Air distribution – recirculation
Recirculation can be used to shut out exhaust
fumes, smoke, etc., from the passenger com-
partment.
The air in the passenger
compartment is then recircu-
lated, i.e., no air from outside
the car is taken into the car
when this function is acti-
vated. 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 fog-
ging, or stale air when the recirculation func-
tion is selected by automatically switching off
the function after a certain length of time,
depending on the ambient temperature. Acti-
vate/deactivate the function under Climate
settings Recirculation timer
. See My Car
– introduction (p. 76) for a description of the
menu system.
NOTE
When Defroster is selected, recirculation is
always deactivated.
