Note
- The climate control system automatically adjusts the air flow within the selected fan level based on requirements. This means that the fan speed may change even though the fan level is the same.

Synchronising temperature
The temperature in the car’s different climate zones is synchronised by default with the temperature set on the driver’s side, but it is possible to deactivate synchronisation and set the temperature separately for the various climate zones.
Deactivating temperature synchronisation
- Tap on the temperature button at the bottom centre of the centre display to open the control.
Tap on the synchronisation button between the temperature controls.
>The temperature can now be set separately for the various climate zones. The temperature set is now displayed separately in the climate row on the driver’s side and passenger side instead of just in the middle.
Synchronisation of the temperature can also be deactivated by changing the temperature on the passenger side.
Resetting synchronised temperature
- Press the driver’s side or passenger side temperature button at the bottom of the centre display in order to open the control.
Tap on the synchronisation button between the temperature controls.
>The temperature for all zones in the car is synchronised with the temperature set for the driver’s side.
Activating and deactivating ventilated front seat
The seats can be ventilated to provide increased comfort in a hot climate, for example.
The ventilation system consists of fans in the seats and backrests that draw air through the seat upholstery. The cooling effect increases the cooler the passenger compartment air becomes. The system can be activated when the engine is running.
Press the left or right-hand side’s steering wheel and seat button in the climate row in the centre display in order to open the controls for seat and steering wheel.
If the car is not equipped with heated seats or heated steering wheel (for the driver’s side), the button for ventilated seats is immediately available in the climate row.
Repeatedly press the button for ventilated seats in order to change between the three levels: High, Medium and Low.
>The level changes and the button shows the set level.
