The current ion mode is indicated by the ion indicator displayed on the screen.

.Clean mode

Both positive ions and negative ions are emitted from the ventilators, which helps improve the air quality in the passenger compartment by neutralizing airborne particles, such as dust, pollen and other impurities. When the clean mode is operating, the ion indicator illuminates in blue.

.Ion control mode

Negative ions emitted from the ventila- tors help purify the air in the passenger compartment. When the ion control mode is operating, the ion indicator illuminates in green.

Exhaust gas detection sensor:

This vehicle is equipped with an exhaust gas detection sensor. When the automatic intake air control is ON, the sensor detects pollutants such as CO and NO2 outside and the system automatically changes from the outside air circulation mode to the recircu- lation mode.

When the intake air control button is pushed under the following conditions, the indicator light on the side will

illuminate and the exhaust gas detection sensor will turn on.

.The air flow control is not in the front defogger mode (the indicator light on

the front defroster button is turned off).

.The outside temperature is about 08C (328F) or more.

When the automatic intake air control is ON, for the first 5 minutes, the recircula- tion mode is selected to prevent dust, dirt and pollen from entering the vehicle and cleans the air inside of the vehicle with positive and negative ions that are emitted from the ventilator.

After the 5 minutes, the sensor detects exhaust gas and automatically alternates between the recirculation mode and out- side air circulation mode.
