Fresh/Recirc Lever

The fresh/recirc lever determines whether fresh outside air or recirculated passenger compartment air enters the vehicle's heater and ventilation system. Moving the fresh/recirc lever to the recirculate position closes the blower mode door. This provides the quickest air delivery. In this position, outside air is not delivered to the passenger compartment. Because the vehicle is equipped with a full-time outside air system, a small amount of outside air constantly enters the passenger compartment. The recirculate mode heats the passenger compartment faster. During normal heater operation, use the fresh mode in order to prevent window fogging.
