Keep theta ilpipe and the area around

WARNING Risk offire due tohot station‐
ary heater components
When thest ationary heater is swit ched on,
parts of theve hicle can become very hot, e.g.
th est ationary heater exhaust sy stem.
Flammable materials such as lea ves, grass or
twigs may ignite if they come into contact
wi th:
R hot parts of thest ationary heater exhaust
sy stem
R theex haust gas itself
There is a risk of fire. #
When thest ationary heater is swit ched
on, make sure that:
R Hot vehicle parts do not come into
contact with flammable materials.
R The exhaust gas can flow out of the
st ationary heater exhaust pipe
unhindered.
R The exhaust gas does not come into
contact with flammable materials. *

Au xilia ryheating works independently of the
engine and complements the climate cont rol sys‐
te m in theve hicle. Auxilia ryheating heats the air
inside theve hicle tothe set temp erature. Hot-water auxiliary heater
Fu
nction of the hot- water auxiliary hea ter
The hot-water auxiliary heater complements your
ve hicle's climate contro l system, and has a
heater boos ter,auxiliary heating and auxiliary
ve ntilation function. In addition, the auxiliary
heating sy stem heats the engine coolant topro‐
te ct the engine and sa vefuel during thewa rming-
up phase. The auxiliary heating heats the air
inside theve hicle tothe set temp erature. It is not
dependent on the heat output of theru nning
engine. The auxilia ryheating is operated directly
using theve hicle's fuel. Forth is reason, the fuel
ta nk must ha vebeen filled abo vethere ser vefuel
le ve l so that the auxiliary heating can work. The
auxilia ryheating automatically adapts its operat‐
ing mode tothe outside temp erature and
we ather. It is therefore possible that the auxiliary
heating may switch from ventilation toheating
mode or from heating toventilation mode. When
th e engine is running, auxilia ryventilation is not
acti ve.Au xilia ryheating automatically switches
itself off af ter a maximum of 50 minutes. Yo u
cannot use the "auxiliary ventilation" ope rating
mode tocool the air inside theve hicle tobelow
th e outside temp erature. Auxilia ryheating helps
to heat up theve hicle while the engine is running
and at low outside temp eratures.
Operating the hot-wa ter auxiliary heater draws
po we r from theve hicle batter y.Therefore, drive a
re asonably long dis tance af ter heating or ventilat‐
ing theve hicle twice in succession at most.
Au xilia ryheating can be activated only at temp er‐
atures below 40 °F (4.5 °C).

DEF consum ption and filling capacity
DEF consum ption
Like fuel consum ption, DEF consum ption is highly
dependent upon driving style and operating con‐
ditions. DEF consum ption is usually within a
ra nge of 0 and 10% of the fuel consum ption. If
necessar y,DEF mu stbe refilled in acco rdance
with the instructions when there fill message is
displa yed in the instrument clus ter.This may also
be necessary between the scheduled mainte‐
nance.

stgas af tertre atment
The exhaust gas af tertre atment sy stem must be
operated in conjunction with DEF if it is tofunc‐
tion cor rectl y.
If yo u operate theve hicle without DEF or with
emissions-rele vant malfunctions, the legal MOT
appr oval is in validated. You will then probably no
longer be permitted tooperate theve hicle on
public roads.
It may be improper or punishable in some coun‐
tries tooperate a vehicle that uses no DEF or one
th at does not comply with the specifications of
th ese operating instructions.
Engine management monitors theex haust gas
af te rtre atment components for compliance with
emissions la wsand regulations. If you attem ptto
operate theve hicle without DEF, with diluted DEF
or with a dif fere nt reducing agent, this will be
de tected bythe engine management sy stem.
Other emissions- releva nt malfunctions, e.g.
me tering malfunctions or sensor er rors, are also
de tected and log ged. The engine management sy
stem subsequently
pr eve nts the engine being restar ted af ter issuing
a wa rning message.
Therefore add DEF tank regular lyduring vehicle
