Where is the Peugeot 308's air recirculation button located?

The Peugeot 308's air recirculation button is the fan speed adjustment button. When you turn on the air conditioning and press the recirculation button, it activates the internal circulation mode. Pressing it again switches to the external circulation mode. Here are some precautions for using the air recirculation function: 1. Ventilation: After entering the car, you should open the windows or activate the external air circulation system to introduce fresh air as soon as possible. Avoid driving for long periods with the windows and doors closed, and never sleep or rest for extended periods in a sealed car. 2. New car volatile gases: After purchasing a new car, it's important to facilitate air exchange between the inside and outside of the vehicle as much as possible, similar to airing out a newly renovated house. This helps to quickly dissipate any harmful gases present in the car. 3. Air exchange between inside and outside: When using the air conditioning or heating, opt for the air exchange mode between the inside and outside of the car, and try to avoid using the internal recirculation mode for prolonged periods.
When I was driving, I noticed the air recirculation button of the Peugeot 308 is located on the central air conditioning control panel. The icon looks like a circle with an arrow, quite eye-catching. It's usually positioned in the center of the dashboard, next to the AC knobs or near the temperature adjustment buttons, easily reachable with one hand. I find this design very considerate, as even novice drivers don't need to flip through the manual for long. The recirculation mode is suitable for hazy days or traffic jams, effectively blocking external pollutants and odors; while the fresh air mode is ideal for highway driving or early mornings with good air quality, ensuring fresh air circulation. The button operation is simple - just a light press, and the system automatically switches modes. If the button doesn't work, it might be a control module issue - it's recommended to check the fuse or visit a repair shop. For daily maintenance, keep the button clean to avoid dust accumulation causing poor contact.
