🚗💨 Wildfire Smoke Tip: Use Your Vehicle’s Recirculation Button 🌫️
With wildfire smoke affecting our air quality, here’s a simple way to reduce the amount of smoke entering your vehicle:
🔄 Turn on your A/C and press the Recirculation button (the one with the car icon and a circular arrow inside).
When activated, your vehicle reuses the air already inside the cabin instead of continuously pulling smoky air from outside. This can help:
âś… Reduce smoke and other airborne particles entering your vehicle
âś… Improve cabin air quality
âś… Help your A/C cool the cabin more efficiently
💡 Bonus Tip: If your cabin air filter hasn’t been changed in a while, now is a great time. A clean cabin air filter helps trap dust, pollen, and smoke particles and provides you and your passengers a clean breathing environment.
Stay safe, limit your exposure to the smoky air when possible, and if your vehicle is due for a cabin air filter replacement, we’re here to help!
