Switching the climate control on/off
General notes When the climate control is switched off, the
air supply and air circulation are also
switched off. The windows could mist up.
Therefore, only switch off climate control
briefly.
Switch on climate control primarily using theà rocker switch (Y page 142).

fication on/off
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,
deactivate the "Cooling with air dehumidifi-
cation" function only briefly.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" func-
tion is only available when the engine is run-
ning. The air inside the vehicle is cooled and
dehumidified according to the temperature
selected.
Condensation may drip from the underside of the vehicle when cooling mode is active. Thisis normal and not a sign that there is a mal-
function.

X Consult 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,
deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehumidifi-
cation" function only briefly. Setting climate control to automatic

on/off
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 activate air-recirculation mode, the win-
dows can mist up more quickly, in particular
at low temperatures. Only use air-recircula-
tion mode briefly to prevent the windows
misting up.

General notes Once the engine is switched off, it is possible
to make use of the residual heat of the engine to continue heating or ventilating the front
compartment of the vehicle for approximately
30 minutes.
The heating or ventilation time depends on
the temperature that has been set. Activating/deactivating X

WARNING
If children open the perfume vial, they could
drink the perfume or it could come into con-
tact with their eyes. There is a risk of injury. Do not leave children unsupervised in the vehicle.
If the perfume liquid has been drunk, consult
a doctor. If perfume comes into contact with
your eyes or skin, rinse the eyes with clean
water. If you continue to experience difficul-
ties, consult a doctor. H

Possible causes/consequences and
M
MSolutions The vehicle interior is
not perfumed although
the perfume atomiser
has been activated. The perfume vial has not been pushed into the holder as far as it
will go.
X Slide the perfume vial into the holder as far as it will go. The perfume vial is not filled sufficiently.
X Pre-filled vials: dispose of the empty vial.
X Use a new pre-filled vial.
X Refillable vials: refill the vial with a maximum of 15 ml of the
same perfume. The perfume atomiser is faulty.
X Have the perfume atomiser checked at a qualified specialist
workshop. Ionisation
You can use the ionisation function to purify
the air in the vehicle interior and attain an
improved interior climate.
The ionisation of the interior air is odourless
and cannot, directly, be perceived in the vehi-
cle interior.
You can switch ionisation on or off using
COMAND Online (see the separate operating instructions).
Ionisation can only be switched on if the front
automatic climate control is activated. The
side air vent on the driver's side must be
open. Auxiliary heating
Important safety notes G
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. Operating the climate control system
149Climate control
Z

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.
The auxiliary heating and the exhaust gas out-
let are situated behind the right-hand front
wheel.
! Operating the auxiliary heating/ventila-
tion draws on the vehicle battery. After you
have heated or ventilated the vehicle a
maximum of two times, drive for a longer
distance.
Switch the auxiliary heating on regularly once
a month for about ten minutes.
The auxiliary heating heats the air in the vehi-
cle interior to the set temperature. This
occurs without using the heat of the running
engine. The auxiliary heating is operated
directly using the vehicle's fuel. For this rea-
son, the tank content must be at least at
reserve fuel level to ensure that the auxiliary
heating functions.
The auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation
automatically adjusts to changes in temper-
ature and weather conditions. For this rea-
son, the auxiliary heating could switch from
ventilation mode to heating mode or from
heating mode to ventilation mode.
The auxiliary heating switches off when the
engine is switched off. The auxiliary ventila-
tion switches off when you turn the key to key position 2(Y page 161).
The auxiliary heating switches off automati-
cally after 50 minutes. This time limit can be
altered. To do this, visit a qualified specialist
workshop.
You cannot use the auxiliary ventilation to
cool the vehicle interior to a temperature
lower than the outside temperature. Before switching on X
Turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock (Y page 161).
X Set the desired temperature using the
w rocker switch on the front control
panel or using COMAND Online (see the
separate operating instructions).
If you do not alter the temperature before
switching on the auxiliary heating or auxiliary
ventilation, the last temperature setting will
be adopted.
Auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation can
also be switched on if the manually set cli-
mate control is activated. Optimum comfort
can be attained when the system is set to
automatic mode. Set the temperature to
22 †.
You can switch the auxiliary heating or auxil-
iary ventilation on or off:
R using the rocker switch on the centre con-
sole (Y page 150)
R using the remote control (Y page 151)
The on-board computer can be used to spec-
ify up to three departure times, one of which
may be preselected:
