AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM97
DTo cool off your Toyota after it has
been parked in the hot sun, drive with
the windows open for a few minutes.
This vents the hot air, allowing the air
conditioning to cool the interior more
quickly.
DMake sure the air intake grilles in front
of the windshield are not blocked (by
leaves or snow, for example).
DKeep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.
DOn cold days, set the fan speed to
high for a minute to help clear the
intake ducts of snow or moisture. This
can reduce the amount of fogging on
the windows.
DWhen driving on dusty roads, close all
windows. If dust thrown up by the ve-
hicle is still drawn into the vehicle after
closing the windows, it is recommended
that the air intake selector be set to
FRESH and the fan speed selector to
any setting except “OFF”.
DIf following another vehicle on a dusty
road, or driving in windy and dusty
conditions, it is recommended that the
air intake selector be temporarily set to
RECIRCULATE, which will close off the
outside passage and prevent outside
air and dust from entering the vehicle
interior.
DDuring use, various odors from inside
and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning
system. This may then causeodor to
be emitted from the vents.
DTo 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.
CAUTION
To prevent the windshield from fog-
ging up, do not select the windshield
air outlets during cool air operation
in extremely humid weather. The dif-
ference between the temperature of
the outside air and that of the wind-
shield can cause the outer surface of
the windshield to fog up, blocking
your vision.
NOTICE
To prevent battery discharge, do not
leave the air conditioning system on
longer than necessary when the en-
gine is stopped.
Heating
For best results, set controls to:
Fan speed—Any setting except “OFF”
Temperature—To w a r d sWARM
(red zone)
Air intake—FRESH(outside air)
Air flow—FLOOR
Air conditioning—OFF
DFor quick heating, set the temperature
selector lever to the right end position
and select recirculated air mode for a
few minutes. To keep the windows from
fogging after the vehicle interior has
been warmed, select fresh air mode.
DPress the “A/C” button on for dehumidi-
fied heating.
DChoose floor/windshield air flow to heat
the vehicle interior while defrosting the
windshield.
