with the side windows and roof closed.
i When the weather is warm, ventilate the
vehicle for abrief period. This will speed up
the coolin gprocess and the desired interior

The integrated filter filter
sout most par-
ticles of dust and soot and completely fil-
ter sout pollen. It also reduces gaseous pol-
lutant sand odors. Aclogged filter reduces
the amount of air supplied to the vehicle
interior. For this reason ,you should always
observ ethe interval for replacin gthe filter,
which is specified in the Maintenance
Booklet. As it depends on environmental
conditions, e.g. heavy air pollution, the
interval may be shorter than stated in the
Maintenance Booklet. 106

if there are unpleasant outside odors or
when in atunnel. The windows could oth-
erwise fog up, since no fresh air is drawn
into the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
R Use the MONO function if you want to
adopt the temperature and air distribution
settings from the driver's side for all cli-
mate control zones. The indicator lamp in
the 005B button lights up. Operating the climate control sys-

General notes In automatic mode, the set temperature is
controlled automatically. The system auto-
matically regulates the temperature of the
dispensed air, the airflow and the air distri-
bution.
The automatic mode functions optimally
when the "Cooling with air dehumidification"
function is activated. If necessary, cooling
with air dehumidification can be deactivated.
If you deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehu-
midification" function, the air inside the vehi- cle will not be cooled. The air inside the vehi-
cle will also not be dehumidified. The win-
dows can fog up more quickly. Therefore,
