The windows will fog up more easily if the recirculated air mode is used for
an extended period.

The air conditioning system may not operate even when is pressed.
■ Air conditioning odors
● During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter
into and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause
odor to be emitted from the vents.

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

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.
