When air recirculation mode is switched on, no fresh air enters the vehicle interior →
.
Switch air recirculation mode on and off in the air conditioning block at the bottom edge of the screen or in the air conditioning
menu.
When does air recirculation mode switch off?
Air recirculation mode switches itself off automatically if one of the following conditions is met:
— The defrost function is switched on.
— A sensor detects that condensation might form on the vehicle’s windows.
WARNING
A lacking fresh air supply can lead to restricted visibility due to misted-up windows and to fast driver fatigue due to the stale air. This
can lead to collisions and accidents and cause serious or fatal injuries.
● Use air recirculation mode for a short period only.
● Switch off the air recirculation mode as soon as it is no longer required.
NOTICE
Tobacco smoke can leave a residue on the evaporator of the air conditioning system and the enhanced air filter with activated carbon,
producing a lasting unpleasant odour.
● To prevent lasting unpleasant odours, do not smoke in the vehicle when air recirculation mode is switched on.
When reversing the vehicle or when the window wipe/wash system is being used, the air recirculation mode of Climatronic will
switch on to prevent odours from entering the vehicle interior.
