WARNING
● For your safety, the windows should never be fogged up or covered
with snow or ice. This is essential to ensure good visibility. Please famili-
arise yourself with the correct operation of the heating and ventilation
system, including the demist/defrost functions for the windows.
● In air recirculation mode, no cold air from the outside enters the vehi-
cle interior. The windows can quickly fog over if the heating is switched
off. Therefore, never leave the air recirculation mode switched on for a
long time (risk of accident).
Note
● Please consider the general notes ⇒ p age 131.
