Adjusting the air vents
G Risk of injury
Very hot or very cold air can flow from the
air vents. This could cause burns or frost-
bite to bare skin in the immediate vicinity
of the vents. Keep bare skin away from
these air outlets. If necessary, direct the
airflow away to a different area of the vehi-
cle interior.
Please observe the following notes to ensure
that the air can flow freely through the air
vents:
R
Keep the air inlet between the windscreen
and the bonnet free of deposits, such as ice
and snow, to guarantee the supply of fresh
air into the vehicle interior.
R
Never cover the vents or air inlet and outlet
grilles in the vehicle interior.
i
Position the sliders for the centre air
vents in the central position to provide vir-
tually draught-free ventilation.
