omatic protection against overheating
If the system is operated repeatedly in a short
space of time, it automatically switches off to
prevent overheating.
Once the system is cool again, the function
can be reused. Until then, the rear lid can only
be opened and closed by hand using reason-
able force.
If with the rear lid open the vehicle battery is
disconnected

Deactivating
Press the button A or [ until all the warning
lamps switch off. WARNING
Children and people who cannot perceive
pain or temper at

ure because of medica-
tions, paralysis or chronic diseases (e.g.
diabetes) or have a limited perception of
these, may suffer burns to the back, but-
tocks or legs when using seat heating, an
occurrence that may entail a very lengthy
recovery period or from which it may not be
possible to recover fully. Seek medical ad-
vice if you have doubts regarding your
health.

engines with auxiliary heating). With
the option deactivated, depending
on the outside temperature the heat-

to reach a comfortable temperature.

Departure time 1 , Departure time
2, Departure time 3 : Three differ
ent de-
parture times (hh.mm) may be programmed. If
the auxiliary heater should only be switched
on a certain day of the week, this can also be
selected.
Duration : The duration det ermines the oper
-
ating time of the auxiliary heater when switch-
ed on using the fast heating button  on the air conditioning controls. The duration is also
used to calculate the departure time for the
manual air conditioner. It can be set between
10 and 60 minutes at 10-minute intervals.
E This returns to the main menu. The programmed departure time determines
the appr
oximat

e time it should take to reach
the temperature set in the vehicle. The start of
the heating operation is determined automat-
ically depending on the outside temperature.
Checking the programming
When a departure time is activated and the
ignition is switched off the control lamp of the
fast heating button  lights up for approxi- mately 10 seconds. WARNING
Never programme the auxiliary heater so
that it swit ches itself on and is running in an
encl

osed space or an area with no ventila-
tion. The auxiliary heater exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, an odourless
and colourl
ess t

oxic gas. Carbon monoxide
can cause people to lose consciousness. It
can also cause death. Operating instructions
The auxiliary heater exhaust system located
belo
w the v

ehicle must be kept clear of snow,
mud and other objects. The exhaust fumes
must be able to exit freely. The emissions
generated by the auxiliary heater are re-
moved via an exhaust pipe fitted underneath
the vehicle.
On heating the vehicle interior, depending on
the outside temperature, the warm air is first
directed at the windscreen and then to the
rest of the vehicle interior through the air
vents. Directing the diffusers

Driving
Since the luggage rack increases the aer o-
dynamic dr ag
of the vehicle, you should re-
move it when not needed. At speeds of
100-120 km/h (62-75 mph), this will save 12%
of fuel.
Save electrical energy
The engine drives the alternator, thereby
generating electricity. This implies that any
increase in power consumption also increa-
ses fuel consumption! For this reason, switch
off any unneeded electrical devices. Devices
that use a lot of electricity includes the blow-
er at a high setting, the rear window heating
or the seat heating*.
Power management
This system helps to ensur
e relia-
ble starting The power management controls the distri-
bution of el
ectrical ener
gy and thus helps t

o
ensure that there is always enough power
available to start the engine.
If a vehicle with a conventional electrical sys-
tem is left parked for a long time, the battery
will gradually lose its charge because certain
electrical devices, such as the electronic
gearbox lock continues to draw current even
when the ignition is off. In some cases there may not be enough power available to start
the engine.
Your v

ehicle is equipped with an intelligent
power management system to control the
distribution of electrical energy. This signifi-
cantly improves reliability when starting the
engine, and also prolongs the useful life of the
battery.
The main functions incorporated in the power
management system are battery diagnosis,
residual current management and dynam-
ic power management.
Battery diagnosis
The battery diagnosis function constantly
registers the condition of the battery. Sensors
detect the battery voltage, battery current
and battery temperature. This enables the
system to calculate the current power level
and charge condition of the battery.
Residual current management
The residual current management reduces
power consumption while the vehicle is
parked. It controls the supply of power to the
various electrical devices while the ignition is
switched off. The system takes the battery di-
agnosis data into consideration.
Depending on the power level of the battery,
switch off the individual electrical devices
one after the other to prevent the battery from losing too much charge and to ensure
that the engine can be started r
eliably.
Dynamic power management
While the vehicle is moving, this function dis-
tributes the available power to the various
electrical devices and systems according to
their requirements. The power management
ensures that on-board systems do not con-
sume more electrical power than the alterna-
tor can supply, and thus maintains the maxi-
mum possible battery power level. Note
