Warning!

G

When operating the automatic climate

control, the air that enters the passenger

compartment through the air vents can be

very hot or very cold (depending on the set

temperature). This may cause burns or frost-

bite on unprotected skin in the immediate

area of the air vents. Always keep sufficient

distance between unprotected parts of the

body and the air vents. If necessary, use the

air distribution controls (

page 184) to

direct the air to air vents in the vehicle

interior that are not in the immediate area of

unprotected skin.
