Important safety notes

WARNING

The air coming out of the vents can be very hot or very cold. Close to the vents, you risk burns or frostbite if you do not protect yourself. Avoid positioning yourself too close to the vents. If necessary, adjust the airflow so that it is directed at another part of the cabin.

To ensure fresh air enters the cabin through the vents, observe the following notes:

  • Make sure the air intake grilles between the bonnet and the windscreen are always free of debris, such as ice, snow or leaves.
  • Make sure the air vents and the ventilation grille are never obstructed.
You can move the selectors built into the air vents up, down, right or left to adjust the direction of the airflow. For optimal climate control, fully open the air vents and set the selectors to the centre position.
