NOTE
l
If the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system oper-
ates while the air conditioner is operating,

door windows: For quick demisting” on pa-
ges 7-06, 7-13.

the engine is stopped, we recommend you to
deactivate the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) sys-
tem by pressing the “Auto Stop &
Go(AS&G) OFF” switch. Refer to “To deac-
tivate” on page 6-24.
