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:
switch off climate control only briefly
R
switch on air-recirculation mode only
R
briefly
switch on the cooling with air dehumidifi-
R
cation function
switch on the defrost windshield function
R
briefly, if required
Climate control regulates the temperature
and air humidity in the vehicle interior. The
interior filter cleans the air, thus improving
the interior climate.
The cooling with air dehumidification function
is only available when the engine is running.
Optimum climate control is only achieved
with the side windows closed.
Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period
i
during warm weather, e.g. using the con-
venience opening feature (see the Digital
Operator's Manual, keyword "Convenience
opening"). This will speed up the cooling
process and the desired interior tempera-
ture will be reached more quickly.

The integrated filter filters out most par-
i
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.
It is possible that the blower may be acti-
i
vated automatically 60 minutes after the
engine has been switched off 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.
