Climate control functions in detail
Switching the system on/off
Switching on
Press any button except for the following:
▷ Rear window defroster.
▷ Seat heating.
Switching off
Press and hold the left button until the
control switches off.
Temperature
Concept
The system heats or cools, depending on the set
temperature.
Settings
Turn the ring to set the desired
temperature.
To reduce the energy consump‐
tion, the cooling or heating output
is reduced or deactivated as per
ECO-PRO mode, refer to page 205.
Air conditioning
Concept
The air in the car's interior will be cooled and de‐
humidified and, depending on the temperature
setting, warmed again.
Cooling of the car's interior with the A/C button is
only possible with drive-ready state switched on.
Switching on/off
Press button.
The LED is illuminated with air conditioning
switched on.
Depending on the weather, the windshield and
side windows may fog up briefly when drive-
ready state is activated.
The air conditioner produces condensation wa‐
ter, refer to page 201, that will exit from below
the vehicle.
Recirculated-air mode
Concept
You may react to unpleasant odors or pollutants
in the immediate environment by temporarily
suspending the supply of outside air. The system
then recirculates the air flow within the vehicle.
Operation
Press button repeatedly to select an op‐
erating mode:
▷ LED off: outside air flows in continuously.
▷ LED on, recirculated-air mode: the supply of
outside air into the vehicle is permanently
blocked.
To prevent window fogging, recirculated-air
mode switches off automatically after a certain
amount of time, depending on the environmental
conditions.
With constant recirculated-air mode, the air qual‐
ity in the car's interior deteriorates and the fog‐
ging of the windows increases.
If the windows fog over, switch off recirculated-
air mode and increase the air flow, if needed.
Controlling the air flow manually
Concept
The air flow for climate control can be adjusted
manually.
