the air changes.
The engagement of the recirculation system
makes it possible to reach the required heating
or cooling conditions faster. It is, however,
inadvisable to use it on rainy/cold days as it
can increase the possibility of the windows
fogging. When the outside temperature is low,
recirculation is forced off to prevent the
