Overview of climate control systems

General notes

Observe the settings recommended on the

following pages. The windows could other-

wise fog up.
To prevent the windows from fogging up:

R

switch off climate control only briefly

R

switch on air-recirculation mode only

briefly

R

switch on the cooling with air dehumidifi-

cation function

R

switch on the defrost windshield function

briefly, if required

Climate control regulates the temperature

and air humidity in the vehicle interior. The air

filter cleans the air, thus improving the inte-

rior climate.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" func-

tion is only available when the engine is run-

ning. Optimum climate control is only ach-

ieved with the side windows and roof closed.
The residual heat function can only be acti-

vated or deactivated with the ignition

switched off (

Y

page 139).

i

Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period

during warm weather, e.g. using the con-

venience opening feature (

Y

page 95). This

will speed up the cooling process and the

desired interior temperature will be

reached more quickly.

i

The integrated filter filters out most par-

ticles of dust and soot and completely fil-

ters out pollen. It also reduces gaseous pol-

lutants and odors. A clogged filter reduces

the amount of air supplied to the vehicle

interior. For this reason, you should always

observe the interval for replacing the filter,

which is specified in the Maintenance

Booklet. As it depends on environmental

conditions, e.g. heavy air pollution, the

interval may be shorter than stated in the

Maintenance Booklet.

i

It is possible that the blower may be acti-

vated automatically 60 minutes after the

SmartKey has been removed depending on

various factors, e.g. the outside tempera-

ture. The vehicle is then ventilated for

30 minutes to dry the climate control sys-

tem.
