WARNING
Observe the settings recommended on the
following pages. Otherwise, the windows
could mist up. This may obstruct your view of
the traffic situation and, as a result, you may
cause an accident.
THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control
regulates the temperature and the humidity
in the vehicle interior and filters undesirable
substances out of the air.
THERMOTRONIC automatic climate control is
only operational if the engine is running. The
system only works optimally if the side win-
dows and the roof are closed.
i
Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period
during warm weather. This will speed up the
cooling process and the desired vehicle
interior temperature will be reached more
quickly.
i
The integrated filter can filter out most
particles of dust and completely filters out
pollen. 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 Service Booklet. As it
depends on environmental conditions, e.g.
page 17).
Y
heavy air pollution, the interval may be
shorter than stated in the Service Booklet.
