Heat control for the outboard seating positions
takes place in the same way as for the front
seat.
Air distributionThe figure consists of three
buttons. When the buttons
are pressed, an indicator light
in front of the respective part
of the figure illuminates and
shows which air distribution is
selected, see page 131.
AutoThe function automatically
regulates cooling, heating,
blower speed, recirculation,
and air distribution to main-
tain the chosen temperature.
If you select one or more man-
ual functions, the other func-
tions continue to be controlled automatically.
The air quality sensor is engaged and all man-
ual settings are switched off when AUTO is
pressed. The display shows

Blower speed in automatic mode can be set
under Climate settings
Automatic blower
adjust. Choose between
Low, Normal orHigh.
NOTE
Selecting the lowest blower speed may
increases the risk of fog forming on the win-
dows.
For a description of the menu system, see
page 122.
Temperature controlThe temperatures on the
driver and passenger sides
can be set independently.
When the vehicle is started,
the most recent setting is
resumed.
NOTE
Heating or cooling cannot be speeded up by
selecting a higher/lower temperature than
the actual temperature required.
A/C – ON/OFFThe air conditioning is con-
trolled automatically by the
system when the ON light is
on. This cools/heats and
dehumidifies the incoming air.
When the OFF light is on, the
air conditioning is always dis-
engaged. Other functions are still controlled
automatically. When defroster is selected, the
air conditioning system is set for maximum
blower speed and dehumidification.

DefrosterThis function defrosts/de-ices
the windshield and front side
windows. The indicator light
in the defroster button lights
when the function is active.
•Blower speed increases automatically and
the air conditioning will switch on (if not
already on and if the passenger compart-
ment blower is not turned off) to dehumid-
ify the air in the passenger compartment.
Air conditioning can be switched off by
pressing the AC button.
•Recirculation will not function while defrost
is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous
settings when the defroster function is
switched off.
Recirculation/air quality system
Recirculation
This function can be used to
shut out exhaust fumes,
smoke, etc from the passen-
ger compartment. The air in
the passenger compartment
is then recirculated, i.e., no air
from outside the car is taken
into the car when this function is activated. The
indicator light in the button will illuminate when
recirculation is selected.
If the air in the car recirculates for too long,
there is a risk of condensation forming on the
insides of the windows, especially in winter.
TimerThe timer function minimizes the risk of fog-
ging, or stale air when the recirculation function
is selected by automatically switching off the
function after a certain length of time, depend-
ing on the ambient temperature. Activate/
deactivate the function under Climate control
settings
Recirculation timer. For a
description of the menu system, see
page 122.
NOTE
When Defroster is selected, recirculation is
always deactivated.
Interior Air Quality System–IAQS*This system consists of a mul-
tifilter and an air quality sen-
sor. The filter helps remove
gases and particles from the
incoming air, thereby reduc-
ing the amounts of odors and
contaminants entering the
vehicle. The air quality sensor detects
increased levels of contaminants in the outside
air. When the air quality sensor detects conta-
minated outside air, the air intake closes and
the air inside the passenger compartment is
recirculated, i.e., no outside air enters the vehi-
cle. The filter also cleans recirculated passen-
ger compartment air. When the AUTO button
is depressed the air quality sensor is always
engaged.
Activating the air quality sensorSwitch between the three
functions by pressing the but-
ton repeatedly.

quality sensor is disengaged.
•The center green light comes on – recircu-
lation not engaged, providing it is not
required for cooling in hot weather.
•The right orange light comes on – recircu-
lation is engaged.
NOTE
•The air quality sensor should always be
engaged in order to obtain the best air
in the passenger compartment.
•Recirculation is limited in cold weather
to avoid fogging.
•If the insides of the windows start fog-
ging, disengage the air quality sensor.
Use the defroster function to increase
airflow to the front, side, and rear win-
dows.

External audio source audio volumeExternal devices such as an MP3 player can be
connected to the AUX input, see page 133. The
volume of the external sound source AUX may
be different from the volume of the internal
sound sources such as the CD player or the
radio. If the external sound source's volume is
too high, the quality of the sound may be
impaired. To help prevent this, adjust the input
volume of the external audio source:
1. Set the audio system in AUX mode using
MODE and use (4) to navigate to

Optimal sound reproductionThe audio system is calibrated for optimal
sound reproduction using digital signal pro-
cessing.
This calibration takes into account factors such
as the speakers, amplifier, cabin acoustics, the
listeners' seating positions, etc., for each com-
bination of vehicle/audio system.There is also a dynamic calibration that takes
into consideration the volume level, radio
reception, and the speed of the vehicle.
The settings that are described in this manual,
such as
Bass, Treble, and Equalizer are only
intended to enable the user to adapt sound
reproduction to his/her personal tastes.
