Deluxe automatic air conditioner plusApplies to vehicles: with deluxe automatic air conditioner plusDescription
The air conditioner is designed to keep the passenger
compartment at the temperature you find most comfort-
able at all times of the year.The air conditioner provides heating and ventilation and also cools
and dehumidifies the air inside the vehicle.
The air conditioner is fully automatic, and will maintain the desired
temperature at a constant level. To achieve this, the temperature of
the air supplied to the interior, the blower speed (volume of air
delivery) and the air distribution are regulated automatically. The
system also allows for the effect of strong sunlight, so there is no
need for manual adjustment. For these reasons it is advisable to use
the automatic mode for the comfort of all the passengers in virtually
all conditions throughout the year ⇒page 101.
Please note:The humidity of the air is automatically reduced when the system
cools the interior of the vehicle. This helps to prevent condensation
on the windows.
If the humidity and temperature outside the vehicle are high,
condensation can drip off the evaporator in the air cooling system
and form a pool underneath the vehicle. This is normal and does not
indicate a leak.
If the outside temperature is low, the blower normally only switches
to a higher speed once the coolant has warmed up sufficiently (this
does not apply to the defrost setting).
In order to achieve maximum engine power, the air conditioner
compressor is temporarily switched off when pulling away from a
standstill with full throttle.
The compressor also switches off if the coolant temperature is
excessively high, to ensure adequate engine cooling under extreme
loads.
Pollution filter
The pollution filter (a combined particle filter and activated charcoal
filter) serves as a barrier against impurities in the outside air,
including dust and pollen, and against unpleasant smells. The air is
also filtered when the air recirculation mode is activated.
For the air conditioner to work with maximum efficiency, the pollu-
tion filter element must be replaced at the intervals specified in the
Service Schedule.
If the vehicle is driven in areas with a high level of air pollution and
the filter is no longer fully effective, it may be necessary to change
the filter element more frequently.
Key-coded settings
The currently selected air conditioner settings are automatically
stored and assigned to the remote control key.

Applies to vehicles: with deluxe automatic air conditioner plusAutomatic recirculation
If the outside air is polluted, an air purity sensor in the
vehicle will automatically switch on the air recirculation.To prevent fumes, etc. in the outside air from entering the interior,
we recommend that the automatic air recirculation should be
switched on at all times.
If the air purity sensor in the air conditioner system detects a certain
concentration of fumes in the outside air, the control unit will either
pass the incoming air through the pollution filter or automatically
switch on the air recirculation. If there is a high concentration of
pollution in the outside air, the air conditioner automatically
switches to air recirculation and cuts off the supply of air from the
outside. As soon as the level of pollution decreases, air is fed into
the vehicle from the outside again.
If the windows mist up when the automatic air recirculation is on,
press the
button immediately.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Heating and cooling 108The automatic air recirculation can switch itself off in certain condi-
tions. If the outside temperature is less than about +10 °C, the auto-
matic air recirculation will only operate for 30 seconds. If the air
conditioner is switched to the ECON mode, or if the outside temper-
ature is less than about -1 °C, the automatic air recirculation will
only operate for 15 seconds.Applies to vehicles: with deluxe automatic air conditioner plusSynchronisation
The air conditioner settings can be synchronised for all
passengers.When the synchronisation function is on, the driver's settings are
also applied to the front passenger or vice versa. Any subsequent
changes to the air conditioner settings (except for the seat heating*)
are also applied to the other occupant.
You can still change the setting on the “synchronised” side (this will
deactivate the synchronisation function).Auxiliary heating and auxiliary
ventilationApplies to vehicles: with auxiliary heating - under development at the time of printingDescription
The auxiliary heating and ventilation systems heat and
cool the interior independently of the engine.The auxiliary heating
works in conjunction with the air condi-
tioner system, but does not rely on heat from the engine. Instead of
this, the system burns fuel. The system's main function is to warm
up the interior of the vehicle and to defrost the windows in cold
weather.The auxiliary heating system can be used both when the vehicle is
stationary and when driving (to provide extra heat while the engine
is warming up).
The auxiliary ventilation
also operates independently of the
engine. This feature can be used to cool the interior with the blower
when the vehicle is left parked in the sun.
The system will automatically activate either the auxiliary heating or
the auxiliary ventilation mode, depending on the actual tempera-
ture measured inside the car and the temperature you have set with
the air conditioner controls. It is possible to alter the temperature
setting while the auxiliary heating/ventilation is running.
Switching on and off
There are two different ways of switching on the auxiliary
heating/ventilation system.
•
Immediate start: You can switch the auxiliary heating/ventilation
on and off at any time in the MMI Car menu ⇒page 109. You can
also switch the system on and off using the remote control
⇒page 111.
•
Switching on via timer: You can programme various start times
using the timers ⇒page 110. However you must first activate the
timer before the auxiliary heating/ventilation system will switch on
automatically.
The auxiliary heating/ventilation will switch itself off at the end of
the programmed running time. The running time can be set to 15,
30, 45 or 60 minutes ⇒page 111.
WARNING
•
The auxiliary heating must not be allowed to run when the
vehicle is in a confined space because it can give off toxic fumes.
•
To avoid any possible fire risk, never have the auxiliary heating
switched on when refuelling the vehicle.
•
Because of the high temperatures which occur when the auxil-
iary heating is running, make sure when parking the car that the

