INTERNAL AIR
RECIRCULATION
Turn cursor Bto position
v.
It is advisable to activate air recirculation
during vehicle stops in queues or tunnels
to prevent the introduction of polluted air
from the outside.
Do not use the function for a long time,
particularly if there are many passengers
on board, to prevent the windows from
misting up.
IMPORTANT The internal air recircula-
tion system makes it possible to reach the
required “heating” or “cooling” condi-
tions faster. Do not use the air recircula-
tion function on rainy/cold days as it would
considerably increase the possibility of the
windows misting inside.
