Air conditioning system refrig-
erant and lubricant recommen-
dations
If the air conditioning seems less effective
than usual, the cause might be a refrigerant
leak. We recommend you to have the system
inspected.
The air conditioning system in your vehicle
must be charged with the refrigerant
HFO-1234yf and the lubricant VC 200YF.
Use of any other refrigerant or lubricant will
cause severe damage which will result in the
need to replace your vehicle’s entire air con-
ditioning system. The release of refrigerant
into the atmosphere should be prevented.
We recommend you to recover and recycle
the refrigerant for reuse.
During a long period of disuse
The air conditioning should be operated for at
least five minutes each week, even in cold
weather. This is to prevent the compressor
from seizing and to maintain the air condi-
tioning in the best operating condition.
Air purifier*
An air filter has been incorporated into this
air conditioning so that dirt and dust are
cleaned from the air.
Replace the air filter periodically as its ability
to clean the air will be reduced as it collects
pollen and dirt. For the maintenance interval,
refer to the “SERVICE BOOKLET”.
NOTE
l Operation in certain conditions such as driv-
ing on a dusty road and frequent use of the
air conditioning can lead to reduction of
service life of the filter. When you feel that
the air flow is lower than normal or when
the windscreen or windows start to fog up
easily, replace the air filter.
We recommend you to have it checked.
LW/MW/FM electronic
tuning radio with CD
player*
The audio system can only be used when the
ignition switch or the operation mode is in
ON or ACC.
NOTE
l
To listen to the audio system while the en-
gine is not running, turn the ignition switch
to the “ACC” position or put the operation
mode in ACC.
For vehicles equipped with the keyless oper-
ation system, if the operation mode is left in
ACC, the accessory power will automatical-
ly turn off after a certain period of time and
you will no longer be able to use the audio
system. The accessory power comes on
again if the engine switch is operated with it
in the “ACC” position.
Refer to “ACC power auto-cutout function”
on page 6-13.
l If a cellular phone is used inside the vehicle,
it may create noise from the audio equip-
ment. This does not mean that anything is
wrong with your audio equipment. In such a
case, use the cellular phone at a place as far
away as possible from the audio equipment.
l
If foreign objects or water get into the audio
equipment, or if smoke or a strange odour
comes from it, immediately turn off the au-
dio system. We recommend you to have it
checked. Never try to repair it by yourself.
Avoid continuous usage without inspection
by a qualified person.
