In order to reduce the air condi-
tioning power consumption, the air
conditioning system may switch to
recirculated air mode automati-
cally. This may also reduce fuel

switch is turned to ON.

may fog up more easily.

is recommended that the air intake
mode be set to outside air mode and
the fan speed to any setting except
off.

automatically switch depending on
the temperature setting or the
inside temperature.
