position. The indicator lamp on the

Air conditioning

The cooling function, only operational
when the engine is running, cools the
vehicle down to the selected interior
temperature. The cooling function also
dehumidifies the air in the vehicle interior,
thereby preventing the windows from
fogging up.

Deactivating

It is possible to deactivate the air condi-
tioning (cooling) function of the automatic
climate control system. The air in the
vehicle will then no longer be cooled or
dehumidified.

The air conditioning uses the refrigerant
R-134a. This refrigerant is free of CFCs
which are harmful to the ozone layer.

i

Condensation may drip out from underneath

the vehicle. This is normal and not an indication
of a malfunction.

Warning!

G

If you turn off the cooling function, the

interior air is not dried. The windows can fog

up more quickly. Window fogging may

impair visibility and endanger you and

others.

!

If the air conditioning cannot be turned on

again, this indicates that the air conditioning is
losing refrigerant. The compressor has turned
off.

Have the air conditioning checked at the nearest
authorized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
