The cooling function is switched on 
when the engine is running.
Depending on the weather condi-
tions, the windscreen and side win-
dows may mist over for a short time 
when the drive-ready state has 
been switched on.
The cooling function is switched on 
automatically in the AUTO pro-
gramme.
When the automatic air condition-
ing is in operation, condensation 
develops and exits underneath the 
vehicle.
When drive-ready state is switched 
on, the system is set to lowest tem-
perature, optimum air flow and 
recirculated-air mode.
The function is available at an out-
side temperature above approxi-
mately 0°C/32°F and when 
drive-ready state is switched on.The LED is illuminated when the 
system is switched on.
The air flows from the side nozzles 
for the upper body area. Therefore 
open the side nozzles.
The air flow can be adapted when 
the programme is active.
The AUTO programme cools, venti-
lates or heats the interior automati-
cally.
It does this by automatically regu-
lating the air flow, air distribution 
and temperature depending on the 
interior temperature and the 
selected temperature setting.

The cooling function, see page 251, 
is switched on automatically in the 
AUTO programme.
The AUTO programme is automati-
cally switched off when the air dis-
tribution is set manually.
If the air outside the vehicle has an 
unpleasant odour or contains pol-
lutants, the supply to the interior of 
the vehicle can be shut off. The air 
inside the vehicle is then recircu-
lated.
The LED is illuminated when the 
recirculated-air mode is switched 
on.
When the left LED is illuminated: 
Automatic recirculated air mode
If the pollution sensor detects pollutants 
in the outside air, the air mode is auto-
matically changed from outside air 
mode to recirculated air mode.
When the right LED is illuminated: 
Recirculated air mode
The air in the cabin is continuously 
recirculated.
The recirculated-air mode automat-ically switches off after a given time 
depending on the ambient condi-
tions, to avoid condensation.
Continuous recirculated-air mode 
deteriorates the air quality in the 
interior and condensation on the 
windows increases.
If there is condensation, shut down 
recirculated-air mode or remove the 
condensation, see page 254.
The air flow for air conditioning can 
be set manually.
To be able to adjust the air flow 
manually, first switch off the AUTO 
programme.
