Depending on the selected temperature, AUTO
intensity, and outside influences, the air is di‐
rected to the windshield, side windows, upper
body, and into the footwell.
The cooling function is switched on automati‐
cally with the AUTO program.
At the same time, a condensation sensor con‐
trols the program in such a way that window
condensation is prevented as much as possible.
To switch off the program: press the button
again or manually adjust the air distribution.

Intensity of the AUTO program

Pressing the AUTO button repeatedly adjusts
the intensity of the AUTO program. The se‐
lected intensity, SOFT, MEDIUM or INTENSIVE,
appears on the display of the automatic climate
control.

Temperature

Turn the wheel to set the desired
temperature.
The automatic climate control ach‐
ieves this temperature as quickly as

possible, if necessary with the maximum cooling
or heating capacity, and then keeps it constant.

Avoid rapidly switching between different tem‐
perature settings. The automatic climate control
will not have sufficient time to adjust the set
temperature.
Maximum heating power can be obtained with
the highest setting, regardless of the external
temperature.
At the lowest setting, cooling is continuous, re‐
gardless of the external temperature.

This function can be used to adjust the air tem‐
perature for the upper body region.
