Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system becomes active
when the driver's door is closed.
The system simultaneously engages and re‐
leases the locks on the following:
▷Doors.▷Trunk lid.▷Fuel filler flap.
Operating from the outside
▷Via the remote control.▷Via the door handles of the driver's and front
passenger doors.
The following takes place simultaneously when
locking/unlocking the vehicle via the remote
control:
▷Depending on how the vehicle is equipped,
the theft protection is activated/deactivated.
Theft protection prevents the doors from
being unlocked using the lock buttons or the
door opener.▷The welcome lamps, interior lamps and
courtesy lamps are switched on and off.▷The alarm system, refer to page 40, is
armed or disarmed.Seite 33Opening and closingControls33

Climate control functions in detail
Manual air distribution Turn the wheel to select the de‐
sired program or the desired in‐
termediate setting.▷ Windows.▷ Upper body region.▷ Windows, upper body region, and foot‐
well.▷ Footwell.
Defrosting windows and removing
condensation
Direct the air distribution toward windows, in‐
crease the air flow and temperature, and, if nec‐
essary, use the cooling function.
Rear window defroster Press the button.
The rear window defroster switches off
automatically after a certain period of time.
Air flow, manual Press the left or right side of the button:
decrease or increase air flow.
The air flow of the air conditioner may be re‐
duced automatically to save battery power.
AUTO program Press the button.
Air flow, air distribution, and tempera‐
ture are controlled automatically.
Depending on the selected temperature and
outside influences, the air is directed to the
windshield, side windows, upper body, and into
the footwell.
The cooling function, refer to page 138, is
switched on automatically with the AUTO pro‐
gram.
Temperature Turn the wheel to set the desired
temperature.
The automatic climate control reaches this tem‐
perature as quickly as possible, if necessary by
increasing the cooling or heating output, and
then keeps it constant.
Avoid rapidly switching between different tem‐
perature settings. The automatic climate control
will not have sufficient time to adjust the set
temperature.
Cooling function
The passenger compartment can only be
cooled with the engine running.
Press the button.
The air is cooled and dehumidified and,
depending on the temperature setting, warmed
again.
Depending on the weather, the windshield may
fog up briefly when the engine is started.
The cooling function is switched on automati‐
cally with the AUTO program.
When using the automatic climate control, con‐
densation water, refer to page 160, develops
that exits underneath the vehicle.
Recirculated-air mode
You can respond to unpleasant odors or pollu‐
tants in the immediate environment by tempo‐
rarily suspending the supply of outside air. The
system then recirculates the air currently within
the vehicle.
Press the button repeatedly to select
an operating mode:Seite 138ControlsClimate control138

AUTO program Press the button.
Air flow, air distribution, and tempera‐
ture are controlled automatically.
Depending on the selected temperature, AUTO
intensity, and outside influences, the air is di‐
rected to the windshield, side windows, upper
body, and into the footwell.
The cooling function, refer to page 140, is
switched on automatically with the AUTO pro‐
gram.
At the same time, a condensation sensor con‐
trols the program so as to prevent window con‐
densation as much as possible.Intensity of the AUTO program
With the AUTO program switched on, automatic
control of the air flow and air distribution can be
adjusted.
Press the left or right side of the button:
decrease or increase the intensity.
The selected intensity is shown on the display
of the automatic climate control.
Maximum cooling Press the button.
The system is set to the lowest tem‐
perature, maximum air flow and recirculated-air
mode.
Air flows out of the vents for the upper body re‐
gion. The vents need to be open for this.
The air is cooled fastest when the engine is run‐
ning.
The air flow can be adjusted when the program
is active.

Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
In external and recirculated air mode the micro‐
filter/activated charcoal filter filters dust, pollen,
and gaseous pollutants out of the air.
This filter should be replaced during scheduled
maintenance, refer to page 200, of your vehicle.

rection, such as if the vehicle interior is hot
from the sun.▷Draft-free ventilation:

Parked-car ventilation
The concept
The parked-car ventilation ventilates the vehicle
interior and lowers its temperature, if necessary.
The system can be switched on and off at any
external temperature, either directly or by using
two preset switch-on times. It remains switched
on for 30 minutes.
Open the vents to allow air to flow out.
Operation can be performed via iDrive.

The climate control is adjusted to be fuel-effi‐
cient.
By making a slight change to the set tempera‐
ture, or adjusting the rate of heating or cooling
of the passenger compartment fuel consump‐
tion can be economized.
The outputs of the seat heater and the exterior
mirror heating are also reduced.
The exterior mirror heating is made available
when outside temperatures are very cold.
ECO PRO potential
The percentage of potential savings that can be
achieved with the current configuration is dis‐
played.
Display in the instrument cluster

achieved by an adjusted driving
style.
This may be displayed as the bo‐
nus range in the instrument clus‐

The bonus range is shown in the range display.
The bonus range is automatically reset every
time the vehicle is refueled.Seite 166Driving tipsSaving fuel166
