Information on the air-conditioning
system
Below, you can find a number of notes and rec-
ommendations to help you use the air-condi-
tioning system optimally.
RSwitch on the cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion function. The indicator lamp above the
rocker switch lights up.
RSet the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †). Only
change the temperature in small increments.
ROnly use the "Windshield defrosting" function
briefly until the windshield is clear again.
ROnly use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g. if
there are unpleasant outside odors or when in
a tunnel. The windows could otherwise fog up as no fresh air is drawn into the vehicle in air-
recirculation mode.
ROnly use reheat mode until the windows are
clear again.
Overview of climate control systems99

Vehicle with rear-compartment heating/
rear-compartment air conditioning
XTo switch on/off:press theiswitch.
If the indicator lamp in the button lights up,
the rear-compartment heating/rear-com-
partment air conditioning is switched on.
Switching the cooling with air dehu-
midification function on/off
Important information
If you switch off the "Cooling with air dehumid-
ification" function, the air inside the vehicle will
not be cooled (in warm weather) or dehumidi-
fied. The windows could fog up more quickly.
The cooling with air dehumidification function is
only available when the engine is running. The
air inside the vehicle is cooled and dehumidified
according to the temperature selected.
Condensation may appear on the underside of
the vehicle when in cooling mode. This is normal
and not a sign that there is a malfunction.
Switching on and off
Vehicle with air conditioning
XPress the ¿button.
If the indicator lamp in the button lights up,
cooling with air dehumidification is switched

iVehicles with additional air conditioning and
heating in the rear compartment: if you set
the temperature control to the center posi-
tion, only one of the two climate control sys-
tems works in the rear compartment and in
air-recirculation mode (
Ypage 104).

Window heating
Windshield heater
Windshield heater switch
The windshield heater consumes a lot of power.
You should therefore switch it off as soon as the
windshield is clear. The windshield heating oth-
erwise switches off automatically after
5 minutes.
XStart the engine.
XTo switch on/off: press thezswitch.
The indicator lamp in the zbutton comes
on when the windshield heating is switched
on.
If the indicator lamp in the zwindshield
heating button flashes, the on-board voltage is
too low. The windshield heating has switched off
prematurely or cannot be activated.
XSwitch off any consumers that are not
required, e.g. reading lamps or interior light-
ing.
If enough on-board voltage is available again
within 30 seconds, the windshield heating auto- matically switches on again. It otherwise
remains switched off.
Rear window defroster

Important safety notes
When you switch on air-recirculation mode, the windows could fog up more quickly, in particular
at low outside temperatures. Only switch on air-
recirculation mode for a short time.
You can deactivate the intake of fresh air if
unpleasant odors enter the vehicle from out-
side. The air inside the vehicle will only be cir-
culated.

Cruis econtro l
General notes
Cruise contro lmaintain sth espeed of th evehi-
cl e fo ryou.
Use cruise contro lif road and traffic condition s
mak eit appropriat eto maintain asteady speed
fo r a prolonged period. You can set any speed
from 20 mph upwards in increment sof 1mph .
iIf you hav eset km/h as th euni tfo rth edig-
ital speedometer (Ypage 170), you can set
any speed from 30 km/h upwards in incre-
ments of 1km/h.
Cruise contro lshould no tbe activated when
drivin goff-road or on construction sites.
Cruise contro lmay no tbe able to maintain th e
stored speed on uphill or downhill gradients. If
th egradient evens out and th evehicle' sspeed
doe sno tfall belo w20 mph (30 km/ h), the
stored speed is resumed.
iThe speed shown in the speedometer may
differ slightly from the speed stored by cruise
control.
Important safety notes
If you fail to adapt your driving style or if you are inattentive, cruise control can neither reduce
the risk of an accident nor override the laws of
physics. Cruise control cannot take road,
weather and traffic conditions into account.
Cruise control is only an aid. You are responsible
for the distance to the vehicle in front, for vehi-
cle speed, for braking in good time and for stay-
ing in lane.
Do not use cruise control:
Rin traffic conditions that are unsuitable for
driving at a constant speed, e.g. in heavy traf-
fic, on winding roads or off-road.
Ron slippery roads. Braking or accelerating
may cause the drive wheels to lose traction
and the vehicle could then skid.
Rwhen there is poor visibility, e.g. due to fog,
heavy rain or snow.
If there is a change of drivers, make sure that
you inform the new driver about the set cruise
speed.

Displaying the cruise control speed
Vehicles with steering wheel buttons: when
you activate cruise control, the text field in the
display briefly shows the speed

and the stored speed. The status area of the
display then shows the Vsymbol and the
stored speed.
Vehicles without steering wheel buttons:
when you activate cruise control, the display
briefly shows the Vsymbol and the stored
speed.
Activation conditions
To activate cruise control, all of the following
activation conditions must be fulfilled:
Rthe parking brake must be released. The c
indicator lamp in the instrument cluster is off
Ryou are driving faster than 20 mph (30 km/h)
Rneither the brake or clutch pedal is depressed
iOther drive and brake systems not descri-
bed in this Operator's Manual, such as a
retarder, may affect cruise control. You can
find information on this in the separate oper-
ating instructions provided by the body man-
ufacturer.

Driving and parking

Lane Keeping Assist does not keep your vehicle
in its lane.
The system may be impaired or may not function
if:
Rif the vehicle is incorrectly loaded
(Ypage 212)
Rthere is poor visibility, e.g. due to insufficient
illumination of the road, or due to snow, rain,
fog or spray
Rthere is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic, the
sun or reflection from other vehicles (e.g. if
the road surface is wet)
Rthe windshield is dirty, fogged up, damaged or
covered, for instance by a sticker, in the vicin-
ity of the camera
Rno, or several, unclear lane markings are pres-
ent for one lane, e.g. in a construction area
Rthe lane markings are worn away, dark or cov-
ered up, e.g. by dirt or snow
Rthe distance to the vehicle in front is too small
and the lane markings thus cannot be detec-
ted
Rthe lane markings change quickly, e.g. lanes
branch off, cross one another or merge
Rthe road is narrow and winding
Rthere are highly variable shade conditions on
the road
A warning may be given if a front wheel passes
over a lane marking. In addition, a warning tone
sounds and the Ãindicator lamp in the
instrument cluster flashes red.

A Lane Keeping Assist warning is suppressed if:
Ra driving safety system intervenes, such as
ABS, BAS or ESP®.
Ryou have set the turn signal and a lane change is detected. In this case, the warnings are
suppressed for a certain period of time.
Ryou accelerate hard, e.g. kickdown on vehi-
cles with an automatic transmission.
Ryou brake hard.
Ryou steer actively, e.g. swerve to avoid an
obstacle or change lane quickly.
Ryou cut the corner on a sharp bend.
In order that you are warned only when neces-
sary and in good time if you cross the lane mark-
ing, the system recognizes certain conditions
and warns you accordingly.
Lane Keeping Assist warns you earlier if:
Ryou approach the outer lane marking on a
bend.
Rthe road has very wide lanes, e.g. a freeway.
Rthe system recognizes solid lane markings.
Warnings are given later if:
Rthe road has narrow lanes.
Ryou cut the corner on a bend.
