The rear automatic climate control cannot be operated if the front automatic climate control is switched off. With the defrost windows and eliminate condensation function activated, the rear automatic climate control is also not ready for operation.
AUTO program
The AUTO program automatically
sets the air distribution toward the
upper body and in the footwell, as
well as the air flow rate. It also
adapts your instructions for the
temperature to outside influences throughout
the year.
Temperature
Set the desired temperature
individually
on the left and right side.
The automatic climate control achieves this temperature as quickly as possible regardless of the season, using maximum cooling or heating power if necessary, and then maintains it.
When switching between different temperature settings in rapid succession, the automatic climate control does not have sufficient time to adjust the set temperature.
Air volume, manual
The air flow rate can be varied
by pressing
on the corresponding side. The automatic
mode for the air flow rate can be
switched on again using the AUTO button.
Switching off rear automatic climate control
With the blower at its lowest
setting,
press the left side of the button to
switch off the automatic climate control.
The automatic climate control can also be switched off with iDrive. To switch on the automatic climate control again, the system must first be reactivated, refer to Activating/deactivating.
The system is switched on again by pressing any button of the rear automatic climate control.
