Air distribution control
Read and observe
and on page 104 first.
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from getting in-to the vehicle, e.g. when driving through a tunnel or in a traffic jam.
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle and then
fed back into the interior.
Heating and air conditioning (manual air conditioning)
To turn the recirculation mode on or off, press the Symbol key
 .
The air recirculation mode is automatically turned off by turning the air distri-
bution control
C
to position 
» Fig. 111 on page 107 or » Fig. 112 on
page 107 .
Recirculated air mode can be switched on again from this position by repeat-
edly pressing the symbol button .
Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
To turn the recirculation mode on, press the Symbol key
 repeatedly until
the indicator light is lit on the left side of the button.
To activate the automatic recirculation mode, press the Symbol key  re-
peatedly until the indicator light is lit on the right side of the button.
Climatronic has an air quality sensor for the detection of the pollutant concen-
tration in the sucked-in air.
If a considerable increase in concentration of pollutants is recognised by the
air quality sensor, recirculated air mode will temporarily be switched on.
If the concentration of pollutants decreases to the normal level, the air distri-
bution control is automatically switched off so that fresh air can be guided into
the vehicle interior.
If the air quality sensor does not automatically switch on the recirculated air
mode in the event of an unpleasant odour, you can switch it on yourself by
pressing the button . The indicator light lights up in the button on the left
side.
To turn off the air recirculation or to deactivate the automatic air recircula-
tions , press the
 button of press the
 symbol button repeatedly until
the warning lights in the button go out.WARNINGThe recirculation system cannot be switched on for a longer period of time,
because there is no supply of fresh air from the outside. “Stale air” may re-
sult in fatigue in the driver and occupants, reduce attention levels and also
cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases.
Switch off recirculated air mode as soon as the windows start to mist up.
CAUTION
We recommend not smoking in the vehicle when the recirculating air operation
is switched on. The smoke sucked from inside the vehicle is deposited on the
evaporator of the air conditioner. This produces a permanent odour when the
air conditioning system is operating which can only be eliminated through con-
siderable effort and expense (replacement of compressor).
Note
The automatic air distribution control operates only if the outside temperature
is higher than approx. 2 °C.106Using the system

cator light in the button  is lit).
The interior temperature can be set between +18 °C and +26 ℃. The interior
temperature is regulated automatically within this range. 
CD108Using the system

If a temperature lower than +18 °C is selected, a blue symbol  lights up at the
start of the numerical scale.
If a temperature higher than +26 °C is selected, the 
symbol lights up at the
start of the numerical scale.
At both end positions, Climatronic runs at maximum cooling/heating output
and the temperature is automatically not regulated.
Controlling blower
The Climatronic system controls the blower stages automatically in line with the interior temperature. However, the blower stages can be manually adap-
ted to suit your particular needs.
If the blower speed is reduced to a minimum, Climatronic is switched off.
The set blower speed is displayed above the symbol button  when the re-
spective number of indicator lights come on.
Automatic mode
The automatic mode is used in order to maintain a constant temperature and to demist the windows in the interior of the car.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button  lights up, the Cli-
matronic operates in “HIGH”-mode. The “HIGH” mode is the standard setting of
the Climatronic.
Upon pressing the  button again, the Climatronic switches to “LOW”-mode
and the indicator light in the top left corner lights up. The Climatronic uses on-
ly in this mode the lower blower speed. However taking into account the noise
level, this is more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of the air
conditioning system is reduced particularly if the vehicle is fully occupied.
By pressing the button  again, it is changed to “HIGH”-mode.
Automatic mode is switched off by pressing one of the buttons for the air dis- tribution or by increasing/decreasing the blower speed. The temperature is
nevertheless regulated.WARNING■ Do not switch off the Climatronic system for longer than necessary.■Switch on the Climatronic system as soon as the windows mist up.Note■ Do not stick anything onto or cover the interior temperature sensorB » Fig. 113 as this could impair the functioning of the Climatronic.■
If the windscreen mists up, press the symbol button 
. Press the button
 once the windscreen has demisted.
■
During operation of the Climatronic, an increase in engine idle speed can oc-
cur under certain circumstances in order to ensure adequate heating comfort.
■
For vehicles with factory-fitted radio the Climatronic information also ap-
pears on its display. This function can be switched off, see » Radio manual .
Efficient handling of the cooling system
Read and observe
and on page 104 first.
The air conditioning system compressor uses power from the engine when incooling mode, which will affect the fuel consumption.
It recommended to open the windows or the doors of a vehicle for which the
interior has been strongly heated through the effect of direct sunlight in order
to allow the heated air to escape.
The cooling system should not be on if the windows are open.
For the sake of the environment
Pollutant emissions are also lower when fuel is being saved » page 140.
malfunctions
Read and observe
and on page 104 first.
If the cooling system does not operate at outside temperatures higher than +5°C, there is a problem in the system. The reasons for this may be.
› One of the fuses has blown. Check the fuse and replace if necessa-
ry » page 214 .
› The cooling system has switched off automatically for a short time because
the coolant temperature of the engine is too hot » page 31.
If you are not able to resolve the operational problem yourself, or if the cooler
output has reduced, switch off the cooling system and seek assistance from a
specialist garage.
