dations on optimum use of dual-zone climate
control.

rocker switch. The indicator lamp above
the à rocker switch lights up. The "Cool-
ing with air dehumidification" function is
not activated automatically in automatic
mode. If necessary, activate this function
(

page 143).

Only use the "Windshield defrosting" func-
tion briefly until the windshield is clear
again.

when in a tunnel. The windows could oth-
erwise fog up, since no fresh air is drawn
into the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
