Safety belts
Number of safety belts
The vehicle is fitted with five safety belts to en‐
sure occupant safety. However, they can only
offer protection when adjusted correctly.
The two outer safety belt buckles, integrated
into the rear seat, are for passengers sitting on
the left and right.
The center safety belt buckle of the rear seat is
solely intended for the person sitting in the
middle.
General information
Always make sure that safety belts are being
worn by all occupants before driving off.
For the occupants' safety the belt locking
mechanism triggers early. Slowly guide the
safety belt out of the holder when applying it.
If needed, disengage the safety belt in the rear
from the belt buckle on the side.
Although airbags enhance safety by providing
added protection, they are not a substitute for
safety belts.
Information
WARNING
If the safety belt is used by more than
one person, the protective effect of the safety
belt cannot be ensured anymore. There is risk
of injuries or danger to life. Do not allow more
than one person to wear a single safety belt. In‐
fants and children are not allowed in an occu‐
pant's lap, but must be transported and respec‐
tively secured in designated child restraint
systems.◀
WARNING
The protective effect of the safety belts
can be limited or lost when safety belts are fas‐
tened incorrectly. An incorrectly fastened safety
belt can cause additional injuries, for example
in the event of an accident or during braking
and evasive maneuvers. There is risk of injuries
or danger to life. Make sure that all occupants
are wearing safety belts correctly.◀
WARNING
With a rear backrest that is not locked,
the protective function of the middle safety belt
is not guaranteed. There is risk of injuries or
danger to life. If you are using the middle safety
belt, lock the wider rear backrest.◀
Correct use of safety belts
▷Wear the safety belt twist-free and as tight
to your body as possible over your lap and
shoulders.
▷Wear the safety belt deep on your hips over
your lap. The safety belt may not press on
your stomach.
▷Do not wear the safety belt on your throat,
rub it on sharp edges, guide it or jam it in
across hard or fragile objects.
▷Avoid thick clothing.▷Re-tighten the safety belt frequently up‐
ward around your upper body.

Ventilation
Setting
The air flow directions can be individually ad‐
justed:
▷Direct ventilation:
The air flow is directly pointed onto the per‐
son. The air flow heats or cools noticeably,
depending on the adjusted temperature.
▷Indirect ventilation:
If the vents are fully or partly closed, the air
is directly routed into the car's interior.
Front ventilation▷Turn knob for continuous opening and clos‐
ing of the vents.
▷Swivel the vents to alter the direction of the
vent flow, arrow.
Ventilation in the rear
▷Lever for changing the air flow direction,
arrow 1.
▷Thumbwheel for continuous opening and
closing of the vents, arrow 2.
Parked-car ventilation
The concept
The parked-car ventilation ventilates the vehi‐
cle interior and lowers its temperature, if
needed.
The system can be switched on and off at any
external temperature, either directly or by us‐
ing two preset reel-on times. It remains
switched on for 30 minutes.
Open the vents to allow air to flow out.

The Coasting driving condition is enabled under
certain conditions.
Under certain conditions the engine is auto‐
matically decoupled from the transmission in
selector lever position D. The vehicle continues
traveling with the engine idling to reduce fuel
consumption. Selector lever position D remains
engaged. An indicator provides information
about the distance traveled in Coasting mode.
In addition, context-sensitive instructions are
displayed to assist with an optimized fuel con‐
sumption driving style.
The achieved extended range is displayed in
the instrument cluster.
Overview
The system includes the following MINIMAL
functions and displays:
▷GREEN bonus range, refer to page 171.▷GREEN tips driving instruction, refer to
page 171.
▷GREEN climate control, refer to page 170.▷MINIMALISM analyzer, refer to page 173.▷Coasting driving condition, refer to

GREEN climate control
"GREEN climate control"
Climate control is set to be fuel-efficient.
By making a slight change to the set tempera‐
ture, or adjusting the rate of heating or cooling
of the car's interior fuel consumption can be
economized.
The outputs of the seat heater and the exterior
Additionally heat output to seats and exterior
mirror is reduced.
Exterior mirror heat is available when outside
temperatures are very low.
GREEN potential
The percentage of potential savings that can be
achieved with the current configuration is dis‐
played.
