Temperature
Concept
The automatic climate control achieves the
set temperature as quickly as possible, if
necessary by using the maximum cooling or
heating power, and then keeps it constant.
Adjusting
Turn the wheel to set the de-
sired temperature.
Do not rapidly switch between different
temperature settings. The automatic climate
control will not have sufficient time to ad-
just the set temperature.
