Default HVAC setting question

I had mine for about 2 years now and was wondering when I drive with just the vent on and not a/c I like to have the air coming in from the outside like I have it set now but every time I start the car it switches back to recirculation mode. is there a setting to keep it switched to how its set on in my pic?

The car has a smog sensor to determine when to shut off the outside air and use recirculation. Further, you can change the sensitivity of the sensor in the nav screen. You might need to clean the sensor or reset the sensitivity level.
