The Climatronic in automatic mode ensures the best-possible setting of the tem-
perature of the outflowing air, the blower stage and air distribution.
The system also takes sunlight into account, which eliminates the need to alter
the settings manually.
The cooling system only operates if the following conditions are met.
The cooling system is switched on » page 82, Control elements.
The engine is running.
The outside temperature is above approx. +2 °C.
The cooling system is switched off at excessive coolant temperatures in order to
guarantee a cooling effect when the engine is under a high load.
Note
We recommend that you have Climatronic cleaned by a specialist garage once ev-
ery year.
