■nanoe *1 system (if equipped)
Your vehicle incorporates a nanoe  device, which is considered a biocidal product. The
nanoe  device generates charged water particles from the ambient air and these purify
the air in the cabin by suppressing bacteria.
The nanoe  device is considered a biocidal produc t in the EU according to the interpre-
tation of Regulation (EU) No 528/2012.
Active substances: Charged water particles (nano) containing hydroxyl radicals, gener-
ated from ambient air
nanoe  helps to provide purified air by emitting electrically charged water particles
through the front center vent on the driver’s side
*2.
●When the fan is turned on an d “nanoe” on the option control screen is selected, the
nanoe  system is activated.
●When the fan is operated in the following conditions, system performance will be maxi-
mized. If the following conditions are not met, performance will be limited.
• The , or air outlets are being used.
• The front center vent on driver’s side is open.
●When nanoe  is generated, a small amount of ozone is emitted and may be faintly
smelled in some situations. However, this is approximately the same as the amount that
already exists in nature, such as in forests, and it has no affect on the human body.
●A slight noise may be heard during op eration. This is not a malfunction.
