Activating/deactivating the cooling
with air dehumidification function
General notes
If you deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehu-
midification" function, the air inside the vehi-
cle will not be cooled. The air inside the vehi-
cle will also not be dehumidified. The win-
dows can mist up more quickly. Therefore,
deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehumidifi-
cation" function only briefly.
For vehicles without hybrid drive, the "Cooling
with air dehumidification" function is availa-
ble when the engine is running. For hybrid
vehicles, the cooling with air dehumidification
function is also available via the electric
refrigerant compressor when the engine is
not running. The air inside the vehicle is
cooled and dehumidified according to the
temperature selected.
Condensation may drip from the underside of
the vehicle when cooling mode is active. This
is normal and not a sign that there is a mal-
function.
