Rear view mirror
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror dimming

Mirrors
61WARNINGExterior mirrors increase the field of view, however, they make objects ap-
pear smaller and further away. Therefore, use the interior mirror whenever
possible for assessing the distances to the vehicles following behind.
Interior mirror dimming

Interior mirror: manual dimming/auto-darkening
Read and observe
on page 61 first.
Mirrors with manual dimming » Fig. 52 -
Basic mirror position (not darkened)
Mirror dimming
Mirror with automatic dimming
The mirror dimming » Fig. 52 -
is automatically controlled after the engine
start.
When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the
mirror moves back into the basic position (not dimmed).
12WARNING■ Attach external devices (e.g. navigation system) not in the vicinity of the
mirror with automatic dimming . The illuminated display of an external de-
vice can affect the function of the rear-view mirror - it could cause an acci-
dent.■
The automatic dimming mirror only functions smoothly if the light falling
on the sensors is not compromised (e.g. by the sunshade at the back). The
sensors are located on the front and back of the mirror.
WARNING■ The mirrors with automatic dimming contain electrolyte fluid which may
leak if the mirror glass is broken - this can irritate skin, eyes and the respi-
ratory system.■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immedi-
ately wash the affected area for several minutes plenty of water. If neces-
sary get medical assistance.

When this function is switched on, the corresponding icon appears in the dis-
play.
After the cooling system is switched off, only the ventilation function remains
active, whereby the lowest temperature that can be reached is the outside
temperature.
Set the temperature
In the range between 16 °C to 29° C, an automatic temperature control takes
place.
At a temperature setting below 16 ° C, lights up in the temperature display,
the Climatronic functions with maximum cooling performance .
At a temperature setting over 29° C, lights up in the temperature display, the
Climatronic functions with maximum heating output.
Switching between Celsius and Fahrenheit
Press the key and
simultaneously and hold 2 s, the display shows the
desired unit (item appears 3
» Fig. 112 ).
CAUTION
Do not cover the interior temperature sensor11» Fig. 112 - the function of the
Climatronic could be affected.
Note
In order to ensure adequate thermal comfort, there may be an increase in en-
gine idle speed during operation of the Climatronic in some circumstances.

Conditions for the system function
The following conditions are required for the correct system function.
The driver's door is closed.
The driver has fastened the seat belt.
The driving speed exceeded 4 km/h after the last stop. No trailer or other accessory is connected to the trailer socket.
System status
The system status is shown on the display » Fig. 116 when stopped.
The engine is automatically switched off; when driving off again, the en-
gine is started automatically.
The motor is not automatically switched off.
The engine does not shut down when the vehicle stops, if e.g. the following
applies.
▶ The engine temperature for the proper function of the system has not yet
been reached.
▶ The charge state of the vehicle battery is too low.
▶ The current consumption is too high.
▶ High air conditioning or heating output (high fan speed, big difference be-
tween the desired and actual interior temperature).
If the engine has shut down automatically but the system detects that the en- gine is required to run (e.g. if the brake pedal is pressed repeatedly) then the
system automatically starts up the engine.
More information about the current system status can be displayed on the In-
fotainment screen » Owner's Manual Infotainment .
If there is a system fault , the following message will appear in the display of
the instrument cluster. Seek help from a specialist garage.
Note
■ If the driver's seat belt is removed for more than 30 seconds or the driver's
door is opened after the engine has switched off automatically, the engine will
have to be restarted manually.■
No automatic engine shut-down takes place when a vehicle with automatic
transmission is moving at low speed (e.g. during a traffic jam) and remains sta-
tionary after pressing the brake pedal lightly. Automatic engine shutdown
takes place if you press the brake pedal down with more force.
■
For vehicles with automatic transmission there is no automatic engine shut-
down when the system detects a manoeuvring action due to a large steering
angle.

Button for the START-STOP sys-
tem
›
To deactivate/activate the system, press the
button
» Fig. 117 .
When the system is deactivated, the symbol in the button lights up .
If the system is deactivated, then it is automatically activated again after
switching the ignition off and on.
Note
If the system is automatically deactivated when the engine is turned off, then
the automatic start process takes place.
Brakes and Parking
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Handbrake
94
Parking
94
The wear and tear on the brake pads is dependent on the operating condi-
tions and driving style. In difficult conditions (e.g. urban, sporty driving), the
condition of the brakes should be checked between service intervals by a spe-
cialist garage.
Brake response can be slower if the brakes are covered in moisture or, in win-
ter, have a layer of ice or salt on them . The brakes should be cleaned and
dried by applying the brakes many times over »
.
Corrosion on the brake discs and dirt on the brake pads can occur if the vehicle
has been parked for a long period and if you do not make much use of the
braking system. The brakes are cleaned by applying the brakes several times
over »
.
