Pontiac 2009 torrent Automobile User Manual


 
Using these settings together for long periods of time
may cause the air inside of the vehicle to become
too dry. To prevent this from happening, after the air
inside of the vehicle has cooled, turn the recirculation
mode off.
The air conditioning system removes moisture from the
air, so a small amount of water might drip under the
vehicle while idling or after turning off the engine.
; (Outside Air): Press to turn the outside air mode
on. An indicator light comes on to show that outside
air is on. Air from outside the vehicle will circulate
throughout the vehicle. The outside air mode can be
used with all modes, but it cannot be used with
the recirculation mode. Pressing
; will cancel the
recirculation mode.
@ (Recirculation): Press to turn the recirculation
mode on. An indicator light comes on to show
recirculation is on. The air inside the vehicle will be
recirculated through the climate control system and the
vehicle, not from outside the vehicle. It can be used
to prevent outside air and odors from entering the
vehicle or to help cool the air inside the vehicle more
quickly. Avoid using the recirculation mode during
high periods of humidity and cool outside temperatures
since this may result in increased window fogging. If
window fogging is experienced, select the defrost mode.
Recirculation mode is not available in floor, defog or
defrost modes and will shut off automatically and change
to outside air. If the button is selected in these modes,
the indicator will flash. This helps prevent window
fogging and moisture building up within the cabin.
