Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Very hot or very cold air can flow from the air vents. This could result in burns or frostbite in the immediate vicinity of the air vents. There
is a risk of injury.
Make sure that all vehicle occupants always
maintain a sufficient distance to the air out-
lets. If necessary, redirect the airflow to
another area of the vehicle interior. In order to ensure the direct flow of fresh air
through the air vents into the vehicle interior,
please observe the following notes:
R keep the air inlet between the windscreen and
the bonnet free of blockages, such as ice,
snow or leaves
R never cover the vents or ventilation grilles in
the vehicle interior
i Optimal climate control function is achieved
by opening the air vents fully and setting the
adjusters to the middle position. Air vents

!
Do not warm up the engine when the vehicle
is stationary. Drive off immediately. Avoid
high engine speeds and driving at full throttle
until the engine has reached its operating
temperature.
Only shift the automatic transmission to the
desired drive position when the vehicle is sta- tionary.
Where possible, avoid spinning the drive
wheels when pulling away on slippery roads.
You could otherwise damage the drive train.
! Mercedes-AMG vehicles:
avoid full-load
operation and engine speeds greater than
5000 rpm when the engine is cold. This will
help to protect the engine and maintain
smooth engine operation. Key positions
Key g
To remove the key
1 Power supply for some consumers, such as
the windscreen wipers
2 Ignition (power supply for all consumers)
and drive position
3 To start the vehicle
Vehicles with manual transmission: the
steering is locked when the key is taken out of
the ignition lock.
i If the key does not belong to the vehicle, it
can still be turned in the ignition lock. How-
ever, the ignition will not be switched on. The engine cannot be started. Start/Stop button General notes
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO are equipped with
keys featuring an integrated KEYLESS-GO func- tion and a detachable Start/Stop button.
A check that periodically establishes a radio
connection between the vehicle and the key
determines whether a valid key is in the vehicle.This occurs, for example, when the engine is
started.
When you insert the Start/Stop button in the
ignition lock, the system needs approximately
two seconds of recognition time. You can then
use the Start/Stop button.
Pressing the Start/Stop button several times in
succession corresponds to the different key
positions in the ignition lock. Pre-requisite for
this is that:
R you do not depress the brake pedal (vehicles
with automatic transmission)
R you do not depress the clutch pedal (vehicles
with manual transmission)
If you depress the brake pedal and press the
Start/Stop button, the engine starts immedi-
ately (vehicles with automatic transmission).
If you depress the clutch pedal and press the
Start/Stop button, the engine starts immedi-
ately (vehicles with manual transmission).
To start the vehicle without actively using the
key:
R the Start/Stop button must be inserted in the
ignition lock
R the key must be in the vehicle
R the vehicle must not be locked with the key or
KEYLESS-GO (Y page 80)
Do not keep the KEYLESS-GO key:
R with electronic devices, e.g. a mobile phone
or another key
R with metallic objects, e.g. coins or metal foil
R inside metallic objects, e.g. a metal case
This can affect the functionality of KEYLESS-GO.
If you lock the vehicle with the key's remote
control or with KEYLESS-GO, after a short time:
R you will no longer be able to switch on the
ignition with the Start/Stop button
R you will no longer be able to start the engine
with the Start/Stop button until the vehicle is
unlocked again 144

Auxiliary heating departure time

DANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or sufficient
ventilation is not possible, toxic exhaust
fumes can enter the vehicle, especially car-
bon monoxide. This is the case, e.g. in
enclosed spaces, or if the vehicle is stuck in
snow. There is a risk of fatal injuries.
You should switch off the auxiliary heating in
enclosed spaces which do not have an extrac- tion system, e.g. a garage. If the vehicle is
stuck in snow and you must leave the auxiliary
heating running, keep the exhaust pipe and
the area around the vehicle clear of snow. To guarantee a sufficient supply of fresh air, open
a window on the side of the vehicle away from the wind. G
WARNING
When the auxiliary heating is switched on,
parts of the vehicle can become very hot.
Flammable materials such as leaves, grass or twigs may ignite if they come into contact
with:
R hot parts of the exhaust system
R the exhaust gas itself
There is a risk of fire.
When the auxiliary heating is switched on,
make sure that:
R no flammable materials come into contact
with hot vehicle components
R the exhaust gas can escape from the
exhaust pipe unhindered
R the exhaust gas does not come into contact
with flammable materials.
! Operating the auxiliary heating/ventilation
draws on the vehicle battery. After you have
heated or ventilated the vehicle a maximum of two times, drive for a longer distance.
Only vehicles with auxiliary heating have this
function. In the
Heating Heating submenu, you can select a
stored departure time or change a departure
time.
The auxiliary heating timer function calculates
the switch-on time according to the outside
temperature so that the vehicle is preheated by the departure time. When the departure time isreached, the auxiliary heating continues to heat
for a further five minutes and then switches off. The auxiliary heating adopts the set air condi-
tioning or THERMOTRONIC temperature set-
ting.
You can switch off the auxiliary heating by using
the remote control or the auxiliary heating but-
ton on the centre console.
i Switch the auxiliary heating on regularly
once a month for about ten minutes.
