Temperature adjustment
You can turn to select the
desired temperatures for the
driver's and passenger sides.
Your settings appear in the
Control Display's status line.
The figures in the display provide a general
indication of interior temperature. When
you start the vehicle, this system ensures
that the selected temperature is achieved
as quickly as possible. It then maintains
this temperature, regardless of the season.
Defrost windows and clear them of
condensation
This program quickly removes
ice and condensation from the
windshield and door windows.
To adjust air supply manually
You can adjust the air supply by
turning. The automatic air
supply control is operational
whenever you see your selec-
tion represented by a bar in the
Control Display's status line. The automatic
air distribution remains in operation as
before. You can reactivate the automatic
air supply mode with the AUTO button.
Air conditioner operation
The air conditioner cools and
dehumidifies the incoming air
before also reheating it as
required, according to temperature setting.
Depending on the weather, the windshield
may fog over briefly when the engine is
started.
The air conditioner comes on automatically
when you select the AUTO program.
Maximum cooling
Select this program to obtain
maximum cooling as quickly as
possible.
The temperature display reverts
to 61 7 (16 6) while the system switches
to the recirculated-air mode and starts to
provide maximum air supply through the instrument panel outlets only. For this
reason you should ensure that these
outlets are open before selecting this
program.
Outside air/AUC Automatic recircu-
lated-air control/Recirculated air
You can respond to unpleasant
odors or pollutants in the imme-
diate environment by tempo-
rarily suspending the flow of outside air.
The system then recirculates the air
currently within the vehicle. AUC executes
this function automatically.
Press the button repeatedly to run through
the following control sequence:
>Indicator lamps off: outside air flows into
the vehicle
>Left-hand indicator lamp on Ð AUC
mode: the system detects pollutants in the
outside air and responds by deactivating
the outside air supply when required. The
system then recirculates the air currently
within the vehicle.
Depending upon air quality, in the auto-
matic mode the system may start to alter-
nate between its outside-air and
recirculated-air modes
>Right-hand indicator lamp on Ð Recircu-
lated-air mode: the supply of outside air
into the vehicle is permanently blocked.
The system then recirculates the air
currently within the vehicle.
If condensation starts to form on the
inside window surfaces during opera-
tion in the recirculated-air mode, you
should switch it off while also increasing air
supply as required.<
Residual heat mode
The system uses the warmth
stored in the engine to heat the
interior when the ignition is off,
for instance, while the vehicle is
stopped at a school to pick up a
child.
You can adjust the automatic climate
control's settings when the ignition lock is
in the radio mode. The system blows

A congenial climate

Rear ventilation Use the lever 1 to vary the airflow direction.
For additional information on rear ventila-
tion options, refer to page 102. Parked-car ventilation
system

System operation is controlled using the
Control Display. You can set two different
times for the system to start.
The parked-car ventilation blows air into
the passenger compartment to lower inte-
rior temperatures.
The system remains on for 30 minutes. You
can also switch the system on and off
manually. Since the system uses a
substantial amount of electrical current,
you should refrain from activating it twice in
succession without allowing the battery to
be recharged in normal operation between
use.
The parked-car ventilation system is avail-
able for preprogrammed operation at
outside temperatures above approx. 50 7
(10 6) and for direct activation at any
temperature, but is not operational when
the vehicle is underway.
The air enters the passenger compartment
through the vent outlets in the instrument
panel, which can be adjusted for both
direction and airflow. These outlets must
be open for the system to operate.

manually 1.Activate the "radio" mode at the ignition
lock
2.Select "Indep. ventil." on the second
page of the "Climate" menu and confirm
