HEATING AND VENTILATIONThese are the primary functions of the heating and ventilation system. Dependent upon specification, the control panel may differ from those shown.

Control panel

Air conditioningAir conditioning is an integral part of the heating and ventilation system, providing cooled and dehumidified air for occupant comfort. The dry airflow is effective in preventing misting of windows and is also beneficial at low external temperatures.

Air conditioning is automatically switched on and controlled whenever the system is not operating in economy mode.

External water depositsThe air conditioning system removes moisture from the air and deposits excess water beneath the vehicle. Puddles may form, but this is normal and no cause for concern.

AUTO mode Press AUTO to select automatic operation of the system, both LEDs in the switch will illuminate.

The system will adjust the heat output, blower speed, air intake and airflow distribution to maintain the selected temperature(s) and reduce misting without further adjustments.

The air distribution and blower controls can be operated to override the automatic settings. This will extinguish the appropriate LED in the AUTO control.

Recommended modeSelect AUTO as the normal operating mode. This will help prevent window misting and eliminate odours from the climate control system.

Temperature selection Rotate the controls 1 to adjust the temperature for the respective side of the passenger compartment.
