Notes on using 3-zone automatic climate control
The following contains instructions and recommendations to enable you to get the most out of your automatic climate control.
• Activate climate control using the
and
buttons. The indicator lamps in the
and
buttons light up.
• In automatic mode, you can also use the
button to set a climate mode
(FOCUS/MEDIUM/DIFFUSE). The MEDIUM level is recommended.
• Set the temperature to 72 °F (22 °C).
• Only use the "defrosting" function briefly until the windshield is clear
again.
• Only use "air-recirculation" mode briefly, e.g. if there are unpleasant
outside odors or when in a tunnel. The windows could otherwise fog up as, in
air-recirculation mode, no fresh air is drawn into the vehicle.
• Use the ZONE function to adopt the temperature settings on the driver's side
for the front-passenger side and the rear compartment as well. The indicator
lamp in the 
button goes out.
• Use the residual heat function if you want to heat or ventilate the vehicle
interior when the ignition is switched off. The "residual heat" function can
only be activated or deactivated with the ignition switched off.
