Heating and air conditioning system

Climatronic

Overview of the Climatronic

Climatronic is an automatic air conditioning system which warms, cools and dehumidiﬁes the air. In automatic mode, Climatronic can automatically control the air

temperature, air distribution and the volume of air.

The air conditioner is most effective when the vehicle interior is kept closed. If there is a build-up of heat inside the vehicle, ventilation can help to speed up the

cooling process.

Some functions of the air conditioner, as well as a climate control bar for the rear seats, depend on the vehicle equipment.

WARNING

Icy, snow-covered or foggy door windows restrict visibility very severely. This increases the risk of collisions and accidents, which may result in serious or fatal

injuries.

Keep all windows free of ice, snow and fog.

Adjust the heating, air conditioner, and rear window defroster to a setting where the windows do not fog up ⇒ Troubleshooting.

Only start driving when all windows are clear.
