When pressing the corresponding keys, heated or unheated fresh air comes out of all nozzles (mode "ECON") or chilled air (mode "AUTO").
Nozzles are controlled by keys 1, 13, 14 (see fig. Climate Controls "Climatronic").
Additionally, nozzles 3 and 4 can be opened or closed individually:
Nozzle closed: side dial on .
Nozzle open: side dial on .
When turning the common deflector grille nozzles 3 and 4, the air flow changes its direction in height.
If you turn the dial in the deflector grille, the direction of the air flow in the horizontal plane changes.
Rear nozzles for air supply to the leg area are regulated together with nozzles 5.
General instructions
It should be ensured that the sensor located between the air supply nozzles to the windshield in the middle of the front panel and the deflector grille are not covered by anything.
In order to install "Climatronic" function, the air intake in front of the windshield must be free of ice, snow or leaves.
The heating capacity of the system depends on the coolant temperature of the engine cooling system, so the greatest heating occurs when the engine is warmed up to operating temperature.
If the mode "AUTO" has not been turned on for a long time, an unpleasant odor may appear due to the accumulation of various kinds of deposits on the evaporator.
To avoid unpleasant odours, switch on the air conditioner at the highest fan setting – also during the cold season – at least once a month. At the same time, open one of the windows for a short time.
Used air is expelled through outlets under the rear window. When placing items of clothing on the luggage compartment shelf, make sure that these openings are not blocked.
At high temperatures and high humidity outside air, condensation may drip from the evaporator and form a puddle under the vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate a leak in the system.
