Rijc99 is correct.

The button is to enable/disable "S-Flow" mode. See screenshot below from page 374 of the Owner's Manual:



Hope this helps,

Its good for days when you want the maximum amount of air going to the front. Or, you want low fan speed but more force on the front vents.

I always use the Auto modes myself year-round.

If you want to turn the A/C compressor Off from the dash - first make sure the Recir/Fresh is not in the Auto mode (center green light) and then turn Off the AUTO button.
