Economical use of the climate control
system
A ppl ies to vehicles: w it h Deluxe au toma tic clima te co n­

Economical use of the climate control system
helps save fuel.
When the climate contro l system is working in
coo ling mode, engine performance is reduced
and fuel consumption is affected. To keep the
time the cl imate control system is on as short
as possible, you should do the follow ing:
.. To save fuel, turn off cooling mode by press­
ing the AC button (indicator light goes out) .
.. In add ition, if you open the window or the
panoramic sliding/tilt ing sunroof* while
dr iv ing, turn off cooling mode by pressing
the AC button (indicator light goes out) .
.. If the vehicle is extremely hot due to the
heat of the sun, briefly open doors and win ­
dows.
@ For the sake of the environment
When you save fuel, you reduce em ission s
from the vehicle.

Automatic recirculation
App lies to vehicles : with Del uxe a uto mat ic clima te con­
tro l pl us
An air quality sensor detects increased con­
centrations of pollutants in the outside air
and automatically switches to recirculation
mode.
We recommend that you always keep auto­
matic recirculation ON to prevent polluted
outside air from entering the vehicle interior.
If the
air quality sensor located in the climate
control system detects polluted outside air,
the sensor dec ides whether the air pollut io n
can be reduced by the factory-installed pollu­
tant filter or w hether it is necessary to switc h
to recirculation. With heavy concentr ations of
po llutants, the climate control system is
switched automatica lly to recirc ulation mode
and the supply of o utside air is blocked . As
soon as the concentration of pollutants in the
outside air drops, fresh air is supplied to the
vehicle interior aga in .
In the event that the windows fog up during
automatic recircu lation, press the~ button
immediately .
Under certain operating conditions, automatic
recirculation is switched off automatically.
When outside temperatures are below about
SO °F (+10 °C), automatic recirculat ion is lim­
ited to 30 seconds. When outside tempera­
tures are be low about 30 °F (-1 °C), automatic
recirculation is lim ited to 15 seconds .

area because the rear lid cannot be fully
closed.
-If you absolutely must drive with the rear
lid open, observe the following notes to
reduce the risk of poisoning:
- Close all windows,
- Close the panoramic tilting sunroof*,
- Open all air outlets in the instrument
panel,
- Switch off the air recirculation,
- Set the fresh air fan to the highest
speed.
A WARNING
Always make sure that the doors, all win­
dows, the panoramic tilting sunroof* and
the rear lid are securely closed and locked
to reduce the risk of injury when the vehi­
cle is not being used.
-After closing the rear lid, always make sure that it is properly closed and locked.
- Never leave your vehicle unattended es­
pecially with the rear lid left open. A
child could crawl into the vehicle through
the luggage compartment and close the
rear lid becoming trapped and unable to
get out. Being trapped in a vehicle can
lead to serious personal injury.
- Never let children play in or around the
vehicle.
- Never let passengers ride in the luggage
compartment. Vehicle occupants must
always be properly restrained in one of
the vehicle's seating positions.
(D Tips
- Air circulation helps to reduce window
fogging. Stale air escapes to the outside
through vents in the trim panel. Be sure
to keep these slots free and open.
- The tire pressure must correspond to the load. The tire pressure is shown on the
tire pressure label. On USA vehicles, the
tire pressure label is located on the driv­
er's side B-pillar. On Canada vehicles, the
tire pressure label is located either on
the driver's side B-pillar or inside the fuel

filler flap. The tire pressure label lists
the recommended cold tire inflation
pressures for the vehicle at its maximum
capacity weight and the tires that were
on your vehicle at the time it was manu­
factured . For recommended tire pres­
sures for normal load conditions, please
see chapter
~page 256.
Tie-downs
The luggage compartment is equipped with
four tie-downs to secure luggage and other
items.
Use the tie -downs to secure your cargo prop­
erly ~
page 150, Loading the luggage com­
partment .
In a collision, the laws of physics mean that
even smaller items that are loose in the vehi­
cle will become heavy missiles that can cause
serious injury. Items in the vehicle possess en­
ergy which vary with vehicle speed and the
weight of the item. Vehicle speed is the most
significant factor.
For example, in a frontal collision at a speed
of 30 mph (48 km/h), the forces acting on a
10-lb (4.S kg) object are about 20 times the
normal weight of the item. This means that
the weight of the item would suddenly be
about 200 lbs. (90 kg). You can imagine the
injuries that a 200 lbs. (90 kg) item flying
freely through the passenger compartment
could cause in a collision like this.
A WARNING
Weak, damaged or improper straps used
to secure items to tie-downs can fail dur­
ing hard braking or in a collision and cause
serious personal injury.
- Always use suitable mounting straps and
properly secure items to the tie-downs in
the luggage compartment to help pre­
vent items from shifting or flying for­
ward as dangerous missiles.
- When the rear seat backrest is folded
down, always use suitable mounting
straps and properly secure items to the
