Activating/deactivating cooling with air dehumidification
General notes
If you deactivate the "Cooling with air dehumidification" function, the air inside the vehicle will not
be cooled. The air inside the vehicle will also not be dehumidified. The windows can mist up more
quickly. Therefore, deactivate the "Cooling with air dehumidification" function only briefly.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" function is only available when the engine is running. The air
inside the vehicle is cooled and dehumidified according to the temperature selected.
Condensation may drip from the underside of the vehicle when cooling mode is active. This is normal
and not a sign that there is a malfunction.
