Points to observe before use
You can deactivate the flow of fresh air if unpleasant odors 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 fog up more quickly, in particular at low temperatures. Only use airrecirculation mode briefly to prevent the windows from fogging up.
