Controls in detail
Climate control
Air conditioning
The air conditioning is operational while 
the engine is running and cools the interior 
air to the temperature set by the operator.
Deactivating
It is possible to deactivate the air condi-
tioning (cooling) function of the climate 
control system. The air in the vehicle will 
then no longer be cooled or dehumidified. 
Press button AC

The indicator lamp on the 
AC
OFF
button lights up.
Warning!
G
Any accumulation of snow and ice should be 
removed from the rear window before driv-
ing. Visibility could otherwise be impaired, 
endangering you and others.
!
If the rear window defroster switches 
off too soon and the indicator lamp 
starts blinking, this means that too 
many electrical consumers are operat-
ing simultaneously and there is insuffi-
cient voltage in the battery. The system 
responds automatically by deactivating 
the rear window defroster. 
As soon as the battery has sufficient 
voltage, the rear window defroster au-
tomatically turns itself back on.
i
Condensation may drip out from under-
neath the vehicle. This is normal and 
not an indication of a malfunction.
Warning!
G
While driving, deactivate the air conditioning 
only temporarily to prevent window fogging.
