interior, airflow may be directed to
seats without passengers immedi-
ately after the EV system is
started and at other times depend-
ing on the outside temperature.
●After the EV system is started, if
passengers move around inside
or enter/exit the vehicle, the sys-
tem cannot accura tely detect the
presence of passengers and auto-
matic airflow control will not oper-
ate.
■Operation of manual airflow
control
Even if the function is manually
switched to directing airflow to only
the front seats, w hen a rear seat is
occupied, it may automatically direct
airflow to all seats.
WARNING
■To not interrupt the wind-
shield defogger from operat-
ing
Do not place anything on the
instrument panel which may cover
the air outlets. Otherwise, air flow
may be obstructed, preventing the
windshield defoggers from defog-
ging.
