Temperature
Concept
The automatic climate control achieves the set
temperature as quickly as possible, if necesj sary by using the maximum cooling or heatingpower, and then keeps it constant.
Settings Turn the ring to set the desired
temperature.
Do not rapidly switch between different temj perature settings. Otherwise, the automatic clijmate control will not have sufficient time to adj
just the set temperature.
Air
conditioning Concept
The air in the car's interior will be cooled and
dehumidified and, depending on the temperaj
ture setting, warmed again.
The car's interior can only be cooled with the
engine running.
Switching
on/off
Press button.
Air conditioning is switched on or off.
Depending on the weather, the windshield and
side windows may fog up briefly when the enj
gine is started.
The air conditioning is switched on automatij
cally with the AUTO program.
When using the automatic climate control,
condensation water, refer to page 208, develj
ops and drains underneath the vehicle. This is
normal.
AUTO
program
Concept
Air flow, air distribution and temperature are controlled automatically.
Switching
on/off Press button.
Depending on the selected temperaj
ture and outside influences, the air is directed to the windshield, side windows, upper body,and into the floor area.
The air conditioning, refer to page 181, is
switched on automatically with the AUTO proj gram.
Recirculated-air
mode Concept
You may react to unpleasant odors or polluj
tants in the immediate environment by tempoj rarily suspending the supply of outside air. The
system then recirculates the air flow within the
vehicle.
Operation Press button repeatedly to select an

of outside air into the vehicle is permaj
nently blocked.
To prevent window fogging, recirculated-air
mode switches off automatically after a certain amount of time, depending on the environj
mental conditions.
With constant recirculated-air mode, the air
quality in the car's interior deteriorates and the
fogging of the windows increases.
If the windows fog over, switch off recircuj
lated-air mode and increase the air flow, if
needed.

The selected intensity is shown on the display
of the automatic climate control.
Automatic
recirculated-air
control/
recirculated-air
mode
Concept
The automatic recirculated-air control AUC
recognizes odors or pollutants in the outside
air. The outside air supply is shut off and the
interior air is recirculated.
General
information
If the system is activated, a sensor detects polj
lutants in the outside air and controls the shut-
off automatically.
If the system is deactivated, outside air continj uously flows into the car's interior.
With constant recirculated-air mode, the air
quality in the car's interior deteriorates and the
fogging of the windows increases.

the vehicle battery. The system will be available again after the engine is started or
after a short trip.'yMake sure that the vehicle's date and time
are set correctly.'yOpen the vents to allow air to flow out.

features
and
optionsThis chapter describes all standard, country-specific and optional features offered with theseries. It also describes features that are notnecessarily available in your vehicle, e. g., due
to the selected options or country versions.
This also applies to safety-related functions
and systems. When using these functions and systems, the applicable laws and regulations
must be observed.
Universal
Integrated
Remote
Control
Concept
The integrated Universal Remote Control in
the interior mirror can operate up to 3 funcj
tions of remote-controlled systems, such as
garage door drives, barriers, or lighting sysj
tems. The Integrated Universal Remote Conj
trol replaces up to 3 different hand-held transj
mitters. To operate the remote control, the
buttons on the interior mirror must be proj
grammed with the desired functions. The
hand-held transmitter for the particular system
is required in order to program the remote conj
trol.
Before selling the vehicle, delete the stored
functions for the sake of security.
Safety
information WARNING
Body parts can be jammed when operatj
ing remote-controlled systems, for instance
the garage door, using the integrated Universal Remote Control. There is a risk of injury or risk
of damage to property. Make sure that the area of movement of the respective system is clear
during programming and operation. Also followthe safety instructions of the hand-held transj
mitter.'

proximately 20 seconds until the LED on
the interior mirror flashes. This erases all
programming of the buttons on the interior mirror.3.Hold the hand-held transmitter for the sysjtem to be controlled approx. 1 to 3 inj
ches/2.5 to 8 cm away from the buttons of
the interior mirror. The required distance
depends on the hand-held transmitter.4.Simultaneously press and hold the button
of the desired function on the hand-held transmitter and the button to be programj
med on the interior mirror. The LED on the
interior mirror will begin flashing slowly.5.Release both buttons as soon as the LED flashes more rapidly. The LED flashing
faster indicates that the button on the intej
rior mirror has been programmed.
If the LED does not flash faster after at
least 60 seconds, change the distance bej
tween the interior mirror and the hand-held transmitter and repeat the step. Several
more attempts at different distances may be necessary. Wait at least 15 seconds bej
tween attempts.
Canada: if programming with the hand- held transmitter was interrupted, hold
down the interior mirror button and repeatj
edly press and release the hand-held
transmitter button for 2 seconds.6.To program other functions on other butj
tons, repeat steps 3 to 5.
The systems can be controlled using the intej
rior mirror buttons.
Special
feature
of
the
rolling
code
wireless
system
If you are unable to operate the system after
repeated programming, please check if the system to be controlled features a rolling coderadio system.
Read the system's owner's manual, or press the programmed button on the interior mirror longer. If the LED on the interior mirror starts
flashing rapidly and then stays lit constantly for
2 seconds, the system features a rolling code
radio system. Flashing and continuous illumij
nation of the LED will repeat for approximately
20 seconds.
For systems with a rolling code radio system,
the integrated Universal Remote Control and the system also have to be synchronized.
Please read the owner's manual to find out
how to synchronize the system.
Synchronizing is easier with the aid of a secj
ond person.
Synchronizing the universal remote control with the system:1.Park the vehicle within range of the rejmote-controlled system.2.Program the desired button on the interiormirror as described.3.Locate and press the synchronizing button
on the system being programmed. You
have approx. 30 seconds for the next step.4.Hold down the programmed button on the
interior mirror for approximately 3 seconds
and then release it. If necessary, repeat this step up to three times in order to finish
synchronization. Once synchronization is
complete, the programmed function will be carried out.
Reprogramming
individual
buttons
1.Switch on the ignition.2.Press and hold the interior mirror button tobe programmed.3.As soon as the interior mirror LED starts
flashing slowly, hold the hand-held transj
mitter for the system to be controlled apj prox. 1 to 3 inches/2.5 to 8 cm away from
the buttons of the interior mirror. The rej
quired distance depends on the hand-held transmitter.Seite 190ControlsInterior
