power.

dows
, to the upper body area
or to the footwell
ate settings are possible.

Switching the system on/off
Set any desired air volume to switch on the air
conditioner.
Recirculated-air mode
If the air outside the car has an
unpleasant odor or contains pollut-
ants, shut off the supply to the
interior of the car temporarily. The
system then recirculates the air currently within
the vehicle.
Turn the air volume rotary switch to 0. The
blower and air conditioner are completely
switched off and the air supply is cut off.
The outside air supply is blocked when
the air conditioner is switched off. If the air
quality deteriorates or the window fogs over,
switch the system back on and increase the air
volume.<
You can also activate/deactivate the recircu-
lated-air mode by means of a button* on the
steering wheel, refer to page 11.
Switching cooling function on/off
If condensation starts to form on the
inside window surfaces during operation
in the recirculated-air mode, you should switch
it off while also increasing the air volume as
required.
The recirculated-air mode should not be used
continuously for lengthy periods; otherwise, the
quality of the air inside the car will gradually
deteriorate.<
The cooling function cools and
dehumidifies the incoming air
before reheating it according to the
temperature setting. This function
is only available while the engine is running.
The cooling function helps prevent condensa-
tion on the windows or removes it quickly.
Depending on the weather, the windshield may
fog over briefly when the engine is started.
Air volume
Turn to adjust the air volume. The
higher the volume, the more effec-
tive the heating or cooling will be.
