Introduction
In air recirculation mode, no outside air enters the vehicle interior.
Manual air recirculation mode
• Press the
button on the control panel to switch manual air recirculation mode on
and off.
Automatic air recirculation mode (Climatronic)
In automatic air recirculation mode, fresh air will enter the vehicle interior. The air recirculation
mode will switch on automatically if the system detects an increase in the concentration of noxious
substances in the outside air. The air recirculation mode will switch off as soon as the level of
noxious substances has returned to normal. The system cannot detect unpleasant odours.

Air recirculation mode with Air Care Climatronic
The vehicle is fitted with an allergen filter. When Air Care is activated
air recirculation mode of the air conditioning system is maximised as far as is permitted by the risk
of window fogging depending on the interior humidity and outside temperature. The air recirculation
mode is automatically regulated and features continuous adjustment in order to prevent fatigue of
the vehicle occupants.
When is the air recirculation mode deactivated?
Air recirculation mode is deactivated in the following situations
• If the
button on the Climatronic control panel is pressed.
• If the air distribution regulator of the manual air conditioning system is turned to
• If the sensor detects that the vehicle's windows might mist up.
WARNING
Stale air can quickly make the driver tired and affect their concentration, which in turn can
cause collisions, accidents and serious injuries.
• Never use the air recirculation mode for an extended period as no fresh air will enter
the vehicle interior.
• If the cooling system is switched off, the windows can mist up very quickly in air
recirculation mode and reduce visibility considerably.
• Switch off the air recirculation mode when it is no longer required.
NOTICE
In vehicles with an air conditioning system, do not smoke when the air recirculation mode
is switched on. The smoke can leave a residue on the evaporator and the dust and pollen
filter with pollution filter insert, producing a lasting unpleasant odour.
When reversing the vehicle or when the wash and wipe system is being used, the air
recirculation mode will switch on to prevent odours from entering the vehicle interior.

If the outside temperature is very high, brief activation of manual air recirculation mode helps
