Automatic climate control *
Residual heat
The heat which is stored in
the engine is utilized for
heating the interior when the engine
has been switched off – while waiting at
a railroad crossing, for instance.
You can adjust the automatic climate
control settings in ignition key position 1.
With the ignition key in position 0, the
system automatically directs heated air
to the windshield, side windows and
footwells.
This function may be activated
when the outside temperature is
below approx. 59 7/156, the engine
is at operating temperature, and the
battery is adequately charged. The LED
on the button will light up when all con-
ditions have been met.

the vent outlets through an infinitely-

the temperature of the incoming air.
