NOTEFor vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, the engine will stop
and the vehicle power will turn off approximately 1 sec-
ond after the ignition switch is turned to the “LOCK”;
position.
The reason for this is that, in the time from when the igni-
tion switch is turned to the “LOCK” position until the
engine stops, the gears inside the Twin Clutch SST disen-
gage so that the engine will start smoothly the next time it
is started.
Two clutches installed in the Twin Clutch SST alternately
engage and disengage to achieve smooth shifting.
In addition, the gear on the side with the free clutch is
engaged, therefore, quick shifting is performed.
If the engine was stopped with the gear engaged like this,
it would provide resistance the next time the engine is
started. Therefore, the gear disengages in the approxi-
mately 1-second period until the engine stops.
For vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, do not operate the
gearshift lever or the accelerator pedal for approximately
1 second until the engine stops.For vehicles with Twin Clutch SST, if the temperature
inside the engine compartment is high, the cooling fans
(A) will continue to operate for some time even if the
engine is stopped.
Therefore, the operation sound of the cooling fans may be
heard even after the engine is stopped. This sound is nor-
mal and does not indicate a malfunction.
After operating for a period of time, the cooling fans will
stop automatically.

Side ventsMove the knob to make adjustments.
To close the vent, move the knob to the outside as far as possi-
ble.NOTEOn rare occasions, air from the vents of an air-conditioned
vehicle may be foggy. This is only moist air cooling sud-
denly and does not indicate a problem.
Do not let drinks or other liquids get into the vents as they
could prevent the air conditioning from operating nor-
mally.
Changing the mode selection

To change the position and amount of air flowing from the
vents, turn the mode selection dial. Refer to “Mode selection
dial” on page 5-7, 5-13, 5-23, 5-33, 5-43.
These symbols are used in the next several illustrations to dem-
onstrate the quantity of air coming from the vents.

Turn the temperature control dial clockwise to make the air
warmer. Turn it counterclockwise to make the air cooler.NOTEWhile the engine coolant temperature is low, the tempera-
ture of the air from the heater will be cool/cold until the
engine warms up, even if you have selected warm air with
the dial.
For instructions on how to use the “MAX A/C” position
(A), refer to “For quick cooling” on page 5-18.

Air selection switch
N00736800367
Normally, use the outside air position to keep the windshield
and side windows clear and to quickly remove fog or frost
from the windshield.
To change the air selection, simply press the air selection
switch. A sound will be made every time you push the switch.
Outside air {Indicator light (A) OFF}
Recirculated air {Indicator light (A) ON}
When the air conditioning turns on, the air selection is con-
trolled automatically.
When the air conditioning turns off, the air selection automati-
cally goes back to the outside air position.
The air selection indicator light (A) shows the selected posi-
tion.
NOTEWhen the air conditioning operates with the air selection
switch (A) in the outside air position, the system automat-
ically determines whether to continue using outside air or
to perform recirculation.
If the outside temperature is high, the system selects recir-
culation to achieve rapid cooling and causes the air selec-
tion indicator in the switch to illuminate. When the air
conditioning turns off or the blower speed selection dial is
set to the “OFF” position, the air selection automatically
goes back to the outside position.
If the outside air is dusty or contaminated in some way, use the
recirculation position. Switch to the outside air position every
now and then to keep the windows from fogging up.
CAUTION
!Using recirculated air for a long time may cause the
windows to fog up.
