HEATED SCREENS
With the engine running, the front (F) and rear
(R) screen heaters, may be switched on and off
in any mode, including with the climate control
system off.
The front screen heater switches off
automatically after 5 minutes, the rear screen
heater after 21 minutes.
In cold ambient conditions, the screen heaters
will switch on automatically when the engine is
started. The screen heaters will also activate
automatically at temperatures below 5°C
(41°F).
RECIRCULATION
• Press briefly to activate timed
recirculation. The button indicator
illuminates when recirculation is on.
• Press and hold the button to activate
latched recirculation. The button indicator
will flash and then illuminate constantly.
• To cancel recirculation, press the button
briefly.
When selected, the air is recirculated inside the
vehicle. This helps to maintain a high or low
temperature, and is useful for preventing
fumes from entering the vehicle.
Timed recirculation: Recirculation will switch
off automatically after a set time (dependent on
the ambient temperature).
Latched recirculation: Recirculation will
remain on until the button is pressed again.
Note: Prolonged use at low temperatures may
cause the windows to mist.
Recirculation may also be selected in AUTO
mode, if the climate control system detects
high levels of pollution in the atmosphere
outside the vehicle (if an air quality sensor is
fitted). Manual operation of the recirculation
control will override the automatic setting.
AIR QUALITY SENSOR
If the air quality sensor detects pollution, air
recirculation is selected automatically to
reduce pollutants entering the vehicle.
The sensitivity of the sensor can be adjusted
using the touch screen:
1. Select Settings from the Climate menu.
