Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Heating and manual air conditioning
Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
Climatronic - automatic operation
Recirculation mode
Air discharge nozzles
The heater heats and ventilates the vehicle interior. The air conditioning sys-
tem also cools and dehumidifies the vehicle interior.
The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat
output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature.
The cooling system works under the following conditions.
The cooling system is switched on.

The engine is running.

The outside temperature is above 2 °C.

The blower is switched on.

When the cooling system is switched on, it prevents misting of the windscreen
and windows.
It is possible to boost the effectiveness of the cooling system by briefly acti-
vating the air recirculation system» page
Protecting health
To reduce health risks (e.g. common colds), the following instructions for the
use of the cooling system are to be observed.
▶
The difference between the outside temperature and the inside temperature
should not be greater than 5 °C.
▶
The cooling system should be turned off about 10 minutes before the end of
the journey.
▶
Once a year, the air conditioning should be disinfected by a specialist garage.

WARNING
The blower should always be on to prevent the windows from misting.
■
Otherwise there is a risk of an accident.
Under certain circumstances, air at a temperature of about 5 °C can flow
■
out of the vents when the cooling system is switched on.
Notice
95
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free of e.g. ice, snow or
■
leaves to ensure that the heating and cooling system operates properly.
96
After switching on the cooling Condensation from the evaporator of the air
97 ■
conditioning may drip down and form a puddle below the vehicle. This is not a
97
leak!
98
At high coolant temperature, the cooling system is switched off, to ensure
■
the engine cooling.
