A/C Button
Press and release this button on the touch-
screen, or push the button on the faceplate
to change the current setting. The A/C indi-
cator illuminates when A/C is on.
Recirculation Button
Press and release this button on the touch-
screen, 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 Recir-
culation button is pressed. Recirculation can be used when
outside conditions, such as smoke, odors, dust, or high
humidity are present. Recirculation can be used in all
modes. Recirculation may be unavailable (button on the
touchscreen greyed out) if conditions exist that could cre-
ate 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. Recircula-
tion mode may automatically adjust to optimize customer
experience for warming, cooling, dehumidification, etc.
In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode may lead to
excessive window fogging. The Recirculation feature
may be unavailable if conditions exist that could create
fogging on the inside of the windshield.

demist outlets. When the defrost button is selected, the
