automatic
intake air control is ON, the sensor detects
industry odors such as pulp or chemicals,
and exhaust gas such as gasoline or
diesel. When such odors or gas are
detected, the system automatically
changes from the outside air circulation
mode to the recirculation mode.
When the auto-recirculation button is
pushed under the following conditions,
the indicator light on the “
”button will
illuminate and the 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

4-44Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems
turned off).
. The outside temperature is about 328F
(08C) or more.
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
exhaust gas and automatically alternates
between the recirculation mode and out-
side air circulation mode.
