Recirculation Control

When outside air contains smoke, odors, or
high humidity, or if rapid cooling is desired,
you may wish to recirculate interior air by
pressing the Recirculation control button. The

recirculation indicator will illuminate when this button is
selected. Push the button a second time to turn off the
Recirculation mode and allow outside air into the vehicle.

NOTE:

In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may

lead to excessive window fogging. The Recirculation
mode is not allowed in Mix, Floor and Defrost modes to
improve window clearing operation. Recirculation will
be disabled automatically if these modes are selected.
Attempting to use Recirculation while in these modes
will cause the LED in the control button to blink and then
turn off.

ment panel.
