-----------------------

The best dehumidifier in winter is to turn OFF the recirculate, and pump
bone-dry air into your car, displacing the moisture from your wet floor
mats. Works best in areas where winter is DRY.

Your Owner's Manual says you should use the AC occasionally in the
winter to keep it lubed. It will only cut in above a certain under-hood
temperature.
