●

The air flow mode will change to

the upper body mode

●

The fan speed will be set to high.

■

Fogging up of the windows

●

The windows will easily fog up

when the humidity in the vehicle is

high. Turning the “A/C” switch on

will dehumidify the air from the

outlets and defog the windshield

effectively.

●

If you turn the “A/C” switch off, the

windows may fog up more easily.

●

The windows may fog up if the

recirculated air mode is used.

■

When driving on dusty roads

Close all windows. If dust thrown up

by the vehicle is still drawn into the

vehicle after closing the windows, it

is recommended 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

temperature is high.

■

Operation of the air condition-

ing system in Eco drive mode

In Eco drive mode, the air condition-

ing system is controlled to prioritize

fuel efficiency by regulating the

engine speed and compressor oper-

ation to restrict the heating/cooling

capacity.
To improve air conditioning perfor-

mance, perform the following opera-

tions:

●

Adjust the fan speed

●

Adjust the temperature setting

●

Turn off Eco drive mode (

WARNING

■

To prevent the windshield

from fogging up

Do not use the windshield defog-

ger switch during cool air opera-

tion in extremely humid weather.

The difference between the tem-

perature of the outside air and

that of the windshield can cause

the outer surface of the wind-

shield to fog up, blocking your

vision.

■

When the outside rear view

mirror defoggers are operat-

Do not touch the rear view mirror

surfaces when the outside rear

view mirror defoggers are on.

■

When the windshield wiper

de-icer is operating

Do not touch the glass at lower

part of the windshield or to the

side of the front pillars when the

windshield wiper de-icer is on.

NOTICE

■

To prevent battery discharge

Do not leave the air conditioning

system on longer than necessary

when the engine is off.

■

When repairing/replacing

parts of the air conditioning

system

Have repair/replacement per-

formed by your Toyota dealer.

When a part of the air conditioning
