Automatic climate control Below, you can find a number of notes and
recommendations to help you use climate
control optimally.
R Activate climate control using the Ã
rocker switch. The indicator lamp in the
à rocker switch lights up.
R Set the temperature to 22 †. R
Only use the windscreen demisting func-
tion briefly until the windscreen is clear
again.
R Only use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g.
if there are unpleasant outside odours or
when in a tunnel. The windows could oth-
erwise mist up as no fresh air is drawn into
the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
R Use the residual heat function if you want to
heat or ventilate the vehicle interior when
the ignition is switched off. The residual
heat function can only be activated or deac-
tivated with the ignition switched off. The 138

with air dehumidification function
General notes If you deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehu-
midification" function, the air inside the vehi-
cle will not be cooled. The air inside the vehi-
cle will also not be dehumidified. The win-
dows can mist up more quickly. Therefore,
only switch off cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion for a short period.
The cooling with air dehumidification function is only available when the engine is running.
The air inside the vehicle is cooled and dehu-midified according to the temperature selec-
ted.
Condensation may drip from the underside of
the vehicle when cooling mode is active. This is normal and not a sign that there is a mal-
function.

MSolutions Vehicles with auxili-
ary heating:
cooling
with air dehumidifica-
tion can no longer be
switched on using
COMAND Online (see
the separate operating
instructions).
Vehicles without aux- iliary heating: the indi-
cator lamp in the Á

Cooling with air dehu-
midification can also no longer be switched on
using COMAND Online
(see the separate oper-
ating instructions). Cooling with air dehumidification has been deactivated due to a
malfunction.
X Visit a qualified specialist workshop. Setting climate control to automatic
mode
General notes In automatic mode, the set temperature is
maintained automatically at a constant level. The system automatically regulates the tem-
perature of the dispensed air, the airflow and
the air distribution.
The automatic mode functions optimally
when the "Cooling with air dehumidification"
function is activated. If desired, cooling with
air dehumidification can be deactivated.
If you deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehu-
midification" function, the air inside the vehi-
cle will not be cooled. The air inside the vehi- cle will also not be dehumidified. The win-
dows can mist up more quickly. Therefore,
only switch off cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion for a short period. Setting climate control to automatic
mode X

Possible causes/consequences and
M
MSolutions The rear window heat-
ing has switched off
prematurely or cannot
be activated. The battery has not been sufficiently charged.
X Switch off any consumers that are not required, e.g. reading
lamps, interior lighting or the seat heating.

ing can be activated again. Activating/deactivating air-recircula-
tion mode
General notes You can also temporarily deactivate the flow
of fresh air manually if unpleasant odours are
entering the vehicle from outside. The air
already inside the vehicle will then be recir-
culated.
If you switch on air-recirculation mode, the
windows can mist up more quickly, in partic-
ular at low temperatures. Only use air-recir-
culation mode briefly to prevent the windows misting up.
