5-5. Driving tips
the driving conditions:
 Do not try to forcibly open a win-
dow or move a wiper that is fro-
zen. Pour warm water over the
frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe
away the water immediately to
prevent it from freezing.
 To ensure proper operation of
the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accu-
mulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
 Check for and remove any
excess ice or snow that may
have accumulated on the exte-
rior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis,
around the tires or on the brakes.
 Remove any snow or mud from
the bottom of your shoes before
getting in the vehicle.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep
a safe distance between you and
the vehicle ahead, and drive at a
reduced speed suitable to road
conditions.
 Turn automatic mode of the park-
ing brake off. Otherwise, the
parking brake may freeze and
not be able to be released auto-
matically.
Also, avoid using the following as the
parking brake may operate automati-
cally, even if automatic mode is off.
• Brake hold system
• Remote parking function
 Park the vehicle and shift the
shift position to P without setting
the parking brake. The parking
brake may freeze up, preventing
it from being released. If the
vehicle is parked without setting
the parking brake, make sure to
block the wheels.
Failure to do so may be danger-
ous because it may cause the
vehicle to move unexpectedly,
possibly leading to an accident.
When the parking brake is in
automatic mode, release the
parking brake after shifting the
shift position to P. ( P.255)
 If the vehicle is parked without
setting the parking brake, con-
firm that the shift position cannot
be moved out of P.
 If the vehicle is left parked with
the brakes damp in cold tem-
peratures, there is a possibility of
the brakes freezing.
Use the correct tire chain size when
mounting the tire chains. Chain size

WARNING
■When parking the vehicle
When parking the vehicle without applying the parking brake, make
sure to chock the wheels. If you do not chock the wheels, the vehicle may move unexpectedly, possibly resulting
in an accident.

6-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
■Defogging the windshield
Defoggers are used to defog the
windshield and front side windows.
Press the windshield defogger
switch.
Set the outside/recirculated air mode
switch to outside air mode if the recircu-
lated air mode is used. (It may switch
automatically.)
To defog the windshield and the side
windows early, turn the air flow and
temperature up.
To return to the previous mode, press
the windshield defogger switch again
when the windshield is defogged.
When the windshield defogger switch is
on, the indicator illuminates on the
windshield defogger switch.
■Defogging the rear window
and outside rear view mirrors
Defoggers are used to defog the
rear window and to remove rain-
drops, dew and frost from the out-
side rear view mirrors.
Press the rear window and outside
rear view mirror defogger switch.
The defoggers will automatically turn off
after a period of time.
■Windshield wiper de-icer (if
equipped)
This feature is used to prevent ice
from building up on the windshield
and wiper blades.
Press the windshield wiper de-icer
switch.
The indicator comes on when the
windshield wiper de-icer is on.
The windshield wiper de-icer will auto-
matically turn off after a period of time.
■Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.
Selecting “A/C” will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the wind-shield effectively.
●If you turn “A/C” off, the windows may fog up more easily.
●The windows may fog up if the recir-culated air mode is used.
■When driving on dusty roads
Close all windows. If dust thrown up by the vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle after closing the windows, it is recom-
mended that the air intake mode be set to outside air mode and the fan speed to any setting except off.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●Setting to the recirculated air mode temporarily is recommended in pre-
venting dirty air from entering the vehicle interior and helping to cool the vehicle when the outside air tempera-
ture is high.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the temperature setting or the inside tem-
perature.
■When the outside temperature is low
The dehumidification function may not
operate even when “A/C” is selected.

■Ventilation and air conditioning
odors
●To let fresh air in, set the air condition-
ing system to the outside air mode.
●During use, various odors from inside
and outside the vehicle may enter into and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.
●To reduce potential odors from occur-
ring: • It is recommended that the air condi-tioning system be set to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off. • The start timing of the blower may be delayed for a short period of time
immediately after the air conditioning system is started in automatic mode.

switch.
2 Adjust the temperature setting.
3 To stop the operation, press the
“OFF” switch.
If the fan speed setting or air flow
modes are operated, the automatic
mode indicator goes off. However,
automatic mode for functions other
than that operated is maintained.
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and the ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow immediately after the automatic mode
switch is pressed.
Cool air may blow around the upper body even when the heater is on due to
sunlight.
To turn on the “SYNC” mode, per-
form any of the following proce-
dures:
 Press the “SYNC” mode switch.
WARNING
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
Do not use the windshield defogger
switch during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The differ-ence between the temperature of the
outside air and that of the windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, blocking your
vision.
■To prevent burns
●Do not touch the outside rear view mirror surfaces, as they can become very hot and burn you.
●Vehicles with windshield wiper de-icer: Do not touch the glass at lower
part of the windshield or to the side of the front pillars when the wind-shield wiper de-icer is on.
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery dis-charge
Do not leave the air conditioning sys- tem on longer than necessary when the EV system is off.

System
The Remote Air Conditioning
System uses electrical energy
stored in the traction battery
and allows the air conditioning
to be operated by remote con-
trol.
If the Remote Air Conditioning
System is used while the
charging cable is connected to
the vehicle, the reduction of
charge in the traction battery
will be suppressed to allow
you to use electricity from an
external power source.
Charging will be conducted auto-
matically after the Remote Air
Conditioning System is stopped.

■Precautions for the Remote Air Conditioning System
●Do not use the system if people are in the vehicle.Even when the system is in use, the
internal temperature may still reach a high or low level due to features such as the automatic shut-off. Chil-
dren and pets left inside the vehicle may suffer heatstroke dehydration or hypothermia, or could result in
death or serious injury.
●Depending on the surrounding envi-
ronment, signals from the wireless switch may transmit further than expected. Pay appropriate attention
to the vehicle’s surroundings and use the switch only when neces-sary.
●Do not operate “A/C” if the hood is open. The air conditioning may
operate unintentionally and objects may be drawn into the electrical cooling fan.
