WARNING
•
For road safety all windows must be clear of ice, snow, and condensa-
tion. This is essential to ensure good visibility. Please familiarise yourself
with the correct operation of the heating and ventilation system, including
the anti-fog/defrost functions for the windscreens.
•
In air recirculation mode, no cold air from the outside enters the vehicle

Therefore, never leave the air recirculation mode switched on for a long
time (risk of accident).
