Air intake automatic control
-
The climate control unit performs the control as follows so that the cabin temperature lowers quickly according to the cooling conditions.
1. Calculates the cabin temperature value based on the ambient temperature and sunlight intensity.
2. Compares the calculated cabin temperature value and current cabin temperature.
3. Determines the air intake mode.

REC mode control under severe heat
-
When the vehicle is driven at a very low speed with the A/C on under a severe heat condition, the climate control unit may change the air intake mode from FRESH to REC automatically.
-
Due to this, load to the A/C compressor is reduced.
-
When the air intake mode is switched to REC, the indicator on the REC switch illuminates.
Correction
-
Defroster correction
-
The defroster correction improves the effect of defrosting.
-
The air intake is fixed at FRESH when the defroster switch is turned on.
-
The air intake is fixed at FRESH even if it has been set to REC manually.
-
Ambient temperature correction
-
When the ambient temperature is 15 °C {59 °F}
or less, the air intake is fixed at FRESH to prevent window fogging.
