Adjusting the air vents
G Risk of injury
Very hot or very cold air can flow from the
air vents. This could cause burns or frost-
bite to bare skin in the immediate vicinity
of the vents. Keep bare skin away from
these air outlets. If necessary, direct the
airflow away to a different area of the vehi-
cle interior.
Please observe the following notes to ensure
that the air can flow freely through the air
vents:
keep the air inlet between the windscreen
R
and the bonnet free of deposits, such as ice
and snow, to guarantee the supply of fresh
air into the vehicle interior.
never cover the vents or air inlet and outlet
R
grilles in the vehicle interior.
i
Position the sliders for the centre air
vents in the central position to provide vir-
tually draught-free ventilation.
