How to Turn on the External Circulation in the 10th Generation Civic?

Press the second button from the left on the air conditioning panel, and when the light turns off, the external circulation will be activated. Below is an introduction to car air conditioning: 1. Introduction: The car air conditioning system is a device that cools, heats, ventilates, and purifies the air inside the vehicle. 2. Function: It can filter the air, removing dust and pollen, providing a comfortable riding environment for passengers, reducing driver fatigue, and improving driving safety. 3. Classification: Based on the adjustment method, it is divided into fully automatic adjustment (using calculation and comparison circuits, controlling the adjustment mechanism through sensor signals and preset signals to automatically adjust temperature and air volume) and microcomputer-controlled fully automatic adjustment (using a microcomputer as the control center to achieve comprehensive and multifunctional optimal control and adjustment of the in-car air environment).
I just bought a tenth-generation Civic and it took me a while to figure out how to turn on the fresh air mode. On the air conditioning control panel, look for the button marked with a car and an arrow icon, usually located to the lower right of the steering wheel or in the center of the dashboard. Press it lightly—if the indicator light switches from recirculation mode to fresh air mode (showing outside air flowing in), you’ve succeeded. Using fresh air mode allows outside air to enter, which is especially effective at preventing window fogging, particularly on rainy or humid days. I’ve tried driving on the highway with fresh air mode on, and the cabin stays refreshingly comfortable without that stuffy feeling. In the city, I switch between modes as needed—for example, using recirculation more often on smoggy days. The button is intuitive and easy to operate, so even beginners can get the hang of it quickly. Give it a try!
