Climate control
In the Climate menu, select menu
item Auto recirc and activate or
deactivate.
Switch to manual air recirculation as
necessary.
Manual air recirculation mode
The manual air recirculation mode is
operated with the 4 button. 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. Air conditioning with the engine
not running
When

ignition is off, the residual heat
or cooling in the system can be used
for climate control in passenger
compartment. Press the AUTO button with the
ignition off. Residual air conditioning
on will appear briefly in the display.
Residual climate control can only
operate

for a limited period of time. To
cancel, press the AUTO button.
Auxiliary heater
Air heater
Quickheat is an electric auxiliary air
heater which warms up the
passenger compartment more
quickly.
Coolant heater
Diesel-engined vehicles have a fuel-
powered auxiliary coolant heater
which warms up the engine coolant
when the engine is running. Air vents
Adjustable air vents
At least one air vent must be open
while
cooling is on in order to prevent
the evaporator from icing up due to
lack of air movement.
Air vents with adjuster wheel To open or close the vent, turn the
adjuster wheel.

Driving and operating
147
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils or entirely or partially plant-based
diesel fuels, such as rape seed oil or
bio diesel, Aquazole and similar
diesel-water emulsions. Diesel fuels
must not be diluted with fuels for
petrol engines.
The flow and filterability of diesel fuel
are temperature-dependent. When
temperatures are low, refuel with
diesel fuel with guaranteed winter
properties.
Fuel for natural gas
operation
Use natural gas with a methane
content of approx. 78 - 99 %. L-gas
(low) has approx. 78 - 87 % and H-gas
(high) has approx. 87 - 99 %. Biogas
with the same methane content can
also be used if it has been chemically
prepared and desulphurised.
Liquid gas or LPG must not be used. Refuelling
9
Danger Before refuelling, switch off engine
and any external heaters with
combustion chambers (identified
by

sticker on fuel filler flap). Switch
off any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling. 9
Danger Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by
a workshop.
Fuel filler flap is located at right rear
side of vehicle.
The
