The LEDs on the Climatronic controls indicate that the selected function has
been activated.
In addition, the radio or radio and navigation displays mounted at factory
briefly display the current settings of the Climatronic if any are modified.
The symbols used on the radio or radio and navigation displays are the
same as the symbols used for the Climatronic controls. 
Automatic mode
In automatic mode air temperature, air flow and distribution
are automatically regulated so that a specified temperature
is attained as quickly as possible and then maintained. The temperature can be adjusted separately for the left and right
sides of the vehicle interior.
Switching on automatic mode
– Press the AUTO
⇒ 
fig. 110 button. “AUTO High” is shown on the
radio display (high fan speed).
– Press the AUTO
button again ⇒ fig. 110. “AUTO Low” is shown
on the radio display (low fan speed).
Depending upon the version and finish, the vehicle may include: When a temperature of 22°C (72°F) is set in automatic mode a comfortable
interior climate is quickly reached. Therefore, we recommend you not to
change this adjustment, except as necessary to suit individual preferences
or particular circumstances. The inside temperature can be set between
+18°C (64°F) and +26°C (80°F). These are approximate temperatures and
the actual temperature may be slightly higher or lower depending on the
ambient conditions.
Climatronic maintains a constant temperature. The temperature of the air
supplied to the interior, the blower speed and the air distribution are regu-
lated automatically. The system also considers the sunlight radiation, so
there is no need for manual readjustment. Therefore,
automatic mode al-
most always provides the best comfort for the vehicle occupants throughout
the year.
Automatic mode is switched off whenever an adjustment is made using the
buttons for the air distribution, air flow or 
or the air recirculation button
. The temperature will continue to be regulated within the parameters
manually selected by the user.
Note
There are two automatic modes:
● Automatic mode LO: This calculates the air flow for two people.
● Automatic mode HI: This calculates the air flow for more than two peo-
ple. 

These are approximate temperatures and the actual temperature may be
slightly higher or lower depending on the ambient conditions.
If a temperature below 18°C (64°F) is selected, the display switches to LO In
this setting the system runs at maximum cooling output and the tempera-
ture is not regulated. If a temperature above 26°C (80°F) is selected, the display switches to
HI In
this setting the system runs at maximum heating output and the tempera-
ture is not regulated.
Blower
The air flow may be adjusted freely using the control 10
. Always have the
blower running at a low setting to ensure a constant flow of fresh air into
the vehicle. Pushing the button  to the minimum -1, turns the Climatronic
