-Operating tips D To cool off your Toyota after it has been parked in the hot sun, drive with the windows open for a few minutes. This vents the hot air, allowing the air conditioning to cool the interior more quickly. D If following another vehicle on a dusty road, or driving in windy and dusty conditions, it is recommended that the air intake control button be temporarily set to RECIRCULATE, which will close off the outside passage and prevent outside air and dust from entering the vehicle interior. Heating For best results, set controls to: Fan speed-"AUTO" Temperature- To the desired temperature Air intake-FRESH (outside air) Air flow-"AUTO" Lower vent-CLOSED Air conditioning-OFF D Make sure the air intake grilles in front of the windshield are not blocked (by leaves or snow, for example). D On humid days, do not blow cold air on the windshield. The windshield could fog up because of the difference in air temperature on the inside and outside of the windshield. D For quick heating, select recirculated air for a few minutes. To keep the windows from fogging, select fresh after the vehicle interior has been warmed. D Keep the area under the front seats clear to allow air to circulate throughout the vehicle. D Press the "A/C" button on for dehumidified heating. D On cold days, set the fan speed to high for a minute to help clear the intake ducts of snow or moisture. This can reduce the amount of fogging on the windows. D Choose floor/windshield air flow to heat the vehicle interior while defrosting or defogging the windshield. D When driving on dusty roads, close all windows. If dust thrown up by the vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle after closing the windows, it is recommended that the air intake control button be set to FRESH and the fan speed control button to any setting except "OFF". 181
