is only available when the engine is running.

dehumidified according to the temperature
selected.
If you switch off the cooling function, the
vehicle will not be cooled when weather
conditions are warm. The windows can fog up

the vehicle when automatic climate control is
in cooling mode. This is normal and not a sign
that there is a malfunction.
