OTHER CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT

You can switch the air intake selector to
either “FRESH AIR” or “RECIRCULATED
AIR” as you desire. Choosing “RECIRCU-
LATED AIR” increases cooling efficiency.
Quick cooling (using recirculated air)
The control settings are the same as for
normal cooling except you select “RECIR-
CULATED AIR” and the highest blower
speed.
NOTE:
• If you select “RECIRCULATED AIR” for
an extended period of time, the air in the
vehicle can become contaminated.
Therefore, you should occasionally
select “FRESH AIR”.
• If your vehicle has been left in the sun
with the windows closed, it will cool
faster if you open the windows briefly
while you operate the air conditioner with
the air intake selector at “FRESH AIR”
and the blower at high speed.
Dehumidifying
Set the air flow selector to a desired air
flow selector position, the temperature
selector to the desired temperature posi-
tion and the blower speed selector to the
desired blower speed position. Also select
“FRESH AIR” and turn on the “A/C” switch.
NOTE:
Because the air conditioner dehumidifies
the air, turning it on will help keep the win-
dows clear, even when blowing heated air
using the “DEFROST” or “HEAT &
DEFROST” functions.

NOTE:
If you need maximum defrosting:
• select “DEFROST” and “FRESH AIR”,
• set the blower speed selector to HIGH,
• adjust the temperature selector to the
HOT end,
• turn on the “A/C” switch, and
• adjust the side outlets so the air blows
on the side windows.
Models equipped with SHVS system (if
equipped)
• If the air conditioning performance can
no longer perform at a sufficient level
due to automatically stopping the
engine, press the ENG A-STOP OFF
switch to deactivate the ENG A-STOP
system. (The engine will automatically
restart and the air conditioning perfor-
mance will be restored.)
• If the windshield and/or the driver’s side/
passenger side door windows are
fogged during automatically stopping the
engine, stop the ENG A-STOP system
and restart the engine. Then, turn the Air
flow selector (3) to change the air flow to
the “Heat & defrost” or “Defrost” position
to defog the windows.
