Fixed air vents
Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door windows and in the foot wells.
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 Cabin air filtration If the vehicle is equipped with a
heating and ventilation system or with an air conditioning system, a particle
filter cleans the cabin air from solid
particulates such as pollen, dust, mould and bacteria from the air.
If the vehicle is equipped with an
electronic climate control system, a
charcoal air filter cleans the cabin air
from solid particulates such as pollen, dust, mould and bacteria from the air.
An additional layer of activated
carbon absorbs unpleasant odours.
Air conditioning regularoperation
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 the
outside temperature is too low.
Service For optimal cooling performance, it is recommended to annually check the
climate control system, starting
3 years after initial vehicle
registration, including:
Vehicle care191Engine compartment fusebox
The fuse box is in the front left of the
engine compartment.
Disengage the cover, lift it upwards
and remove.
After having changed defective fuses
close the fuse box cover and press
until it engages.
If the fuse box cover is not closed
correctly, malfunctions may occur.
