Ve hi cle s wi th Service intervals dependent on time/distance travelled
already
have certain service intervals set. The intervals are calculated individually in
vehicles with LongLife service .
The service interval display only indicates the dates of services that include
engine oil change. The dates of all other services, such as Inspection Service
or brake fluid change, appear in the sticker on the door pillar or in the Main-
tenance Programme.
A Service pre-warning will appear in the odometer if a service is due soon. A
“spanner” symbol appears and the display “km” with the distance that can
be driven until the next service appointment is due. The display will change
after approximately 10 seconds. A “clock symbol” appears and the number
of days until the service appointment should be carried out. The following
message is shown in the instrument panel display*:

The multifunction system uses two automatic memories: 1 - Actual
memory and 2 - Total memory . The selected memory will be shown
in the upper right-hand corner of the display.
Selecting a memory
– When the ignition is on, briefly press button ⇒page 63, fig. 39
on the windscreen wiper lever to change from one memory to

Resetting a memory
– Select the memory that you would like to reset.
– Hold down button on the windscreen wiper lever or button on the steering wheel contro ls for at least 2 seconds.The trip memory 1 collects the travel and consumption rates from the
moment the ignition is switched on until it is switched off. If the journey is
continued within two hours of switching off the ignition, the new values will
be added to the existing trip recorder memory. The memory will automatically
be deleted if the journey is interrupted for more than two hours.
The total memory 2 collects the trip data for any number of individual jour-
neys (even if the ignition is switched off for longer than two hours) up to a
total of 19 hours and 59 minutes travel time or 1999 km distance travelled.
The memory will automatically be deleted if one of the named values is
reached.

Note
•The first aid kit and the fire extinguisher are not part of the vehicle’s
standard equipment.•The first aid kit must comply with legal requirements.•Observe the expiry date of the contents of the first aid kit. After it has
expired you should purchase a new one.•The fire extinguisher must comply with legal requirements.•Ensure that the fire extinguisher is fully functional. The fire extinguisher
should, therefore, be checked regularly. The sticker on the fire extinguisher
will inform you of the next date for checking.•Before acquiring accessories and emergency equipment see the instruc-
tions in ⇒page 212.Luggage compartmentStoring objects
All luggage must be securely stowed.Please observe the following points to ensure the vehicle handles
well at all times:
– Distribute the load as evenly as possible.
– Place heavy objects as far forward in the luggage compartment
as possible. – Secure luggage in the luggage compartment with suitable straps
on the fastening rings.
WARNING
•Loose luggage and other loose items in the vehicle can cause serious
injuries.•Loose objects in the luggage compartment can suddenly move and
change the way the vehicle handles.•During sudden manoeuvres or accidents, loose objects in the
passenger compartment can be flung forward, injuring vehicle occupants.•Always store objects in the luggage compartment and secure with suit-
able straps. This is especially important for heavy objects.•When you transport heavy objects, always take in account that a
change in the centre of gravity can also cause changes in vehicle handling.•Please observe information on safe driving ⇒page 7, “Safe driving”.Caution
Hard objects on the shelf could chafe against the wires of the heating
element in the rear window and cause damage.
Note
The ventilation slots in front of the rear side windows must not be covered as

fuel. The temperature continues to self-regulate. The set temperature can
then only be reached if it is higher than the outside temperature.
Driver and passenger temperature control
The button controls the synchronisation of the 2 Climatronic climate
zones.
When the button is on (LED lit), the climate zone of the Climatronic is
personalised, for example: Driver side temperature 22 °C and passenger side
temperature 23 °C.
When the button is off (LED off), the climate zone of the Climatronic is
synchronised, for example: Driver side temperature 22 °C and passenger side
temperature 22 °C.
If the button is off and the passenger side temperature is changed, the
function is automatically activated.Air recirculation mode
Air recirculation mode prevents fumes or unpleasant smells
from coming from the outside.–Press the button ⇒page 157, fig. 113 to switch air recir-
culation mode on or off. It is switched on if the following symbol
appears in the display
.
Air recirculation mode prevents strong odours in the ambient air from
entering the vehicle interior, for example when passing through a tunnel or in
a traffic jam.
With low outside temperatures, the air recirculation increases the effective-
ness of the heating system by heating the air inside the vehicle rather than
the air from outside. With high outside temperatures, the air recirculation increases the effective-
ness of the air conditioning system by cooling the air inside the vehicle rather
than the ambient air.
If the windscreen air output is on and the air recirculation mode is pressed,
this remains active. When the recirculation mode is on, if the air distribution
towards the windscreen mode is selected, the recirculation mode is deacti-
vated. For safety reasons, the air recirculation mode should not be
connected.
WARNING
In air recirculation mode, no cold air from the outside enters the vehicle
interior. If the air conditioning system is switched off, the windows can
quickly mist over. Therefore, never leave the air recirculation mode
switched on for a long time (risk of accident).General notesPollution filter
The pollution filter (a combined particulate filter and active carbon filter)
serves as a barrier against impurities in the outside air, including dust and
pollen.
For the air conditioner to work with maximum efficiency, the pollution filter
must be replaced at the intervals specified in the Service Schedule.
If the filter loses efficiency prematurely due to use in areas reaching very high
pollution levels, the pollen filter must be changed more frequently than
stated in the Service Schedule.
Air conditioner
When the air conditioning system is switched on, not only the temperature,
but also the air humidity in the vehicle interior is reduced. This improves
