Air distribution control


Read and observe and
The recirculation mode prevents contaminated outside air getting into the In-
terior of the vehicle.
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle and then
fed back into the interior.
Switching on and off
›
Press the  button.
When the recirculation mode is activated, the warning light below the button

Heating and manual air conditioning system
If the air distribution control is set to position  when the recirculation modes
is switched on, the recirculated-air mode is switched off. Recirculated air mode
can be switched on again from this position by repeatedly pressing the symbol
key .
When the  is switched on and the temperature regulator is turned to the
left, the recirculated-air mode is switched on.
Climatronic
Climatronic may have an air quality sensor for the detection of the pollutant
concentration in the sucked-in air.
If a considerable increase in concentration of pollutants is recognised by the
air quality sensor, recirculated air mode will temporarily be switched on.
When the pollutant concentration decreases to the normal level, the recircula-
ted air mode is automatically switched off.
This automatic on/off switching of the recirculated-air mode can be activated
or deactivated in the Infotainment
ter Setting the heating and the cooling system.
If the button  is pressed when the recirculation modes is switched on, the
recirculated-air mode is switched off.
Depending on the moisture conditions in the vehicle interior the air recircula-
tion may also shut-down automatically.

WARNING
The recirculation system cannot be switched on for a longer period of time,
because there is no supply of fresh air from the outside. "Stale air" may re-
sult in fatigue in the driver and occupants, reduce attention levels and also
cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases.
Switch off recirculated air mode as soon as the windows start to mist up.
CAUTION
We recommend not smoking in the vehicle when the recirculating air operation
is switched on. The smoke sucked from inside the vehicle is deposited on the
evaporator of the air conditioner. This produces a permanent odour when the
air conditioning system is operating which can only be eliminated through con-
siderable effort and expense (replacement of compressor).
Note
The automatic activation/deactivation of the air recirculation with Climatronic
only works if the outside temperature is higher than approx. 2 °C.
