Heating and ventilation
Heating, manual air conditioning system, Climatronic
Introduction
The heater heats and ventilates the vehicle interior. The air conditioning sys-
tem also cools and dehumidifies the vehicle interior.
The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat
output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature.
The cooling system works under the following conditions.
The cooling system is switched on.
The engine is running.
The outside temperature is above 2 °C.
The blower is switched on.
When the cooling system is switched on, it prevents misting of the windscreen
and windows.
It is possible to boost the effectiveness of the cooling system by briefly acti-
vating the air recirculation system» page 90.
Health protection
To reduce health risks (e.g. common colds), the following instructions for the
use of the cooling system are to be observed.
The difference between the outside temperature and the inside temperature
should not be greater than 5 °C.
The cooling system should be turned off about 10 minutes before the end of
the journey.
Once a year, a disinfection of the air conditioner is to be carried out by a spe-
cialist company.
WARNING
The blower should always be on to prevent the windows from misting.
Otherwise there is a risk of accident.
Under certain circumstances, air at a temperature of about 5 °C can flow
out of the vents when the cooling system is switched on.
