●During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter

odor to be emitted from the vents.
● To reduce potential odors from occurring:
• It is recommended that the air conditioning 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.

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