Air supply

2 Blower off
3 Storage compartment
You can adjust the air supply for the air
outlets and the storage compartment
through an infinitely-variable range be-
tween the "0" and "Maximum" settings.
When set to "0" and "Storage compart-
ment," the fan is switched off and the
air supply through the air outlets is
blocked. The storage compartment is
ventilated in both settings as follows:
> "0" setting – warm air
> "Storage compartment" setting – cold
air
Individual adjustments on the front-seat
control elements influence the air supply
of the rear passenger area climate con-
trol.

Temperature
Passengers in the rear seating area can
adjust their own temperature for the ad-
jacent air outlets:
> Turn toward blue – colder
> Turn toward red – warmer
When you start the vehicle, the system
ensures that the selected temperature
is achieved as quickly as possible. It
then maintains this temperature, re-
gardless of the season.
A temperature adjustment is
only possible when the blower is
switched on – it is not possible when
set to "0" and "Storage compart-
ment."<
