Using vents without AC compressor
It's finally getting cool enough in the morning to operate without AC, but I prefer to travel with the windows up. I've noticed that I can select outside air flow on the Auto Dual Climate Control System, but as soon as I increase the fan speed it kicks on the AC. Is there something simple I'm missing? I just don't want to have to turn the AC on and then back off to get the outside air flowing in.

I looked at the manual this morning so I'm probably just slow. From an off state I hit the external air flow button which comes on, but there's little to no fan. Hitting the fan speed turns on the compressor. I found the bit about pressing the mode button to lock in the current air delivery setting so maybe I need to hit the mode button before adjusting the fan speed.
