HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
Button E E – – A A ir r r ecirculation
Air recirculation is selected by pressing
this button. A warning lamp lights up in
the button.
Air recirculation is switched off by press-
ing the button again. The warning lamp
then goes out.
The air recirculation function prevents
strong outside smells from entering the
vehicle, for example when driving through
a tunnel or standing in a traffic jam.
Air recirculation can also be selected if
the vehicle is to be heated or cooled
quickly. In this mode, air is drawn in from
the vehicle interior and heated or cooled.
Warning
You s s hould n n ot u u se t t he a a ir r r ecircu-
lation m m ode f f or a a n e e xtended

Smoking should be avoided when air
recirculation is selected, as the smoke
drawn in from the vehicle interior
deposits on the evaporator of the air con-
ditioner. This leads to permanent odours
when the air conditioner is in operation.
These can only be eliminated by exchang-
ing the evaporator, which is time-consum-
ing and expensive.
Note
Buttons D and E can be used in combina-
tion.
