Toyota Grand Highlander (AS10): Front seat concentrated airflow mode (S-FLOW)
This function automatically controls the air conditioning airflow so that priority is given to the front seats. Unnecessary air conditioning is suppressed, contributing to increased fuel efficiency.
Front seat concentrated airflow mode operates in the following situations.
- No passengers are detected in the rear seats
- The windshield defogger is not operating
While operating, the indicator illuminates on the S-FLOW mode switch.
■ Manually turning front seat concentrated airflow mode on/off
In front seat concentrated airflow mode, directing airflow to the front seats only and to all seats can be switched via switch operation. When the mode has been switched manually, automatic airflow control stops operating.
Select on the main control
screen or press the S-FLOW
mode switch on the air conditioning
operation panel and
switch the airflow.
- Indicator illuminated: Airflow to the front seats only
- Indicator off: Airflow to all the seats
■Operation of automatic airflow control
- In order to maintain a comfortable interior, airflow may be directed to seats without passengers immediately after the engine is started and at other times depending on the outside temperature.
- After the engine is started, if passengers move around inside or enter/exit the vehicle, the system cannot accurately detect the presence of passengers and automatic airflow control will not operate.
■Operation of manual airflow control
Even if the function is manually switched to directing airflow to only the front seats, when a rear seat is occupied, it may automatically direct airflow to all seats.
■To return to automatic airflow control
1. With the indicator off, turn the engine switch off.
2. After 60 minutes or more elapse, turn the engine switch to ON.
