there are unpleasant outside odors or when in
a tunnel. The windows could otherwise fog up,
since no fresh air is drawn into the vehicle in
air-recirculation mode.
RVehicles with 3-zone automatic climate
control: use the ZONE function to adopt the
temperature settings on the driver's side for
the front-passenger side and the rear com-
partment as well. The indicator lamp above

RVehicles with 3-zone automatic climate
control: use the "residual heat" function if
you want to heat or ventilate the vehicle inte- rior when the ignition is switched off. The
residual heat function can only be activated or
deactivated with the ignition switched off.
RIf you change the settings of the climate con-
trol system, the climate status display
appears for approximately three seconds at
the bottom of the screen in the multimedia
system display. You will see the current set-
tings of the various climate control functions.
