In cold weather with the engine cold, 
the air flow is increased gradually until 
the system has warmed up, in order 
to limit the delivery of cold air into the 
passenger compartment.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior 
temperature is much colder or warmer 
than the comfort value setting, there 
is no need to alter the value displayed 
in order to reach more quickly the 
required level of comfort. The system 
compensates automatically and 
corrects the temperature difference as 
quickly as possible.
This setting is associated with AUTO mode 
only. However, on deactivation of AUTO mode, 
the last setting used remains on.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO 
mode if deactivated. To change the current setting press the button
