General n n otes
•
When the outside temperature is low the
fan will not switch itself on until the coolant
has reached the right temperature, unless
the fan is manually switched on
•
The air inlet in front of the windscreen
should be kept free of ice, snow and dead
leaves to avoid hindrance to the heating
or cooling systems.
•
In automatic gear box versions, the
kick-down mechanism briefly switches off
the air conditioning compressor when
moving down a gear, so the engine can
keep up full capacity.
•
If the coolant overheats the compressor
switches itself off when the engine is
under a great effort, to guarantee perfect
engine cooling.
•
At low outside temperatures (below
+5 °C) the refrigeration group (compres-
sor) is automatically switched off, and
cannot be switched on manually
•
With the compressor on both the inside
temperature and humidity of the car are
reduced. This stops the windows from
steaming up.

HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
•
Best results are obtained from the
Climatronic with the windows and sun
roof* closed.
However if the inside of the car is over-
heated, e.g. because it has been in the
sun, the cooling process can be speeded
up by briefly opening the windows.
•
When it is very hot or humid outside,
water may condense on the evaporator
and drip down to form a puddle under the
car. This is perfectly normal and does not
mean there is a leak.
•
The dust and pollen filter separates
impurities from the air (e.g. dust, pollen
etc.). If the air is polluted by gases the air
recirculation mode should be connected.
•
The dust and pollen filter elements
should be changed in accordance with
the Maintenance and Inspection Plan, to
prevent a loss in the air conditioning
capacity.
