Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)

Description
The Climatronic system is an automatic heating, fresh air and cooling
system which provides optimal comfort for the occupants of the car.
The Climatronic maintains fully automatically a convenience temperature. This is
achieved by automatically varying the temperature of the outflowing air, the blower
stages and the air distribution. The system also takes into account sunlight which
eliminates the need to alter the settings manually. The automatic mode
 page 109 ensures maximum wellbeing of the occupants at all times of the year.

Move the air outlet vents 2 and 3 so that the air flow is directed slightly upwards.
Aeration of the vehicle when ignition is switched off
On models fitted with power sliding/tilting roof with sollar cells, the fresh air blower
is automatically switched over to "solar mode" if the sun ray's are sufficient after
switching off the ignition. The solar cells on the sliding/tilting roof deliver power for
the fresh air blower. This supplies the interior of the car with fresh air.
For an optimum ventilation, the air outlet vents 2 and 3 must be opened
 page 105, fig. 121.
The ventilation functions only when the sliding/tilting roof is closed.
Note

We recommend that you have Climatronic cleaned by a specialist garage once
every year.

On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted radio or radio navigation system, the
information of the Climatronic is also shown on the display. This function can be
switched off, see operating instructions of the radio or the radio navigation
system.
