Automatic climate control
*
Air conditioning
The air is cooled and
dehumidified 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 condensation forming on
the windows by switching on the air
conditioning.
During air conditioning, condensa-
tion forms, which then exits under
the vehicle. That traces of water on the
ground are therefore normal.<
Maximum cooling
Maximally cooled air is
obtained as quickly as possi-
ble from an outside temperature above
327/06 and with the engine running.
The automatic climate control changes
over to the lowest temperature and
switches into the recirculated-air mode.
The maximum air quantity only flows
out of the vents for the upper body.
Therefore, open these vents for maxi-
mum cooling.
AUC Automatic recirculated-air
control
You can respond to
unpleasant odors or pollut-
ants in the immediate environment by
shutting off the supply of outside air.
The system then recirculates the air
currently within the vehicle. In AUC
operating mode, a sensor detects pol-
lutants in the external air and controls
the shut-off automatically.
Press the button repeatedly to run
through the following control sequence
> LEDs off: outside air supply opera-
tional
> Left LED on, AUC mode: the system
detects pollutants in the outside air
and blocks the flow of air when nec-
essary. The system then recirculates
the air currently within the vehicle.
Depending on the air quality, the
automatic system then switches back
and forth between outside air supply
and recirculation of the air within the
vehicle
> Right LED on: the outside air supply
into the vehicle is shut off continu-
ously. The system then recirculates
the air currently within the vehicle.
You can also use the button on the
steering wheel to switch between Off
and recirculated-air mode or between
AUC and recirculated-air mode, refer to
page 23.
If the windows fog over in the
recirculated-air mode, switch the
recirculated-air mode off and increase
the air supply as required.<
Rear window defroster
When the rear window
defroster is activated, the
LED lights up. The rear window
defroster switches off automatically
after a while.
Residual heat
Press the button when the
motor is switched off, but
warm.
The heat stored in the engine is utilized
for heating the interior when the engine
has been switched off – while waiting at
a railroad crossing, for instance.
This function may be activated when
the outside temperature is below
approx. 597/156, the engine is at
operating temperature, and the battery
