a)This type of setting is not recommended in countries with high air humidity. The windows could cool too quickly and cause them to mist over on the outside.
b) The lamp in button 2 lights up, even if not all of the conditions for cooling system operations are met. Cooling is indicated as available once all of the conditions are met

Switching off air recirculation mode
–Press button
1 ⇒ Fig. 99 ⇒ page 129 again and the lamp
in the button will switch off.
If air distribution control C
⇒ Fig. 99 ⇒
page 129 is in position , air recir-
culation mode switches off automatically Press the button to switch air
recirculation mode back on in this position.
WARNING
Never use the air recirculation system for too long, as it prevents fresh air
from entering the vehicle and “used” air can cause tiredness, reduce your
attention span and cause the windows to mist over. This increases the
risk of an accident. Switch off the air recirculation system as soon as the
windows begin to mist over.
Climatronic* (automatic air conditioning) General notes
Climatronic automatically maintains a comfortable temperature. To do so, it
automatically regulates the supplied air temperature and the blower and air
distribution levels. The system also allows for the effect of sunlight, so there
is no need for manual adjustment. Automatic operations ⇒ page 133 guar-
antee maximum comfort any time of year.
Climatronic description
Cooling only works if the following conditions are met:
● The engine is running
● The outside temperature is above +2 °C (+36 °F)
● AC
18 ⇒ Fig. 100 ⇒ page 133 on. In order to ensure engines subject to heavy loads are cooled, the air condi-
tioning compressor is switched off in the event of high coolant tempera-
tures.
Recommended setting for all seasons
●
Set the required temperature. We recommend 22 °C (72 °F).
● Press the AUTO
button 12 ⇒
Fig. 100 ⇒ page 133.
● Adjust vents 3 ⇒ page 126 and 4 so that the air flow is directed slightly
upwards.
Change between degrees Centigrade and degrees Fahrenheit
Keep the AUTO
and AC buttons
⇒ Fig. 100 ⇒ page 133 pressed down at
the same time. The data is displayed on the screen in the units required.
Note
A visit to the specialised service once a year is recommended to clean the
Climatronic system.

Note
The interior temperature sensor 11 ⇒ Fig. 100 ⇒

Do not cover it with stickers or the like, as this could have a negative effect
on Climatronic operations.
Automatic mode
Automatic mode is used to maintain a constant temperature and
demist the windows inside the vehicle.
Switching on automatic mode
– Set the temperature to between +18 °C (+64 °F) and +29 °C
(+84 °F).
– Adjust vents 3 ⇒ page 126 and 4 so that the air flow is directed
slightly upwards.
– Press the AUTO
button 12 ⇒
Fig. 100 and AUTO displayed on
the screen.
Automatic mode is switched off by pressing the air distribution buttons or
increasing or decreasing the blower speed. However, the temperature re-
mains regulated.

134Heating and air conditioning
Temperature selection
–When you switch on the ignition, control 1 ⇒ Fig. 100
⇒ page 133 can be used to set the required interior tempera-
ture.
The interior temperature can be set to between +18 °C (+64 °F) and +29 °C
(+84 °F). The temperature is regulated automatically within this range. If a
temperature below +18 °C (+64 °F) is selected, “LO” is displayed on the
screen. If a temperature above +29 °C (+84 °F) is selected, “HI” is displayed
on the screen. At both extremes, Climatronic works at maximum cooling or
heating power, respectively. The temperature is not regulated.
In the event of prolonged, irregular distribution of the air flow from the out-
lets (particularly the footwells) and significant differences in temperature,
e.g. on leaving the vehicle, sensitive people may catch a cold.
Air recirculation
Air recirculation prevents unpleasant smells, e.g. when passing
through a tunnel or in queuing traffic, from entering the interior.
Switching on air recirculation mode
– Press button
17 ⇒ Fig. 100 ⇒ page 133 and the
sym-
bol is displayed on the screen.
Switching off air recirculation mode
– Press button
17 ⇒ Fig. 100 ⇒ page 133 and the
sym-
bol disappears from the screen.
WARNING
Never use the air recirculation system for too long, as it prevents fresh air
from entering the vehicle and “used” air can cause tiredness, reduce your
attention span and cause the windows to mist over. This increases the
risk of an accident. Switch off the air recirculation system as soon as the
windows begin to mist over.
Note
If air recirculation mode remains on for 15 minutes, the symbol will
start to flash on the screen to indicate prolonged air recirculation. If air recir-
culation is not switched off, the symbol will continue to flash for 5 minutes.
Blower selection
Climatronic automatically regulates the blower speed according to
the interior temperature. It is possible, however, to set the blower
speed to suit requirements.
– Turn rotary control 10
⇒ Fig. 100 ⇒
page 133 anti-clockwise
(decrease speed) or clockwise (increase speed).
Climatronic will switch off when the blower switches off.
WARNING
● “Used air” can cause tiredness, reduce attention spans and cause the
windows to mist over. This increases the risk of an accident.
● Do not switch off Climatronic for longer than necessary.
● Switch Climatronic back on as soon as the windows begin to mist
over.

Weight in running order
Fuel consumption (in litres per/100 km (miles)) – urban/on the motor-
way/combined
Combined CO
2 emissions (g/km (miles))
Type plate
The type plate ⇒ Fig. 168 is located at the bottom of the front driver side
door pillar between the front and rear door.
The type plate indicates the following weights:
Total permitted weight of the vehicle when loaded
Maximum authorised weight of the vehicle with a trailer, when the vehi-
cle operates as a tractor
Maximum permitted load of the front axle
Maximum permitted load of the rear axle
Weight in running order
The weight in running order only has one approximate value. This value cor-
responds to the minimum operative weight of the vehicle without additional
equipment that increases its weight, i.e. air conditioning, spare wheel, tow-
ing bracket.
The weight in running order also includes 75 kg of the weight of the driver
and the service liquids, in addition to a fuel tank at 90 % capacity.
From the difference between the total permitted weight in running order the
approximate carrying capacity can be calculated ⇒
.
The carrying capacity must include:
● occupants
● all pieces of equipment and other weights
● roof loads incl. roof rack
