AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
*
Air supply
You can select blower speeds
from 1 to 4. Position 0: fan is
turned off. The button for recir-
culated air mode fully blocks the
supply of air from outside.
Heating and ventilation operate as of
position 1.
Temperature
Turn to the right, red, to increase
the temperature of the passen-
ger compartment.
Rapid heating: turn to the
extreme right. Then select a pleasant inte-
rior temperature.
Air distribution
Air distribution in upper body
region , upper body region
and footwell , footwell ,
footwell and windows , and
windows .
All intermediate positions are possible,
refer to illustration and overview on
page 67.
Rear window defroster
Rear window defroster switched
on:
Indicator lamp lights up.
As long as the indicator lamp is lit, the
heating operates at high power output:
rapid defrosting.
Indicator lamp goes out.
The heating continues to run with reduced
power output and then switches itself off
automatically.
Windshield heating*
Windshield heating switched on:
Indicator lamp lights up.
As long as the indicator lamp is
lit, the heating operates at high power out-
put: rapid defrosting.
Indicator lamp goes out.
The heating continues to run with reduced
power output and then switches itself off
automatically.
Air conditioning
Air conditioner switched on: indi-
cator lamp lights up.
The air is cooled and dehumidi-
fied and – depending on the temperature
setting – rewarmed.
Condensation on the windows is reduced
when the air conditioning is turned on.
When the air conditioner is operat-
ing, condensation is formed which
then exits under the vehicle. Traces of con-
densed water on the ground are therefore
normal.<
Recirculated air mode
Supply of outside air into the
vehicle is blocked:
Indicator lamp lights up.
The air within the vehicle is recirculated.
Do not run the recirculated air mode
over a longer period of time, as the air
quality in the vehicle's interior will other-
wise diminish.<
If the windows fog up in the recircu-
lated air mode, turn the recirculated
air mode off and if necessary increase the
air supply.<

when the air conditioning is turned on.
Condensation forms in the air condi-
tioning system during operation, and
then exits under the vehicle. Traces of con-
densed water on the ground are therefore
normal.
cle is blocked: indicator lamp lights

and the probability of a failure is very low,
provided that they are not switched on and
off an unusual number of times. If one of
these bulbs should nevertheless fail, it is
possible to continue driving with great cau-
tion using the fog lamps, provided traffic
laws in your area do not prohibit this.
Because of the extremely high volt-
ages involved, any work on the xenon
lighting system should be carried out by
technically qualified personnel only. Other-
wise, there is a risk of fatal injury.<
