wiping to fast continuous wiping after a while.
® -Wash/wipe. The screen is given an extra wipe
a few seconds later to remove any dribbles of wa­
ter (if the vehicle is moving and the temperature
is above approx. 4 °C). You can deactivate this
function by moving the lever to position® again
within 10 seconds after the extra wipe. The extra­
wipe function is activated again the next time you
switch on the ignition.
Headlight washers*. The headlight washer sys­
tem* only operates when the lights are switched
on. The headlights are automatically washed the
first time and every fifth time you move the lever

.&_ WARNING
- The rain sensor* is only intended to assist
the driver. The driver is still obliged to man­
ually operate the windscreen wipers as re­
quired depending on visibility.
- Do not use water-repellent coatings on the
windscreen. In bad visibility conditions such
as light rain, low sun or when driving at
night these coatings can cause increased
dazzle, which is a serious safety hazard.
Such coatings can also cause the wiper
blades to judder.
- Poor visibility can cause accidents. Always
ensure that the wiper blades are in good
condition ¢ page 44, Changing the wind­
screen wiper blades. Lights
and vision
CD CAUTION
- In icy conditions, check that the wiper
blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If
the wiper blades are frozen to the wind­
screen when you switch on the windscreen
wipers, this could damage the wiper blades.
- Make sure you switch off the windscreen
wiper system (lever in position 0) before you
use an automatic car wash. This will avoid
inadvertent triggering of the wipers and
possible damage to the wiper system.
(1)) Note
- The windscreen wipers are deactivated when
the ignition is switched off. You can activate
the windscreen wipers after switching the
ignition on again by moving the windscreen
wiper lever to any position.
- Worn or dirty wiper blades can cause smear­
ing on the glass. This can also impair the ef­
fectiveness of the rain sensor*. Please check
the wiper blades regularly.
- The windscreen washer jets are heated*
when the ignition is switched on if the out­
side temperature is low.
- If you stop briefly, e.g. at traffic lights, the
wiper speed setting will automatically be re­
duced by one level.
Cleaning windscreen wiper blades
Clean the wiper blades if the wipers leave smear­
ing on the glass. Clean the wiper blades using a
soft cloth and a glass cleaning solution.

Air conditioner
Description
The air conditioner heats, cools and dehumidifies
the air inside the vehicle. It operates most effec­
tively with the windows closed. If the vehicle has
been standing in the sun, it may cool down faster
if you open the windows briefly to let the hot air
escape.
The pollution filter removes impurities, such as
dust and pollen, from the air.
@ For the sake of the environment
If you wish to save fuel, switch off the cooling
mode on the air conditioner by pressing the
Controls for manual air conditioner

The rotary controls and switches are used to con­
trol the functions. The LED in the corresponding
button lights up when the function is switched

For a comfortable climate inside the vehicle:

a few degrees below the outside temperature
- Do not turn the blower up too high

also reduce emissions.
ijJ} Note
- Keep the air intake slots in front of the
windscreen clear of snow, ice and leaves to
ensure unimpaired heating and cooling, and
to prevent the windows misting over.
- Condensation can drip off the air cooling
system and form a pool underneath the ve­
hicle. This is normal and does not indicate a
leak.
- If you notice, for instance, that the seat* or
rear window heating is not working, it may
have been temporarily switched off by the
power management function. These sys­
tems will be available again as soon as suffi­
cient electrical power is available.

We recommend pressing the !AUTO! button and
setting the temperature to 22 °C (72 °F). The air
conditioner is fully automatic, and will maintain
the desired temperature at a constant level. The
temperature of the air supplied to the interior,
the blower speed and the air distribution are
regulated automatically. When the heater is on,
the blower normally only switches to a higher
speed once the coolant has warmed up suff icient­
ly (this does not apply to the defrost setting).

General notes
Running in
A new vehicle should be run in over a distance of
1,500 km. For the first 1,000 km the engine
speed should not exceed 2/3 of the maximum
per missible engine speed -do not use full throt­
tle. From 1,000 to 1,500 km you can gradually
increase the engine rpm and road speed.
During its first few hours of running, the internal
friction in the engine is greater than later on
when all the moving parts have bedded down.
How the vehicle is driven for the first 1,500 km
also influences the engine quality. After this peri­
od you should continue driving at moderate en­
gine speeds, in particular when the engine is
cold. This helps to reduce wear and tear on the
engine and increases the potential mileage which
can be covered by the engine.
You should also avoid driving with the engine
speed too Low. Change down to a lower gear
when the engine no longer runs "smoothly". Ex­
cessively high engine speeds are prevented by an
automatic rev limiter.
Driving through water on roads
Please note the following in order to prevent
damage to the vehicle when driving through wa­
ter (e.g. on flooded roads):
- The water level must not be higher than the ve­
hicle's underbody.
- Do not drive faster than walking pace.
A WARNING
After driving through water, mud, sludge,
etc., the braking effect can be delayed slightly
due to moisture on the discs and brake pads.
Applying the brakes carefully several times
will remove the moisture and restore the full
braking effect.
58 CD
CAUTION
Parts of the vehicle (e.g. engine, gearbox, run­
ning gear or electrical components) can be
badly damaged when driving through water.
ij} Note
- It is advisable to check the depth at the
deepest point before approaching the wa-
ter.
- Do NOT stop the vehicle, drive in reverse or
switch off the engine before you are out of
the water.
- Bear in mind that waves created by oncom­
ing traffic could exceed the permissible
wading depth of your vehicle.
- Avoid driving through salt water (corrosion).
How to improve economy and minimise
pollution
Fuel econom y, environmental impact and wear
on the engine, brakes and tyres depend largely
on the way you drive the vehicle. By adopting an
economical driving style and anticipating the
traffic situation ahead, you can reduce fuel con­
sumption by 10-15%. The following section gives
you some tips on lessening the impact on the en­
vironment and reducing your operating costs at
the same time.
Anticipate well in advance
A car uses most fuel when accelerating. If you an­
ticipate hazards and speed changes well in ad­
vance, you will need to brake less and thus accel­
erate less. Wherever possible, let the car slow
down gradually with a gear engaged, for in­
stance when you can see that the next traffic
lights are red.
Change gear early to save fuel
An effective way of saving fuel is to change up
quickly through the gears. Running the engine at
high rpm in the lower gears uses an unnecessary
amount offuel. Press the accelerator slowly and
avoid using the "kick-down" feature.
