The temperature control switch is used to select the

(counterclockwise) for cool air, or to the right (clock-
wise) for hot air. There are 21 positions on the tem-
perature control switch ranging from full cool air to
full hot air.
Fresh Air Mode
Fresh air, or outside air, is circulated through the
heating and air conditioning system unless the recir-
culation mode, if equipped, is turned on.
Recirculation Mode
The recirculation mode is only available on vehicles
with air conditioning.
The recirculation mode limits the amount of outside
air entering the cab. Press the recirculation button to
prevent dusty or smoky air from entering the cab.
The recirculation mode can also be used to decrease
the time required to cool or heat the cab interior dur-
ing extreme outside temperature conditions. When
the recirculation mode is on, the recirculation indica-
tor will illuminate. See
Fig. 7.2.
The recirculation mode is not available when the air
selection switch is in one of the following modes:
•
floor/defrost mode
•
selection between floor/defrost mode and de-
frost mode
•
defrost mode
When the recirculation mode is turned on, it will stay
on for 20 minutes, or until the recirculation button is
pressed again, or the air selection switch is turned to
a defrost mode.
IMPORTANT: The HVAC system enters a partial
recirculation mode for five minutes after being in
full recirculation mode for 20 minutes. This cycle
repeats every 20 minutes.
