Automatic Air Recirculation Control
AUC/recirculated-air mode
If the air outside the car has an unpleasant
odour or contains pollutants, the outside air
supply car can be shut off. The air inside the car
is then recirculated.
Press the button repeatedly to call
up an operating mode:
> LED off: outside air is constantly entering
the car.
> Left-hand LED on, AUC mode: a sensor
detects pollutants in the outside air and
shuts it off automatically.
> Right-hand LED on, recirculated-air mode:
outside air supply is shut off permanently. If
there is condensation on the window sur-
face, switch off recirculated-air mode and
increase the air flow if applicable. Ensure
that air can flow towards the windscreen.
The recirculated-air mode should not be
used continuously for lengthy periods, as
the quality of the air inside the car will otherwise
gradually deteriorate.<
Via the button on the steering wheel
You can switch quickly between recirculated-air
mode and the previous mode using a button
on
the steering wheel, see page 9.
