only achieved when you are driving with
the windows and sliding/tilting sunroof*
or panorama sliding/tilting sunroof*
closed.
You can allow the air-conditioning system
e
to adjust automatically ( page 164) or
you can adjust it manually.

Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period dur-
ing warm weather, e.g. using the summer open-
ing feature ( e page 107). This helps you to
achieve the desired interior temperature more
quickly.
In automatic mode, Thermotronic cools or
heats the vehicle interior according to:
I the selected temperature
I the outside temperature
I the intensity of sunlight
The integrated combination filter largely
filters out particles of dust and completely
filters out pollen.

The interval for replacing the filter depends
on environmental influences such as heavy air
pollution. The interval may be shorter than that
indicated in the Service Booklet. A clogged fil-
ter reduces the amount of air supplied to the
vehicle interior.

Risk of accident
Follow the settings recommended on the
following pages for heating or cooling. The
windows could otherwise mist up. This may
prevent you from observing the traffic condi-
tions, thereby causing an accident.
