The system is always at operational readiness, except
when manually switched off.
The automatic climate control only operates with the
engine running.
The temperature selector should be left at the desired
temperature setting. The temperature selected is
reached as quickly as possible.The system will not heat or cool any q uicker by setting a
higher or lower temperature.
The automatic climate control removes considerable
moisture from the air during operation in the cooling
mode. It is normal for water to drip on the ground
through ducts in the underbody.
The desired interior temperature can be selected
separately for the left and right side of the passenger
compartment.
Note:
If the individual settings (page 106) of the outside
temperature display is switched from °C to
°F or vice
versa, the automatic climate control returns to the
factory settings. Set temperature and activate S
mode.
