■Switching between outside air and recirculated air modes
Recirculated air mode or outside air mode may be automatically switched to
in accordance with the temperature setting and the inside temperature.
■ Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.
Turning on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the
windshield effectively.
● If you turn off, the windows may fog up more easily.
● The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
■ Outside/recirculated air mode
When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the out-
side/recirculated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effec-
tive in preventing outside air from enter ing the vehicle interior. During cooling
operation, setting the recirculated air m ode will also cool the vehicle interior
effectively.
■ When the outside temperature exceed s 75°F (24°C) and the air condi-
tioning system is on
● In order to reduce the air conditioning power consumption, the air condi-
tioning system may switch to recirculated air mode automatically. This
may also reduce fuel consumption.
● Vehicles without a smart key system: Recirculated air mode is selected
as a default mode when the engine switch is turned to the “ON” position.
Vehicles with a smart key system: Recirculated air mode is selected as a
default mode when the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to IGNI-
TION ON mode.

It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, blocking
your vision.
