Knob A - temperature selection
Turn clockwise - increase heating.
Turn counterclockwise - decrease heating.
When the air conditioner is switched on, turning the knob counterclockwise increases the cooling capacity of the system.
Switch B - fan
The air supply is adjustable in four steps. At low speeds, always turn on the lower fan setting.
In position 0, the fan and air conditioner are switched off. If it is necessary to prevent the ingress of foul-smelling outside air into the passenger compartment, press the button E (recirculation mode).
On vehicles with a dust filter, in any position of switch B, the air is cleaned of dust, soot, plant pollen, etc.
Knob C - distribution of air supply to the nozzles
Regulator on the pictogram | Nozzles fully open | Nozzles slightly open |
1, 2 | 4 | |
5 | 1, 2, 4 | |
3, 4, 5 | 1, 2 | |

Key D - switching the air conditioner on and off
The setting can be turned on by pressing a key. The logo in the pressed key is lit "AC".
The unit is switched off by pressing the recessed button again. Logo "AC" stops glowing.
Key E - air recirculation
By pressing the key, the air recirculation mode is switched on. When turned on, the control lamp in the key starts to glow.
To turn off air recirculation, press the recessed button again. The control lamp stops glowing.
The operation of the unit in recirculation mode prevents unpleasant odors from entering the passenger compartment, for example, when driving through a tunnel or when driving in a traffic jam.
If you need to quickly increase or decrease the temperature in the passenger compartment, you can set the recirculation mode. In this mode, air is sucked in from the cabin, and then heated or cooled.
Warning: The air recirculation mode must, however, be switched on only for a short time, as in this mode no fresh air enters the passenger compartment and the windows may fog up when the air conditioner is switched off.
When the air conditioner is operating in recirculation mode, do not smoke in the passenger compartment, as the particles contained in tobacco smoke settle in the air conditioner evaporator. This leads to the fact that the air supplied to the cabin will have the smell of tobacco smoke for a long time, which can be eliminated with great difficulty, spending a significant amount of money to replace the evaporator.
For safety reasons, the recirculation mode is not possible when the C knob is in the following position .
In addition, the recirculation mode is disabled when you turn knob C from position "Air flow to the leg area" into position "Windshield deicing" all the way.
If the knob C is in the adjustment zone between the position shown in the figure and the position "Windshield deicing", recirculation mode is not possible.
The D and E keys can also be pressed.
