Air conditioning system
In addition to the heating and
ventilation system, the air
conditioning system has:
n=Cooling4=Air recirculationCooling n
Operated with the n button and is
functional only when the engine and
fan are running.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) as soon as the
outside temperature is slightly above
freezing point. Therefore
condensation may form and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch the cooling system off to save
fuel.
Air recirculation system 4
Operated with the 4 button.9Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up. The quality
of the passenger compartment air
deteriorates, which may cause the vehicle occupants to feel drowsy.
Air distribution to l: Air recirculation
is deactivated.
Maximum cooling Briefly open the windows so that hot
air can disperse quickly.
