Note
The exhaust air streams out through vents at the rear of the luggage com-
■
partment.
We recommend that you do not smoke in the vehicle when the recirculating
■
air mode is operating since the smoke which is drawn at the evaporator from
the interior of the vehicle forms deposits in the evaporator of the air condition-
ing system. This produces a permanent odour when the air conditioning sys-
tem is operating which can only be eliminated through considerable effort and
expense (replacement of compressor).

Using the air conditioning system economically

Read and observe and
The air conditioning system compressor uses power from the engine when in
cooling mode, which will affect the fuel consumption.
It recommended to open the windows or the doors of a vehicle for which the
interior has been strongly heated through the effect of direct sunlight in order
to allow the heated air to escape.
The cooling system should not be switched on if the windows are open.
For the sake of the environment
Pollutant emissions are also lower when fuel is being saved
