Default 07 RX350 Air Circulation / Fresh Air situation

I use inside air recirculation most of the time (yellow light on button), but I noticed all day today that while I can turn it on, it goes off after a few minutes going into fresh air (outside) mode automatically.
This never happened before (When I pressed the inside air button it stayed on). Is something wrong? I don't have the defrosters on, although it was very cold today. The manual does not go into detail about this, so I am asking here.

You can have the dealer re-program it so that what you set on the re-circulate button sticks until you change it. Otherwise the climate control system will operate it as it see fit.

Are you using "AUTO" mode on your climate control?

Yes
What is strange is that this happened yesterday, but not before. It was very cold yesterday.

Take it out of auto and it will stay in recir, otherwise the computer controls the recir.
