The vehicle heater kicks out of recirculation mode after 5 or 10 minutes. This often brings outside auto fumes into the vehicle. In order to stop the fumes and use recirc again you have to push that button, taking your eyes off the road. The dealer says to use 'max air' but that results in hot air blowing in your face. Both situations require distracted driving, a safety risk. I would like for the recirc mode to remain as long as I want.
