Tips for pleasant drivingUse the automatic mode – switch on
with AUTO button 6. Select the desired
interior temperature.
Detailed setting options are described
for you in the following section.
You can make the settings of your
vehicle in such a manner that,
when you unlock the vehicle with the
remote control of your personal key,
your own personalized setting for the
automatic climate control is initiated.<AUTO program
The AUTO program adjusts the
air supply and the air distribu-
tion to the windshield and the side win-
dows, towards the upper body and to
the footwells, and in addition adapts
the temperature to external influences:
e.g. summer, winter.
The cooling function is automatically
switched on when you are using the
AUTO program.
Individual air distribution
You can cancel the AUTO pro-
gram by selecting specific dis-
tribution patterns to suit your
own individual requirements.
While the AUTO program is then deacti-
vated, the automatic airflow control
remains in operation. Air flows onto
the windows , toward the upper
body , and into the footwell . You
can reactivate the automatic air distri-
bution mode by selecting the AUTO
button.Temperature
The interior temperature that
appears in the display panel is a
general figure intended for refer-
ence purposes. We recommend 727/
+226 as a comfortable setting, even if
the air conditioning is on. When you
start the vehicle, the system ensures
that the selected temperature is
achieved as quickly as possible. It then
maintains this temperature, regardless
of the season.
To select the units of measure 7/6 of
the display, refer to page 88.
Air supply/Blower
By pressing the upper or lower
button, you can vary the air sup-
ply. This deactivates the auto-
matic control of the air supply, AUTO
disappears from the display panel. Nev-
ertheless, the automatic air distribution
remains unchanged. You can reactivate
the automatic air distribution mode by
selecting the AUTO button.
When the lowest blower speed is set
and you press the lower button, all of
the displays are canceled: the blower,
heating and air conditioning are
switched off. The outside air supply is
blocked. You can reactivate the system
by pressing any button for the auto-
matic climate control.To defrost windows and remove
condensation
This program quickly removes
ice and condensation from the
windshield and the side windows.
Air conditioning
The air is cooled and dehumidi-
fied and – depending on the
temperature setting – rewarmed.
Depending on the weather, the wind-
shield may fog over briefly when the
engine is started. Air conditioning helps
prevent the windows from fogging up.
The cooling function is automatically
switched on when you are using the
AUTO program.

Condensation forms during opera-
tion of the air conditioning system,
which then exits under the vehicle. It is
thus not unusual for a small puddle to
form under the car while the system is
running.<
Outside air/Automatic
recirculated-air control (AUC)/
Recirculated air
You can respond to unpleasant
external odors or pollutants by
temporarily stopping the flow of outside
air. The system then recirculates the air
currently within the vehicle.
Press the button repeatedly to select
one of three different operating modes.
>Indicator lamps off: outside airflow is
on
>Left indicator lamp on – automatic
mode: the system recognizes pollut-
ants in the outside air and blocks the
flow of air when necessary. The sys-
tem then recirculates the air currently
within the vehicle. Depending on the
air quality, the automatic system then
switches back and forth between
outside air supply and recirculation of
the air within the vehicle
>Right indicator lamp on: the flow of
outside air into the vehicle is perma-
nently blocked. The system then
recirculates the air currently within
the vehicle.
If the windows should fog over in
the recirculated-air mode, switch
this mode off and increase the air sup-
ply as required.<Rear window defroster
With the convertible top closed
or with the hardtop* mounted,
press the button. The indicator lamp
comes on. The rear window defroster
switches off automatically after a short
while.
You can have your vehicle pro-
grammed in such a way that the
rear window defroster switches on
automatically. This occurs within 5 min-
utes after starting the engine when out-
side temperatures are below approx.
397/+46.<
Draft-free ventilationYou can adjust the blower controls for
the upper body area to obtain the opti-
mum airflow rates and directions for
your personal requirements:
1Rotary dials for infinitely variable
opening and closing of the vent out-
lets
2Levers for airflow direction
3With the rotary dial, you can add
more or less cool air to the air coming
from the outlets for the upper body
area:
>Rotate toward blue – colder
>Turn toward red – warmer.

Integrated universal remote control*The conceptThe integrated universal remote control
takes the place of up to three different
handheld transmitters belonging to var-
ious radio remote control devices, such
as door openers and home alarm sys-
tems. The integrated universal remote
control recognizes and learns the signal
sent by each original control device.
The signal of an original control device
can be programmed into one of the
three memory buttons 1. Afterwards,
the programmed memory button 1 can
be used to operate the corresponding
device. The signal transmission is indi-
cated by the indicator lamp 2.
Before selling the vehicle, clear the
memory buttons 1, refer to page 112.
While programming is in progress
and before operating any pro-
grammed system by remote control
using the integrated universal remote
control, make sure that the area of
movement of the system in question is
clear of people, animals and inanimate
obstructions, in order to avoid possible
injury or damage. Also comply with the
safety precautions issued for the origi-
nal control device.<
Checking compatibility
If this symbol is depicted on the
packaging or in the operating
instructions of the original con-
trol device, it is safe to assume that the
remote-controlled system is compatible
with the integrated universal remote
control.
