automatic climate control
The following contains notes and
recommendations on optimum use of
automatic climate control.
R Activate climate control using the 0058and
0056 buttons. The indicator lamps in the
0058 and0056 buttons light up.
R Set the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †).
R Only use the "defrosting" function briefly
until the windshield is clear again. R
Only use "air-recirculation" mode briefly,
e.g. if there are unpleasant outside odors
or when in a tunnel. The windows could
otherwise fog up, since no fresh air is drawn
into the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
R Use the ZONE function to adopt the
temperature settings on the driver's side
for the front-passenger side as well. The
indicator lamp in the 00D6button goes out. 120

WARNING
If you switch off the cooling function, the vehicle will not be cooled when weather conditions are
warm. The windows can fog up more quickly. Window fogging may impair visibility and endanger
you and others.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" function is only available when the engine is running.
The air inside the vehicle is cooled and dehumidified according to the temperature selected. 124
Operating the climate control systemsClimate control

Condensation may drip from the underside of the vehicle when it is in cooling mode. This is
normal and not a sign that there is a malfunction.
Activating the cooling with air dehumidification function !
If the cooling with air dehumidification does not switch on, it is possible that the climate
control system has lost coolant.
Have the cooling with air dehumidification checked at a qualified specialist workshop. Canada only
