Press the AUTO lever in order to convert to fully automatic control of the system.
Mode selection

The air flow outlet ports are switched in the following sequence:

Face-Level (B, D, F)
Air flow is directed toward the upper body and face. Additionally, each outlet can be controlled to direct the air discharged from the outlet.
Bi-Level (B, C, D, F)
Air flow is directed towards the face and the floor.
Floor-Level (C, D)
Most of the air flow is directed to the floor, with a small amount of the air being directed to the windscreen, side window defrosters and side air vents.
Floor/Defrost-Level (A, C, D)
Most of the air flow is directed to the floor and the windscreen with a small amount directed to the side window defrosters and side air vents.
Defrost-Level (A, D)

Most of the air flow is directed to the windscreen with a small amount of air directed to the side window defrosters and side air vents.
Instrument panel vents

You can adjust the direction of air delivered from these vents using the vent control lever as shown.
Temperature control (if equipped)

The temperature will increase to the maximum (HI) by pressing the temperature control lever upward.
The temperature will decrease to the minimum (Lo) by pressing temperature control lever downward.
When pressing temperature control lever, the temperature will increase or decrease by 0.5 °C. When set to the lowest temperature setting, the air conditioning will operate continuously.
Changing temperature scale
You can switch the temperature mode from Centigrade to Fahrenheit as follows:
-
Whilst pressing the OFF button, press the AUTO lever for 3 seconds or more.
The display will change from Centigrade to Fahrenheit, or from Fahrenheit to Centigrade. If the battery has been discharged or disconnected, the temperature mode display will reset to Centigrade.
Controlling air intake

To change the air intake control position:
-
Push the desired control button.
Recirculated air position

Outside (fresh) air position


Prolonged operation of the heater in the recirculated air position (without air conditioning selected) may cause fogging of the windscreen and side windows and the air within the passenger compartment may become stale.
In addition, prolonged use of the air conditioning with the recirculated air position selected will result in excessively dry air in the passenger compartment.

-
Continued climate control system operation in the recirculated air position may allow humidity to increase inside the vehicle which may fog the glass and obscure visibility.
-
Do not sleep in a vehicle with the air conditioning or heating system on. It may cause serious harm or death due to a drop in the oxygen level and/or body temperature.
-
Continued climate control system operation in the recirculated air position can cause drowsiness or sleepiness, and loss of vehicle control. Set the air intake control to the outside (fresh) air position as much as possible whilst driving.
Controlling fan speed
The fan speed can be set to the desired speed by operating the Fan speed control lever.
-
Press the lever upward for higher speed, or press the lever downward for lower speed.
To change the fan speed:
Air conditioning (A/C)

-
Press the A/C lever to turn the air conditioning system on (indicator light will appear).
-
Press the lever again to turn the air conditioning system off.
Turning off the front air climate control

-
Press the OFF button to turn off the air climate control system.
However, you can still operate the mode and air intake buttons as long as the ENGINE START/STOP button is in the ON position.
