The air conditioner can only be used while the engine is running.CAUTIONl The  engine  speed  may  increase  when  the  air  conditioning  is  operating.  With  an  increased  engine  speed,  an 
A/T  vehicle  will  creep  to  a  greater  degree  than
with a lower engine speed. Fully depress the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle from creeping.

the  windscreen  and  side  windows  clear  and
quickly  remove  fog  or  frost  from  the  wind- screen.
If  high  cooling  performance  is  desired,  or  if
the outside air is dusty or otherwise contami- nated  use  the  recirculation  position.  Switch
to  the  outside  position  periodically  to  in- crease ventilation so that the windows do notbecome fogged up.

Demisting of the windscreen
and door windows
E00704302263
CAUTIONl For  safety,  make  sure  you  have  a  clear  view
through all the windows.For ordinary demisting
1. Set the air selection switch to the outside
position.
2. Set the MODE switch to the “
” posi-
tion.
3. Select your desired blower speed by pressing the blower speed selection
switch.
4. Select your desired temperature by pressing the temperature control switch.
5. Press the air conditioning switch.
For quick demisting
1. Press the demister switch to change to the “
” position.
2. Set the blower to the maximum speed.
3. Set the temperature to the highest posi- tion.
NOTEl To  demist  effectively,  direct  the  air  flow
from  the  side  ventilators  towards  the  door windows.
l Do  not  set  the  temperature  to  the  max.  cool
position.  Cool  air  will  blow  against  the  win-
dow glasses and prevent demisting.

NOTElFor  vehicles  with  the  Auto  Stop  &  Go
(AS&G)  system,  if  the  demister  switch  is
pressed,  the  Auto  Stop  &  Go  (AS&G)  sys- tem  will  not  operate  and  the  engine  will  notstop  automatically  even  if  the  vehicle  is stopped. This is to ensure that good visibility
is maintained.Important operation tips for
the air conditioning E00708302128
lPark the vehicle in the shade.
Parking  in  the  hot  sun  will  make  the  ve-
hicle inside extremely hot, and it will re-
quire more time to cool the interior.
If it is necessary to park in the sun, open the  windows  for  the  first  few  minutes  of
air  conditioning  operation  to  expel  the
hot air.
l Close  the  windows  when  the  air  condi-
tioning is in use. The entry of outside air
through  open  windows  will  reduce  the cooling efficiency.
l Too  much  cooling  is  not  good  for  the
health. The inside air temperature should
only  be  5  to  6  °C  below  the  outside  air temperature.
l When  operating  the  system,  make  sure
the  air  intake,  which  is  located  in  front
of the windscreen, is free of obstructions such  as  leaves  and  snow.  Leaves  collec- ted  in  the  air-intake  plenum  may  reduce
air  flow  and  plug  the  plenum  water
drains.
Air conditioning system refrig- erant and lubricant recommen-dations
If  the  air  conditioning  seems  less  effective than  usual,  the  cause  might  be  a  refrigerant
leak.  We  recommend  you  to  have  the  system inspected.
The  air  conditioning  system  in  your  vehicle must  be  charged  with  the  refrigerant
HFC- 134a and the lubricant DH-PR.
Use  of  any  other  refrigerant  or  lubricant  will
cause  severe  damage  which  will  result  in  the need  to  replace  your  vehicle’s  entire  air  con-
ditioning  system.  The  release  of  refrigerant into the atmosphere should be prevented.
It  is  recommended  that  the  refrigerant  be  re- covered and recycled for further use.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioning should be operated for at
least  five  minutes  each  week,  even  in  cold weather.  This  is  to  prevent  poor  lubrication
of  the  compressor  internal  parts  and  to  main-
tain  the  air  conditioning  in  the  best  operating
condition.
Air purifier*
E00708401773
An  air  filter  has  been  incorporated  into  thisair  conditioner  so  that  dirt  and  dust  are
cleaned from the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its ability
to  clean  the  air  will  be  reduced  as  it  collects pollen  and  dirt.  For  the  maintenance  interval,
refer to the “SERVICE BOOKLET”.
NOTEl Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing  on  a  dusty  road  and  frequent  use  of  the air conditioner can lead to reduction of serv-
ice  life  of  the  filter.  When  you  feel  that  the air  flow  is  lower  than  normal  or  when  the
windscreen  or  windows  start  to  fog  up  easi- ly, replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked.

The  audio  system  can  only  be  used  when  the ignition  switch  or  the  operation  mode  is  in
ON or ACC.NOTEl For  vehicles  equipped  with  the  Keyless  op-
eration  system,  if  the  operation  mode  is  left
in  ACC,  the  accessory  power  will  automati- cally  turn  off  after  a  certain  period  of  time
and you will no longer be able to use the au- dio  system.  The  accessory  power  comes  on again if the engine switch is operated with it
in the “ACC” position. Refer to “ACC pow- er auto-cutout function” on page 6-15.
l If a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle,
it  may  create  noise  from  the  audio  equip-
ment.  This  does  not  mean  that  anything  is wrong with your audio equipment. In such acase,  use  the  cellular  phone  at  a  place  as  far
away as possible from the audio equipment.
l If foreign objects or water get into the audio
equipment,  or  if  smoke  or  a  strange  odour comes  from  it,  immediately  turn  off  the  au-
dio  system.  We  recommend  you  to  have  it checked.  Never  try  to  repair  it  by  yourself.
Avoid  continuous  usage  without  inspection
by a qualified person.Important Points on Usage
