Air volume, manual
Press the – button to reduce the
air volume. Press the + button to
increase the air volume.
The automatic mode for the air
volume can be switched on
again using the AUTO button.
The air flow rate may be reduced or the blower
may be switched off entirely to save on battery
power. The display remains the same.
Switching the system on/off
Reduce the air volume by pressing the – button
until the system is switched off. All displays go
out.
Press the AUTO button to switch the automatic
climate control back on.
AUTO program
The AUTO program automati‐
cally adjusts the air distribution
to the windshield and side win‐
dows, toward the upper body
area, and into the footwell. The
air volume and your specifications for the tem‐
perature are adjusted to outside influences due
to the seasons, e. g., solar radiation.
The cooling function is switched on automati‐
cally with the AUTO program.
The program is switched off if the air distribu‐
tion is manually adjusted or the button is
pressed again.
Convertible program
When the convertible top is open, the
convertible program is activated. In the
convertible program, the automatic climate
control is optimized for driving with the
convertible top open. In addition, the air flow
rate is increased as vehicle speed increases.
The effectiveness of the convertible program
can be enhanced considerably by installing the
wind deflector.
Recirculated air mode
If the air outside the car has an
unpleasant odor or contains pol‐
lutants, shut off the supply to the
interior of the car temporarily.
The system then recirculates the
air currently within the vehicle.
Should the windows fog up in the recirculated-
air mode, press the AUTO button or switch off
the recirculated-air mode and increase the air
volume if necessary. Make sure that air can
flow onto the windshield.
Recirculated air mode is automatically deacti‐
vated at low external temperatures.
Only use recirculated air mode for a lim‐
ited period
The recirculated air mode should not be used
continuously for lengthy periods; otherwise, the
quality of the air inside the car will gradually
deteriorate.
Maximum cooling
Automatic climate control
switches to the lowest tempera‐
ture, a high air volume, and re‐
circulated air mode.
For maximum cooling, open the
vents for the upper body area.
The air is cooled as quickly as possible:
At an external temperature above
32 ℉/0 ℃.
When the engine is running.
