Default How do I set my air as recirculate?

My climate control keeps switching the air input to outside air. Is there a way to default the climate to recirculate? It's annoying.

Thanks. I found this thread:

But I find it hard to believe that we can do almost everything except switch over recirculate as default.

oddly enough, mine stays on recirculate. I wonder if this is bad.

Me too, it goes to the fresh mode when it's above 24C only (from what I can remember).

if you put the dial low enough it will stay in recirculate.
if you put the dial high enough it will stay in vent mode.
I forget at what temperature it moves but if you leave the temp control at cold then it will automatically go to recirculate mode even if you had it on vent mode.

That's how mine seems to work also.

I "think" it's at the interval between 65 and 66 degrees. I'll go out to my car on my break and check it to make sure.
