be engaged manually in any airflow mode except

Recirculated air may turn off automatically in all airflow modes except
MAX A/C. When the ignition switch is turned off and back on, the
climate system will return to the recirculated air mode only if the A/C
button LED is illuminated and the air distribution selection is
either

(panel/floor).

vents to cool the vehicle. This re-cooling of the interior air is more

undesirable odors from entering the vehicle. Press the MAX A/C button
again for normal A/C operation.
