| | Temperature Selection (° C)
b — S
fPf
The desired temperature can be adjusted by
turning the temperature selector. The selected
temperature is reached as quickly as possible and
maintained. A basic setting of 22° C (72° F) is recom­
mended. To avoid undesirable temperature fluctua­
tions, a set temperature should be readjusted in small
increments.
To override the automatic climate control turn the
temperature wheel to either extreme end position
"MIN" or "MAX".
"MIN" (detent) = peak cooling performance.
The system operates with recirculated air, without
additional fresh air.
"MAX" (detent) = maximum heating performance.
If button S is pressed with the temperature selector
in the "MIN" or "MAX" position, it will run con­
tinuously at a high speed.
Air Recirculation
E
Pressing the symbol-side of the air recirculation
switch causes air to be recirculated without addi­
tional fresh air and the red indicator lamp to light up.
After a while the air recirculation mode will switch off
automatically, including the indicator lamp.
The air recirculation mode can be used with high or
low outside temperatures, or to prevent dust or an­
noying odors from entering the car's interior. If the
windows should fog up from the inside, the air recir­
culation switch should be turned off. The red indica­
tor lamp should then go out.
Note:
The air recirculation mode will not come on if but­
ton ® is pressed.
Function Setting
<§) Off
In this setting, the fresh air supply to the interior of
the car is shut off, (to prevent entrance of odors, i.e.
while driving through tunnels, etc. or to prevent the
entrance of water from automatic car wash). Use this
setting only temporarily while driving.
