116Climate controlCoolingThe air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) when outside
temperature is above a specific level.
Therefore condensation may form
and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required
press A/C OFF to switch the cooling
system off, thus saving fuel.
" A/C OFF " appears in the display.
Manual air recirculation mode Press u. LED illuminates and u
appears in the display.9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up. The quality
of the passenger compartment air
deteriorates, which may cause the vehicle occupants to feel drowsy.
To return to automatic mode: press
u or AUTO .
Rear heating system
If the engine is switched off, the rear
compartment can be heated by the
additional heating, through low level
vents.
By programming values using the
control panel, the user can adjust the
time, day and temperature settings.
Heating will cease to operate if the
vehicle fuel level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
Note
If the rear heating system is
activated while the engine is
running, an Autostop will be
inhibited.
To ensure efficient performance, the
low level air vents in the rear
passenger compartment must not be
obstructed.9 Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).

Combi
Additional air conditioning is supplied
to the rear passenger compartment
via the air vents located above the
driver and front passenger
compartment.
With the front passenger
compartment air conditioning system
switched on, adjust the air flow to
select the desired speed.
Ensure the air vents are open when in use, to prevent ice forming in the
system due to lack of air movement.
Auxiliary heater
Coolant heater The engine-independent, fuel-
powered coolant heater provides
rapid heating of the engine coolant to
enable heating of the vehicle interior
without the engine running.
Note
Depending on version, an additional
coolant heater may be switched on
automatically to speed up heating
when the ignition is on and the
outside temperature is below 5 ℃.9 Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).
Before starting or programming the
system to start, turn the vehicle's
climate control system to heat, set the
air distribution to V and turn the fan
on.
Switch off when not required. Heating stops automatically after the
programmed runtime. It will also
cease to operate if the vehicle fuel
level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. The driving
time should therefore be at least as
long as the heating time. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
To ensure efficient performance,
briefly operate the auxiliary heater
once a month.

Driving and operating133An Autostop is indicated when Ï
illuminates green in the instrument
cluster.
During an Autostop, the heating
performance, power steering and
brake performance will be
maintained. Brake assist, however, is
not available 3 151.
Note
If you exit the vehicle while the
engine is in an Autostop, a warning
chime will sound as a reminder that
the engine is on standby and has not been switched off.
Conditions for an Autostop
The stop-start system checks if each
of the following conditions is fulfilled,
otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited and control indicator \ will
illuminate in the instrument cluster.
● the stop-start system is not manually deactivated
● the bonnet is fully closed
● the driver's door is closed or the driver's seat belt is fastened
● the vehicle battery is sufficiently charged and in good condition● the engine is warmed up
● the engine coolant temperature is
not too high
● the ambient temperature is not too low
● the defrosting function is not activated
● the climate control system does not inhibit an Autostop
● the brake vacuum is sufficient ● the self-cleaning function of the diesel particle filter is not active
● the vehicle has moved since the last Autostop
Otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited.
An Autostop may become
unavailable as the ambient
temperature approaches freezing
point.
Certain settings of the climate control system may also inhibit an Autostop.See "Climate control" chapter for
further information 3 112.
Immediately after motorway driving
an Autostop may be inhibited.Autostop may also be inhibited
temporarily if the vehicle battery has
been recharged by an external
source.
New vehicle running-in 3 130.
Vehicle battery discharge protection
To ensure reliable engine restarts,
several vehicle battery discharge
protection features are implemented
as part of the stop-start system.
Restart of the engine by the driver
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the
engine.
If the selector lever has been shifted
out of neutral (manual transmission)
or N (manual transmission
automated) or other conditions are
not met, start using the ignition key.
The green control indicator Ï will
extinguish in the instrument cluster
when the engine is restarted.
If the selector lever is shifted out of
neutral (manual transmission) or N
(manual transmission automated) before depressing the clutch first, a
restart will not take place.

134Driving and operatingRestart of the engine by the stop-
start system
The selector lever must be in neutral(manual transmission) or N (manual
transmission automated) to enable an
automatic restart.
If one of the following conditions
occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will be restarted automatically
by the stop-start system. Control
indicator Ï will flash green in the
instrument cluster during an
automatic engine restart.
● the stop-start system is manually
deactivated
● the bonnet is opened
● the driver's seat belt is unfastened and the driver's door
is opened
● the engine temperature is too low
● the vehicle battery is discharged
● the brake vacuum is not sufficient
● the vehicle starts to move
● the defrosting function is activated● the climate control systemrequests an engine start
● the predetermined timing has been exceeded
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop during restart might be noticeable.
If the Infotainment system is active,
audio sound may briefly be reduced
or interrupted during the restart.
Warning chimes 3 99.
Fault
If control indicator Ï illuminates
yellow, there is a fault in the stop-start system 3 96. A corresponding
message also appears in the Driver
Information Centre 3 98. Seek the
assistance of a workshop.Parking9 Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply parking brake without pressing release
button. Apply as firmly as
possible on a downhill slope or
uphill slope. Depress brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.

AdBlue
General information
The selective catalytic reduction
(BlueInjection) is a method to
substantially reduce the nitrogen
oxides in the exhaust emission. This
is achieved by injecting a Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust
system.
The designation of this fluid is
AdBlue ®
. It is a non-toxic, non-
flammable, colourless and odourless
fluid which consists of 32% urea and
68% water.9 Warning
Avoid contact of your eyes or skin
with AdBlue.
In case of eye or skin contact,
rinse off with water.
Caution
Avoid contact of the paintwork with AdBlue.
In case of contact, rinse off with water.
AdBlue freezes at a temperature of
approx. -11 °C. As the vehicle is
equipped with an AdBlue pre-heater,
the emissions reduction at low
temperatures is ensured. The AdBlue
pre-heater works automatically.
AdBlue gauge
In versions without AdBlue level
warnings in the Driver Information
Centre, an AdBlue gauge is present,
which shows the current AdBlue fluid
level remaining in the tank.
AdBlue gauge 3 87.
Level warnings
The AdBlue consumption is approx.
1.5 litres per 1000 km and depends
on the driving behaviour.
Version with level warnings in the
Driver Information Centre
If the AdBlue level falls below a
certain value, a level warning will be
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre 3 98.
Page 141 of 255

Driving and operating139
Additionally, control indicator Õ
illuminates continuously together with a warning chime.
Refill the AdBlue tank as soon as
possible. Refer to "Refilling AdBlue"
below.
If AdBlue is not refilled within a certain
distance, further level warnings are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre depending on the current
AdBlue level.
Engine restarts prevented
Subsequent requests to refill AdBlue
and finally the announcement that an engine restart will be prevented are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.Note
These restrictions are a legal
requirement.
Before the prevention of an engine
restart, a warning message with
0 km is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre, indicating that after switching off the ignition an
engine restart will be prohibited.
After the prevention of an engine
start, a warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre
reminding the driver that AdBlue level
is insufficient.
To allow the engine to be restarted,
the tank should be refilled completely
or with a volume of at least ten litres
of AdBlue, depending on AdBlue
consumption.Warning stages: level warnings,
