40Keys, doors and windowsTo silence the alarm siren (if
triggered) and therefore deactivate
the anti-theft alarm system, reconnect vehicle battery and unlock the vehicle
or switch on the ignition.
Immobiliser
The immobiliser is part of the ignition
switch and checks whether the
vehicle is allowed to be started with the key being used.
The immobiliser is activated
automatically after the key has been removed from the ignition switch and
also if the key is left in the ignition
switch when the engine is turned off.
If the engine cannot be started, switch off the ignition and remove key, wait
approx. two seconds and then repeat
the start attempt. If start attempt is
unsuccessful, attempt to start the
engine using the spare key and seek
the assistance of a workshop.Note
Radio Frequency Identification
(RFID) tags may cause interference with the key. Do not have it placednear the key when starting the
vehicle.
Note
The immobiliser does not lock the doors. You should always lock the
vehicle after leaving it and switch on the anti-theft alarm system 3 26,
3 38.Exterior mirrors
Convex shape The convex exterior mirror contains
an aspherical area and reduces blind spots. The shape of the mirror makes
objects appear smaller, which will affect the ability to estimate
distances.
Manual adjustment
Adjust mirrors by swivelling in
required direction.

124Climate controlSet the fan < to regulate the amount
of cooled air to be flown into the rear
passenger compartment.
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.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.
Control units
The timer or remote control unit turns the system on and off, and is used to
programme specific departure times.Timer (Type A)1 Display:Displays preset, current

130Climate controlRear air ventsDepending on vehicle, additional
adjustable air vents are located in the
rear passenger compartment.
Fixed air vents
Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door
windows, in the foot wells and,
depending on vehicle, in the rear
passenger compartment.
Glovebox cooler The air conditioning system can alsokeep the contents of the glovebox
cool.Maintenance
Air intake The air intake in front of the
windscreen in the engine
compartment must be kept clear to
allow air intake. Remove any leaves,
dirt or snow.
Air conditioning regular operation
In order to ensure continuously
efficient performance, cooling must
be operated for a few minutes once a
month, irrespective of the weather
and time of year. Operation with
cooling is not possible when outside
temperature is too low.
ServiceFor optimal cooling performance, it is
recommended to annually check the
climate control system, starting
3 years after initial vehicle
registration, including:
● functionality and pressure test
● heating functionality● leakage check
● check of drive belts
● cleaning of condenser and evaporator drainage
● performance check
Note
Refrigerant R-134a contains
fluorinated greenhouse gases with a global warming potential of 1430.
Front air conditioning system is filled
with 0.58 kg and has a CO 2
equivalent of 0.83 tonnes, the front
and rear air conditioning system is
filled with 0.88 kg and has a CO 2
equivalent of 1.26 tonnes.
Depending on vehicle, information
regarding air conditioning refrigerant
appears on a label located in the
engine compartment.

sound and a message " IGNITION
OFF " is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre as a reminder that
the engine is on standby and has not
been switched off.
Conditions for an Autostop
