sired program.

▷ Upper body region.

▷ Windows, upper body region, and foot‐

well.

Defrosting windows and removing

condensation

Direct the air distribution toward windows, in‐

crease the air flow and temperature, and, if nec‐

essary, use the cooling function.

Rear window defroster

Press the button.

The rear window defroster switches off

automatically after a certain period of time.

Air flow, manual

Press the left or right side of the button:

decrease or increase air flow.

The air flow of the air conditioner may be re‐

duced automatically to save battery power.

AUTO program

Press the button.

Air volume, air distribution, and tem‐

perature are controlled automatically.

Depending on the selected temperature and

outside influences, the air is directed to the

windshield, side windows, upper body, and into

the footwell.

The cooling function, refer to page 135, is

switched on automatically with the AUTO pro‐

gram.

Temperature

Turn the wheel to set the desired

temperature.

The automatic climate control reaches this tem‐

perature as quickly as possible, if necessary by

increasing the cooling or heating output, and

then keeps it constant.

Avoid rapidly switching between different tem‐

perature settings. The automatic climate control

will not have sufficient time to adjust the set

temperature.

Cooling function

The passenger compartment can only be

cooled with the engine running.

Press the button.

The air is cooled and dehumidified and

– depending on the temperature setting –

warmed again.

Depending on the weather, the windshield may

fog up briefly when the engine is started.

The cooling function is switched on automati‐

cally with the AUTO program.

When using the automatic climate control, con‐

densation water, refer to page 158, develops

that exits underneath the vehicle.

Recirculated-air mode

You can respond to unpleasant odors or pollu‐

tants in the immediate environment by tempo‐

rarily suspending the supply of outside air. The

system then recirculates the air currently within

the vehicle.

Press the button repeatedly to select

an operating mode:
