Temperature
Turn the wheel to set the desired
temperature.
The automatic climate control reaches this tem‐
perature as quickly as possible, if necessary by
increasing the cooling or heating output, and
then keeps it constant.
Avoid rapidly switching between different tem‐
perature settings. The automatic climate control
will not have sufficient time to adjust the set
temperature.

Air flows out of the vents for the upper body re‐
gion. Open them for this purpose.
The air is cooled fastest when the engine is run‐
ning.
The air flow can be adjusted when the program
is active.
AUTO program
Press the button.
Air flow, air distribution, and tempera‐
ture are controlled automatically.
Depending on the selected temperature, AUTO
intensity, and outside influences, the air is di‐
rected to the windshield, side windows, upper
body, and into the footwell.
The cooling function, refer to page 124, is
switched on automatically with the AUTO pro‐
gram.
At the same time, a condensation sensor con‐
trols the program so as to prevent window con‐
densation as much as possible.
To switch off the program: press the button
again or manually adjust the air distribution.
Intensity of the AUTO program
With the AUTO program switched on, automatic
control of the air flow and air distribution can be
adjusted.
Press the left or right side of the button:
decrease or increase the intensity.
The selected intensity is shown on the display
of the automatic climate control.
