that nobody can become trapped when clos-
ing the side windows.
Problem: a side window cannot be closed because objects are trapped between the

Sliding sunroof
Important safety notes
!
Only open the sliding sunroof if it is free of
snow and ice. Otherwise, malfunctions may
occur.
Do not allow anything to protrude from the sliding sunroof. Otherwise, the seals could
be damaged.
!If the sliding sunroof still cannot be
opened or closed as a result of a malfunc-
tion, contact a qualified specialist work-shop.
!The weather can change abruptly. It could
start to rain or snow. Make sure that the
sliding sunroof is closed when you leave the
vehicle. The vehicle electronics can be
damaged if water enters the vehicle inte-rior.
iResonance noises can occur in addition to
the usual airflow noises when the sliding
sunroof is open. They are caused by minor
pressure fluctuations in the vehicle interior.
Change the position of the sliding sunroof
or open a side window slightly to reduce or
eliminate these noises.

iThis Operator's Manual describes all
models and all standard and optional equip- ment of your vehicle available at the time of
publication of the Operator's Manual.
Country-specific differences are possible.
Please note that your vehicle may not be
equipped with all features described. This
also applies to safety-related systems and
functions.

Overview of climate control systems
Important safety notes
Observe the settings recommended on the
following pages. The windows could other-
wise fog up. This could prevent you from
observing the traffic conditions, thereby
causing an accident.
Climate control regulates the temperature
and the humidity in the vehicle interior and
filters undesirable substances from the air.
Dual-zone automatic climate control is only
operational when the engine is running. Opti-
mum operation is only achieved if you drive
with the side windows and sliding sunroofclosed.
The climatic comfort deteriorates whilst the
sliding sunroof is open. The automatic climate control cannot maintain the set temperature
with the sliding sunroof open. You have to
adjust the climate control manually.
iVentilate the vehicle for a brief period
during warm weather, e.g. using the con-
venience opening feature ( Ypage 77). This
will speed up the cooling process and the
desired vehicle interior temperature will be
reached more quickly.
iThe integrated filter can filter out most
particles of dust, and completely filters out
pollen. A clogged filter reduces the amount of air supplied to the vehicle interior. For
this reason, you should always observe the
interval for replacing the filter, which is
specified in the Maintenance Booklet. As it
depends on environmental conditions, e.g. heavy air pollution, the interval may be
shorter than stated in the Maintenance
Booklet.

!Make sure that the automatic transmis-
sion is in position Nwhen washing your
vehicle in a tow-through car wash. The vehi-
cle could be damaged if the transmission is
in another position.
!Make sure that:
R the side windows and sliding sunroof are
closed completely.
R the blower for the ventilation/heating is
switched off (airflow control is turned toposition 0/the à andÁ buttons
are switched off).
R the windshield wiper switch is at position0.
The vehicle could otherwise be damaged.
You can wash the vehicle in an automatic car wash from the very start.
If the vehicle is very dirty, pre-wash it before
cleaning it in an automatic car wash.
After using an automatic car wash, wipe off
wax from the windshield and the wiper
blades. This will prevent smears and reduce
wiping noises caused by residue on the wind-shield.
