How does the air conditioning work in the Mercedes B-Class?

Model: Mercedes Classe B W245, MK 1 - Years 2005-2011

The air conditioning system in the Mercedes B-Class model W245 features various functions not typically found in older Mercedes models. To turn on the air conditioning or heating, press the AC button located on the central dashboard. Once activated, you can set the temperature, airflow direction, and power using the various dials. A unique feature of this model is the presence of multiple fans: four at the front, two on each side, and one at the rear of the vehicle, located behind the handbrake. Like in all models, you can close the vents, but this model also allows you to do so at the rear.
