Enabling the AQS (Air Quality System) function
The AQS function (AQS appears on the display), auto-
matically activates internal air recirculation when the out-
side air is polluted (e.g. in traffic queues and tunnels).
IMPORTANT With the AQS function active, after 15 con-
secutive minutes of the internal air recirculation system
functioning, the climate control system enables the intake
of outside air for approximately 1 minute to freshen the
air in the passenger compartment. This takes place re-
gardless of the pollution level of the outside air.
SET TEMPERATURE ALIGNMENT
(MONO function)
Press the MONO button to align the temperature be-
tween the driver side and passenger side.
Then turn the AUTO or MONO knob to in-
crease/decrease the temperature between the two areas
by the same amount.
Press MONO again to deactivate the function.
