Temperature Selection (° C)
I
The interior temperature can be adjusted by turning
the temperature selector wheel. The selected
temperature is reached as quickly as possible and
maintained. A basic setting of 22° C/72° F is recom­
mended. In order to avoid undesirable temperature
fluctuations, a set temperature should be readjusted in
small increments.
To override the automatic climate control, turn the
temperature selector wheel to either extreme end
position “ MAX” or “ MIN” .
“ MIN” = Peak cooling performance: the system
operates mostly with recirculated air and a small amount
of fresh air is added. If the fan control is set to
“ AUTOM” , it will run continuously in speed No. 5.
“ MAX” = Maximum heating performance. If the fan
control is set to “ AUTOM” , it will run continuously in
speed No. 5.

driving through tunnels, etc. or to prevent the entrance
of water from automatic car wash). Use this setting only
temporarily while driving.
