Air conditioning odors
During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to be emitted from the vents.
To reduce potential odors from occurring: • It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air mode prior to turning the vehicle off.
• The start timing of the blower may be delayed for a short period of time immediately after the air conditioning system is started in automatic mode.
CAUTION:
To prevent the windshield from fogging up
Do not use during cool air operation
in extremely humid weather. The difference
between the temperature of the outside air and that of the windshield can
cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, blocking your vision.
NOTICE:
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessary when the
hybrid
system is off.
