Description
MAX A/C Setting
Set the Temperature Control Knob to the MAX A/C setting to change the current setting to the coldest output of air. Moving the
temperature control knob away from the MAX A/C setting causes the MAX A/C operation to exit.
A/C Button
Push the A/C button to engage the Air Conditioning (A/C). The A/C indicator illuminates when the A/C is on.
Recirculation Button
Press and release this button on the touchscreen, or push the button on the faceplate, to change the system between
Recirculation mode and outside air mode. The Recirculation indicator and the A/C indicator illuminate when the Recirculation
button is pushed. Recirculation can be used when outside conditions, such as smoke, odors, dust, or humidity are present.
Recirculation can be used in all modes except for Defrost. Recirculation may be unavailable if conditions exist that could create
fogging on the inside of the windshield. The A/C can be deselected manually without disturbing the mode control selection.
Continuous use of the Recirculation mode may make the inside air stuffy and window fogging may occur. Extended use of this
mode is not recommended.
