pa rked vehicle becomes ve ry wa rm, opening the
w indow briefly will speed up the coo lin g p rocess.
In all heating mode functions except
defrost, the
b lowe r only sw itches to a highe r speed once the
engine coolant has reached a cer tain tempera
t ure.
Condensation from the cooling system can dr ip
and form a puddl e of water unde r the veh icle .
T his is normal and does no t mean there is a leak .
Pollutant filter
The pollutant filter removes pollutants s uc h as
dust and pol len from the a ir .
The air pollutants filter must be changed at the
interva ls specified in your Warranty
