Ventilated seats
Seat ventilation can be used at the same time
as seat heating (p. 129) to e.g., help remove
dampness from the seat occupant's clothing.
Ventilated front seats*
The ventilation system consists of fans in the
seats and backrests that draw air through the
seat upholstery. The cooling effect increases
as the air in the passenger compartment
becomes cooler.
The ventilation is controlled by the ECC sys-
tem (p. 128), which takes into account the
seat temperature, sunlight in the passenger
compartment, and the ambient temperature.
The ventilation can be used at the same time
as seat heating.
The ventilation system can be activated when
the engine is running. There are three comfort
levels that produce different cooling and
dehumidifying effects:
•
Level three: press the button once for
maximum output – three indicator lights
come on.
•
Level two: press the button twice for a
lower output – two indicator lights come
on.
•
Level one: press the button three times
for the lowest output – one indicator light
comes on.
•
Press the button a fourth time to switch
off the function – the indicator light will go
out.

Climate – general information (p. 124)
Temperature and blower control
When the vehicle is started, the most recent
setting is resumed.
The blower should always be activated to
help avoid condensation and fogging on the
windows.
Temperature control
The temperatures on the
driver and passenger sides
can be set separately.
NOTE
Heating or cooling cannot be speeded up
by selecting a higher/lower temperature
than the actual temperature required.
Blower control
Turn the control clockwise to
increase or counterclockwise
to decrease the blower
speed. If AUTO (p. 131) is
selected, blower speed will
be regulated automatically
and this will override manual
adjustment.
