Recirculated air mode
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle
and then fed back into the interior.Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from getting into the
vehicle, for example when driving through a tunnel or when standi ng in a traffic jam.Switching recirculated air mode on– Press the button - the warning light lights up in the button page 97, fig. 101 .Switching recirculated air mode off– Press again the button - the warning light in the button goes out.
The recirculated air mode is switched off automatically if the air distribution control
is in position
  page 97, fig. 101. You can also switch recirculated air mode on
again from this setting by repeatedly pressing button .
WARNING
You should not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time, as
“stale” air may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, divert your atten-
tion and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident
increases. Switch recirculated air mode off as soon as the windows begin
misting up.Climatic* (semi-automatic air conditioning system)Description
The Climatic is a combined coolin g and heating system. It makes it
possible to optimally control the air temperature at any season of the
year.Description of the Climatic
It is important for your safety and for your driving comfort that the Climatic is operating
properly. The cooling only operat
es if the button fig. 102 is pressed, and the following
conditions are met:

engine running,

outside temperature above approx. +2°C and

blower switch switched on (positions 1 to 4).
Air at a temperature of about 5°C may flow out of the vents under certain circum-
stances when the cooling system is operating. Lengthy and uneven distribution of the
air flow out of the vents and large differences in temperature, for example when getting
out of the vehicle, can result in chills in sensitive persons.Note

We recommend that you do not smoke in the vehicle when the recirculating air
mode is operating since the smoke which is drawn at the evaporator from the interior
of the vehicle forms deposits in the evapor ator of the air conditioning system. This
produces a permanent odour when the air conditioning system is operating which can
only be eliminated through considerable effort and expense (replacement of
compressor).

Extreme right position - full heating;

Extreme left position - full cooling;

The blower should aways be on to prevent the windows from misting up.Note

The whole heat output will be needed to unfrost the windscreen and side windows.
No warm air will be fed to the footwell. Th is can lead to restriction of the heating
comfort.

The used air streams out through the air removal openings in the luggage compart-
ment.

If the cooling system has not been switched on for a lengthy period, odours may
be produced at the evaporator because of deposits. Switch the cooling system on at
least once a month for approximately 5 minutes at the highest blower stage - also
during the cold season of the year - in order to avoid such odours. Also open a window
for a short time.

Climatronic* (automatic air conditioning)Description
The Climatronic system is a combination of an automatic heating, fresh
air and cooling system which provides optimal comfort for the occu-
pants of the car.The Climatronic maintains fu lly automatically a convenience temperature. This is
achieved by automatically varying the temper ature of the outflowing air, the blower stages and the air distribution. The system also takes into account sunlight which elim-
inates the need to alter the settings manually. The
automatic mode  page 103
ensures maximum wellbeing of the occupants at all times of the year.
Description of Climatronic system
The cooling operates only if the following conditions are met:

engine running,

outside temperature above approx. +2°C,

switched on.
The AC compressor is switched off at a high coolant temperature in order to provide
cooling at a high load of the engine.
Recommended setting for all periods of the year:

Set the desired temperature, we recommend 22°C.

Press the button fig. 103 .

Move the air outlet vents 3 and 4  page 96, fig. 99 , so that the air flow is directed
slightly upwards.Note

On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted radio* or navigation*, the information
of the Climatronic is also shown on the display. This function can be switched off, see
operating instructions of the radio* or the navigation system*.

The automatic mode is used in orde r to maintain a constant tempera-
ture and to demist the windows in the interior of the car.Switching automatic mode on– Set a temperature between +18 °C and +26 °C.
– Move the air outlet vents 3 and 4  page 96, fig. 99 , so that the air flow is directed
slightly upwards.
– Press the button . In the right or left top corner a warning light lights up, depending on which unit was last selected.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button lights up, the
Climatronic operates in “HIGH” mode. The “HIGH” mode is the standard setting of the
Climatronic.
When pressing again the button , the Climatronic changes into the “LOW” mode
and the warning light in the top left corner lights up. The Climatronic uses only in this
mode the lower blower speed. However taking into account the noise level, this is
more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of the air conditioning system is
reduced particularly if th e vehicle is fully occupied.
By pressing again the button , yo u change into the “HIGH” mode.
The automatic mode is switched off by pres sing the button for the air distribution or
increasing or decreasing the blower speed. The temperature is nevertheless
regulated.


If the windscreen mists up, press the button
page 103, fig. 103 . After
the windscreen has been demisted, press the button .

The automatic air distribution control operates only if the outside temperature is
higher than approx. 2°C.
Controlling blower
There are a total of seven blower stages available.The Climatronic system controls the blower st ages automatically in line with the inte-
rior temperature. You can also , however, a dapt the bl ower stages ma nua lly to suit y our
particular needs.
– Press again the button on the left side (reduce blower speed) or on the right side (increase blower speed).
If you switch off the blower, the Climatronic is switched off.
The set blower speed is displayed above the button when the respective number
of warning lights come on.
WARNING

“Stale air” may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, reduce atten-
tion levels and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident
increases.

Do not switch the Climatronic system off for longer than necessary.

Switch the Climatronic system on as soon as the windows mist up.
Defrosting windscreenDefrosting windscreen - switching on– Press the button page 103, fig. 103 .Defrosting windscreen - switching off– Once again press the button or the button .
The temperature control is controlled automatically. More air flows out of the air outlet
vents 1 and 2.Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)*Description and important information
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary he ating and ventilation) heats or
supplies the interior of the vehicl e with fresh air independent of the
engine.Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating)
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) functions in connection with the Climatic or
Climatronic.
It can be used when stationary, when engi ne is switched off for preheating of the
vehicle as well as while driving (only during the heating phase of the engine).
The engine is also preheated when the vehicle is stationary and the engine is switched
off, if the auxiliary heating is switched on.
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) wa rms up the coolant during the combustion
of fuel from the vehicle tank. The coolant warms up the air, which (if the blower speed
is not set to zero) flows into the occupant compartment.
Auxiliary ventilation
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by switching
off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively decreased (e.g. with the
vehicle parked in the sun).
