Recirculated air mode
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle
and then fed back into the interior.
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from
getting into the vehicle, for example when driving through a tunnel or
when standing in a traffic jam.

WARNING
You should not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time,

dent increases. Switch recirculated air mode off as soon as the windows
begin misting up.
