RECIRC: This setting recirculates much of the air
inside your vehicle. This setting is not permitted in
FRONT defrost mode and is only permitted in
WINDSHIELD/FLOOR mode if the compressor is
turned on. The indicator light will be lit when
recirculation is engaged, but will light for one second
and then turn off if selected when not permitted.

Operating the climate control system in the RECIRC
mode may cause fogging of the vehicles windows when
the weather is cold and damp. To clear the fog, switch

To avoid re

fogging of the windows, operate the system

with RECIRC disengaged.
