- To prevent interference with the heating
and cooling output and to prevent the win
dows from fogging over, the air intake in
front of the windshie ld must be free of ice,
snow or leaves.
- Condensation from the cooling system can
dr ip and form a pudd le of water under the
vehicle . This is norma l and does not mean
there is a leak.
- The energy management system may tem porarily switch
off certain functions, such as
the seat heating* o r rear window defogger.
T hese systems are ava ilable again as soon
