Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A motor vehicle comprising:
 an air conditioning unit having a condensate drain;   at least one water reservoir for a water using unit having a supply line to the water using unit;   wherein the water reservoir is filled with condensate of the air conditioning unit.   
     
     
         2 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 1 , wherein the condensate drain of the air conditioning unit is connected to the water reservoir by a tube. 
     
     
         3 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 2 , wherein the water reservoir is positioned in a lower level as the condensate drain of air conditioning uni. 
     
     
         4 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 1 , wherein the water reservoir is positioned near a heat source. 
     
     
         5 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 1 , wherein an overflow is arranged on the water reservoir to avoid back up of condensate in the air conditioning unit. 
     
     
         6 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 1 , wherein a filling opening for manual filling is arranged on the water reservoir. 
     
     
         7 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 1 , wherein a small auxiliary container is arranged below the air conditioning unit, which is connected with a higher located water reservoir, and wherein a pump moves the condensate from the auxiliary container to the water reservoir. 
     
     
         8 . The motor vehicle according to  claim 1 , wherein the water using unit is a water injection unit.
