Climate control
Heated rear window Ü 3 42.
The preselected temperature is
automatically regulated. In the
automatic
mode the fan speed and air
distribution automatically regulate the
air flow.
The system can be manually adapted
by use of air distribution and air flow
controls. Data is shown on the Info-Display.
Setting modifications are briefly
shown in the Info-Display

,
superimposing over the currently
displayed menu. The electronic climate control system
is only fully operational when the
engine is running.
Do not cover the sensor on the
instrument panel for correct
operation.
Automatic mode
Basic setting for maximum comfort:
■

Press AUTO button.
■ Open all air vents.
■ Air conditioning on.
■ Set desired temperature.
Temperature preselection
Temperatures can be set to the
disired value.
For reasons of comfort, change
temperature only in small increments.
If the minimum temperature is set,
Lo appears in the display and the
electronic climate control system runs
at maximum cooling.
If the maximum temperature is set,
Hi appears in the display and the
electronic climate control system runs
at maximum heating. Fan speed
The selected fan speed is indicated
with
x
and the number in the display.
If the fan is switched off the air
conditioning is also deactivated.
To return to automatic mode: Press
AUTO button.
Demisting and defrosting the
windows
Press the V button. V appears in
the display.
Temperature and air distribution are
set automatically and the fan runs at
a high speed.
To return to automatic mode: press
button V or AUTO.
Switch on heated rear window Ü.
Manual settings in climate menu
Climate control system settings can
be changed via the centre control, the
buttons and the menus shown on the
display.
To view the menu, press the centre
control. The Climate menu appears in
the display.

Climate control
123
Individual menu items are marked by
turning the centre control and
selected by pressing it.
To
exit a menu, turn the centre control
until Return or Main appear and
select.
Air distribution
Turn the centre control. The Air
distribut. menu is activated, showing
the possible air distribution settings:

Bottom = to foot well.
The Air distribut. menu can also be
called up via the Climate menu.
Return to automatic air distribution:
Deactivate corresponding setting or
press button AUTO. Cooling
In the Climate menu, select menu
item AC and activate or deactivate
cooling.
The air condition 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,
switch the cooling system off to save
fuel, Eco appears in the display. Fan regulation in automatic
mode
Fan

regulation in automatic mode can
be adapted.
Select menu item Automatic blower
from the Climate menu and select the
desired fan regulation.
Automatic air recirculation The automatic air recirculation
system has an air quality sensor
which can switch automatically to
recirculation.

Driving and operating
145
Reduction
With cruise control active, hold down
button g
or briefly press it repeatedly:
speed is reduced continuously or in
small increments.
When button g is released the current
speed is stored and maintained.
Deactivation
Briefly press the § button: cruise
control is deactivated.
Automatic deactivation:
■ Vehicle speed below approx. 30 km/h
■ The brake pedal is depressed
■ The clutch pedal is depressed
■ Selector lever in N. Object detection
systems
Parking assist Parking assist makes parking easier
by measuring the distance between
the vehicle and obstacles. It is the
driver, however, who maintains full
responsibility for parking.
The
system consists of four ultrasonic
parking sensors bumper mounted.
Control indicator r 3 89.
Note
Attached parts in the detection area
cause system malfunction.
Activation When reverse gear is engaged, the
system switches itself on
automatically.

146
Driving and operating
The system can also be activated at
low speed by pressing the r button.
An obstacle is indicated by buzzers.
The interval between the buzzers
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to the obstacle. When the
distance is less than 30 cm, the
buzzer is continuous. 9
Warning Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external

noise sources may cause
the system to fail to detect
obstacles. Deactivation
Deactivate the system by pressing
the r button.
The system automatically switches
itself off when the vehicle is driven
above a certain speed.
Towing equipment
The system automatically considers
a factory-fitted towing equipment. The rear parking sensors are
deactivated when towing.
Fuel
Fuel for petrol engines
Only

use unleaded fuel that complies
with DIN EN 228.
Fuels with ethanol content greater
than 5% may only be used if the
vehicle has been specifically
developed and approved for these
fuels.
Use fuel with the recommended
octane rating 3 209. Use of fuel with
too low an octane rating can reduce
engine power and torque and slightly
increases fuel consumption. Caution
Use of fuel with too low an octane
rating could lead to uncontrolled
combustion and engine damage.
Fuel for diesel engines
Only use diesel fuel that complies
with

DIN EN 590. The fuel must have
low sulphur content (max. 50 ppm).

Vehicle careOn vehicles with tyre pressure
monitoring
system, screw the adapter
to the valve.
Tyre pressure 3 220 and on the label
on the inside of the fuel filler flap.
The tyre pressure data refer to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter
tyres.
Always inflate the spare wheel to the
pressure specified for full load.
The ECO tyre pressure serves to
achieve the smallest amount of fuel
consumption possible. It must not be
used with run-flat tyres. Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
9
Warning If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up

and internal damage, leading to
tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds. Tyre pressure monitoring
system
The tyre pressure monitoring system
continually checks the pressure of all
four wheels when vehicle speed
exceeds a certain limit.
All wheels must be equipped with
pressure sensors and the tyres must
have the prescribed pressure.
Otherwise, the tyre pressure will be
monitored by the deflation detection
system 3 177.
The current tyre pressures can be
shown in the Info-Display

3 107. Vehicle messages, tyre pressure
3 101.
Control indicator
w 3 90.
If a complete set of wheels without
sensors is mounted (e.g. four winter
tyres), no error message will be
displayed. The tyre pressure
monitoring system is not operational.
Retrofitting of sensors is possible.
The use of commercially available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory
approved systems can be used.
External high-power radio equipment
could disrupt the tyre pressure
monitoring system.
