pg. 60 Manual climate control with air conditioning, (A/ C)
Recirculation
Recirculation can be used to shut out stale air, exhaust, etc. from the passenger compartment. The air in the passenger
compartment is then recirculated, i. e. no air from outside the car is taken into the car when this function is activated.
Recirculation (together with the air conditioning system) cools the passenger compartment more quickly in warm
weather.
If you allow the air in the car to recirculate, there is a risk of icing and fogging, especially in winter. The timer
function minimizes the risk of ice, misting and stale air.
Activate the timer function as follows:
Press for more than 3 seconds. The LED flashes for 5 seconds. The air recirculates in the car for 3-12 minutes
depending on the outside temperature.
The timer function is activated each time you press . To switch off the timer function:
Press again for more than 3 seconds. The LED lights for 5 seconds to confirm your selection. Recirculation is
always disconnected when you select
Defroster.
Air distribution
Use the air distribution control positions (marked with dots) between the different symbols to fine-tune air distribution
for maximum comfort.
