- Dust and Pollen Filter (with or without Activated Charcoal Filter Element)
- Follow the replacement intervals. Refer to Maintenance Tables.
- There are different versions depending on the vehicle version and equipment level.
-- Oh vehicles with the "Basis" A/C system without activated charcoal filter element
-- Oh vehicles with the "Convenience" A/C system with an activated charcoal filter element There is an Air Quality Sensor -G238- installed on these vehicles. Refer to DUST AND POLLEN FILTER WITH ACTIVATED CHARCOAL INSERT, ELEMENT INFORMATION .
- Removing and installing. Refer to DUST AND POLLEN FILTER, REMOVING AND INSTALLING
.NOTE:
In MY 2012, vehicles with a "Convenience" A/C system will have a modified dust and pollen filter with an activated charcoal filter element installed as a running change. This filter with an improved interception rate for fine particulates has approximately the same air resistance values as the filter installed prior to the change, and for this reason will be in installed in vehicles built up to the change.
If the customer requests it, it is permitted the exchange a dust and pollen filter without an activated charcoal filter element that came with the vehicle from the manufacturer for a dust and pollen filter with an activated charcoal filter element so long as the vehicle has the "Basis" A/C system.
- Right Front Upper Body Vent Temperature Sensor -G386-
- Removing and installing. Refer to Right Front Upper Body Vent Temperature Sensor -G386-, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
- Installed only in the "Convenience" A/C system.
- Right Condensation Water Drain (Front Passenger Side)
- Removing and Installing. Refer to CONDENSATION WATER DRAIN, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
- Checking. Refer to CONDENSATION WATER DRAIN, CHECKING .

- The seat heating and seat ventilation are not installed in all vehicles (optional equipment).
- The Climatronic Control Module -J255- A/C display and control head adjusts the seat heating and seat ventilation. The activation of the seat heating and seat ventilation is displayed in the measured values block of the Climatronic Control Module -J255- A/C display and control head. To check, using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in the "Guided Fault Finding" function.
- Different control modules activate the seat heating and the seat ventilation, depending on the vehicle equipment and version. Refer to the appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAM and using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in the "Guided Fault Finding " function. (for the Vehicle Electrical System Control Module -J519-, the Memory Seat/Steering Column Adjustment Control Module -J136- and the Front Passenger Memory Seat Control Module - J521-, depending on the vehicle).
- Seating heating and ventilation, servicing. Refer to SEAT VENTILATION CONTROL MODULE AND SEAT HEATING, REMOVING AND INSTALLING and OVERVIEW - SEAT HEATING ELEMENT .
- For information about seat heating and ventilation function. Refer to FRONT SEAT HEATING AND VENTILATION
.NOTE:
If there is a condition, where the heating or ventilation of the driver or passenger seat cannot be switched on, this will be stored as a malfunction in the Vehicle Electrical System Control Module -J519-, in the Memory Seat/Steering Column Adjustment Control Module -J136- or in Front Passenger Memory Seat Control Module -J521- (depending on the vehicle version and the vehicle equipment level). Currently no information is sent to the Climatronic Control Module -J255- A/C display and control head on this vehicle via the Data Bus system; the DTC memory must be read out in each control unit or in the Comfort System Central Control Module -J393-, using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in the "Guided Fault Finding " function. In the event of a complaint regarding seat heating or seat ventilation, first check the DTC memory of the control modules activating the seat heating and seat ventilation.
The setting for the seat heating and ventilation is adjusted on the Climatronic Control Module -J255- A/C display and control head; this adjustment is transmitted to the Vehicle Electrical System Control Module -J519- via the Data Bus. The target temperatures for the different seat heating and seat ventilation settings are stored in the Vehicle Electrical System Control Module -J519-. Depending on the version of the Vehicle Electrical System Control Module -J519- and on the vehicle date of manufacture, the specified temperature for the seat heating and ventilation can be different with the same setting on the Climatronic Control Module -J255- A/C display and control head, using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in the "Guided Fault Finding " function (for the Vehicle Electrical System Control Module -J519-).