Changing the battery
– Push back and remove the battery cover on the remote
control ⇒page 111, fig. 128.
– Change the battery. The diagram in the battery compart-
ment shows how the battery should be fitted. The new
battery must be of the same type as the old battery.
– Re-fit the battery cover.When it is switched on, the auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation
starts immediately and remains on for the period set in the menu.
The maximum running time is 60 minutes.
If you want to switch the system on again after the end of the
programmed running time, press the button .
Transmitter indicator lamp
The transmitter indicator lamp will flash accordingly to show
whether the command you sent via the remote control was
successful.
When you switch the system on by pressing the button the
indicator lamp will flash green for about 30 seconds to confirm that
the heating/ ventilation has been switched on. When you switch the
system off by pressing the button the indicator lamp will
flash red to confirm that the heating/ ventilation has been switched
off.
If the remote control is outside the transmitting range the indicator
lamp will flash red slowly. If there is a fault in the system (e.g. fuel
level is down to reserve), the indicator lamp will flash red rapidly. In
both cases the command will not be executed.
When the remote control battery is almost completely flat, the
transmitter indicator lamp will not light up and no commands will
be executed.Transmitting range
The range of the remote control transmitter is about 600 metres.
However, this can be greatly reduced by obstacles (buildings, etc.)
between the remote control transmitter and the vehicle. Hold the
aerial upright when using the remote control.
You should not normally use the remote control at a distance of less
than 3 metres from the vehicle. If you are closer than this, or if you
use the remote control inside the vehicle, this can cause signal over-
load.
For the sake of the environment
Please dispose of old batteries in the proper manner so that they do
not harm the environment.Seat heatingApplies to vehicles: with front seat heatingSeat heating for front seats

– Hook the cap onto the open flap ⇒page 217, fig. 208.
Closing the tank cap
– Screw on the tank cap clockwise until it cannot be turned
further.
– Press the left side of the flap to close it (you should hear
it click into place).When the automatic filler nozzle is operated correctly it will switch
itself off as soon as the tank is “full”. Do not try to put in more fuel
after the nozzle cuts out, as this will fill the expansion chamber in
the fuel tank.
The correct fuel grade for your vehicle is given on a sticker on the
inside of the tank flap. Further notes on fuel ⇒page 217.
The tank capacity of your vehicle is given in the Te c h n i c a l d a t a
section ⇒page 279.
WARNING
Fuel is highly inflammable and can cause serious burns and other
injuries.•
For safety reasons always switch off the auxiliary heating*
before refuelling the vehicle.
•
For safety reasons we do not recommend carrying a spare fuel
canister in the vehicle. The canister could become damaged in an
accident and leak.
•
Observe all relevant statutory regulations on using, storing and
transporting spare fuel canisters.
•
When filling your tank or a spare fuel canister with fuel, do not
smoke and keep away from naked flames. Risk of explosion!
•
If, in exceptional circumstances, you have to carry a spare fuel
canister, please observe the following warnings:
−Never fill fuel into the spare fuel canister with the canister
placed in or on top of the vehicle. An electrostatic charge could build up during filling, causing the fuel vapour to ignite. Danger
of explosion. Always place the canister on the ground to fill it.
−Insert the filler nozzle as far as possible into the spare fuel
canister.
−If the spare fuel canister is made of metal, the filler nozzle
must be in contact with the canister during filling. This helps
prevent an electrostatic charge building up.
−Make sure you never spill fuel in the vehicle or in the luggage
compartment. Fuel vapour is explosive. Risk of fatal accident!
Caution
•
Remove any fuel spills from the paintwork immediately.
•
Never run the tank completely dry. If there is an irregular fuel
supply, misfiring can occur. As a result unburnt fuel can enter the
exhaust system and cause damage to the catalytic converter(s).For the sake of the environment
Do not try to put in more fuel after the automatic filler nozzle has
switched off; this may cause the fuel to overflow if it becomes
warm.
