It is advisable to switch the internal air recirculation on
while standing in queues or in tunnels to prevent the
introduction of polluted air. 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 inside air recirculation system makes
it possible to reach the required heating or cooling
conditions faster.
Do not use the air recirculation function on rainy/cold
days as it would considerably increase the possibility of
the windows misting up.
