Information about using 3-zone
automatic climate control
The following contains instructions and
recommendations to enable you to get the
most out of your automatic climate control.
R
Activate climate control using the à and
¿ buttons or the Á button on the
control panel for the climate control. The
indicator lamps in the à and ¿ or
Á buttons light up.
R
In automatic mode, you can also use the
ñ button on the control panel for the
climate control to set a climate mode
(FOCUS/MEDIUM/DIFFUSE). The
MEDIUM level is recommended.

Set the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †).
R
Only use the defrosting function briefly
until the windshield is clear again.

Only use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g.
if there are unpleasant outside odors or
when in a tunnel. The windows could
otherwise fog up, since no fresh air is drawn
into the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
