■Microphone

→P. 446

■When using the microphone

● It is unnecessary to speak directly into the microphone when giving a com-

mand.

● When “Voice Prompt Interrupt” is set on, it is not necessary to wait for the

confirmation beep before speaking a command. (→P. 406)

● Voice commands may not be recognized if:

• They are spoken too quickly.

• They are spoken at a low or high volume.

• The roof or windows are open.

• Passengers are talking while voice commands are spoken.

• The air conditioning speed is set high.

• The air conditioning vents are turned towards the microphone.

● In the following conditions, the system may not recognize the command

properly and using voice commands may not be possible:

• The command is incorrect or unclear. Note that certain words, accents or

speech patterns may be difficult for the system to recognize.

• There is excessive background noise, such as wind noise.

Casual speech recognization

Due to natural language speech recognition technology, this system

enables recognition of a command when spoken naturally. However,

the system cannot recognize every variation of each command.

In some situations, it is possible to omit the command for the proce-

dure and directly state the desired operation.

Not all voice commands are displayed in the shortcut menu.

This function is available in English, Spanish and French.

6-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger

■ Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode

In Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled to prioritize fuel

efficiency by regulating the engine speed and compressor operation to

restrict the heating/cooling capacity.

To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations:

●Adjust the fan speed

● Adjust the temperature setting

● Turn off Eco drive mode (→P. 207)

■Fogging up of the windows

● The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.

Turning

on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the wind-

shield effectively.

● If you turn

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 the out-

side/recirculated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effective

in preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling

operation, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior

effectively.

■ When the outside temperature is low (vehicles with the “A/C” button)

The dehumidification function may not operate even when the “A/C” button is

pressed.

■ Ventilation and air conditioning odors

● To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.

● During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into

and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to

be emitted from the vents.

● To reduce potential odors from occurring:

It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air

mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

■ Air conditioning filter
