notes
Observe thesettings recom mended onthe fol-
lowing pages. Thewindows couldotherwise
fog up.
To preven tthe windows fromfogging up:
R switch offclimate control only briefly
R switch onair-rec irculation modeonlybriefly
R switch onthe cooling withairdehumidifica-

R switch onthe defrost windshield function
briefly, ifrequired
The air-con ditionin gsystem ordual-zon eauto-
matic climate control regulates thetemper a-
ture andthehumidity ofthe vehicle interior
and filters undesirable substancesfrom the
air.
The air-con ditionin gsystem ordual-zon eauto-
matic climate control can only beoperated
when theengin eis runn ing.Optimum opera-
tion isonly achieved withtheside windows
and panorama roofwith power tilt/sliding
panel closed.
If you start theengine usingyoursmart phone,
the last select edclimate control settingis
react ivated (Ypage 84).
The residual heatfunction canonly beactiva-
ted ordeactivat edwith theignition switched
off (Ypage 122). Always
keepthevent ilation flapsbehind the
side trimpanel inthe cargo compart ment
clear (Ypage 108). Otherwisethevehicle will
not bevent ilated correctly.

ilate thevehicle forabrief period dur-
ing warm weather, e.g.using theconveni-
ence opening feature(Ypage 84).This will
speed upthe cooling process andthe
desired interiortemper aturewillbereached
more quickly.
