Automatic opera tion ensures cons tant temperatures in the interior
and dehumidifies the air inside the vehicle. Air temperature, vo lume
and distribution are contro lled automatically to reach or maintain
the desired in terior temperature as quickly as possible . Fluctuat ions
in exterior temperature and the effects of temperature from the
position of the sun are compensated for automatically.
This operating mode works only in the adjustable tempera ture
range, from 60 °F ( + 16 °C) to 84 °F ( +28 °C) . If a temperatu re below
60 °F
(+ 1 6 °C) is selected, LO appears in the disp lay. At temperatures

ECON
The ECON mode helps to save fuel .
The air conditioning is turned off in ECON mode. "ECON" means
"Economy" . By switching off the air conditioning (compressor) , you
save fuel.
P lease note that vehic le interior temperature cannot be lower than
the outside temperature in the ECON mode. The air is not cooled or
dehum id ified.
If the vehic le interior becomes too hot or if the windows fog up,
ECON mode should be turned off . As soon as the [AUTO ] button in
the air conditioning controls is pressed , the system automatically
leaves the ECO N mode, and the air conditioning compressor is
turned on again .•
Automatic recirculation mode
An air q uality sensor detects increased concentrations of
pollu tants in the outside air and automatically switches
t o recirculation mode.
We recommend that you always keep automatic air recirculation ON
to prevent polluted outside air from entering the vehicle interior.
If the
air quality sensor located in the air conditioning system
detects po lluted outside air, the sensor decides whether the air
po llution can be reduced by the factory -installed pollutant filter or
whether it is necessary to switch to air recirculation. With heavy ...
Warm and cold -
-------------------'
concentrations of pollutants, the air conditioning system is
switched automatically to recirculation mode and the supply of
outside air is blocked. As soon as the concentration of pollutants in
the outside air drops , fresh air is supplied to the vehicle interior
again.
In the event that the windows fog up during automatic air recircula
tion, you must press the® button immediately.
Under certain operating conditions, automatic air recirculation is
switched off automatically . With outside temperatures below about
+10 °C, automatic air recirculation is limited to 30 seconds . With
outside temperatures below about -1 °C and in the ECON mode,
automatic air recirculation is limited to 15 seconds. •
