cally after 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the

prove the air quality for individuals in the passen-
ger compartment.
&" Fragrance
Applies to: vehicles with fragrance function
The fragrance function will dispense a scent in
the vehicle interior. It is dispensed through the
front outer vents. This will produce a pleasant

heat the vehicle interior. To use this function,
press and hold the button for more than two
seconds while the ignition is switched off. The
function switches off automatically after about

Z\ WARNING
— You should not use the recirculation mode
for an extended period of time, because no
fresh air is drawn in and the windows can
fog when cooling mode is switched off. This
increases the risk of an accident.
— Individuals with reduced sensitivity to pain
or temperature could develop burns when
using the seat heating* function. To reduce
the risk of injury, these individuals should
not use seat heating*.
