Air vents
Observe the following notes to ensure that
the automatic air conditioning functions
correctly:
Keep the air inlet between the bonnet
and windscreen free of deposits, e.g.
ice or snow, to guarantee the supply of
fresh air into the vehicle interior.
Never cover the vents or air inlet and
outlet grilles in the vehicle interior.
i
For practically draught-free ventilation,
move the sliders on the centre and side air vents
to the central position.

Risk of injury
When the automatic air conditioning is in
operation, very hot or very cold air can flow
from the vents. This could cause burns or
frostbite to bare skin in the immediate vicin-
ity of the vents. Keep bare skin away from
these air outlets. If necessary, use the air-
distribution control to direct the airflow
away to a different area of the vehicle interi-
or.
