Recirculation; Controlling Blower - Skoda Superb Owner's Manual

The interior temperature can be set between +18 °C and +26 ℃. The interior tem-
perature is regulated automatically within this range.
If a temperature lower than +18 °C is selected, a blue symbol lights up at the start
of the numerical scale.
If a temperature higher than +26 °C is selected, a red symbol lights up at the start
of the numerical scale.
At both end positions, Climatronic functions at maximum cooling/heating output
and the temperature is not regulated.
CAUTION
Lengthy and uneven distribution of the air flow out of the vents (especially
around the feet) and large differences in temperature, for example, when getting
out of the vehicle, can cause susceptible individuals to catch a cold.

Recirculation


First read and observe the introductory information given on page 100.
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from getting into
the vehicle, for example when driving through a tunnel or when standing in a
traffic jam.
If a considerable increase in concentration of pollutants is recognised by the air
quality sensor, recirculated air mode will temporarily be switched off.
If the concentration of pollutants decreases to the normal level, the air distribu-
tion control is automatically switched off so that fresh air can be guided into the
vehicle interior.
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle and then
fed back into the interior. When the automatic air distribution control is switched
on, an air quality sensor measures the concentration of pollutants in the drawn in
air.

›
Press the button  or press the symbol button  again until the warning
lights in the button go out.
WARNING
Do not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time, as "stale"
air can cause fatigue of the driver and passengers, 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.
Note
If the windscreen mists up, press the symbol button . Press the symbol
■
button  when the windscreen is demisted.
The automatic air distribution control operates only if the outside temperature
■
is higher than approx. 2 °C.

Controlling blower


First read and observe the introductory information given on page 100.
The Climatronic system controls the blower stages automatically in line with the
interior temperature.
However, the blower stages can be manually adapted to suit your particular
needs.
›
Repeatedly pressing the symbol button  on the left or right reduces or increa-
