Ventilation
Setting
The air flow directions can be individually
adjusted:
– Direct ventilation:
The air flow is directly pointed onto the
person. The air flow heats or cools no-

If the air vents are fully or partly closed,
the air is directly routed into the car's
interior.
Front ventilation
– Turn knob for continuous opening and
closing of the air vents.

hicle battery will be discharged. Thus,
