Special considerations
When it is very hot and humid outside, water condensation can drip from the air conditioner
evaporator and form a puddle under the vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate a leak.
The climate control system adjusts the passenger compartment temperature as fast as possible
considering the outside temperature.
Due to residual moisture in the air conditioner, the windshield may fog up after the engine is
started. Switch on the windshield defroster to help evaporate the condensation as quickly as possible.
The air coming out of the vents flows through the passenger compartment and out through the
vents under the rear window. Do not cover these slots with clothing or other things.
Air vents

Air vents
To help ensure sufficient heating, cooling and ventilation in the passenger compartment, never close
the air vents completely ⇒ꢀfig. 110 (1).

Additional, non-adjustable air vents are located in the instrument panel (2), in the footwells, as well as
in the rear area of the passenger compartment.
NOTICE
Do not place food, medications, or other heat-sensitive things in front of the air vents. Food,
medications, and other things that are sensitive to heat or cold can be damaged or made
unusable by the air flow from the vents.
The air coming out of the vents flows through the passenger compartment and out through vents
under the rear window. Do not cover these slots with clothing or other things.
