To set the HVAC system to re-circulation mode, press the air intake
control switch once. The lamp on the switch turns ON, indicating
that re-circulation mode is active.
In this mode, the air from inside the passenger compartment will be
sucked by the blower and utilized further to ventilate/cool/ heat
the cabin.
For quick cabin cooling/heating or while driving through dusty/
polluted regions, the recirculation mode should be selected. Driving
with this mode active may lead to better fuel economy and longer
HVAC filter life.
However, running the air conditioner in the re-circulation mode for
long will makes the cabin air too dry and the oxygen level drops
inside cabin turning the air stale. On the contrary, keeping air intake
control in the recirculation mode for long, with the air conditioner
switched OFF, will make the cabin air too humid and the windshield/
windows are more likely to fog from the inside.
At every ignition cycle, the Re-circulation mode stays active by
default.

The air conditioning system can be switched ON/OFF by the “AC
BUTTON” in the climate control system. An LED is also incorporated
on the button to indicates the status. The air conditioner is
operational only when both the engine and blower are running.
When the air conditioner is ON, air gets cooled and de-humidified
before being circulated inside the cabin. In hot weather conditions, it
will take slightly longer to cool the interior as compared to cooler
weather. Fuel consumption will be relatively higher if the vehicle is
being driven with the air conditioner.
The following steps outline the procedure to switch the AC ‘ON’
1. Keep windows open/rolled down (carefully during rainy
season)
2. Adjust the blower speed as required
3. Select the air distribution mode as desired
