Air Conditioning System - Opel Automobile Owner's Manual

104 Climate control
■ Open side air vents as required and
direct them towards door windows.
■ For simultaneous warming of the
foot well, set air distribution control
to J.
Note
If the settings for demisting and
defrosting are selected, an
Autostop will be inhibited.
If the settings for demisting and
defrosting are selected while the
engine is in an Autostop, the engine
will restart automatically.

Air conditioning system

In addition to the heating and
ventilation system, the air
conditioning system has:
= cooling
n
4 = air recirculation
Heated seats ß 3 38, Heated
steering wheel * 3 69.
Cooling n
Operated with the n button and is
functional only when the engine and
fan are running.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) as soon as the
outside temperature is slightly above
the freezing point. Therefore
condensation may form and drip from
under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch the cooling system off to save
fuel. When the cooling system is
switched off, no engine restart will be
requested by the climate control
system during an Autostop.
Note
If the climate control is set to
maximal cooling while the ambient
temperature is high, an Autostop
may be inhibited until the requested
temperature in the passenger
compartment has been reached.
If the climate control is set to
maximal cooling while the engine is
in an Autostop, the engine may
restart automatically.
Stop-start system 3 113.
Air recirculation system 4
The air recirculation mode is operated
with the 4 button.
9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air
humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up. The quality
of the passenger compartment air
deteriorates, which may cause the
vehicle occupants to feel drowsy.
