Programming II
It is also possible to customize the ACC system to adapt to driving
and weather conditions.
Programming and cancellation of programming is carried out by
holding the appropriate button down until the corresponding symbol
has flashed 4 times, an audible signal has sounded and the follow-
ing text for the desired function has appeared in the SID.
Make sure the ignition is ON.
Example:
If you want to control the switching on and off of the heating for the
rear window and the door mirrors manually, hold the button
depressed until the symbol has flashed 4 times, an audible signal
has sounded and the following text has appeared in the SID.
SID shows:
ACC: MANUAL
RDEFR CTRL
Once a function has been recorded under ”Programming II”, it will
remain in the system until you cancel the program.
AUTO will still show on the display after a function has been saved
in ”Programming II”.
Additional programming features, see page 255.

The A/C compressor is not
switched on until the out-
side temperature goes
above +55°F (+13°C).
– This function can be used
to save fuel, since the A/C
compressor will not be in
action for so long a time.
In wet weather, however,
the A/C compressor should
be on at below 57°F (14°C)
as well, since this reduces
the risk of misting on the
windows. A/C compressor cuts in
when outside tempera-
ture is above 32°F
(0°C).
Rear-window heating can
only be switched on manu-
ally. The heating will come on
about five seconds after
the engine has started if
the outside temperature
is below +41°F (+5°C).
–The activation time
depends on the outside
temperature.
