The temperature for the passenger (rear) and driver's (front)

compartment can be set independently of each other using this

equipment. The maximum difference in temperature can, however,

only be 3 °C.

Controls and equipment

With the h h e e a a t t i i n n g g o o n n , the interior is heated by two heat exchangers

in the front and rear, respectively, of the vehicle.

With the c c o o o o l l i i n n g g o o n n , the interior is cooled by means of one or two

refrigeration systems, depending on the version of Climatronic.

back, if the cooling is switched on you can set the temperature of

the rear seats to as much as 3 °C lower than in the front seats,

thanks to the vents in the ceiling.

temperature is regulated by means of the front seat temperature.
