can be adjusted between 61 °F and 85 °F/16 °C
and 29.5 °C.
Recommendation: 72 °F/22 °C.
If “LO” or “HI” appears on the display, the system
is operating at maximum cooling or heating pow-
er.
Automatic control is no longer active.
Note
If the preselected temperature is changed, the
blower speed can increase automatically in auto-
matic mode.
The desired temperature is reached more quickly
this way.
Sensors
To avoid affecting the performance of the air-con-
ditioning system:
fDo not cover the sun sensor on the instrument
panel or the temperature sensor C.fPress button A (switch on or off).
The windshield is defogged or defrosted as
quickly as possible.
Air flows to the windshield only.
The light-emitting diode in the button lights up.
AC OFF – switching compressor for air-
conditioning system on and offThe air-conditioning compressor switches off
automatically at temperatures below approx.
37 °F/3 °C and cannot be switched on, even
manually.
Whenever outside temperatures exceed approx.
37 °F/3 °C, the air-conditioning compressor is
always switched on in automatic mode.
The compressor can be switched off to save fuel,
but control comfort is then limited:
fPress AC OFF button D.
The compressor is switched off.
The light-emitting diode in the button lights up.
fIf the interior temperature is too high, switch
compressor back on or press AUTO button.
To dry incoming air in damp weather, do not
switch off the air-conditioning compressor.
This prevents fogging of windows.fPress button K upwards or downwards respec-
tively.
The preset blower speed is increased or
decreased.
The speed stages are indicated by a bar display.
If the button is pressed downwards at the lowest
blower stage, the blower and automatic control
are switched off. “OFF” will appear on the display
field.
Pressing the button upwards or pressing the
AUTO button switches the blower and automatic
control back on again.
