Ionization
Ionization is used to purify the air in the vehicle
interior and attain an improved interior climate.
The ionization of the interior air is odorless and
cannot be perceived directly in the vehicle inte-
rior.
You can switch ionization on/off using the mul-
timedia system (
Ypage 258).
Ionization can only be operated when the auto-
matic climate control is switched on. The side air
vent on the driver's side must be open.
