On hot days, open the windows to let hot inside air
escape; then close them. This helps reduce the time
it takes for the vehicle to cool down. It also helps the
air conditioning system operate more efficiently.

has cooled, turn the recirculation mode off.

? (Recirculation): Press to turn the recirculation
mode on. An indicator light comes on to show that it is
on. This mode recirculates and helps to quickly cool the
air inside the vehicle. It can be used to prevent outside
air and odors from entering the vehicle. The recirculation
indicator light blinks three times if you try to use
recirculation in a mode in which it cannot function.
Pressing this button cancels the outside air mode.
When switching to the defog or defrost modes the
system automatically moves from recirculation to outside
air. When the vehicle or fan is turned off and back on, the
system defaults to outside air automatically. Only use
recirculation mode when it is needed for comfort, since
window fogging can occur.
