R
Do not use a bulb that has been dropped or
that has scratches on its glass tube.
The bulb could explode.
R Only use bulbs in closed lamps which have
been designed for this purpose.
R Only use spare bulbs of the same type and
with the prescribed voltage
R Protect the bulbs from moisture when in
use.
If the new bulb still does not light up, consult a qualified specialist workshop.
R Have the LEDs and bulbs of the following
lamps changed at a qualified specialist
workshop:
- the additional turn signals in the exterior
mirrors
- the high-mounted brake lamp
- LED daytime running lamps (Bi-Xenon
headlamps)
- Bi-Xenon lamps (Bi-Xenon headlamps)
- front fog lamps
If you require assistance changing bulbs, con-
sult a qualified specialist workshop. Front bulbs

Below, you can find a number of notes and
recommendations to help you use the air-
conditioning system optimally.
R Switch on the cooling with air dehumidifi-
cation function. The indicator lamp above
the rocker switch lights up.
R Set the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †). Only
change the temperature in small incre-
ments.
R Only use the "Windshield defrosting" func-
tion briefly until the windshield is clear
again. R
Only use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g.
if there are unpleasant outside odors or
when in a tunnel. The windows could oth-
erwise fog up as no fresh air is drawn into
the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
R Only use the reheat function until the fog-
ged up windows are clear again. 114

Important information If you switch off the "Cooling with air dehu-
midification" function, the air inside the vehi- cle will not be cooled (in warm weather) or
dehumidified. The windows could fog up morequickly.
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 appear on the underside
of the vehicle when in cooling mode. This is
normal and not a sign that there is a malfunc- tion.

Windshield heater Windshield heater switch
The windshield heater consumes a lot of
power. You should therefore switch it off as
soon as the windshield is clear. The wind-
shield heating otherwise switches off auto-
matically after 5 minutes. X
Start the engine.
X To switch on/off: press the0085switch.
The indicator lamp in the 0085button
comes on when the windshield heating is
switched on.
If the indicator lamp in the 0085windshield
heating button flashes, the on-board voltage
is too low. The windshield heating has
switched off prematurely or cannot be acti-
vated.
X Switch off any consumers that are not
required, e.g. reading lamps or interior
lighting.
If enough on-board voltage is available again
within 30 seconds, the windshield heating
automatically switches on again. It otherwise
remains switched off.

The rear window defroster consumes a lot of
power. You should therefore switch it off as
soon as the window is clear. The rear window
heating otherwise only switches off automat- ically after 12 minutes.
X Start the engine.
X To switch on/off: press the0071switch.

If enough on-board voltage is available again
within 30 seconds, the rear window heating
automatically switches on again. It otherwise
remains switched off. Switching air-recirculation mode
on/off
Important safety notes When you switch on air-recirculation mode,
the windows could fog up more quickly, in
particular at low outside temperatures. Only
switch on air-recirculation mode for a short
time.
You can deactivate the intake of fresh air if
unpleasant odors enter the vehicle from out-
side. The air inside the vehicle will only be
circulated.
Heating/air-conditioning system Air-recirculation mode switches off automat-
ically after about 10 to 30 minutes, depending
on the outside temperature.
X Switch on climate control (Y page 116).
X To switch on/off: press the008Aswitch.
If the indicator lamp in the 008Abutton
lights up, air-recirculation mode is activa-
ted.
Rear-compartment heating/rear-com-
partment air conditioning On vehicles with a rear-compartment heating
and air-conditioning system, you can acti-
vate/deactivate air-recirculation mode for
the rear-compartment climate control.
X Switch on climate control (Y page 116).
X To activate: set the temperature control of
rear-compartment heating 0087(Ypage 115) or rear-compartment air conditioning sys-
tem
0044(Ypage 116) to the center position.
Only one of the two climate control sys-
tems in the rear compartment is activated
and is in air-recirculation mode.
X To deactivate: turn the temperature con-
trol of rear-compartment heating 0087
(Y page 115) or rear-compartment air-con-
ditioning system 0044(Ypage 116) clock-
wise or counterclockwise. Only change the
temperature in small increments. Adjusting the air vents
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.
The center and side air vents are adjustable.
On vehicles with a rear-compartment air-con-
ditioning system, you can also adjust the air
vents in the roof duct.
i For virtually draft-free ventilation, adjust
the sliders of the center air vents to the
center position.
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 grille on the hood free of
blockages, such as ice, snow or leaves.
R never cover the vents or the ventilation
grilles in the vehicle interior. 120

radar system only. Removal, tampering, or
altering of the device will void any warran-
ties, and is not permitted by the FCC. Do
not tamper with, alter, or use in any non-
approved way.
Any unauthorized modification to this
device could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
Monitoring range of the sensors
In particular, the detection of obstacles can
be impaired in the case of:
R dirt on the sensors or anything else cover-
ing the sensors
R poor visibility, e.g. due to fog, heavy rain or
snow
R narrow and short vehicles, e.g. motorcy-
cles or bicycles
R very wide lanes
R narrow lanes
R vehicles not driving in the middle of their
lane
R barriers or other road boundaries
Vehicles in the monitoring range are then not
indicated. Blind Spot Assist monitors the area approx-
imately 10 ft (3.0 m)behind your vehicle and
approximately 1.6 ft (0.5 m) to 11.5 ft (3.5 m) each side of it. For this purpose, Blind Spot
Assist uses radar sensors in the rear bumper and behind the protective strips of the B-pil-
lars.
If the lanes are narrow, vehicles driving in the
lane beyond the lane next to your vehicle may
be indicated, especially if the vehicles are not
driving in the middle of their lane. This may be the case if the vehicles are driving on the inner
side of their lane.
Due to the nature of the system:
R a clear warning situation may not occur.
The yellow indicator lamp on the relevant
side of the vehicle will then light up.
R warnings may be issued in error when driv-
ing close to crash barriers or similar solid
lane borders.
R warnings may be interrupted when driving
alongside particularly long vehicles, for
example trucks, for a prolonged time.
The four sensors of Blind Spot Assist are inte-
grated into the rear bumper and behind the
protective strips of the B-pillars. Make sure
that the bumper and protective stripping are
free of dirt, ice or slush in the vicinity of the
sensors. The radar sensors must not be cov-
ered, for example by cycle racks or overhang- ing loads.
Have the function of the radar sensors
checked at a qualified specialist workshop:
R after a severe impact
R after damage to the bumper
R after damage to the protective strips of the
B-pillars
Blind Spot Assist may otherwise not work
properly.
Indicator and warning display
Blind Spot Assist is not active at speeds below approximately 20 mph (30 km/h). Vehicles in the monitoring range are then not indicated. 164
