minated outside air, the air intake closes and
the air inside the passenger compartment is
recirculated, i.e. no outside air enters the vehi-
cle. The filter also cleans recirculated passen-
ger compartment air.
When the ECC system is in the AUTO mode,
the green LED will be on.
Recirculation
Press this switch to engage the recirculation
function (air in the passenger compartment
recirculates – no fresh air enters the compart-
ment). The LED in the switch will light up to
indicate that the function is engaged.
•
Use this function if the outside air is con-
taminated with exhaust gases, smoke, etc
or to heat/cool the vehicle quickly.
•
Recirculation should not be used for more
than 15 minutes. If your windows begin to
fog or mist, make sure that the recirculation
function is switched off.
•
Selecting Defroster automatically
switches recirculation off.
•
Timer mode activation: (Vehicles equipped
with the Interior Air Quality system have no
timer mode) Press and hold the recircula-
tion button for at least 3 seconds to acti-
vate a recirculation timer mode. The amber
LED in the recirculation button will flash 5
times to show that the timer mode is being
activated. In timer mode, each time the
recirculation button is pressed, the climate
control system will recirculate the air in the
passenger compartment for
5 – 12 minutes, depending on the outside
air temperature, and then revert back to
fresh air.
•
Timer mode deactivation: Press and hold
the recirculation button for 3 seconds. The
amber LED in the recirculation button will
illuminate steadily for 5 seconds to show a
return to "normal" mode.
•
In normal mode, when the recirculation
button is pressed, the climate control sys-
tem will recirculate the air in the passenger
compartment until the recirculation button
is pressed again.
•
Timer mode memory: If the vehicle is
turned off while timer mode is active, timer
mode will still be active when the vehicle is
restarted.

This function automatically regulates the
Electronic Climate Control system so that

functions will still be controlled automatically.
Pressing the
AUTO button overrides any set-
tings that were previously made manually.
