A WARNING
Stale air can quickly make the driver tired and affect their concentration, which in turn can cause collisions, accidents and serious inju-ries.
• Never switch off the blowers or switch on the air recirculatlon mode for an extended pe-riod as this prevents fresh air from entering the vehicle Interior.
.........r'n First read and observe the Introductory L-.lr:.ll Information and safety warnings & on page 322.
The cooling system for the vehicle interior only works when the engine is running and the blower is switched on.
The air conditioning system operates most effec-tively with the windows and the sliding/tilting roof closed. However, if the vehicle has heated up after standing in the sun for some time, the air inside can be cooled more quickly by opening the win-dows and the sliding/tilting roof for a short time.
Settings for optimal road visibility
Switching the cooling system on not only reduces the temperature of the vehicle interior, but also the humidity. This improves comfort for the vehicle oc-cupants and prevents the windows from misting when the outside humidity is high.
Climatic
• Switch off air recirculation mode 330.
• Set the blowers to the required level.
• Set the temperature to +22•c (+72.F).
• Open and position all vents on the dash panel 329.
• Turn the air distribution controller to the desired position.
• Press the@) button to switch the cooling sys-tem on. The indicator lamp in the button lights up.
328 I While driving
Cllmatronlc
• Press button.
• Set the temperature to +22•c (+72.F).
• Open and position all vents on the dash panel 329.
The cooling system cannot be switched on
The following criteria may prevent the cooling sys-tem from being switched on:
• The engine is not running.
• The blower is switched off.
• The air conditioning system fuse has blown.
• The ambient temperature is lower than approxi-mately +3"C (+38°F).
• The compressor has been temporarily switched off because the coolant temperature is too high.
• There is a different fault in the vehicle. The air conditioning system should be checked by a quali-fied workshop.
Things to note
If the humidity and temperature outside the vehicle are high, condensation can drip off the evaporator in the cooling system and form a pool underneath the vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate a

if the outside temperature is very low or very high, the manual air recirculation mode should be selec-ted for a short time in order to heat or cool the ve-hicle interior more quickly.
For safety reasons, the air recirculation mode will switch off if the@ button is pressed, or if the air distribution regulator is switched to lliil => .1:!,.

concentration of noxious substances in the outside air. The air recirculation mode will switch off as soon as this level has returned to normal.
The system cannot detect unpleasant odours.
The air recirculation mode will not be switched on automatically in certain circumstances such as when the ambient temperature is low or the air conditioning system has been switched on.
Switching the automatic air recirculation mode on and off
Switching on: press button repeatedly until the right indicator lamp in the button lights up.
Switching off: press button repeatedly until the indicator lamp in the button is no longer lit up.
A WARNING
Stale air can quickly make the driver tired and affect their concentration, which In turn can cause collisions, accidents and serious inju-ries.
• Never use the air reclrculation mode for an extended period as no fresh air will enter the vehicle Interior.
• If the cooling system is switched off, the windows can mist up very quickly In air recir-culatlon mode and reduce visibility consider-ably.
• Always switch off the air reclrculation mode when it is not required.
CD
In vehicles with an air conditioning system, do not smoke when the air reclrculatlon mode Is switched on. The smoke drawn Into the cooling system can leave a residue on the evaporator and the dust and pollen filter with active carbon insert, producing a lasting unpleasant odour.
m Cllmatronic: when reversing the vehicle, or l!J when the wash and wipe system is being used, the air recirculation mode will switch on tem-porarily to prevent exhaust emissions from entering the vehicle interior.

When changing the batteries, ensure you insert them the right way (poles) and that they are the same type
Range
The receiver is located in the vehicle interior. The remote control key has a range of several hundred metres when the battery is fully charged. The range of the remote control key can be considera-bly reduced by obstacles between the remote con-trol key and the vehicle, bad weather conditions, and a flat battery.
To achieve optimal range, hold the remote control vertically with the aerial 266 or 267 at the top. Do not hold the aer-ial with your fingers or the palm of your hand.
The distance between the remote control and the vehicle must be at least 2 metres.
CD
• The remote control contains electronic com-ponents. Protect the remote control from mois-ture, excessive vibration and direct sunlight.
• Unsuitable batteries can damage the remote control. Only replace discharged batteries with a new battery of the same voltage rating, size and specification.
Discharged batteries must be disposed of in W accordance with regulations governing the protection of the environment.
The battery in the remote control may contain W perchlorate. Please comply with legislation regarding disposal.

Cleaning opaque shades 393
Modern fabrics, such as dark denim, are often not colourfast. Light-coloured upholstery (soft materials or leather) is particularly sensitive to staining caused by these fabrics, even if you are careful. This is not caused by a fault in the upholstery, but by the non-colourfast nature of the garments.
Leaving stains, dirt and other deposits on the sur-face of vehicle components and cloth seat covers for a long time can make it difficult to clean and treat them. Stains, dirt and deposits may become impossible to remove, particularly if left for a long time.
Additional information and warnings:
