Timer mode activation: (vehicles with the
Interior Air Quality system have no timer
mode) Press and hold the recirculation but-
ton for at least 3 seconds to activate a
recirculation timer mode. The amber LED
in the recirculation button will flash 5 times
to show that the timer mode is being acti-
vated. In timer mode, each time the recir-
culation button is pressed, the climate
control system will recirculate the air in the
passenger compartment for 5-12 minutes,
depending on the outside air temperature,
and then revert back to fresh air.
•
Timer mode deactivation: Press and hold
the recirculation button for 3 seconds. The
amber LED in the recirculation button will
illuminate steadily for 5 seconds to show a
return to "normal" mode.
•
In normal mode, when the recirculation
button is pressed, the climate control sys-
tem will recirculate the air in the passenger
compartment until the recirculation button
is pressed again.
•
Timer mode memory: If the vehicle is
turned off while timer mode is active, timer
mode will still be active when the vehicle is
restarted.
Interior air quality sensor (option)
Some vehicles are equipped
with a multifilter and air quality
sensor. The filter separates
gases and particles, thereby
reducing the amounts of odors
and contaminants entering the
vehicle. The air quality sensor detects
increased levels of contaminants in the outside
air. When the air quality sensor detects conta-
minated outside air, the air intake closes and
the air inside the passenger compartment is
recirculated, i.e. no outside air enters the vehi-
cle. The filter also cleans recirculated passen-
ger compartment air.
MANAUTWhen the ECC system is in the AUTO mode,
the green LED in the button will be on.Operation±

sor (normal setting).

is now activated.2. No LED lights. Recirculation is not acti-
vated unless needed to cool the passenger
compartment in a warm climate.
3.
TheMAN LED lights. Recirculation is now
activated.
Keep in mind the following•
Make it a rule to have the air quality sensor
activated at all times.
•
Recirculation is limited in cold climates to
avoid fogging.
•
If window fogging occurs, you should
deactivate the air quality sensor.
•
If fogging occurs, use the defroster func-
tions for the windshield, side windows and
rear window, see page 66.
The filter should be changed at the intervals
recommended in the service schedule. How-
ever, if the vehicle is used in a severely conta-
minated environment, it may be necessary to
change the filter more frequently.
