1. Recirculate (indicator light is on)—Re-
circulates the air inside the vehicle.
2. Fresh (indicator light is off)—Draws

the air intake mode may change automati-
cally to FRESH depending on the condi-
tion of the air conditioning system.

If the ambient temperature drops, the air
intake mode will automatically change
from RECIRCULATE to FRESH after a few

shuts off. If this happens, take your ve-
hicle to a Toyota dealer for service.

:Independent setting
To cool off your Toyota after it has
been parked in the hot sun, drive with
the windows open long enough for the
hot air to escape. This operation allows
the air conditioning to cool the interior
more quickly.
Make sure the air intake grilles in front
of the windshield are not blocked (by
leaves or snow, for example).
On humid days, do not blow cold air
on the windshield. The windshield could
fog up because of the difference in air
temperature on the inside and outside
of the windshield.
Keep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.
On 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.
When 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”.

If 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

interior. Heating
