Automatic climate control
Tips for pleasant driving
Use the automatic system; switch on
AUTO-button 7. Select an interior tem-
perature that is comfortable for you
– we recommend 70
7
(22
6
) as a
comfortable setting. When the outside
temperature is above 40
7
(+ 5
6
), you
can also use the air conditioning system
(12). This system dries the air and pre-
vents condensation on the windows
(e.g. if persons are wearing damp cloth-
ing). Set the outlets (2) so that the air
flows past you and is not directed
straight at you. Set the rotary dial be-
tween the air outlets (2) for the upper
body to a medium position, since air
that is somewhat cooler promotes driv-
ing without fatigue.
Detailed setting options are described
for you in the following section.
You can make the settings of your
vehicle in such a manner that,
when you unlock the car with your per-
sonalized remote control, your own per-
sonalized setting of the automatic cli-
mate control is initiated.

Automatic air distribution
The AUTO program assumes
the adjustment of the air distri-
bution and the air supply for you and in
addition adapts the temperature to
external influences (summer, winter) to
meet preferences you can specify. This
program maintains a comfortable in-car
climate regardless of the season. Select
an interior temperature that is comfort-
able for you – we recommend 70
7
(22
6
). The temperature selected and
the word
AUTO for the air supply
appear in display (10) (refer to the over-
view on page
88
). Open the air outlets
for the upper body area. Switch on the
air conditioner in warm weather. The
maximum cooling capacity is achieved
when you set rotary dial (3) (refer to
page
92
) to cold.
Individual air distribution
You can cancel the AUTO pro-
gram by selecting specific distri-
bution patterns to suit your own
individual requirements. You
can direct air to flow onto the windows
, toward the upper body
, and into
the footwell
.
Temperature
The figures in the display provide
a general indication of interior
temperature. We recommend 70
7
(22
6
) as a comfortable setting, whether
the air conditioner is operating or not.
When you start the vehicle, the system
ensures that the selected temperature is
reached as quickly as possible. It then
maintains this temperature, regardless
of the season.
Set rotary dial 3 (refer to "Draft-free
ventilation" on page
92
) to a medium
setting, since air that is somewhat
cooler promotes driving without fatigue.
You can use this setting for mixing air to
make minor comfort modifications.
The full, uncontrolled heater out-
put is available starting at an inte-
rior temperature setting of 90
7
(32
6
).
At a setting of 60
7
(16
6
), the full cool-
ing output is available when the air con-
ditioner is activated.
