SYSTEM CONTROL
The air conditioning system has been added the following controls:
| Control | Outline |
|---|---|
| No. 1 Ion Generator Sub-assembly Control* |
The air conditioning amplifier assembly operates the No. 1 ion generator sub-assembly, linked with the rotation of the blower motor. |
Tech Tips
*: Models with No. 1 ion generator sub-assembly
ION GENERATOR
nanoeTM*1are minute ion particles covered in water, with a ratio of approximately 1000 times more water than oxygen ions. nanoeTMalso have a slight acidity that is gentle on skin and hair.
nanoeTMcreated by the nanoeTMgenerator (No. 1 ion generator sub-assembly) installed in the instrument panel are blown out from the blower motor and released from the passenger side register.*2

nanoeTMGenerator Operation
The nanoeTMgenerator (No. 1 ion generator sub-assembly) installed in the instrument panel is composed of a heat exchanger that uses a Peltier device and a nanoeTMgenerator that generates a high voltage. When current flows to the nanoeTMgenerator, it passes through the Peltier device, cooling the atomized electrodes within the nanoeTMgenerator. Then, the nanoeTMgenerator applies a high voltage to the liquid created through condensation on the atomized electrodes, creating nanoeTM.
