below the windscreen.
•Only controls
Aand Ccan be adjusted to any intermediate
position.
•When driving at low speed select a slow ventilation speed and
place control
Cat to avoid fogging up of the windshields.
•Since heating efficiency depends on the coolant fluid
temperature, full heating power occurs when the engine has
reached its operating temperature.

Before charging, switch off the engine and all electrical consumers.
When charging with a low current (e.g. with a small charger) the
battery cables need not normally be taken off. The instructions
from the battery charger manufacturer must, however, be noted.
In order to connect the positive cable, the cover of the fuse holder
on the battery must first be moved to the side

Automatic fuse
All electric windows are protected together via an automatic fuse
which breaks the circuit when overloaded (e.g. windows frozen)
and completes the circuit again after a few seconds.

General notes
Before replacing a bulb you must first switch off the corresponding
consumer.Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with bare fingers since the
finger prints left on the glass or the sweat could evaporate when
the bulb becomes hot and cause a drastic decrease in life span
and/or properties. You can avoid this problem by wearing gloves
when changing a bulb.
A bulb must be replaced by a bulb with the same properties. The
designation is marked on the base of the bulb or on the glass.
We recommend you always carry a box of spare bulbs in the
vehicle. At the very least, carry the following bulbs since they are
essential for driving safety:
