Automatic climate control
At outside temperatures above 79°F
(26°C) the system will not automatically
switch back to outside air.
Air conditioning
The air conditioning (cooling) function is
operational when the engine is running and
cools the vehicle interior down to the se-
lected temperature. In addition, the cool-
ing function dehumidifies the air in the
vehicle interior, thus preventing the win-
dows from fogging up.

function of the automatic climate control
system. The air in the vehicle will then no
longer be cooled or dehumidified.
