up in wet weather, it's a good idea to open the

Defroster
The windscreen and side windows are defrosted
or demisted as quickly as possible. The air output
is increased to maximum and most of the air
comes out of the outlets below the windscreen.
The air recirculation mode is deactivated. The
temperature should be set to 22 °C or higher.
The temperature is regulated automatically. At
setting

the A/C cooling mode is automatically
activated depending on the ambient tempera­

ture.

Air recirculation mode
The air recirculation mode can be switched on
manually or automatically*.

on/off, press the

be activated on the infotainment system. Se­
lect the following on the infotainment system:

|MENU|
button > Car > left control button > A/C
> Auto recirculation. The air quality sensor,
which is designed for the detection of diesel
and petrol exhaust fumes, automatically
switches the air recirculation mode on or off
depending on the
level
of pollution in the out­
side air.
In air recirculation mode, the air from the interi­
or of the vehicle is filtered and recirculated. This
setting prevents fumes etc. from entering the in­
terior. We recommend switching on the air recir­
culation mode when driving through a tunnel or
in traffic queues

Rear window heating
If the rear window heating is activated with the
ignition switched on, the battery management
determines whether or not the battery charge
level is sufficient for the rear window heating to
be switched on. Otherwise the rear window heat­
ing operates when the engine is running, and
switches off automatically after about
10 - 20 minutes, depending on the outside
tem­

perature.
To switch on the rear window heating perma­
nently, press and hold the
S
button for at least
2 seconds. This setting will be stored for approxi­
mately 15 minutes after the ignition is switched

off.

^
Seat heating*
When you press the
«r
button, the seat heating is
switched on at level 3 (the highest level). The
LEDs indicate the temperature level. To reduce
the temperature, press the button again. To
switch off the seat heating, press the button re­
peatedly until all the LEDs have gone out.
The seat heating automatically switches from
level 3 to level 2 after about 10 minutes.
A WARNING
For reasons of safety you should not leave
the air recirculation switched on for too

long.
This mode prevents fresh air from en­
tering the vehicle, so the windows can mist
