Air conditioning ON/OFF
Press the switch to turn the air conditioning on or off. The "ON" or "OFF" LED will light up to indicate
if the system is switched on or off. Other functions will still be regulated automatically (if the AUTO
switch is on).
The air conditioning functions only at temperatures above 32° F (0° C).
While the Defroster function is selected, the air conditioning is temporarily activated to dehumidify
the air, even if you have manually switched the air conditioning off. This will only function if the blower
is not switched off.
Blower control
Turn the control clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the blower speed. Pressing the
AUTO switch will automatically regulate blower speed and override manual adjustment.
NOTE: Turning the blower control counterclockwise as far as possible (an orange LED next to the
control will light up) will turn both the blower and the air conditioning off.
pg. 47 Electronic Climate Control (ECC) with Interior Air Quality system (option)
Interior Air Quality system (option)
Some cars are equipped with a Multifilter and Air quality sensor. The filter separates gases and particles,
thereby reducing the amounts of odors and contaminants entering the car. The Air quality sensor detects
increased levels of contaminants in the outside air. When the Air quality sensor detects contaminated
outside air, the air intake closes and the air inside the passenger compartment is recirculated, i.e. no
outside air enters the car. The filter also cleans recirculated passenger compartment air. When the Air
quality sensor is activated, the LED AUT comes on in
