when the outside temperature drops to 37 8F(3 8C) or lower again, unless the
outside temperature has increased to41 8F(5 8C) or higher.
NOTE
The outside temperature indication
may differ from the actual outside
temperature. The road surface freeze
warning indication should be treated
only as a guide. Be sure to check the
condition of the road surface beforedriving. & Current fuel consumption (if equipped)
This indication shows the rate of fuel
consumption at the present moment. &
Average fuel consumption
1) U.S.-spec. models
2) Except U.S.-spec. models
This indication shows the average rate of
fuel consumption since the trip meter was
last reset.
When either of the trip meter indications is
reset, the corresponding average fuel
consumption value is also reset. NOTE . The indicated values vary in accor-
dance with changes in the vehicle ’s
running conditions. Also, the indicated
values may differ slightly from the
actual values and should thus be
treated only as a guide.. When either trip meter indication is
reset, the average fuel consumption corresponding to that trip meter indica-
tion is not shown until the vehicle has
subsequently covered a distance of 1
mile (or 1 km). &
To turn off fuel consumption
indicator display
The fuel consumption indicator display
can be turned off.
To turn off this display, turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK ”position and press
the “+ ” button adjacent to the information
display for approximately 5 seconds.
Then, the information display and the
clock display will blink for 3 seconds to
notify you that the fuel consumption dis-
play has been turned off.
To restore the indicator, once again pressthe “+ ” button for approximately 5 sec-
onds. NOTE . The initial display setting of the fuel
consumption indicator of your vehicle
has been set to operational at the time
of shipment from the factory. . The average fuel consumption is
calculated even while the indicator is
not displayed.. Even if you turn off the fuel con-
sumption indicator, the fuel consump-
tion indicator will automatically turn on

FULL AUTO mode operation:
When the “AUTO ”button is pressed, the
indicator light “FULL AUTO ”on the display
illuminates. In this state, fan speed, airflow
distribution, air-inlet control, and air con-
ditioner compressor operation are auto-
matically controlled.
AUTO mode operation:
If you operate any of the buttons on the
control panel other than the “OFF ”button,
rear window defogger button and tem-
perature control dials during FULL AUTO
mode operation, the indicator light “FULL ”
on the control panel will turn off and the
indicator light “AUTO ”will remain illumi-
nated. You can then manually control the
system as desired using the button you operated. To change the system back to
the FULL AUTO mode, press the
“AUTO ”
button. ! OFF button
The automatic climate control system
turns off (the air conditioner compressor
and fan turn off) when the “OFF ”button is
pressed.
When the “OFF ”button is pressed, the
outside air mode (air inlet selection OFF)
is automatically selected. !

lates inside the passenger compartment.

prevent outside air from entering the
passenger compartment. When the recir-
culation mode is selected, a “
”indica-
tor light appears on the display.
(Outside air) : Outside air is drawn
into the passenger compartment. When
the climate control system is operated inthe “AUTO ”mode, this position is selected
automatically. (There is one exception:
When the temperature control dial is turned fully counterclockwise, the recircu-
lation mode is automatically selected.)
When the outside air mode is selected, a“
”
indicator light appears on the dis-
play.
WARNING
Continued operation in the “
”
position may fog up the windows.
Switch to the “
”position as soon
as the outside dusty condition clears.
NOTE
When driving on a dusty road or behind
a vehicle that emits unpleasant exhaust
gases, set the air inlet selection button
to the “
”position. From time to
time, return the air inlet selection
button to the “
”position to draw
outside air into the passenger compart- ment. &
Type B
Although this climate control system can
be used as a full-automatic climate control
system, it can also, if desired, be used as
a semi-automatic climate control system.
When it is used as a full-automatic climate
control system, the outlet air temperature,
fan speed, airflow distribution, air inlet
control, and air conditioner compressor
operation are all automatically controlled
to maintain a constant, comfortable tem-
perature inside the vehicle. NOTE . When the engine coolant is cold, the
blower does not run. . In the “AUTO ”mode, when the air
temperature in the passenger compart-
ment is sufficiently cool, the air condi-
tioner compressor does not operate.
For efficient defogging or dehumidify-
ing in cold weather, press the “A/C ”
button to operate the air conditioner
compressor. Climate control
