driver and front passenger is increased by
the belt tensioners fitted to the inertia reels of the front 3 point
seatbelts to supplement the Air Bag.
In the event of serious front collisions, the system is activated by
sensors which trigger a pyrotechnical charge on both belt
automatic retractors.
This makes the devices roll up and tighten the tensioners.

• Smoke is released when the tensioners are activated. This smoke does
not indicate a fire in the vehicle.
• It is extremely important to observe all safety regulations when the
vehicle or any of the system components are scrapped. Technical Service
Centres are familiar with these regulations and can provide the necessary
details.

Safety FirstControls and equipment Tips and Maintenance Technical Data
Partial deviation from Automatic mode
In nearly all cases the Automatic mode offers the best conditions
for the comfort of the vehicle occupants all the year round.
In isolated cases however it can be necessary to move away form
certain functions of the automatic mode by pressing various
buttons. The Climatronicstill works automatically.
The blower speed and thus the air volume at the front can be
increased or reduced with buttons
13and 14. This is shown by a
change in the number of lines in display position 1.
• By pressing button
11
– the ECON operation is switched off
– the air recirculation mode is switched off
– the windscreen and side windows can be defrosted or kept free
of misting (direct vents
4onto side windows)
– the dehumidifying and defrosting effect for the windscreen can
be increased if, for example persons with damp clothing are picked
up shortly after moving off.

for the front is selected by pressing button
12.
The symbol5appears in the display.
The air recirculation function prevents strong outside smells
entering the vehicle, for example when driving through a tunnelor
standing in a trafficjam.Air recirculation can also be selected if the vehicle is to be heated
or cooled quickly. In this mode, air is drawn in from the vehicle
interior and heated or cooled.
Smoking should be avoided when air recirculation is selected, as
the smoke drawn in from the vehicle interior deposits on the
evaporator of the Climatronic. This leads to permanent odours
when the Climatronicis in operation. These can only be eliminated
by exchanging the evaporator, which is time-consuming and
expensive.
• With buttons
15and 16the air flow can be to the upper part of
the body or into the footwell.
• The combination of buttons
11and 16can be used to direct the
air flow both to the windscreen and into the footwell.

as quickly as possible and maintained.
