the system is deactivated: the ventila-
tion speed for the passenger compart-
ment air is zero (vehicle stationary),
you can however still feel a slight flow
of air when the vehicle is moving.
Recommended demisting option:
Turn controls 1, 2 and 4 to the
position.

This is the quickest option for de-icing
and demisting the side windows and
the windscreen.

Switching the air
recirculation on
Adjusting the ventilation
speed
Turn control 2 clockwise to increase the
air flow in the passenger compartment.
The passenger compartment is ven-
tilated by blown air. The blower deter-
mines how much air enters but vehicle
speed has a slight effect on this.
Press button 6: the integrated indicator
light comes on.
Prolonged use of air recirculation
can lead to condensation form-
ing on the side windows and wind-
screen, and discomfort due to the
use of non-renewed air in the pas-
senger compartment.
We therefore advise you to return to
normal mode (external air) as soon
as the air recirculation function is
no longer required, by pressing the
button 6 again.
Under these conditions, air is taken
from the passenger compartment and
is recirculated, with no air being taken
from outside the vehicle.
Air recirculation is for:
– isolating the vehicle from the exter-
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– lowering the passenger compart-
ment temperature as quickly as pos-
sible.
The de-icing function cannot be used with the air recirculation mode to avoid any risk of condensation forming on the wind-
screen and triggers the air conditioning and the integrated indicator light 3 to come on.
