Turning off 560SL Climate Control when top is off

Hi
I've read my owners manual but still not for sure how to operate the "Climate Control" when the hardtop is off and the softtop is down.

When I'm driving with the top down I can still feel the air conditioner blowing cool air or if I roll the thermastat to warm I feel heat.

I figure no need to run the air or heat if the top is off.

I've hesitated to ask because I know its probably pretty simple to disengage them.

I've owned this 1986 560SL with 44,000 miles for about 9 months and its a fantastic MB that looks and drives like new.

Any comments would be appreciated.

Or you can press the "Ec" button which turns off the ac and the fan will just blow the outside air in without cooling. It will heat up the air if required though. If that bothers you just set your temp to min and it will never blow heat.
.
Press "O" and the fan will shut off.
