5-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
SIENNA_OM_OM08035U_(U)
Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and
the ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow
immediately after is pressed.
When the outside temperature exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air condition-
ing system is on
In order to reduce the air conditioning power consumption, the air condition-
ing system may switch to recirculated air mode automatically.
This may also reduce fuel consumption.
Recirculated air mode is selected as a default mode when the engine switch
is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key system) or
IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system).
It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pressing .
Fogging up of the windows
The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.
Pressing on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the
windshield effectively.
If you turn “A/C” off, the windows may fog up more easily.
The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
Outside/recirculated air mode
When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set
to the recirculated air mode. This is effective in preventing outside air from
entering the vehicle interior. During cooling operation, setting the recircu-
lated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior effectively.
Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the
temperature setting or the inside temperature.
