Interior features
■ Fogging up of the windows
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 vehi-
cle 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 prevent-
ing dirty air from entering the vehicle interior and helping to cool the vehicle
when the outside air temperature is high.
■ Ventilation and air conditioning odors
● To let fresh air in, set the cooler system to the outside air mode.
● During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the cooler system. This may then cause odor to be emit-
ted from the vents.
● To reduce potential odors from occurring:
It is recommended that the cooler system be set to outside air mode prior to
turning the vehicle off.
■ Air conditioning filter
