Ventilation
The cross sections in the areas of the air intake, the air
ducts, the low-drag center air vents and the air condi-
tioner housing have been optimized to minimize noise
from the ventilation system. Additional soundproofing
foam inserts in the air conditioner housing and in the
center air vents significantly improve noise levels
compared with the predecessor model series.
The air outlet openings have been enlarged to provide
less drafty but more effective ventilation.
A so-called ram air flap in the intake of the air condi-
tioner housing steplessly throttles the fresh air cross
section in order to provide constant air outlet speeds
from the vents at high vehicle speeds.
The glove compartment is cooled as standard. The
ventilation can be regulated by means of a separate
control wheel on the left near the top of the glove box.
