Advanced climate control system
The advanced climate control system keeps the air inside of the vehicle clean, using the ion control and the automatic air intake control with outside odor and exhaust gas detecting sensor.
Ion control:
This unit generates highly concentrated Plasmacluster® ions into the air blown from the ventilators and reduces odor absorbed into the interior trim.
The high-density Plasmacluster® ions generated in the air conditioner’s air stream not only suppress airborne bacteria and reduce the adherence of odors to the interior trim, but also have a proven skin moisture preserving effect.
When the air conditioner is turned on, the system generates Plasmacluster® ions automatically.
The amount of Plasmacluster® ions increases according to the amount of air flow. When the air flow is high, “”
is displayed on the screen and when the air flow is low, the indication in the screen changes to “
”.
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 intake air control button is pushed under the following conditions, the indicator light on the “” side
will illuminate and the outside odor and exhaust gas detection sensor will turn on.
• The air flow control is not in the front defroster mode (the indicator light on the “” front defroster button is turned off).
• The outside temperature is about 328F (08C) or more.
• The outside odor and exhaust gas detection sensor detects industrial odors such as pulp or chemicals and exhaust gas such as gasoline or diesel.
When the automatic intake air control is ON, for the first 5 minutes, the recirculation mode is selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of the vehicle with Plasmacluster® ion that are emitted from the ventilator.
After 5 minutes, the sensor detects outside odors and exhaust gas and automatically alternates between the recirculation mode and outside air circulation mode.

Rapid air pressure loss or a “blow-out” can occur if the tire is punctured or is damaged due to hitting a curb or pothole. Rapid air pressure loss can also be caused by driving on under-inflated tires ...
