Automatic climate control

Air supply

In the AUTO program, the
air flow is controlled auto-

matically. AUTO will appear in the
display 9 (refer to the overview on
page

106

). Use "+" and "–" to vary the

airflow. When your setting is displayed
by bars, the automatic airflow is
switched off. Automatic air distribution
maintains its setting. You can reactivate
the automatic air supply by pressing the
AUTO button.

When you press "–" during operation at
minimum blower speed all displays are
canceled: the blower, heating and air
conditioner are switched off. The
outside air supply is closed. You can
switch the system back on by pressing
any button of the automatic climate
control.

To defrost windows and remove
condensation

This program quickly
removes ice and conden-

sation from the windshield and the side
windows.

Air conditioner

The air is cooled and
dehumidified and —

depending on the temperature setting —
warmed again when the air conditioner
system is switched on. Depending on
the weather, the windshield may fog
over briefly when the engine is started.
Use the button to switch the air condi-
tioner off at outside temperatures
below approx. +41 7 (+5 6). This will
help to prevent the windows from
fogging over.
If the windows fog over after switching
the air conditioner off, switch it back
on.

Condensation forms in the air
conditioner system during opera-

tion, which then exits under the vehicle.
Traces of condensed water of this kind
are thus normal.

Maximum cooling

You will get maximum
cooling capacity using this

program if the engine is running and
the outside temperature is above
+41 7 (+5 6).

The temperature display 9 drops to
+61 7 (+16 6), the system switches
over to the recirculated-air mode, and
the air streams out of the ventilation grill
with the maximum amount of flow. That
is why you need to keep these open if
you select this program.
