If the a ir qu alit y se nsor located in the climate control system
detects polluted outside air, the sensor decides whether the air
pollution can be reduced by the factory -ins tal led pollutant filter or
whether it is necessary to switch to recirculation. With heavy
concentrations of pollutants, the climate control system is switched
automatically to rec irculation mode and the supply of outside air is
b locked. As soon as the concentration of pollutants in the outs ide
air drops , fresh air is supplied to the vehicle interior again.
In the event that the w indows fog up during automatic recirculation,
press the
[ liW ) button immediately.
Under certain operating conditions, automatic recirculation is
switched off automatically. When outside temperatures are below
about 50 °F
( + 10 °C), automatic recirculation is limited to
30 seconds . When outs ide temperatures are below about 30 °F (-
1 °Cl, automatic r ecirculation is limited to 15 seconds .•
