NOTE
●
For vehicles with automatic air conditioning, an automatic
fresh/recirculation control function is included to improve
the efficiency of the air conditioning. If the outside air
temperature rises, the air conditioning automatically
switches to the recirculation mode. To deactivate the auto-
matic fresh/recirculation control, press the air selection
switch while the ignition switch is “ON”. However, once
the automatic fresh/recirculation control is deactivated, it
can only be reactivated by ignition switch is “OFF”.
●
When the recirculation mode is selected by the automatic
fresh/recirculation control, the air conditioning will
switch to the outside air mode for about 30 seconds at
intervals of approximately 20 minutes in order to ventilate
the passenger compartment.
CAUTION
!
●
Normally, use the outside position to keep the wind-
screen and side windows clear and quickly remove
fog or frost from the windscreen.
If high cooling performance is desired, or if the out-
side air is dusty or otherwise contaminated use the
recirculation position. Switch to the outside position
periodically to increase ventilation so that the win-
dows do not become fogged up.
●
Use of the recirculation position for extended time
may cause the windows to fog up.
