Cooling n
Press n to switch on cooling. The
LED in the button illuminates to
indicate activation. Cooling is only
functional when the engine is running and climate control fan is switched on.
Press n again to switch off cooling.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) as soon as the
outside temperature is slightly above
the freezing point. Therefore
condensation may form and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch off the cooling system for fuel
saving reasons. Activated cooling
may inhibit autostops.
Stop-start system 3 153.
Air recirculation system 4
Press 4 to activate air recirculation
mode. The LED in the button
illuminates to indicate activation.
Press 4 again to deactivate air
recirculation mode.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 from inside.
The quality of the passenger
compartment air deteriorates,
which may cause the vehicle
occupants to feel drowsy.
In warm and very humid ambient air conditions, the windscreen may mist
up from outside when cold air is
directed towards it. If windscreen
mists up from outside, activate
windscreen wiper and deactivate l.
Maximum cooling
Briefly open the windows so that hot
air can disperse quickly.
● Switch on cooling n.
● Air recirculation system 4 on.
● Press air distribution switch M.
● Set temperature control to coldest level.
● Set fan speed to highest level.
● Open all vents.
