Climate Control
5.3
Climate System Operation
The air conditioning compressor and heater will only be
available whilst the engine is running.
Powertrain systems such as the high voltage battery, inverter,
dc-dc converter and e-motor use the same air conditioning
system as the cabin. To make sure the vehicle operates as
intended, these systems will take priority over cabin cooling. If
any of these systems become too hot, cabin cooling will be
decreased to make sure these critical powertrain components
can be sufficiently cooled.
The climate control system for this vehicle uses a compressor
driven by the high voltage electrical system and a Positive
Temperature Coefficient (PTC) heater to provide cabin heating,
replacing the need for a traditional circulated coolant system.
Automatic Climate Control
The temperature is maintained at a set level in automatic mode.
The climate system will automatically control the temperature,
airflow and the air distribution according to the interior and
exterior conditions.
To set a temperature for automatic operation:
• Set a temperature.
•Press
• The LED indicator lamp will switch on.
Any changes to the air distribution or airflow speed will cancel
automatic climate control.
