CAUTION
l
Normally, use the outside position to keep
the windscreen and
side windows clear
and quickly remove fog or frost from the
windscreen.
If high cooling performance is desired, or
if the outside air is dusty or otherwise con-
taminated use the recirculation position.
Switch to the outside position periodically
to increase ventilation so that the win-
dows do not become fogged up.
l Use of the recirculation position for exten-
ded time may cause the windows to fog up.
NOTE l If
you press

the AUTO switch to select auto-
matic control after manually switching be-
tween outside air and recirculated air, the air
selection will also be automatically controlled. AUTO switch
E00702600011
When the
AUTO

switch is pressed, the operation in-
dication lamp (A) illuminates and the mode selec-
tion (except for “ ”), blower speed adjustment,
recirculated/outside air

selection, temperature ad-
justment and air conditioner ON/OFF status are all
controlled automatically. Air conditioning switch
E00703500886
Push the switch to turn the air conditioning on, indi-
cation lamp (A) will come on. Push the switch again to switch it off.
CAUTION
l
When using
the air conditioning, the
idling speed may slightly increase as the
air conditioning compressor is switched
on/off automatically. While the vehicle
with an A/T is stationary, fully depress
the brake pedal to prevent the vehicle
from creeping.
NOTE l If
a problem

is detected in the air condition-
ing compressor, the air conditioning opera-
tion indication lamp (A) blinks. Stop the ve-
hicle in a safe place, turn off the engine, then
restart the engine. If the air conditioning op-
eration indication lamp does not blink, there
is no problem. If it does blink, we recom-
mend you to have it checked.
l Sometimes, for example after using a high-
pressure car wash, the condenser can get wet,
and the operation indication lamp (A) blinks
temporarily. In this case there is nothing
wrong. Stop the vehicle in a safe place, turn
off the engine, then restart the engine. Once
the water evaporates, the blinking will stop. For pleasant driving

Blower speed selection dial
E00705300019
The blower has
3 different speeds. Select the best
speed to fit your needs. Temperature control dial
E00705500066
Select the desired temperature level by turning
clockwise or anticlockwise. NOTE
l The
rear air
conditioning will not operate un-
less the front air conditioning compressor is
operating.
Always switch the front air conditioning com-
pressor on before using the rear air condition-
ing. If the front air conditioning compressor
is not operating, the system will just operate
as a blower. Important operation tips for the
air conditioning E00708300889
l Park the vehicle in the shade.
Parking
in
the
hot sun will make the vehicle
inside extremely hot, and it will require 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 con-
ditioning operation to expel the hot air.
l Close the windows when the air conditioning
is in use. The entry of outside air through
open windows will reduce the cooling effi-
ciency.
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 collected in the air-
intake plenum may reduce air flow and plug
the plenum water drains.
Air conditioning system refrigerant
and lubricant recommendations
If the air conditioning seems less effective than usu-
al, the cause might be a refrigerant leak. We recom-
mend you to have the system inspected.
The air conditioning system in your vehicle must
be charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a and the
lubricant ND-OIL8.
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will cause
severe damage which will result in the need to re-
place your vehicle’s entire air conditioning system.
The release of refrigerant into the atmosphere
should be prevented. For pleasant driving

Handling of compact discs
E00723000106
l Use only
the
type of compact discs that have
the mark shown in the illustration below. Play-
back of CD-R or CD-RW discs may cause
problems. l
The use of
special shaped, damaged compact
discs (like cracked discs) or low-quality com-
pact discs (like warped discs or burrs on the
discs) will damage the CD player. l
In the
following
circumstances, moisture can
form on discs and inside the audio system,
preventing normal operation. • When there is high humidity (for exam-ple, when it is raining).
• When the temperature suddenly rises, such as right after the heater is turned on
in cold weather.

In this case, wait until the moisture has
had time to dry out.
l When the CD player is subjected to violent vi-
brations, such as during off-road driving, the
tracking may not work. l
When
storing compact
discs, always store
them in their separate cases. Never place com-
pact discs in direct sunlight, or in any place
where the temperature or humidity is high.
l Never touch the flat surface of the disc with-
out a label. This will damage the disc surface
and could affect the sound quality. When han-
dling a compact disc, always hold it by the
outer edge and the centre hole.
l To clean a disc, use a soft, clean, dry cloth.
Wipe directly from the centre hole towards
the outer edge. Do not wipe in a circle. Nev-
er use any chemicals such as benzine, paint
thinner, a disc spray cleaner, or an anti-static
agent on the disc. l
Do not
use
a ball point pen, felt pen, pencil,
etc. to write on the label surface of the disc.
l Do not put additional labels (A) or stickers
(B) on compact discs. Also, do not use any
compact disc on which a label or sticker has
started to peel off or any compact disc that
has stickiness or other contamination left by
a peeled-off label or sticker. If you use such
a compact disc, the CD player may stop work- For pleasant driving

If the vehicle breaks down
E00800101179
If the vehicle
breaks down on the road, move it to
the shoulder and use the hazard warning flashers and/
or the warning triangle etc. Refer to “Hazard warn-
ing flasher switch” on page 3-35.
If the engine stops/fails
Vehicle operation and control are affected if the en-
gine stops. Before moving the vehicle to a safe
area, be aware of the following:
l The brake booster becomes inoperative and
the pedal effort will increase. Press down the
brake pedal harder than usual.
l Since the power steering pump is no longer
operative, the steering wheel feels heavy
when turning it. Emergency starting
E00800502587
If the engine
cannot be started because the battery
is weak or dead, the battery from another vehicle
can be used with jumper cables to start the engine. WARNING
l To start
the
engine using jumper cables
connected to another vehicle, perform the
correct procedures according to the in-
struction below. Incorrect procedures
could result in a fire or explosion or dam-
age to the vehicles. CAUTION
l
Do not attempt
to start the engine by pull-
ing or pushing the vehicle. It could dam-
age your vehicle.
l Always wear protective eye goggles when
working near the battery.
l Keep the battery out of the reach of chil-
dren.
1. Get the vehicles close enough so the jumper
cables can

reach, but be sure the vehicles
aren’t touching each other. CAUTION
l
Check the
other
vehicle. It must have a 12-
volt battery.
If the other system isn’t 12-volt, shorting
can damage both vehicles. 2. Set the parking brake firmly on each vehicle.
Put an

A/T in “P” (PARK) or a M/T in “N”
(Neutral). Turn off the ignition switch. WARNING
l Turn off
the
ignition on both vehicles be-
forehand. Make sure that the cables or
your clothes cannot be caught by the fan
or drive belt. Personal injury could result.
3. Turn off all lamps, heater and other electrical
loads.
4. Make

sure battery electrolyte is at the proper
level. Refer to “Battery” on page 8-10. WARNING
l If electrolyte
fluid
is not visible, or ap-
pears to be frozen, Do Not Attempt Jump
Starting!
A battery might rupture or explode if the
temperature is below the freezing point
or if it is not filled to the proper level.
5. Connect one end of one jumper cable to the
positive (+)

terminal of the discharged bat-
tery (A or B), and the other end to the posi-
tive (+) terminal of the booster battery (C). For emergencies
