Heating and air conditioning
While in motion, the air conditioning should not be switched on if the win-
dows are open.
If the interior temperature can be reached without switching on the air con-
ditioning, the fresh air mode should be used.
For the sake of the environment
This saves on fuel and reduces emissions.
Faults
If the air conditioning does not work at outside temperatures above +5 °C
(+41 °F) then the system is faulty. This may be due to one of the following
reasons:
● One of the fuses has blown. Check the fuse and replace if necessary
⇒ page 219.
● The air conditioning compressor has switched off temporarily because
of an increased engine coolant temperature ⇒ page 58.
If you cannot repair the fault yourself or where the cooling power continues
to drop, switch the system off. Contact a specialised service. Air ventsFig. 96 Air vents
Opening air vents 3 and 4
– Turn the vertical circular control upwards.
Closing air vents 3 and 4

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 136 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. 99 ⇒ page 136 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. 99 ⇒ page 136.
● Adjust vents 3 ⇒ page 129 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. 99 ⇒ page 136 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.

Heating and air conditioning
Temperature selection
– When you switch on the ignition, control 1 ⇒ Fig. 99
⇒ page 136 can be used to set the required interior tempera-
ture.
The interior temperature can be adjusted 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. 99 ⇒ page 136 and the
symbol
is displayed on the screen.
Switching off air recirculation mode
– Press button
17 ⇒ Fig. 99 ⇒ page 136 and the
symbol
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. 99 ⇒
page 136 anti-clockwise (de-
crease 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.

Introduction
WARNING
● Never adjust the steering wheel while the vehicle is moving!
● Maintain at least 25 cm distance between the steering wheel and the
upper part of your body 1
⇒ Fig. 100
⇒ page 140. The airbag system
will not be able to give the required protection if the minimum distance is
not observed. This can cause a risk of fatal injury!
● For safety reasons, the steering wheel adjustment lever must always
be pushed securely against the steering column to prevent the steering
wheel from accidentally changing position while driving. Risk of acci-
dent!
● If the steering wheel is adjusted closer to your face, the protective ef-
fect of the driver airbag will be decreased in the event of an accident.
Check that the steering wheel is pointing towards the upper part of your
body.
● When driving, always hold the steering wheel with both hands on the
outside part at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions. Never hold the
steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position, or in any other manner (e.g. in
the centre of the steering wheel). In such cases, if the airbag is triggered,
you may sustain injuries to the arms, hands and head.
● When moving with the engine switched off, the ignition key must al-
ways remain in position 2
⇒ Fig. 101 ⇒
page 141 (ignition on). The
control lamps will light up in this position. Otherwise, the steering lock
could engage suddenly. Risk of accident!
WARNING (Continued)
● Do not remove the key from the ignition until the vehicle has come to
a standstill and is secure (e.g. the handbrake is engaged). Otherwise, the
steering lock could suddenly engage. Risk of accident!
● Always take the ignition key with you when you leave the vehicle.
This is particularly important if you leave children in the vehicle. Children
could start the engine, for example, with the subsequent risk of accident.
● Never leave the engine running in unventilated or closed rooms. The
exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an odourless and colourless
poisonous gas. Risk of fatal accidents! Carbon monoxide can cause peo-
ple to lose consciousness and can cause death.
● Never leave the vehicle unattended if the engine is running.
● Never switch the engine off until the vehicle is stationary. Risk of ac-
cident!
CAUTION
● Turning the steering wheel fully in either direction when the vehicle is
stationary and the engine in gear puts the power steering under great
stress. This could lead to noise. Never leave the steering wheel turned fully
in either direction for more than 15 seconds. Risk of damage to the power
steering system!
● The starter motor may only be used (key position 3
⇒ Fig. 101
⇒ page 141 in the ignition) if the engine is off. Using the starter motor
when the engine is running could cause damage.
● Immediately release the ignition key when the engine starts, otherwise
damage could be caused to the starter motor.
● When the engine is cold, you should avoid high engine speeds, driving
at full throttle and over-loading the engine before it reaches operating tem-
perature. Risk of engine damage!
