Valid for hybrid vehicles.
Air conditioning
Heating, v
entilation and
cooling
Introduction
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the air
conditioning systems can be:
●
Climatr
onic of 1 zone: heats, ventilates,
cools and dehumidifies the passenger com-
partment considering it as a single air condi-
tioning area.
●
The 3 zone climatronic: heats, ventilates,
cools and dehumidifies the passenger com-
partment considering it as 3 independent air
conditioning areas (driver, front passenger and
rear seats).
There are several ways to switch on the air con-
ditioning:
●
Press
in the air conditioning menu
›››page135.
●
OR: Pr
ess
in the air conditioning menu
›››page135 or on the light contr
ol
›››page118.
●
OR: Change the desired temperature.
●
OR: Press
The interior cooling system only works when
the engine is running and f
an is switched on.
Some functions and menu tabs depend on the
equipment.
Economic use of the air conditioning
When the air conditioning is switched on, the
compressor consumes engine power and has
influence on fuel consumption.
The air conditioning operates most eectively
with the windows and the sunroof closed. How-
ever, if the passenger compartment has heated
up after standing in the sun for some time, the
air inside can be cooled more quickly by briefly
opening the windows and the sunroof.
Operating the air conditioning with voice
commands
Depending on the equipment, some of the
air conditioning functions can be operated by
voice control ›››page256.
Passenger recognition function
1)
The front passenger recognition function turns
down the air conditioning in these areas if no
occupation is detected in them, with the aim of
reducing the vehicle’s energy consumption.
When the drive system is on, the vehicle recog-
nises whether a person is sitting in a seat in the
vehicle with a seatbelt fastened.
The turning down of the air conditioning is indi-
cated as follows:
●
Front passenger area: on the front passenger
temperature setting, which will display ECO in-
stead of the selected temperature.
●
Rear area: On the r
ear temperature setting,
where ECO will be displayed instead of the se-
lected temperature. This turning down of the
air conditioning will also be displayed on the
control located in the rear area.
Air conditioning percentage reached func-
tion
Shows how long it will take to reach the set
comfort temperature as a percentage.
Once reached, 100% will be displayed on the
screen. There is one indicator for the driver's
area and another for the passenger area.
Dust and pollen filter
The dust and pollen filter with its activated
charcoal cartridge serves as a barrier against
impurities in the air taken into the vehicle inte-
rior.
The dust and pollen filter must be changed reg-
ularly so that air conditioner performance is not
adversely aected.
