If the air distribution regulator of the manual air conditioning system is turned to
position.
WARNING
Stale air can quickly make the driver tired and affect their concentration, which in turn can cause
collisions, accidents and serious injuries.
Never use the air recirculation mode for an extended period as no fresh air will enter the vehicle
interior.
If the cooling system is switched off, condensation can form on the windows very quickly in air
recirculation mode and reduce visibility considerably.
Switch off the air recirculation mode when it is no longer required.
NOTICE
In vehicles with an air conditioning system, do not smoke when the air recirculation mode is
switched on. The smoke can leave a residue on the cooling system evaporator and the dust and
pollen filter with pollution filter insert, producing a lasting unpleasant odour.
When reversing the vehicle, or when the wash and wipe system is being used, the air recirculation
mode will switch on to prevent odours from entering the vehicle interior.
Climatronic
If the outside temperature is very high, the manual air recirculation mode can be activated for a
short time to help cool the vehicle interior more quickly.
