AUTO mode operation:
The Automatic Climate Control system automatically
controls the air temperature of the passenger com-
partment in the AUTO mode. When the “AUTO” switch
is pressed, the indicator light “AUTO” on the control
panel comes on. In this state, outlet air temperature,
fan speed, air flow distribution, air-inlet control, and air
conditioner compressor operation are automatically
controlled.
ECON (economy) mode:
When you press the “AUTO” switch while the system
is in the AUTO mode, it selects the ECON (economy)
mode, turning on the “ ” indicator light. In the
ECON mode, the compressor runs to be thrifty with
energy consumption. Interior windows tend to fog in
this energy-saving operation. It is therefore recom-
mended that the AUTO mode be used only in high hu-
midity conditions.
Manual mode operation:
When the Automatic Climate Control system is operat-
ing in the AUTO mode, pressing the “ ”,
“ ”, “MODE”,“A/C” or “ ” switch
shifts the operation into the “MANUAL” mode and the
indicator light “AUTO” on the control panel will go out.
When the “ ”, “ ”, “MODE”,“A/C” or “ ” switch is pressed, the corresponding func-
tion can be controlled independently, while automatic
control of the other functions are maintained.
To change the system back to the AUTO mode, press
the “AUTO” switch. T

switch for 1 second or longer if you feel it is too
hard to identify the icons clearly. The brightness
comes back to normal.
If you wish to dim the icons again, hold down the
