The heating, air -conditioning system and
the automatic climate control regulate the
temperature and humidity in the vehicle
interior. They also filter undesirable sub -
stances out of the air.
The heating, air-conditioning system and
automatic climate control can only be
operated when the engine is running. They
only function optimallywhen the side win-
dows are closed.

Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period
during warm weather. This will speed up
the cooling process and the desired
interior temperature will be reached
more quickly.

The integrated filter can filter out
most particles of dust and as well as pol -
len. With automatic climate control,
odours carried in the air are also
reduced. A clogged filter reduces the
amount of air suppl ied to the vehicle
interior. For t his reason, you should
al ways observe the interval for replac-
ing the fi lter, which is specified in the
Service Booklet. As it depends on envi-
ronmental conditions, e.g. heavy air
pollution, the i nterval may be shorter
than stated in the Service Booklet.
