blower speed in small steps. You should leave
the blower on at a low setting to prevent the win

Heating and cooling
� Switching air recirculation on/off
In air recirculation mode, the air from the interi
or of the vehicle is filtered and recirculated. This
setting prevents fumes etc. from entering the in
terior. We recommend switching on the air recir
culation mode when driving through a tunnel or
in traffic queues

!lliil REAR! Switching rear window heating on/
off
If the rear window heating is activated with the
ignition switched on, the battery management
determines whether or not the battery charge
level is sufficient for the rear window heating to
be switched on. Otherwise the rear window heat
ing operates when the engine is running, and
switches off automatically after about
10 - 20 minutes, depending on the outside tem
perature.
To switch on the rear window heating perma
nently, press and hold the
!lliil REAR!
button for at
least two seconds. This setting will be stored for
approximately 15 minutes after the ignition is
switched off.
A
WARNING
For reasons of safety you should not leave the
air recirculation switched on for too long. This
mode prevents fresh air from entering the ve
hicle, so the windows can mist over if the air
cooling is switched off. Bad visibility can
cause an accident.
