Problems with the rear window defroster
ProblemPossible causes/consequences andPPSolutions
The rear windowdefroster has deactiva-ted prematurely or can-not be activated.
The battery has not been sufficiently charged.
XSwitch off any consumers that are not required, e.g. reading lamps,interior lighting or the seat heating.When the battery is sufficiently charged, the rear window defrostercan be activated again.
Switching air-recirculation mode
on/off
General notes
You can also temporarily deactivate the flow offresh air manually if unpleasant odors are enter-ing the vehicle from outside. The air alreadyinside the vehicle will then be recirculated.
If you switch on air-recirculation mode, the win-dows can fog up more quickly, in particular atlow temperatures. Only use air-recirculationmode briefly to prevent the windows from fog-ging up.
Activating/deactivating
XTurn the SmartKey to positionHin the igni-tion lock (Ypage 131).
XTo activate:press therrocker switch upor down.The indicator lamp above therrockerswitch lights up.
Air-recirculation mode switches on automati-cally:
Rat high outside temperatures
Rat high levels of pollution (3-zone automaticclimate control only)
Rin a tunnel (vehicles with a navigation systemonly)
The indicator lamp above therrockerswitch is not lit when automatic air-recirculationmode is activated. Outside air is added afterabout 30 minutes.
XTo deactivate:press therrocker switchup or down.The indicator lamp above therrockerswitch goes out.
Air-recirculation mode deactivates automati-cally:
Rafter approximately five minutes at outsidetemperatures below approximately 41 ‡(5 †)
Rafter approximately five minutes if coolingwith air dehumidification is deactivated
Rafter approximately 30 minutes at outsidetemperatures above approximately 41 ‡(5 †) if the "Cooling with dehumidification"function is activated
Switching the residual heat on or off
General notes
The residual heat function is only available with3-zone automatic climate control.
Once the engine is switched off, it is possible tomake use of the residual heat of the engine tocontinue heating or ventilating the front com-partment of the vehicle for approximately30 minutes. The heating or ventilation timedepends on the interior temperature that hasbeen set.
Activating/deactivating
XTurn the SmartKey to position

Traffic Sign Assist
General notes
Traffic Sign Assist displays the maximum speedpermitted to the driver in the instrument cluster.The data and general traffic regulations stored inthe navigation system are used to determine thecurrent speed limit.
Traffic Sign Assist is a map-based system, andfor this reason, traffic signs put up temporarily(e.g. near roadworks) are not detected. There isalso no display for changing traffic signs.
Traffic signs with a restriction indicated by anadditional sign (e.g. in wet conditions) are alsoshown.
The sign indicating the end of a restriction onlyappears with the restriction in the instrumentcluster when:
RThe regulation must be observed with therestriction, or
RTraffic Sign Assist is unable to determinewhether the restriction applies
If Traffic Sign Assist is unable to determine amaximum permitted speed from any of the avail-able sources, no speed limit appears in theinstrument cluster either.
Traffic Sign Assist is not available in all coun-tries. In this case, displayCappears in theassistance graphic (Ypage 219).
Important safety notes
Traffic Sign Assist is only an aid and is not alwaysable to correctly display speed limits. Trafficsigns always have priority over the Traffic SignAssist display.
The system may be either functionally impairedor temporarily unavailable if the information inthe digital street map of the navigation system isincorrect or out of date.
Instrument cluster display
Displaying the assistance graphic
XCall up the assistance graphic display func-tion using the on-board computer(Ypage 219).Detected traffic signs appear in the instru-ment cluster.

Warning/indicatorlamp
QQSignal type
Possible causes/consequences andPPSolutions
%QThe yellow ABS warning lamp is lit while the engine is running.
ABS (anti-lock braking system) is malfunctioning.
If there is an additional warning tone, the EBD (electronic brake force distribution)is malfunctioning.
Other driving systems and driving safety systems may also malfunction.
GWARNING
The brake system continues to function normally, but without the functions listedabove. The front and rear wheels could therefore lock if you brake hard, for exam-ple.
The steerability and braking characteristics may be severely affected. The brakingdistance in an emergency braking situation can increase.
If ESP®is not operational, ESP®is unable to stabilize the vehicle.
There is an increased risk of skidding and an accident.
XObserve the additional display messages in the multifunction display.
XDrive on carefully.
XVisit a qualified specialist workshop immediately.
If the ABS control unit is defective, there is also a possibility that other systems,such as the navigation system or the automatic transmission, will not be available.

General notes
The multimedia system section in this Opera-tor's Manual describes the basic principles foroperation. More information can be found in theDigital Operator's Manual.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the vehi-
cle when driving, you may be distracted from
the traffic situation. You could also lose con-
trol of the vehicle. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Only operate this equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that this
is possible, park the vehicle paying attention
to traffic conditions and operate the equip-
ment when the vehicle is stationary.
You must observe the legal requirements for thecountry in which you are currently driving whenoperating the multimedia system.
The multimedia system calculates the route tothe destination without taking the following intoaccount, for example:
Rtraffic lights
Rstop and yield signs
Rparking or stopping restrictions
Rroad narrowing
Rother road and traffic rules and regulations
The multimedia system may give incorrect nav-igation recommendations if the actual street/traffic situation does not correspond with thedigital map's data.
For example:
Ra diverted route
Rthe road layout or the direction of a one-waystreet has been changed
For this reason, you must always observe roadand traffic rules and regulations during yourjourney. Road and traffic rules and regulationsalways have priority over multimedia systemdriving recommendations.
Navigation announcements are intended todirect you while driving without diverting yourattention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of con-sulting the map display for directions. Lookingat the icons or map display can distract you fromtraffic conditions and driving, and increase therisk of an accident.
This equipment complies with FCC radiationexposure limits set forth for uncontrolled equip-ment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF)Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.
This equipment has very low levels of RF energythat is deemed to comply without maximumpermissive exposure evaluation (MPE). How-ever, it is recommended to install it at a distanceof at least 8 inches (approx. 20 cm) between theradiation source and a person's body (notincluding limbs such as hands, wrists, feet andlegs).
GWARNING
Modifications to electronic components, their
software as well as wiring can impair their
function and/or the function of other net-
worked components. In particular, systems
relevant to safety could also be affected. As a
result, these may no longer function as inten-
ded and/or jeopardize the operating safety of
the vehicle. There is an increased risk of an
accident and injury.
Never tamper with the wiring as well as elec-
tronic components or their software. You
should have all work to electrical and elec-
tronic equipment carried out at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Function restrictions
For safety reasons, some functions are restric-ted or unavailable while the vehicle is in motion.You will notice this, for example, because eitheryou will not be able to select certain menu itemsor a message will appear to this effect.

General notes
Among other things, correct functioning of thenavigation system depends on GPS reception. Incertain situations, GPS reception may beimpaired, there may be interference or theremay be no reception at all, e.g. in tunnels orparking garages.
