What is that button for? Many drivers don&#8217;t know this, but it activates the recirculation mode of your air conditioning and heater in the car. This is primarily intended to keep polluted or even toxic air out of the car. This can come in handy when, for example, you drive into a tunnel or get caught in a traffic jam.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-content\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1140\" height=\"855\" src=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/recirculatiestand-2-1140x855.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-127773\"><\/figure>\n<h2>Easier cooling<\/h2>\n<p>This recirculation mode not only keeps odors out of the car. It also makes it easier to cool the air inside the car. This is because the air conditioner does not have to constantly process hot or humid air from outside.<\/p>\n<p>Also read: <a href=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/hittegolf-dit-moet-je-wel-en-niet-doen-met-je-auto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Heat wave? This is what you should and should not do with your car<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Your car&#8217;s air conditioning system is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.anwb.nl\/auto\/onderhoud-en-reparatie\/auto-onderdelen\/airco\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">powered<\/a> by the engine. When the A\/C doesn&#8217;t have to work as hard, the engine doesn&#8217;t have to work as hard, and you&#8217;ll notice that in fuel consumption. In the case of an electric car, you&#8217;ll notice an increase in battery power and your range.<\/p>\n<h2>Save fuel<\/h2>\n<p>Some studies show that recirculation mode can provide fuel savings of up to 10 percent. The difference is especially noticeable if you make a lot of short trips. In that case, the air conditioner has to work hard to cool your car down considerably in a short period of time.<\/p>\n<p>You can also give the air conditioning in your car a helping hand by first opening the windows well when driving off in a warm car. It is best to do this until the air from your vents feels cooler than the outside temperature.<\/p>\n<h2>Fresh air<\/h2>\n<p>Are you making a longer drive? Then it is wise not to turn on the recirculation mode continuously. This is because you are limiting the supply of fresh air. This increases the percentage of carbon dioxide in your car, which in turn can lead to fatigue, poor concentration or reduced reaction time.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-autorai-nl wp-block-embed-autorai-nl\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"mWAkO54Avn\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/autorai.nl\/hittetip-met-deze-tip-koel-je-binnen-enkele-seconden-het-interieur-van-je-auto-af\/\">Heat tip: with this tip you cool the interior of your car in seconds<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arrow It all revolves around a small button: on it you see an icon of a car with an arrow&hellip;","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":121783,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[93],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-121829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-car-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Why you can save a lot of fuel in the summer with this button - All cars news<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/all-car-news.com\/en\/why-you-can-save-a-lot-of-fuel-in-the-summer-with-this-button\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Why you can save a lot of fuel in the summer with this button - All cars news\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Arrow It all revolves around a small button: on it you see an icon of a car with an arrow inside.
