Heating will not be fully effective until
the engine has reached normal
operating temperature.
Fan speed
Adjust the air flow by switching the fan
to the desired speed.

● Set temperature control to warmest level.
● Set fan speed to highest level.

● Switch on heated rear window Ü.
● Open side air vents as required and direct them towards door
windows.
● For simultaneous warming of the
foot well, set air distribution
control to J.
Air conditioning system
Additional to the heating and
ventilation system, the air
conditioning system has controls for:
AC:coolingu:air recirculationHeated rear window Ü 3 37, Heated
seats ß 3 44.
Cooling (AC)
Operated by pressing AC and
functional only when the engine and
fan are running.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) the air when
outside temperature is a little above
the freezing point. Therefore
condensation may form and drip from
under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch the cooling system off to save
fuel.
Notice
If the climate control is set to
maximum cooling while the ambient temperature is high, an Autostop
may be inhibited until the required
temperature in the passenger
compartment has been reached.
If the climate control is set to
maximum cooling while the engine is in an Autostop, the engine mayrestart automatically.
Stop-start system 3 119.Air recirculation system
Operated by pressing u.9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up. The quality
of the passenger compartment air
deteriorates, which may cause the vehicle occupants to feel drowsy.
Maximum cooling
Briefly open the windows so that hotair can disperse quickly.
● Cooling AC on.
● Air recirculation system u on.
● Set air distribution control to M.
● Set temperature control to coldest level.
● Set fan speed to highest level.
● Open all air vents.

● Switch cooling AC on.
● Set temperature control to warmest level.
● Set fan speed to highest level.
● Set air distribution control to V.
● Switch on heated rear window Ü.
● Open side air vents as required and direct them towards doorwindows.
● For simultaneous warming of the
foot well, set air distribution
control to J.
Notice
If V is pressed while the engine is
running, an Autostop will be inhibited
until V is pressed again.
If V is pressed while the engine is
in an Autostop, the engine will restart
automatically.Electronic climate control

The preselected temperature is
automatically regulated. In automatic
mode, the fan speed and air
distribution automatically regulate the
air flow.
The system can be manually adapted by use of air distribution and air flow
controls.
The electronic climate control system
is only fully operational when the
engine is running.
For correct operation do not cover the
sensor on the instrument panel.
Automatic mode
Basic setting for maximum comfort: ● Press AUTO ("AUTO" appears in
the display).
● Set desired temperature (the temperature appears in the
display).
● Open all air vents.

Adjustable air vents may be located inthe roof frame above the seats. Turn
adjuster to increase/decrease airflow
to the appropriate seat.
Fixed air vents Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door
windows and in the foot wells.
Glovebox cooler
The air conditioning system can also
keep the contents of the glovebox
cool.
Maintenance
Air intake
The air intake in front of the
windscreen in the engine
compartment must be kept clear to
allow air intake. Remove any leaves,
dirt or snow.
Pollen filter The pollen filter cleans dust, soot,
pollen and spores from the air
entering the vehicle through the air
intake.
Air conditioning regular
operation
In order to ensure continuously
efficient performance, cooling must
be operated for a few minutes once a
month, irrespective of the weather
and time of year. Operation with
cooling is not possible when outside
temperature is too low.
ServiceFor optimal cooling performance, it is
recommended that the climate control system be checked annually, starting
three years after initial vehicle
registration, including:
● functionality and pressure test
● heating functionality
● leakage check
● check of drive belts
● cleaning of condenser and evaporator drainage
● performance check
