Ventilated front seats*
The ventilation system consists of fans in the
seats and backrests that draw air through the
seat upholstery. The cooling effect increases
the cooler the passenger compartment air
becomes.
The ventilation is controlled from the ECC
which takes into account the seat tempera-
ture, solar radiation and outside temperature.
The ventilation can be used at the same time
as seat heating. For example, the function
can be used to dry damp from clothing.
The ventilation system can be activated
when the engine is running. There are three
comfort levels that produce different cooling
and dehumidification outputs:
• Comfort level three: press the button once
for maximum output – three lamps illumi-
nate.
• Comfort level two: press the button twice
for a lower output – two lamps illuminate.
• Comfort level one: press the button three
times for the lowest output – one lamp
illuminates.
Press the button four times to switch off the
function – no lamps illuminate.
Fan
Turn the knob to increase or
decrease fan speed. If
AUTO is selected then fan
speed is regulated auto-
matically. The previously
set fan speed is disen-
gaged.

NOTE
The seat ventilation should be used careful-
ly by people sensitive to draughts. Comfort
level one is recommended for long-term
use.
IMPORTANT
The seat ventilation cannot be started when
passenger compartment temperature is
less than 5 C. This is to avoid chilling any-
one sitting in the seat.
NOTE
If the fan is fully disengaged the air condi-
tioning is not engaged.
