Automatic recirculation
An air quality sensor detects increased con-
centrations of pollutants in the outside air
and automatically switches to recirculation
mode.
If the air quality sensor located in the climate
control system detects polluted outside air,
the sensor decides whether the air pollution
can be reduced by the factory-installed po llu-
tant filte r or whether it is necessa ry to switch
to recirculat io n. Wit h heavy concentrations of
pollutan t s, the climate control system is
switched automatically to recircula t ion mode
a nd the supply of outside air is blocked. As
soon as the concentration of po llutants in the
outside air drops, fresh air is supplied to the
vehicle interior again.
In the event that the windows fog up dur ing
automatic recircu lation, press the®
button
immediately.
Under cert ain ope rat ing cond itions, a utomat ic
recirculation is switched off automatically.
When outs ide temperatures
are below about
50 °F (+10 °C), automatic recirculat ion is lim-
ited to 30 seconds.
