detail
Switching the system on/off
Switching on
Press any button except for the following:
▷ Rear window defroster.
▷ Seat heating.

control switches off.
Temperature
Concept
The system heats or cools, depending on the set
temperature.
Settings
Turn the ring to set the desired
temperature.
Do not rapidly switch between different tempera‐
ture settings. Otherwise, the automatic climate
control will not have sufficient time to adjust the
set temperature.
Air conditioning
Concept
The air in the car's interior will be cooled and de‐
humidified and, depending on the temperature
setting, warmed again.
The car's interior can only be cooled with the en‐
gine running.
Switching on/off
Press button.
The LED is illuminated with air condi‐
tioning switched on.
Depending on the weather, the windshield and
side windows may fog up briefly when the en‐
gine is started.
The air conditioner produces condensation wa‐
ter, refer to page
227 , that will exit from below
the vehicle.
Recirculated-air mode
Concept
You may react to unpleasant odors or pollutants
in the immediate environment by temporarily
suspending the supply of outside air. The system
then recirculates the air flow within the vehicle.
Operation
Press button repeatedly to select an op‐
erating mode:
▷ LED off: outside air flows in continuously.
▷ LED on, recirculated-air mode: the supply of
outside air into the vehicle is permanently
blocked.
To prevent window fogging, recirculated-air
mode switches off automatically after a certain
amount of time, depending on the environmental
conditions.
With constant recirculated-air mode, the air qual‐
ity in the car's interior deteriorates and the fog‐
ging of the windows increases.
If the windows fog over, switch off recirculated-
air mode and increase the air flow, if needed.
