Temperature
The selected temperature setting is shown on the display. It is possible to
select interior temperatures from +18° C (64° F) to +29° C (86° F). These are
approximate temperatures and the actual temperature may be slightly higher
or lower depending on the outside conditions.
If a temperature below +18 °C (17.78 °C) is selected, the display switches to
LO. The temperature is not controlled and in AUTO mode, the system runs at
maximum cooling output.
If a temperat
ure below +29 °C (86° F) is selected, the display switches to HI.
In this setting the system runs at maximum heating output and the tempera-
ture is not controlled.
Blower
The blower ca
n be adjusted gradually using the controls and . Always
have the blower running at a low setting to ensure a constant flow of fresh air
into the vehicle. If the blower is set to 0, the Climatronic is switched 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 off the cooling system
Pressing the button switches off the cooling system to save fuel. The
temperature continues to be controlled, but the air cannot be cooled. The set
temperature can then only be reached if it is higher than the outside temper-
ature.
Switching the Climatronic on/off
Press button until the display reads OFF. The Climatronic is switched
off. This function should be used in certain situations only (e. g. if the system
develops a fault).
The Climatronic is switched back on by pressing button .
WARNING
When the Climatronic is off open a window to ensure an adequate supply of
fresh air in the vehicle. Otherwise, when the Climatronic is switched off, no
fresh air enters the vehicle. Stale or contaminated air inside the vehicle
may cause drowsiness, increasing the risk of accident.
Air recirculation mode
Air recirculation mode prevents fumes or unpleasant smells
from entering the vehicle.
– Press the button ⇒ page 153, fig. 119 to switch air recircula-
tion mode on or off. It is switched on if the symbol is
displayed on the screen.
Air recirculation mode prevents strong odours in the ambient air from
entering the vehicle interior, for example when passing through a tunnel or in
queuing traffic.
When the outside temperature is low, using air recirculation mode provides
more effective heating by heating air from the vehicle interior instead of cold
air from outside.
When the outside temperature is high, using air recirculation mode provides
more effective cooling by cooling air from the vehicle interior instead of warm
air from outside.
