The air recirculation system minimises the  
entry of outside air and the air in the  
passenger compartment is recirculated.  
The humidity increases, and the windows  
can mist up. The quality of the passenger  
compartment air deteriorates which may  
cause the vehicle occupants to feel drowsy.  
Air distribution to V:  
The air recirculation system is  
automatically switched off, to speed up  
window demisting and prevent fogging.
