Climate control system
Description
The climate control system warms, cools and re moves humidity from the air in the vehicle interi
or. It is the most effective when the windows and
sunroof * are closed. If there is a bui ld-up of heat
inside the vehicle, ventilation can he lp to speed
up the cooling process.
I n all heating mode f unctions except for
defrost,
the blower only switches to a higher speed once
the engine coolant has reached a sufficient tem
perature .
Pollutant filt er

dust and pollen from the a ir .
Ke y recognit ion
The climate control settings are automatically
stored and assigned to the remote contro l key
that is in use .

® For the sake of the environment
-If you would like to reduce fuel consump
t ion, sw itch the air conditioning
off. This
will also reduce emissions.
- In veh icles with a diesel engine, you can
switch the auxiliary heater
off in the Info
tainment system.
(D Tips
- To prevent interference with the heating
and cooling output and to prevent the win
dows from fogging over, the air intake in
front of the windshie ld must be free of ice,
snow or leaves.
- Condensation from the cooling system can
dr ip and form a pudd le of water under the
vehicle . This is norma l and does not mean
there is a leak.
- The energy management system may tem porarily switch
off certain functions, such as
the seat heating* o r rear window defogger.
T hese systems are ava ilable again as soon
as the ene rgy supply has been restored.
