Ventilation
z For maximum ventilation in head area:
set air distribution switch to M and open
all vents.
z For ventilation to footwell: Set air
distribution switch to K.
z For simultaneous ventilation to the head
area and the footwell: set air distribution
switch to L.
z Set the temperature to the desired
setting.
z Switch fan on, adjust as required.
Heating
The amount of heat is dependent on the
coolant temperature and is thus not fully
attained until the engine is warm.
For rapid warming of the passenger
compartment:
z Set air distribution switch to desired
position, preferably position J, see
page 158.
z Turn the temperature switch clockwise as
far as it will go (warm).
z Set the fan to speed 3.
z Open air vents.
Vehicles with Quickheat
3: depending on
the outside temperature and the engine
temperature the passenger compartment
is heated up more quickly using an
auxiliary electric heater.
The auxiliary electric heater switches itself
on automatically.
The comfort and general well-being of the
vehicle occupants are to a large extent
dependent on a suitable ventilation and
heating setting.
To achieve a stratification of temperature
with the pleasant effect of "cool head and
warm feet", turn the rotary switch for air
distribution to K or J, set temperature
rotary switch to any position (in the mid-
range with stratification of temperature).
