Dodge 2009 Caliber - Manual (Page 242)

Circulation Control
Use this button to choose between
outside air intake or recirculation
of the air inside the vehicle. A
light will illuminate when you are
in recirculate mode. Only use the
recirculate mode to temporarily
block out any outside odors,
smoke, or dust and to cool the
interior rapidly upon initial start
up in very hot or humid weather.
NOTE: Continuous use of the recirculate mode may
make the inside air stuffy and window fogging may
occur. Extended use of this mode is not recommended.
In cold or damp weather, the use of the Recirculate
position will cause windows to fog on the inside because
of moisture build up inside the vehicle. For maximum
defogging, select the Outside Air position.
NOTE: Recirculation Mode will not operate in floor, mix
or defrost modes.
Air Conditioning (Normal)
Use this button to engage the Air
Conditioning. A light will illumi-
nate when the Air Conditioning
System is engaged.
NOTE: The air conditioning compressor will not engage
until the engine has been running for about 10 seconds.
