? On defrost settings......

Hey guys...

On my Max when you have the far most right buttons pushed in(not at the same time) I believe the windshield defrost and the w/s defrost/feet warmer selections, I am unable to get the inside/outside air button to work as in the little green light to come on. It works for all the other settins, just not those 2.

Sort of stinks when you are sitting traffic and inhaling some exhaust or someones cigarette smoke

Maybe its supposed to be that way but hell, I drive so much now I don't even notice.

Any ideas?

Recirculating air traps moisture in your car which fogs up your windows. You need fresh air then your heating and especially defrosting. Thats why they disable the rec. button when the defroster is on. Pretty good thinking on Nissan's part actually!

I just wish there was a setting for defrost and dash vents so you can get the windows fog free but also get some ventilation to the face, etc.

Or is there a trick to this?
