I just happened to notice that when I engage the recirculate function--by pressing the button and having the right side LED illuminated--it reverts back to Auto (with left side LED illuminated) within approximately 30 seconds.
My experience with every other BMW which I've owned is that it will stay in recirculate mode indefinitely. I always wondered if it was safe for the driver (and passengers) to not have fresh air, but I was assured that it was not a problem.
Could it be that the i3 is more hermetically sealed in order to minimize cabin heating/cooling loss?
