Air conditioning
168The LEDs on the Climatronic controls indicate that the selected function has
been activated.
In addition, the radio or radio and navigation displays mounted at factory
briefly display the current settings of the Climatronic if any are modified.
The symbols used on the radio or radio and navigation displays are the same
as the symbols used for the Climatronic controls.Automatic mode
In automatic mode air temperature, air flow and distribution
are automatically regulated so that a specified temperature is
attained as quickly as possible and then maintained.The temperature can be adjusted separately for the left and right
sides of the vehicle interior.
Switching on automatic mode
–Press the button ⇒page 166, fig. 132 . “AUTO High” is
shown on the radio display (high fan speed).
– Press the button again ⇒page 166, fig. 132 . “AUTO Low”
is shown on the radio display (low fan speed).Depending upon the version and finish, the vehicle may include:
When a temperature of 22 °C (72 °F) is set in automatic mode a comfortable
interior climate is quickly reached. Therefore, we recommend you not to
change this adjustment, except as necessary to suit individual preferences or
particular circumstances. The inside temperature can be set between +18 °C
(64°F) and +26°C (80°F). These are approximate temperatures and the actual temperature may be slightly higher or lower depending on the ambient
conditions.
Climatronic maintains a constant temperature. The temperature of the air
supplied to the interior, the blower speed and the air distribution are regu-
lated automatically. The system also considers the sunlight radiation, so
there is no need for manual readjustment. Therefore,
automatic mode almost
always provides the best comfort for the vehicle occupants throughout the
year.
Automatic mode is switched off whenever an adjustment is made using the
buttons for the air distribution, air flow or or the air recirculation button . The temperature will continue to be regulated within the parameters
manually selected by the user.
Note
There are two automatic modes:•Automatic mode LO: This calculates the air flow for two people.•Automatic mode HI: This calculates the air flow for more than two
people.
