lators at random.

temperature of the passenger compart-
ment becomes suitable.
. This function will not operate immedi-
ately after the engine starts.

Outside odor and exhaust gas detection
sensor:
This vehicle is equipped with an outside
odor and exhaust gas detection sensor.
When the automatic intake air control is
on, the sensor detects odors and exhaust
gas, and then the system automatically
changes from the outside air circulation
mode to the recirculation mode. When the
Forest button is pushed, the outside
odor and exhaust gas detection sensor will
turn on.
When the Forest Air
®
system is on, for the
first 40 seconds, the recirculation mode is
selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen
from entering the vehicle, and the system
cleans the air inside of the vehicle with
Plasmacluster
®
ion that are emitted from
the ventilator. After 40 seconds, the out-
side odor and exhaust gas sensor activates
and automatically alternates between the
recirculation mode and outside air circula-
tion mode.
. The outside odor and exhaust gas
detection sensor detects industry odors
such as pulp or chemicals, and exhaust
gas such as gasoline or diesel.

This vehicle is equipped with an inside air
quality sensor. When the sensor detects
odor in the cabin, the system increases the

sensor will turn on. This function may not
work during the first 5 minutes after the
engine is started because the system is
still warming up.

turn off when the air recirculation and
outside air circulation modes are chan-
ged manually. When the Outside/Inside
