Advanced climate control system (if so
equipped)
The advanced climate control system keeps the
air inside of the vehicle clean, using the ion
control and the automatic air intake control with
exhaust gas detecting sensor.
Push the “ AUTO” auto-recirculation button
(the indicator light on the “ AUTO” auto-
recirculation button will illuminate) to activate the
ion control and the automatic air intake control.
Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated Plas-
macluster
®
ions into the air blown from the
ventilators and reduces odor absorbed into the
interior trim.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the
system generates Plasmacluster
®
ions automa-
tically.
“The high-density Plasmacluster
®
ions gener-
ated in the air conditioner’s air stream not only
suppress airborne bacteria and reduce the
adherence of odors to the interior trim, but also
have a proven skin moisture preserving effect.”
The amount of Plasmacluster
®
ions increases
according to the amount of air flow. When the air
flow is high, “

*
A is displayed on the
screen and when the air flow is low, the
indication in the screen changes to “
”
*
B .
Plasmacluster
®
and Plasmacluster
®
ions are

Automatic air intake control with exhaust
gas/outside odor detection sensor:
This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust gas
detection sensor. When the automatic air intake
control is activated, the sensor detects industry
odors such as pulp or chemicals, and exhaust
gas such as gasoline or diesel. When such
odors or gas are detected, “
”
*
C will
appear on the display and the system auto-
matically changes from the outside air circulation
mode to the recirculation mode.
The automatic air intake control can be activated
when the “ AUTO” auto-recirculation button
is pushed (the indicator light on the “ AUTO”
auto-recirculation button will illuminate) under
the following conditions.
. The air flow control is not in the front
defroster mode (the indicator light on the
front defroster“
FRONT” button is
turned off).
. The outside temperature is about 328F
(0 8C) or above.
When the automatic air intake control is ON, for
the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode is
selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from
entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of
the vehicle with positive and negative ions that
are emitted from the ventilator.
After 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust gas
and automatically alternates between the recir-
culation mode and outside air circulation mode.
Turning the system off
Push the “ON·OFF” button.
