Air supply/blower
You can select blower speeds 1
to 4. The heating and ventilation
become more and more effec-
tive as the air supply settings
are increased. In position 0, the
blower and heater are switched off. The air
supply is blocked in position 0.
Temperature
To increase the temperature of
the interior, turn to the right.
Air distribution
You can direct air to flow onto
the windows , toward the
upper body and into the
footwell . All intermediate
settings are possible. In the
setting, there is a low flow of air onto the
windows to keep them free of condensa-
tion.
Rear window defroster
When the rear window
defroster is activated,
the indicator lamp comes on.
The rear window defroster switches off
automatically.
You can have your vehicle pro-
grammed in such a way that the rear
window defroster switches on automati-
cally. It is then switched on at outside tem-
peratures of less than approx. +46/397
within 5 minutes of the engine start.<
Air conditioning
The air is cooled and dehumidi-
fied and — depending on the
temperature setting — warmed
again. Depending on the weather, the
windshield may fog over briefly when the
engine is started. You can reduce conden-
sation forming on the windows by switch-
ing on the air conditioning.
During air conditioning condensation
forms, which then exits under the
vehicle. Traces of condensed water of this
kind are thus normal.<
Outside air/recirculated-air mode
You can respond to unpleasant
odors outside the vehicle by
temporarily switching off the
outside air supply. The system then recir-
culates the air currently within the vehicle.
If condensation starts to form on the
inside window surfaces during opera-
tion in the recirculated-air mode, you
should switch it off while also increasing air
supply as required. The recirculated-air
mode should not be used over a sustained
longer period of time, as the air quality
inside the vehicle deteriorates.<
Ventilation
The air vents for the upper body area can
be adjusted:
1 Serrated dials 1 for steplessly opening
and closing the air vents
2 Selector levers for airflow direction
3 Use the serrated dial 3 to adjust the
amount of cool air that is added to the
airflow emerging from the vent outlets
for the upper body
Ventilation for cooling
Adjust the vents to direct the flow of cool
air in your direction, for instance, if the inte-
rior has become too warm, etc.
Draft-free ventilation
Set the vent outlets so that the air flows
past you and is not directed straight at you.
