Air distribution – recirculation
Recirculation can be used to shut out exhaust fumes, smoke, etc., from the passenger compartment.
The air in the passenger compartment is then recirculated, i.e., no air from outside the car is taken into the car when this function is activated. The indicator light in the button will illuminate when recirculation is selected.
If the air in the car recirculates for too long, there is a risk of condensation forming on the insides of the windows, especially in winter.
Timer
The timer function minimizes the risk of fogging, or stale air when the recirculation function is selected by automatically switching off the function after a certain length of time, depending on the ambient temperature. Activate/deactivate the function under My Car – introduction for a description of the menu system. . See
Note
When Defroster is selected, recirculation is always deactivated.
