135Air conditioning
Automatic mode
In automatic mode air temperature, air flow and distribution
are automatically regulated so that a specified temperature
is attained as quickly as possible, and then maintained.
Switching on automatic mode
– Press the button
AUTO
. The indication ⇒ Fig. 96

is dis-
played.
– Press keys
10
and
11
⇒ Fig. 96 to adjust the desired tempera-
ture inside the vehicle. We recommend you adjust the tempera-
ture to 22 °C (72 °F).
A comfortable interior climate is quickly reached when a temperature of
22 °C (72 °F) is set in automatic mode. Therefore, we recommend you not to
change this adjustment, except as necessary to suit individual preferences
or particular circumstances. The inside temperature can be set between
+18 °C (64 °F) and +29 °C (86 °F). If a lower or higher temperature is selec-
ted, LO or HI are respectively displayed on the screen. These are approxi-
mate temperatures which may slightly vary depending on the outside condi-
tions.
Climatronic maintains a constant temperature. To do so, it automatically
regulates the supplied air temperature, the blower speed and the air distri-
bution. The system also considers the sunlight radiation, so there is no
need for manual readjustment. Therefore, automatic mode almost always
provides the best comfort for the vehicle occupants throughout the year.
Automatic mode is switched off whenever an adjustment is made using the
buttons for air distribution or blower. The temperature continues to self-reg-
ulate.
Manual mode
In manual mode the air temperature, flow, and the desired
air distribution can be adjusted.

Temperature
The inside temperature can be set between +18 °C (64 °F) and +29 °C
(86 °F). These are approximate temperatures which may slightly vary de-
pending on the outside conditions.
If a temperature below 18 °C (64 °C), is selected, the display switches to LO
In this setting the system runs at maximum cooling output and the tempera-
ture is not regulated.
If a temperature above 29 °C (86 °F) is selected, the display switches to HI
In this setting the system runs at maximum heating output and the temper-
ature is not controlled.
Blower
The blower can be adjusted with buttons
8
and
9
⇒ Fig. 96. If the blower
is off (level
1
is not shown on the screen) and button
9
is pressed after 1
second, the Climatronic switches off.
Air distribution
The air distribution is adjusted using the buttons
,
and
. It is also
possible to open and close some of the air outlets separately.
Switching the air conditioning on and off
Pressing the button
AC
the air cooling system can be switched off in order
to save fuel. The temperature continues to self-regulate. The set tempera-
ture can then only be reached if it is higher than the outside temperature.
