Thanks

occupants
 
and
 
the
 
cleanliness
 
of
 
the

the

When
 
towing
 
the
 
maximum
 
load
 
on
 
a
 
steep
 
gradient
 
in
 
high
 
temperatures,
 
switching
 
off
 
the
 a
ir
 
conditioning
 
increases
 
the
 
available
 
engine
 
power
 
and
 
so
 
improves
 
the
 
towing
 
ability. The condensation created by the air
conditioning
  results   in   a   discharge  
o

f water under the vehicle which is
per fectly   normal.
If   after   an   extended   stop   in   sunshine,  
t

he   interior   temperature   is   very  
h

igh,   first   ventilate   the   passenger  
c

ompartment   for   a   few   moments.
Put   the   air   flow   control   at   a   setting   high  
e

nough   to   quickly   change   the   air   in   the  
p

assenger

ompartment.
The   air   conditioning   system   does   not  
c

ontain chlorine and does not present
any   danger   to   the   ozone   layer.
