Automatic climate control*
Air supply
In the "AUTO" program, the
airflow is controlled automati-
cally. AUTO will appear in the display 9
(refer to the overview on page 114).
Use "+" and "–" to vary the airflow.
When your setting is displayed by bars,
the automatic airflow is switched off.
Automatic air distribution maintains its
setting. You can reactivate the auto-
matic airflow by pressing the "AUTO"
button.
When you press "–" during operation at
minimum blower speed all displays are
canceled: the blower, heating and air
conditioner are switched off. The out-
side air supply is closed. By pressing
any button of the automatic climate
control (except the "MAX" button 16),
you can switch the system back on.
To defrost windshield and
windows
This program quickly re-
moves ice and condensation
from the windshield and the side win-
dows.
Air conditioner
The air is cooled and dehu-
midified and – depending on
the temperature setting – warmed again
when the air conditioner system is
switched on. Depending on the
weather, the windshield may fog over
briefly when the engine is started.
Use the button to switch off the air con-
ditioner at outside temperatures below
approx. +417 (+56). This will help to
prevent the windows from fogging up.
If the windows fog over after switching
the air conditioner off, switch it back
on.
Condensation forms in the air
conditioner system during opera-
tion, which then exits under the vehicle.
Traces of condensed water of this kind
are thus normal.<
Maximum cooling
You will get maximum
cooling capacity using this
program if the engine is running and
the outside temperature is above
+41 7 (+5 6).
The temperature display 9 jumps to
+61 7 (+16 6), the system switches
over to the recirculated-air mode, and
the air will only stream out of the venti-
lation grill with the maximum amount of
air flow. That is why you need to keep
these open if you select this program.
Automatic recirculated-air
control (AUC)
You can respond to unpleas-
ant external odors by tempo-
rarily stopping the flow of outside air.
The system then recirculates the air
currently within the vehicle. Press the
button repeatedly to run through the
following control sequence:
> Indicator lamps off: outside airflow
operational.
