unfortunately when you choose AUTO the recirculate button will automatically turn off or on, it's only during the manual setting that it stays on/off, GLS STANDARD unit

Read your manual ... There is a process to turn off the re-circulation permanently ... Was able to do this before ...

Also you can turn on the aircon using the Auto Fan switch and not the Auto climate control switch ...

[Walter]

Press and hold nyo recirculation button for several seconds hanggat marinig nyo yun beep. Hindi na automatic magtturn off recirculatuon button nyan

There you go ... From someone who reads the owner's manual ...

Thanks Walter, I did read and follow the instructions carefully, and tried it several times but the result is still the same. Nevertheless thanks again for the reminder.

Your last resort would be to close the re-circulation vent physically and permanently ... This is what they do to European cars that are here ...

Thanks for the suggestion Walter, but I'm okay with using the A/C on manual mode. Actually, what I've encountered is after I have set the RECIRC BUTTON to stay ON PERMANENTLY based on the instructions on the user's manual...hehehe...There are times that when my son was the one turning on the A/C using the AUTO, the RECIRC Button actually is ON, but after sometime it automatically turns off. That's the reason why I said that using the AUTO will still turn off the RECIRC button, well again that is in my case.

Same thing happens to me too so i dont use auto mode anymore. Manual fan na lang.
Actually magulo rin instructions sa manual.

same experience. After setting it ON permanently, and then using auto climate, it will sometimes turn off recirculation. I'll notice it's off pag may naamoy ko parang galing labas kaya di na ko nagamit ng auto climate control, manual na lang

Sir, did you read the USER'S MANUAL and followed the instructions? hehehe...joke lang...

[Walter]

Remember ... Auto Climate control is different from Auto Fan switch ...

[Bmontero]

I also find AUTO CLIMATE feature strange for montero.
Logically, once you push AUTO assuming the aircon is OFF. Aircon will engage and recirculation should steadily turn ON even without pressing the recirculation button.

For montero after you Press AUTO, as you said reCirculation will turn OFF and vice versa.

Unless you press the fan speed or press the the temp adjustment button on the passenger side then thats the time it will turnOFF but recirculation would still remain ON

I've had a 07 rav which has Auto climate control (yes more than 10 years ago technology na sya) and never had the same weird processes which I assume will have the same for other car makers especially the highend ones with this feature.


In a good note, that make our Montero Distinctively Unique. Hahaha

This little details are not being exploited during sales.

But it creates unpleasant experience and Learn to swallow small unexpected imperfection.

Did you already set the air recirc to always ON per manual? Long press on the air recirc button while the AC is off?

Try what GLSTrend did. A bit long press of air recir then you hear 2 beep. Then you can ON in Auto switch while air recir will not off.

I am actually having similar issue with my WILDTRAK, I have to turn on the A/C using the RECIRC BUTTON for it to stay on permanently. This time I was too lazy to read the manual, so I ended up asking on the FB RANGER GROUP and the only solution that they have suggested is to turn on the A/C using the RECIRC BUTTON which what I am doing until now....hehehe.

If it's in full auto mode, I think the system will adjust based on inside ambient temp. If it deems it doesn't need to turn aircon to achieve target temp, it will just use fan. True in the case when you initially start your vehicle early in the morning. (malamig na yung loob ng kotse beforehand)

Imagine kung nasa Baguio ka and ang ambient temp is already at 20 deg Celsius tapos ang nilagay mo na target temp ay 24 deg Celsius. Then the system will sense that it's already cold inside the cabin and will just turn on the fan instead of the AC.

Ang problema na lang ay yung recirc mode. Sa ibang bansa kasi, default mode off yun to introduce fresh air sa loob ng sasakyan. Eh dito sa atin, usok lang papasok.

Yes i think thats the way it’s programmed. If naka auto mode, the system probabaly needs outside air sometimes kaya nawawala recirculation mode

Noticed this also sa cruze ko... pag naka full auto if na luha na desired temp makukuha mo din ang amoy sa labas kasi automatic disable ang recirculate...
