General notes
You can deactivate the flow of fresh air if
you are
in a tunnel or if unpleasant odours
are entering the vehicle from outside. The
air already inside the vehicle will then be
recirculated.
If you switch on air-recirculation mode,
the windows can mist up more quickly, in
particular at low temperatures. Only use
air-recirculation mode briefly to prevent
the windows misting up.
