culated air mode fully blocks the

supply of air from outside.

The heating, ventilation and air condition-
ing operate in position 1 or higher.

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.

Rear window defroster

Rear window defroster switched
on:
Indicator lamp lights up.

As long as the indicator lamp is lit, the win-
dow heater is operating.
The heater switches off automatically after
a short time.

Windshield heating*

Windshield heating switched on:
Indicator lamp lights up.
As long as the indicator lamp is

lit, the window heater is operating.
The heater switches off automatically after
a short time.

Air conditioning

Air conditioning switched on:
indicator lamp lights up.
The air is cooled and dehumidi-

fied and, depending on the temperature
setting, rewarmed.
After the engine has started, the wind-
shield can temporarily fog over. Condensa-
tion on the windows is reduced when the
air conditioning is turned on.

When the air conditioning is on, con-
densation is formed which then exits

under the vehicle. Traces of condensed
water on the ground are therefore nor-
mal.

Recirculated air mode

Supply of outside air into the
vehicle is blocked:
Indicator lamp lights up.

The air within the vehicle is recirculated.

If the windows fog up in the recircu-
lated air mode, turn the recirculated

air mode off and if necessary increase the
air supply. The recirculated air mode should
not be constantly used over a longer period
of time, as the air quality in the vehicle's
interior will otherwise gradually deterio-
rate.
