    "That is the way it is supposed to operate. If you manually reduce the fan speed you will slow down the cooling of the interior. Unlike many conventional AC units the Prius has a variable speed compressor that will operate at high speed for quick cooling. If you defeat the Auto function it will run much longer to bring the temperature down to the set point. The high fan speed will dry out the ducts and reduce the possibility of mold growth."


    I noticed you posted the reply above to someobody haveing problems with their AC (mold). Anyhow, I live in Bellingham and noticed you are in kent. I am starting to get the smell..what do you recommend?? ALso, any sprays out there to help the smell out?
