We recommend pressing the AUTO button and setting the temperature to 22 °C (72 °F). The air conditioner is fully automatic, and will maintain the desired temperature at a constant level. The temperature of the air supplied to the interior, the blower speed and the air distribution are regulated automatically. When the heater is on, the blower normally only switches to a higher speed once the coolant has warmed up sufficiently (this does not apply to the defrost setting). Key-coded settings: The automatic air conditioner settings are automatically stored and assigned to the remote control key which is being used.

The air cooling mode is switched on/off when the A/C button is pressed. When the air cooling is switched off, the air is neither cooled nor dehumidified. The windows may mist up as a result. The air cooling is switched off automatically at low outside temperatures (below zero).

The automatic mode is switched on when the AUTO button is pressed. The AUTO mode is switched off immediately when you operate any of the manual air controls. The automatic mode maintains a constant temperature inside the vehicle. Air temperature, output and distribution are regulated automatically. The "eco" mode^*1) is activated if you press the button briefly while automatic mode is active. The settings respond more passively in this mode. The "eco" mode^* is on when eco appears in the console display. The "eco" mode^* is deactivated when you press the AUTO button again.

The temperature setting can be controlled individually via the controls for the driver's and front passenger's side. The temperature can be adjusted between about +16 °C (low) and +28 °C (high). In the two extreme settings the air conditioner operates continuously with maximum cooling or heating output, and the temperature is not regulated automatically.

Synchronisation: By pressing the AUTO button for 2 seconds, the temperature of the passenger's side can be set to the temperature of the driver's side. The settings remain synchronised until the temperature is changed on the passenger's side.

You should leave the blower on at a low setting to prevent the windows from misting up. You can adjust the blower speed manually. Press the AUTO button for automatic control of the blower speed.

Buttons , and are used to adjust the air distribution. Press the AUTO button for automatic air distribution.

The round air outlets in the dashboard can be adjusted ►Link.

The intensity and direction of the air flow can be varied directly by adjusting the round air outlets in the front cabin. To do so, turn the ribbed outer adjustment ring and move the inside grille. To shut off the supply of air at one of the air outlets, turn the ribbed outer adjustment ring clockwise as far as it will go.

The outlets can be adjusted to provide a direct or indirect air flow.

To prevent the front side windows from misting up in wet weather, it's a good idea to open the side air outlets, point them to the side and select the "spot" setting.

Foot-level air outlets underneath the front seats and adjustable air outlets at the end of the centre console are provided to heat the rear cabin.

The windscreen and side windows are defrosted or demisted as quickly as possible. The air output is increased to maximum and most of the air comes out of the outlets below the windscreen. The air recirculation mode is deactivated. The temperature is regulated automatically. At setting the A/C cooling mode is automatically activated depending on the ambient temperature.

The defroster is switched off when the AUTO button is pressed.

The air recirculation mode can be switched on manually or automatically^*.

In air recirculation mode, the air from the interior of the vehicle is filtered and recirculated. This setting prevents fumes etc. from entering the interior. We recommend switching on the air recirculation mode when driving through a tunnel or in traffic queues WARNING!.

The air recirculation mode is switched off when the AUTO or button is pressed.

If the engine is cold, the air conditioner will automatically switch to air recirculation mode when the vehicle is reversing.
