Air conditioning

The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Climate Control (ECC). The climate control system cools, heats or dehumidifies the air in the passenger compartment.
NOTE
• The air conditioning can be switched
off, but to ensure the best possible climate
comfort in the passenger compartment
and to prevent the windows
from misting, it should always be on.
• In warm weather, a small amount of
water may accumulate under the car
when it has been parked. This water is
condensation from the A/C system and
is normal.
