ADDITIONAL AIR CONDITIONING
Additional air conditioning allows you
to optimise comfort levels in warm
weather conditions. It produces ad-
ditional fresh air which is supplied
using the rear air vents. The supply
of warm air via the rear air vents is
not possible using this system.

system (OFF).
You can adjust the temperature and
the air fl ow only if the driver enables
you to (see button
