Chrysler 2009 Aspen Hybrid - Manual (Page 48)

Manual control of recirculation is possible only in Panel,
Floor, and Bi-Level modes. It will not operate in Mix, or
Defrost modes. The recirculation symbol will flash three
times indicating recirculation is not available in these
modes.
NOTE: If the interior of the windows begin to fog, press
the RECIRCULATE button to return to outside air. Some
conditions will cause captured interior air to fog win-
dows when in recirculate mode. In the auto mode the
humidity sensor may move the recirc setting to outside
air to automatically clear the windows of fog.
Panel
Air flows through the outlets located in the instru-
ment panel. These outlets can be adjusted to direct
the airflow.
Floor (Heat)
Air flows primarily through the floor outlets lo-
cated under the instrument panel. A small amount
of air is directed through the defrost and side window
demister outlets.
Mix
Outside air flows in equal proportions through the
floor and defroster outlets.
Bi-Level
Air flows through the outlets located in the instru-
ment panel and those located on the floor.
NOTE: There is a difference in temperature between the
upper and lower outlets for added comfort. The warmer
air goes to the floor outlets. This feature gives improved
comfort during sunny but cool conditions.
