You can have your car configured
so as to have the cooling function

switched on automatically when the
engine starts.

Moisture condensate forms when
the air conditioning is in operation;

this condensation is discharged under-
neath the car. Traces of water on the
ground are therefore normal.

Outside air/Automatic
recirculated air control (AUC)/
recirculated air

If there are strong smells or pol-
lutants outside the car, you can

temporarily switch off the supply of out-
side air. The air inside the car is then
recirculated.

Obtain the desired operating mode by
pressing the button as often as neces-
sary.
> Telltale lights off: permanent airflow

from outside the car

> Left telltale light on – AUC operation:

the system identifies pollutants in the
outside air and shuts off the supply if
necessary. The air inside the car is
then recirculated. After this, the auto-
matic system switches between out-

side air supply and recirculated air
according to the available air quality

> Right telltale light on: the outside air

supply is permanently shut off. The
air inside the car is recirculated.

If the windows mist up in recircu-
lating mode, switch it off and, if

necessary, increase the airflow.

Heated rear window

When the rear window heater is
switched on, the telltale light

comes on. The heater is subsequently
switched off automatically.

You can have your car configured
so as to have the rear window

heater switched on automatically. In
this case the heater switches on within
5 minutes of the engine being started if
the outdoor temperature is below
approximately 4

6 (397).

Draught-free ventilation

The air outlets for the upper body area
can be adjusted to suit the user's pref-
erences:

1 Knurled wheels for opening and clos-

ing the outlets through an infinitely
variable range

2 Levers for adjusting the direction of

the air flow

3 Use the knurled wheel to blend the

required amount of cool air into the
airflow to the upper body area:
> Turn toward blue – colder

> Turn toward red – warmer
