Activating/deactivating airrecirculation mode
You can deactivate the flow of fresh air if unpleasant odors are entering the vehicle from outside. The air already inside the vehicle will then be recirculated.
WARNING
Fogged windows impair visibility,
endangering you and others. If the windows
begin to fog on the inside, switching off the
air recirculation mode immediately should
clear interior window fogging. If interior
window fogging persists, make sure the air
conditioning is activated, or press the
button.
Turn the SmartKey to position 2 in the ignition lock.
To activate: press the rocker switch up or down.

Air-recirculation mode is activated
automatically at high outside
temperatures. The indicator lamp in the
rocker switch is not lit when
automatic air-recirculation mode is
activated.
Outside air is added after about 30
minutes.
To deactivate: press the rocker switch up or down.
The indicator lamp in the rocker switch goes out.

cooling with air dehumidification is
deactivated
• after approximately 30 minutes if outside
