Does anyone know if the air from the fan is fresh air when the AC button is not pressed, or is it just recirculated air? Seems the air is recirculated when the AC button is pushed, but is there any way to get fresh air? Does the system automatically inject a small amount of fresh air instead of just recirculated air?
My wife's 2010 Escape Limited has a recirc button so you can choose between fresh air and recirculated air. The Volvo S40 I owned before the ex had the same thing, and automatically changed over to fresh air for a few minutes every so often when the AC was on.
Now that fall is here, I've always wondered if I'm getting fresh air when I put the fan on. I don't really like driving with the windows open much, especially on the highway.
Thanks.
