Recirculation

SD DM 07.00.04

The recirculation mode limits the amount of outside air entering the cab. It can be used to prevent dusty or smoky air from entering the cab. The recirculation mode can also decrease the time required to cool or heat the cab interior during extreme outside temperature conditions. Press the recirculation button to activate it, or cancel it. When the recirculation mode is ON, the amber indicator on the recirculation button will be illuminated. See Fig..

Fig. 1, Air Selection Modes

The recirculation button will not work when the air-selection switch is in one of the following modes:

  • defog mode

  • the selection between defog mode and defrost mode

  • defrost mode

Note: To prevent the buildup of fumes or odors, and to prevent oxygen depletion inside the cab, the system switches from full-recirculation mode to partial-recirculation mode after 20 minutes. In extremely dusty or smoky conditions, the partial-recirculation mode can be overridden by pressing the recirculation button twice to obtain full-recirculation mode. This action resets the 20-minute timer.
