The automatic air recirculation mode should normally be left switched on at
all times.
The system is ready to operate approx. 30 seconds after the engine ignition
key has been turned. During this initial period, fresh air is fed into the car.
If the air purity sensor in the air conditioning system detects a certain
concentration of fumes in the outside air, the control unit will either pass the
incoming air through the pollution filter or automatically switch on the air
recirculation. If there is a high concentration of pollution in the outside air,
the climate control automatically switches to air recirculation and the supply
of air from the outside is cut off. As soon as the level of pollution decreases,
air is fed into the vehicle from the outside again.
The automatic air recirculation operates for a maximum period of 12 minutes.
If the windows mist up when the automatic air recirculation is on, press the
button immediately.
The automatic air recirculation switches itself off under certain circumstances
(for instance if
or
is selected). In "ECON" and at temperature of below
approx. 8°C below zero, the automatic air recirculation mode is limited to 12
seconds.
Switching the temperature display from °C to °F and vice
versa
The temperature display can be switched from °C (degrees
Celsius) to °F (degrees Fahrenheit) and vice versa.
