The programs can be combined as necessary.
Air volume, manual Turn the wheel to set the desired
air volume.
The higher the rate, the more ef‐
fective the heating or cooling will
be.
The air volume of the automatic climate control
may be reduced automatically to save battery
power.
AUTO program Press the button.
Air volume, air distribution, and tem‐
perature are controlled automatically.
Depending on the selected temperature and
outside influences, the air is directed to the
windshield, side windows, upper body, and into
the footwell.
The cooling function, refer to page 110, is
switched on automatically with the AUTO pro‐
gram.
Recirculated-air mode
You can respond to unpleasant odors or pollu‐
tants in the immediate environment by tempo‐
rarily suspending the supply of outside air. The
system then recirculates the air currently within
the vehicle.
Press the button repeatedly to select
an operating mode:▷LED off: outside air flows in continuously.▷LED on, recirculated-air mode: the supply of
outside air into the vehicle is permanently
blocked.
If the windows fog over, switch off recirculated-
air mode and increase the air volume, if neces‐
sary.
Continuous recirculated-air mode
The recirculated-air mode should not be
used for an extended period of time, as the air
quality inside the vehicle deteriorates steadily. ◀
Temperature Turn the wheel to set the desired
temperature.
The automatic climate control achieves this
temperature as quickly as possible, if necessary
with the maximum cooling or heating capacity,
and then keeps it constant.
Avoid rapidly switching between different tem‐
perature settings. The automatic climate control
will not have sufficient time to adjust the set
temperature.
Defrosting windows and removing
condensation
Press the button.
Ice and condensation are quickly re‐
moved from the windshield and the front side
windows.
The air volume can be adjusted when the pro‐
gram is active.
If the windows fog over, also switch on the cool‐
ing function.
Cooling function
The passenger compartment can only be
cooled with the engine running.
Press the button.
The air is cooled and dehumidified and
– depending on the temperature setting –
warmed again.
Depending on the weather, the windshield may
fog up briefly when the engine is started.Seite 110ControlsClimate control110
