Heating and ventilation/Air conditionerAir supply
You can select blower speeds
from 1 to 4. The higher the
setting, the greater the
amount of heat and air supply.
In position 0, the blower, heating and
air conditioner are switched off.
Temperature
In order to increase the inte-
rior temperature, turn to the
right. For rapid heating, turn
completely to the right. Then
select an interior temperature that is
comfortable for you.
Air distribution
You can direct the airflow onto
the windows , toward the
upper body and into the
footwell . You can also
make all intermediate settings. The
"6 o'clock" setting is recommended for
normal conditions (refer also to the
illustration and overview on page 72).
Recirculated-air mode
If there are unpleasant odors
in the incoming air, you can
temporarily block the air
supply. The system then recir-
culates the air already within the
vehicle.
If condensation starts to form on
window surfaces during operation
in the recirculated-air mode, switch this
mode off and increase the air supply as
required, or press the button for
"Defrosting windows and removing
condensation".<
Incoming-air mode
Recommended when driving
with the convertible top down.
The degree to which the
passenger compartment is
heated depends on temperature selec-
tion and air distribution.
Air conditioner/Incoming-air
mode
The air is cooled and dehu-
midified and Ð depending on
the temperature setting Ð
warmed again when the air
conditioner is switched on.
Depending on the weather, the wind-
shield may fog over briefly when the
engine is started.
Use the button to switch the air condi-
tioner off at outside temperatures
below approx. 41 7(5 6). This will
help to prevent condensation from
forming on window surfaces.
If the windows fog over after switching
the air conditioner off, switch it back
on.
Air conditioner/Recirculated-air
mode
You may find it useful to acti-
vate both systems to cool the
vehicle more rapidly after it
has been parked with the top
up on a hot day. This setting provides
the coldest possible airflow from the
vent outlets (with temperature selection
switch turned all the way to the left).
