How to turn on the heating in a Smart

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Air conditioner

In this video, you will learn how to turn on the heating in your Smart. At minute 0:35, you can see the lever that selects the air temperature between 12 and 30 degrees Celsius. The lever on the left allows you to select the air speed between 0 and 4. In the centre, there are three buttons (the first to turn on the air conditioning, the second for the rear window heater, and the third for the internal air recirculation). Finally, below is the knob for the direction of the air: positioning it upwards directs the air to the windscreen, to the right directs it towards the passengers, and to the left directs it towards the feet. The knob also has intermediate positions between these settings.
