S-FLOW mode
In S-FLOW mode, priority for the ai
rflow is given to the front seats,
reducing the airflow and air conditio ning effect on the rear seats.
When a passenger is not detecte d in the front passenger seat,
depending on the set temperature and ambient temperature, prior-
ity for the airflow will be gi ven to the driver’s seat only.
However, air will always be blown from the side outlet of the front pas-
senger seat.
The following S-FLOW modes are available:
Automatic S-FLOW mode
The system determines whether or not a rear passenger is in the
vehicle by the opening and closing of a rear door. When a rear
passenger is determined to be in the vehicle, S-FLOW mode will
be automatically disabled.
To enable S-FLOW mode again, press and enter manual
S-FLOW mode. (→P. 532)
The indicator will illuminate when S-FLOW mode is enabled.
Manual S-FLOW mode
When is pressed, S-FLOW m ode will be manually enabled/
disabled. ( →P. 532)
The indicator will illuminate when S-FLOW mode is enabled.
When the power switch is turned to ON mode, the system is oper-
ated in automatic S-FLOW mode.

Customization
Settings (e.g. A/C auto switching operation) can be changed. (Customizable
features: →P. 770)
WARNING
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
● Do not use during cool air operation in extremely humid weather. The
difference 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.
■ To prevent burns
Do not touch the rear view mirror surf aces when the outside rear view mirror
defoggers are on.
● 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 defogging.
