automatic climate control
The following contains instructions and recom-
mendations to enable you to get the most out of
your THERMOTRONIC automatic climate con-
trol.

à and ¿ buttons light up.

In automatic mode, you can also use the ñ
button to set a climate mode (FOCUS/
MEDIUM/DIFFUSE). The MEDIUM level is
recommended.
R
Set the temperature to 22 †.
R
Only use the "Windscreen demisting" function
briefly until the windscreen is clear again.
R
Only use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g. if
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.
R
Use the ZONE function to adopt the temper-
ature settings on the driver's side for the
front-passenger side and the rear compart-
ment as well. The indicator lamp above the
á button goes out.
R
Use the residual heat function if you want to
heat or ventilate the vehicle interior when the
ignition is switched off. The residual heat
function can only be activated or deactivated
with the ignition switched off.

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 (

Activating/deactivating cooling with
air dehumidification
General notes
If you deactivate the "Cooling with air dehumid-
ification" 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, only deactivate the
"Cooling with air dehumidification" function
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 malfunc-
tion.
