Notes on 3-zone automatic climate control With the help of a sun sensor, the automatic climate control determines the relation of the sun to the vehicle and automatically adjusts the inside temperature for every individual zone. The automatic climate control is operational whenever the engine is running. It cools the vehicle's interior according to the angle and intensity of the sun's rays, the outside temperature and the selected temperature. You can operate the automatic climate control in either the automatic or manual mode. Nearly all dust particles, pollutants and odors are filtered out before outside air enters the passenger compartment through the air distribution system. i If the vehicle interior is hot, ventilate the interior before driving off, see "Summer opening feature" (Y page 107). The climate control will then adjust the interior temperature to the set value much faster. Deactivating the climate control system G Warning!
