In this mod e, air is drawn from inside the ve­

hicle and cooled (air recircu lation) The air
recirculation mode should not be se­lected for long periods of time as no fresh air is then supplied.
Note
Smoking should be avoided w hen air recir­
culation is selected , as the smoke drawn in from the vehicle interior deposits on the
evaporator of the air conditioner. This leads
to permanent odours when the air condi­
tioner is i n operation. These can only be
eliminated by exchanging the evaporator,
which is time-consuming and expensive.
Normal cooling
• Switch air condit ioner on by pressing
button 0
• Rotary
switch A to stage 1 -4 as re­
quired.
• Rotary regula
tor B to the desired air tem­perature (so that heating is also possible)
• Rotary regulator C to desired position
• Vents 3 and 4 set
as required.
I n this operating mode air is drawn in from
outside and cooled (fresh air operation)
