Risk of accident
Clear all windows of ice or snow before setting
off. Otherwise, impaired visibility could
endanger you and others.
The rear window heating has ahigh current
draw. You should therefore switch it off as
soon as the window is clear, as it only
switches off automatically after several
minutes.
If the battery voltage is too low, the rear win-
dow heating may switch off.

required, e.g. reading lamps or interior

Activating/deactivating air-recircula-
tion mode
You can deactivate the flow of fresh air if
unpleasant odours are enteringthe vehicle
from outside. The air already inside the vehi-
cle will then be recirculated.
The operation of air-recirculation mode is the
same for all control panels.
G
Risk of accident
Only switch over to air-recirculation mode
briefly at low outside temperatures. Other-
wise, the windows could mist up, thus impair-
ing visibility and endangering yourself and
others. This may prevent you from observing
the traffic conditions, thereby causing an
accident.
