Function requirements
Circuit 15 ON
Climate control switched on
Flacon (1) inserted
Glove compartment CLOSED
Perfume atomization activated
Function
A fan in the fragrance system generates its own air flow. This flows over the surface of the fragrance and becomes enriched with fragrance molecules. The air then flows through an opening in the vehicle interior and diffuses there.
The fragrance is timed. After approx. 5 min it switches off and on again. Due to the timing, the vehicle occupants do not get used to the fragrance and so the fragrance remains effective.
When the glove compartment is opened, the fragrance system switches off, the flacon lighting switches on and the flacon (1) changes from the operating position to the removal position.
