System Operation: Panel

When PANEL mode is selected:

• the recirculated air request button is enabled. If the recirculated air request button is selected (indicator on), the air inlet door closes, preventing outside air from entering the passenger compartment. If the recirculated air request button is not selected (indicator off), the air inlet door opens, allowing only outside air into the passenger compartment.
• the air distribution doors operate simultaneously to direct airflow to the instrument panel registers. A small amount of airflow from the floor duct is present.
• blended air temperature is available. Only when A/C compressor operation has been selected by pressing the A/C button (indicator on) can the airflow temperature be cooled below the outside air temperature.
• the blower motor is on and the speed is adjustable.
