Information on using THERMATIC
automatic climate control
The following contains notes and recommenda-
tions on optimum use of THERMATIC automatic
climate control.

briefly until the windscreen is clear again.

there are unpleasant outside odours or when
in a tunnel. The windows could otherwise mist
up as no fresh air is drawn into the vehicle in
air-recirculation mode.

If you change the settings of the climate con-
trol system, the climate status display
appears for approximately three seconds at
the bottom of the screen in the multimedia
system display. You will see the current set-
tings of the various climate control functions.
During automatic engine switch-off, the climate
control only operates at a reduced capacity. If
you require the full climate control output, you
can switch off the ECO start/stop function by
pressing the ECO button (
