Extract from the Service Manual:

Air Conditioner Use and Precautions
• To avoid excessive forces being applied to the compressor, turn ON the air conditioner after starting the engine. Turn ON the air conditioner when the engine is idling smoothly.
• When using the air conditioner in the blazing sun, open a window a while to replace the interior air before turning on the air conditioner.
• Smoking while using the air conditioner may lead to pain in the eyes. If this occurs, slightly open a window to allow clean air to enter from outside. Cigarette smoke can be extremely irritating if the mucus membranes of the eyes become dry when the humidity
drops during cooling.
• Window glass tends to become cloudy during periods of high humidity. This can be remedied by using the air conditioner and opening or closing windows, as appropriate.
• Mist blown out of the outlets is due to water droplets condensing in humid air as is passes through the evaporator.

Handling the Air Conditioner
(1) When using air conditioner after a long period of non-use
•1. Air Conditioner Inspection and Maintenance Table Perform the air conditioner inspections.
(2) If air conditioner is not used for a long period Charge with the rated volume of refrigerant gas for the air conditioning cycle.
• Run the air conditioner while the engine is idling once or twice every two or three weeks for five to ten minutes to prevent loss of oil in the compressor or air conditioner cycle parts. Do not suddenly accelerate the engine while the air conditioner is running.
