Air conditioning
The air conditioning is operational while the
engine is running and cools the interior air to
the temperature set by the operator. In
addition, the air conditioning dehumidifies
the interior air and helps prevent window
fogging.
G Warning!
If you switch off the cooling function, the
vehicle will not be cooled when weather
conditions are warm. The windows can fog
up more quickly. Window fogging may
impair visibility and endanger you and
others.

Condensation may drip out from
underneath the vehicle. This is normal and
not an indication of a malfunction.
The cooling function can be activated or
deactivated via COMAND ( Y page 229).
