Operating the system primarily in Fresh
mode is recommended. Use
Recirculation mode temporarily only
when needed. Prolonged operation of the
heater in Recirculation mode and without
the air conditioning ON can cause
fogging of the windshield. In addition,
prolonged use of the air conditioning ON
in Recirculation mode may result in
excessively dry, dehumidified air in the
cabin and may promote formation of
musty vent odor due to stagnant air.
To prevent serious injury or death:
• Continued climate control system
operation in the recirculated air
position may allow humidity to increase
inside the vehicle that could fog the
windshield and the side windows and
obscure visibility.
• Do not sleep in a vehicle with the air
conditioning or heating system on.
• Continued climate use of recirculated
air may cause drowsiness or sleepiness,
and loss of vehicle control. Set the air
intake control to the outside (fresh) air
position while driving.
