Charcoal filter
An activated charcoal filter markedly
reduces bad odors and removes pollutants
from air entering the passenger compart-
ment. The charcoal filter can be activated
or deactivated.
The system switches automatically to the
air recirculation mode, if the
ț charcoal filter is switched on.
ț carbon monoxide (CO) or nitrogen
oxide (NO
X
) concentration of the out-
side air increases beyond a predeter-
mined level.

button 2 or 9 not lit) mode is deactivat-
ed, or if the outside temperature has fallen
below 41°F (5°C).

The activated charcoal filter should be
switched off when windows fog up on the inside,
or if the passenger compartment needs to be
quickly heated or cooled down.
Warning! G
Never operate the side windows if there is
the possibility of anyone being harmed by
the closing procedure.
When using the charcoal filter with conve-
nience closing feature, should the upward
movement of a window be blocked by some
obstructions including but not limited to
arms, hands, fingers. etc., the automatic re-
versal feature will not operate.
In the event that the procedure causes po-
tential danger, the closing of the side win-
dows can be immediately halted by
releasing the e button or by pressing or
pulling the respective window switch.
i
If you press and hold button e, the side
windows will return to their previous position.
A side window will only return to its previous po-
sition if it has not been moved to another posi-
tion using the respective side window switch
after it was closed with button e. A side win-
dow that was moved will remain in its current po-
sition if button e is used to re-open the
remaining side windows.
