 Recirculation (see also page 48)
Press this  switch to engage the recirculation function (air in the passenger  compartment recirculates - no fresh air
enters the compartment). The LED  in the switch will light up to indicate that the function is engaged.
Use this  function if the outside air is contaminated with exhaust gases, smoke, etc or to heat/cool the car quickly.
Recirculation should not be  used for more than 15 minutes. If your windows  begin to fog or mist, make sure that the
recirculation function is switched off.

button for at least 3 seconds to activate a  recirculation timer mode. The amber LED  in the recirculation button will
flash  5 times to show that the timer mode is being activated. In the time mode, each time the recirculation button is
pressed, the climate  control system will recirculate the air in the passenger  compartment for 5 to 12 minutes, depending
on the outside air and  then revert back to fresh air.
Timer mode deactivation:  Press and  hold the recirculation button for at least 3 seconds. The amber LED  in the
recirculation button will illuminate steadily for 5 seconds to show a  return to "normal" mode.
 In normal mode, when the recirculation button is pressed, the climate  control system will recirculate the air in the
passenger  compartment until the recirculation button is pressed again.

car is restarted.

Movement of the seat can be  STOPPED at any  time by pressing any  button on the power seat control panel.
Do not adjust the seat while driving. The seat should be  adjusted so that the brake pedal can be  depressed  fully. In
addition, position the seat as far rearward as comfort and  control allow.
The seat rails on the floor  must  not be  obstructed in any  way when the seat is in motion.

happens, remove the object  and  wait 20 seconds before operating the seat again.
* This option is only available on the driver's seat.
