Pollution filter
The pollution filter (a combined particulate
filter and active carbon filter) serves as a bar-
rier against impurities in the outside air, in-
cluding dust and pollen.
For the climate control system to work with
maximum efficiency, the pollution filter must
be replaced at the specified intervals in the
Maintenance Programme.
If the filter loses efficiency prematurely due to
use in areas reaching very high pollution lev-
els, the pollen filter must be changed more
frequently than stated in the Service Sched-
ule.
WARNING
Reduced visibility through the windows in-
creases the risk of serious accidents.
Always ensure that all windows are free
●
of ice and snow, and that they are not fog-
ged, so as to maintain good visibility of ev-
erything outside.
The maximum heat output required to de-
●
frost windows as quickly as possible is only
available when the engine has reached its
normal running temperature. Only drive
when you have good visibility.
Always ensure that you use the heating
●
system, fresh air system, air conditioner
and the heated rear window to maintain
good visibility to the outside.
Never leave the air recirculation on for a
●
long period of time. If the cooling system is
switched off and air recirculation mode
switched on, the windows can mist over
very quickly, considerably limiting visibility.
Switch air recirculation mode off when it
●
is not required.
WARNING
Stuffy or used air will increase fatigue and
reduce driver concentration possibly re-
sulting in a serious accident.
Never leave the fresh air fan turned off or
●
use the air recirculation for long periods of
time; the air in the vehicle interior will not
be refreshed.
CAUTION
If you suspect that the air conditioner is
●
damaged, switch it off with the
