When you turn the thumbwheels 4
and 7 upwards to the first stop, the
fixed center air vents 3 and 8 and
the adjustable center air vents 5
and 6 are open.
When you turn the thumbwheels com-
pletely upwards, only the adjustable
center air vents 5 and 6 are open.
For draft-free ventilation, move the slid-
ers for the center air vents 5 and 6
to the middle position.

Severe conditions (e.g. strong air pollu-
tion) may require replacement of the fil-
ter before its scheduled interval. A
clogged filter will reduce the air volume
to the interior.
If the vehicle interior is hot, ventilate
the interior before driving off.
When the retractable hardtop is closed,
do not obstruct air flow by placing ob-
jects on the air flow-through exhaust
slots below the rear window.
Keep the air intake grille in front of the
windshield free of snow and debris.
