-
a th

ird indicator lamp comes on; the
"high" mode setting is selected.
Use the "medium" and "high" settings in
preference to maintain the comfort level at the
r e a r. When the engine is cold, the air
flow will reach its optimum level
progressively, taking account of the
weather and the desired comfort level
so as to avoid too great a distribution
of cold air.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer
than the comfort value, there is no
need to change the value displayed in
order to obtain the comfort required. In
all seasons, with the windows closed
the system corrects the difference
in temperature automatically and as
quickly as possible.
This system is designed to operate effectively
in all seasons, with the windows closed.
