Economical use of the climate control
system
Economical use of the climate control system helps save
fuel.
When the climate control system is working in cooling mode,
engine performance is reduced and fuel consumption is
affected. To keep the time the climate control system is on as
short as possible, you should do the following :
- To save fuel, turn off cooling mode by pressing the [AC]
button (indicator light goes out).
- In addition, if you open the window while driving, turn off cooling mode by pressing the
[AC] button (indicator light
goes out).
- If the vehicle is extremely hot due to the heat of the sun,
briefly open doors and windows.
For the sake of the environment
When you save fuel, you reduce emissions from the vehicle. •
App lies to veh ic les: with del uxe automatic climate control
Automatic recirculation
An air quality sensor detects increased concentrations of
pollutants in the outside air and automatically switches
to recirculation mode.
The basic climate control settings can be adjusted in the
radio or
MMI*.
- Select: Function button [CAR]> Climate control switch.
We recommend that you always keep automatic recirculation ON to
prevent polluted outside ai r from entering the vehicle interior.
If the
air quality sensor located in the climate control system detects
polluted outside air, the sensor decides whether the air pollution can
be reduced by the factory-installed pollutant filter or whether it is
necessary to switch to recirculation . With heavy concentrations of
pollutants, the climate control system is switched automatically to
recirculation mode and the supply of outside air is blocked . As soon
as the concentration of pollutants in the outside air drops, fresh air is
supplied to the vehicle interior again.
In the event tha t the windows fog up during au tomatic recircula tion,
press the[@] button immediately.
Under certain operating conditions, automatic recirculation is
switched off automatically. When outside temperatures are below
about SO
°F ( + 10 °(), automatic recirculation is limited to
30 seconds. When outside temperatures are below about 30
°F (-
1 °(), automatic recirculation is limited to 15 seconds .•
