Air quality system (AQS)
The air inflow from outside the vehi-
cle can be automatically controlled.
Press the button to activate the air
quality control system.
When using AQS mode, AQS (Air
Quality System) automatically sens-
es outdoor air pollutants and mini-
mizes them from entering the vehi-
cle, however, unpleasant or foul
odors that might be present may still
be noticeable within the vehicle.
Exhaust gas cutoff mode :
Air enters the vehicle from the outside.
If exhaust gas from the outside of the
vehicle is detected, the exhaust gas cut-
off mode is automatically converted
from the outside air position to the recir-
culated air position to prevent exhaust
gas from entering the vehicle.
Information
• The AQS button indicator will imme-
diately illuminate when the engine is
started with the AQS in the ON posi-
tion. However, the AQS starts oper-
ating after 40 seconds.
• The AQS filters out toxic exhaust (i.e.
NO, NO2, SO2, CO, CxHy) to pre-
vent it from entering the passenger
compartment but, does not totally
block odor.
The AQS does not operate in any of
the following situations :

the OFF position.

tion or the recirculated air position
is selected.

tion, while the climate control sys-
tem is automatically controlled

trol system is selected.
• The auto defogging system oper-
ates to defog the front windshield.
