Air conditioning user instructions
The interior cooling system only works when
the engine is running and fan is switched on.
The air conditioner operates most effectively
with the windows and the electric sliding
panoramic roof closed. However, if the vehi-
cle has heated up after standing in the sun
for some time, the air inside can be cooled
more quickly by opening the windows and
the sliding electric panoramic sunroof briefly.
Setting for conditions of optimal visibility
When the air conditioning is switched on, the
temperature and the air humidity in the vehi-
cle interior drop. In this way, when the out-
side air humidity is high, the windows do not
mist over and comfort for the vehicle occu-
pants is improved.
