control system, keep all windows
and the sliding roof closed.

ACC unit to work.

This is accomplished with the
temperature selector (7), the push
buttons, and the fan switch (8).
The air outlets (4), (5) and (6) can be
opened, closed or moved as desired.
The movable outlets (5) can be
opened and closed with levers (1)
and (3), and outlets (4) with lever (2).
Levers towards left = open.
Outlets (6) can be variably opened
and closed by turning of control
wheel. Wheel turned up = open.
To ensure efficient operation of the
automatic climate control system,
the air outlets (4), (5) and (6) must
be kept open.
For the rear passenger compart­
ment, a movable air outlet in the
console, which can be opened and
closed, supplies either non-heated,
fresh air or cooled air. Lever towards
left = open.
All push buttons and fan control
buttons should only be operated
individually. The indicator lamps in
the individual buttons light up when
pressed with the lighting switch in
position 1 or 2.
We strongly recommend settings
@ and ^ only, in connection with
the desired fan setting. The following
instructions explain the remaining
settings.
