The "Cooling with air dehumidification" function
is available only when the engine is running.
Optimum operation is only achieved when the
side windows and the sliding sunroof are closed.
Climate comfort may be adversely affected if the
sliding sunroof is open for a long period of time.
Set the temperature manually if the sliding sun-
roof is open.
The "Residual heat" function can be switched on
or off only when the ignition is switched off
(

The integrated filter can filter out most particles
of dust and completely filters out pollen. A clog-
ged filter reduces the amount of air supplied to
the vehicle interior. Depending on the operating
conditions and environmental influences, the
interval for replacing the filter may be shorter
than specified.
