culated air mode is used.
■ When driving on dusty roads
Close all windows. If dust thrown up by

after closing the windows, it is recom-
mended that the air intake mode be set
to outside air mode and the fan speed to
any setting except off.
■ Outside/recirculated air mode
● Setting to the recirculated air mode
temporarily is recommended in pre-
venting dirty air from entering the
vehicle interior and helping to cool the
vehicle when the outside air tempera-
ture is high.
● Outside/recirculated air mode may
automatically switch depending on the
temperature setting or the inside tem-
perature.
■ Operation of the air conditioning
system in Eco drive mode

system is controlled as follows to pri-
oritize fuel efficiency:
• Engine speed and compressor opera-
tion controlled to restrict heating/cool-
ing capacity
• Fan speed restricted when automatic
mode is selected

mance, perform the following opera-
tions:
