Independent ventilation
System operation is controlled using the
Control Center. You can set two different
times for the system to start.
The independent ventilation blows air into
the passenger compartment to lower inte-
rior temperatures.
The system remains on for 30 minutes.
You can also switch the system on and off
manually. Since the system uses a sub-
stantial amount of electrical current, you
should refrain from activating it twice in
succession without allowing the battery to
be recharged in normal operation between
use.
The independent ventilation is available for
preprogrammed operation at outside tem-
peratures above approx. 59 7/156 and
for direct activation at any temperature, but
is not operational when the vehicle is
underway.
The air enters the passenger compartment
through the vent outlets in the instrument
panel, which can be adjusted for both
direction and airflow. These outlets must
be open for the system to operate.
