Air Conditioner Control

Press this button to turn on the air

conditioning during manual operation

only. When the air conditioning is

turned on, cool dehumidified air will

flow through the outlets selected with

the Mode control dial. Press this but-

ton a second time to turn OFF the air

conditioning. An LED in the button illuminates when

manual compressor operation is selected.

Recirculation Control

The system will automatically control recircu-

lation. However, pressing the Recirculation

Control button will put the system in recircu-

lation mode. This can be used when outside

conditions such as smoke, odors, dust, or high humidity

are present. Activating recirculation will cause the LED in

the control button to illuminate.

NOTE:
• When the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK

position, the recirculation feature will be cancelled.

• In cold weather, use of the Recirculation mode may

lead to excessive window fogging. The Recirculation

mode is not allowed in the floor, defrost, or defrost/

floor mode in order to improve window clearing.

Recirculation will be disabled automatically if these

modes are selected.

• Extended use of recirculation may cause the windows

to fog. If the interior of the windows begins to fog,

press the Recirculation button to return to outside air.

Some temp/humidity conditions will cause captured

interior air to condense on windows and hamper

visibility. For this reason, the system will not allow

Recirculation to be selected while in floor, defrost, or

defrost/floor mode. Attempting to use the recircula-

tion while in these modes will cause the LED in the

control button to blink and then turn off.
