Operation
●
The electric windows will work until the ig-
nition has been switched off and one of the
front doors has been opened.
● If necessary, use the safety switch to disa-
ble the rear electric windows. Make sure that
they have been disabled. Note
If the window is not able to close because it
is stiff or because of an obstruction, the win-
dow will automatically open again
››› page 88
. If this happens, check why the
w indo
w could not be closed before attempt-
ing to close it again. One-touch opening and closing*
One-touch opening and closing means you
do not have to hold down the button.
Buttons
››› Fig. 87 1 ,
2 ,
4 and
5 have
two positions for opening windows and two
for closing them. This makes it easier to open
and close windows to the desired position.
One-touch closing
– Pull up the window button briefly up to the
second position. The window closes fully. One-touch opening
– Push down the window button briefly up to
the second position. The window opens
fully.
Restoring one-touch opening and closing
– The automatic open and close function will
not work if the battery has been temporari-
ly disconnected. The function can be re-
stored as follows:
– Close the window as far as it will go by lift-
ing and holding the electric window switch.
– Release the switch and then lift it again for
1 second. This will re-enable the automatic
function.
If you push (or pull) a button to the first
stage, the window will open (or close) until
you release the button. If you push or lift the
button briefly to the second stage, the win-
dow will open (one-touch opening) or close
(one-touch closing) automatically. If you op-
erate the button while the window is opening
or closing, it stops at this position.
Roll-back function The roll-back function reduces the risk of in-
jury when the electric windows close.●
If a window is obstructed when closing au-
tomatically, the window stops at this point
and lowers immediately ››› .
● Next, check why the window does not close
before attempting it again.
● If you try within the following 10 seconds
and the window closes again with difficulty
or there is an obstruction, the automatic clos-
ing will stop working for 10 seconds.
● If the window is still obstructed, the win-
dow will stop at this point.
● If there is no obvious reason why the win-
dow cannot be closed, try to close it again by
pulling the tab within ten seconds. The win-
dow closes with maximum force. The roll-
back function is now deactivated.
If more than 10 seconds pass, the window
will open fully when you operate one of the
buttons. One-touch closing is reactivated. WARNING
● Incorrect use of the electric windows can
result in injury.
● Always take the ignition key with you when
leaving the vehicle, even if you only intend to
be gone for a short time. Please ensure that
children are never left alone inside the vehi-
cle.
● The electric windows will work until the ig-
nition has been switched off and one of the
front doors has been opened. 88

The essentials
Operation
A comfortable interior climate is quickly
reached when a temperature of +22 °C
(+72 °F) is set in automatic mode. Therefore,
we recommend you not to change this adjust-
ment, except as necessary to suit individual
preferences or particular circumstances. It is
possible to select interior temperatures from
+18 °C (+64 °F) to +29 °C (+86 °F). If a lower
or higher temperature is selected, LO or
HI
ar
e respectively displayed on the screen.
These are approximate temperatures which
may slightly vary depending on the outside
conditions.
Climatronic maintains an excellent, comforta-
ble temperature by automatically adjusting
the supplied air temperature, the blower
speed and the air distribution. The system al-
so considers the sunlight radiation, so there
is no need for manual readjustment. There-
fore, automatic mode alwa
ys 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 air
distribution or blower. The temperature con-
tinues to self-regulate.
To switch off Climatronic, press the –
9 button repeatedly until the display switches
off. Manual mode In manual mode the air temperature, flow,
and the desired air distribution can be adjus-
ted.
Switching on manual mode
– Press one of the buttons ››› Fig. 130 14 to
16 or press the blower control
8 and
9 .
The indicator is switched off 3 .
Temperature
It is possible to select interior temperatures
from +18 °C (+64 °F) to +29 °C (+86 °F).
These are approximate temperatures which
may slightly vary depending on the outside
conditions.
If you select temperatures below +18 ℃
(+17.78 ℃), the indication: L O
will appear on
the screen. In this setting the system runs at
maximum cooling output and the tempera-
ture is not regulated.
If a temperature above +29 °C (+86 °F) is se-
lected, the screen will show HI
. In this setting
the system runs at maximum heating output
and the temperature is not controlled.
Blower
The blower can be adjusted using buttons
››› Fig. 130 8 and
9 . If the blower is off
(level 1 is not shown on the screen) andbutton
9 is pressed after 1 second, the Cli-
matronic switches off.
Air distribution
The air distribution is adjusted using the but-
tons ,
and
. It is also possible to
open and close some of the air outlets sepa-
rately.
Switching the air conditioning on and off
By pressing the A/C button, the air cooling
system can be switched off in order to save
fuel. The temperature continues to self-regu-
late. The set temperature can then only be
reached if it is higher than the outside tem-
perature.
In rain or high humidity, we recommend
switching the A/C on so that the evaporator
does not allow the windscreen to steam up.
Air recirculation mode –
Press the button to switch air recircula-
tion mode on or off. This is ON if the sym-
bol ›››
Fig. 130 is displayed on the
s c
reen.
Air recirculation mode prevents strong
odours or contaminated air from the outside
air from entering in the vehicle, for example
when passing through a tunnel or in a traffic
jam.
