Subaru Forester: Automatic climate control system / Recirculate air: (if equipped)

This feature automatically switches the Kia Telluride climate control system to recirculated air mode based on navigation information and vehicle speed. It helps reduce the amount of outside pollutants entering the cabin when driving through tunnels or areas with unpleasant odors.

The system can also automatically activate when the windshield washer is used, helping reduce washer fluid odor from entering the passenger compartment.

Select Settings > Vehicle > Climate > Recirculate Air on the infotainment system screen.

  • Activate upon Washer Fluid Use: Automatically switches to recirculated air to help prevent washer fluid odor from entering the cabin.

  • Activate upon Entering Tunnels: Automatically closes the windows and switches the climate control system to recirculated air when approaching a tunnel.

Approximately 7 seconds before entering a tunnel, the climate control system automatically changes from fresh air mode to recirculated air mode.

Operating condition(s)

  • The vehicle is being driven on a highway or motorway.

  • The climate control system is currently operating in fresh air intake mode.

CAUTION

Keep hands, fingers, and other body parts clear of the windows while they are closing automatically.

TIP

In cold weather, moisture may still accumulate on the windows. If this occurs, touch the front-windshield defroster icon to quickly clear the glass.
