Coolant
Read and observe
on page 35 first.
The indicator light remains
illuminated until the engine reaches operating
temperature 1)
. Avoid high speeds, full throttle and high engine loads.
If the warning light
lights up or flashes , either the coolant temperature is
too high or the coolant level is too low.
The following message is shown in the MAXI DOT display. Check coolant! Owner's manual!

WARNINGAlways adjust the headlight beam to meet the following conditions.■The vehicle does not dazzle other road users, especially oncoming vehi-
cles.■
The beam range is sufficient for safe driving.
Note
■ An audible warning signal will sound if the light switch is in the or posi-
tion, the ignition key is removed and the driver's door is opened. The audible
warning signal is switched off after a few seconds or as a result of door con-
tact when the driver's door is closed. However, the side lights remain on to illu-
minate the parked vehicle if necessary.■
If leaving the vehicle without needing the parking lights on, always turn
the light switch to position

Switch the cooling system on/off
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.
Setting temperature
The set temperature value appears in the display (pos. 2
» Fig. 86 ).
To switch between degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit, the keys
and are to be pressed and held simultaneously.
The information appears in the display in the desired temperature measuring
unit (pos.
3
» Fig. 86 ).
The interior temperature can be set between +18 °C and +29 ℃. The interior
temperature is regulated automatically within this range.
If you select the temperature below +18 ℃, “LO” appears in the display.
If you select a temperature higher than +29 ℃, “HI” appears in the display.
At both end positions, Climatronic runs at maximum cooling/heating output
and the temperature is automatically not regulated.
Controlling blower
The Climatronic system controls the blower stages automatically in line with the interior temperature. However, the blower level can be manually adjusted
to suit your particular needs.
If the blower speed is reduced to a minimum, Climatronic is switched off.
The blower speed set is indicated by displaying the corresponding number of
segments (Pos.
9
» Fig. 86 ) in the display.
Automatic mode
The automatic mode is used in order to maintain a constant temperature and to demist the windows in the interior of the car.
To switch on press the button
. The display shows
(pos.

Automatic mode can be
switched off by pressing one of the buttons for the air
distribution or by increasing/decreasing the blower speed. The temperature is
nevertheless regulated.WARNING■ Do not switch off the Climatronic system for longer than necessary.■Switch on the Climatronic system as soon as the windows mist up.
Note
■Do not stick anything on or cover the interior temperature sensor11 » Fig. 86 ; it could have an unfavourable effect on the Climatronic system.■
During operation of the Climatronic, an increase in engine idle speed can oc-
cur under certain circumstances in order to ensure adequate heating comfort.
■
As soon as the windscreen mists up, press the symbol button
. Press the
button
once the windscreen has demisted.
Efficient handling of the cooling system
Read and observe
and on page 85 first.
The air conditioning system compressor uses power from the engine when incooling mode, which will affect the fuel consumption.
It recommended to open the windows or the doors of a vehicle for which the
interior has been strongly heated through the effect of direct sunlight in order
to allow the heated air to escape.
The cooling system should not be on if the windows are open.
For the sake of the environment
Pollutant emissions are also reduced when fuel is saved » page 107.
malfunctions
Read and observe
and on page 85 first.
If the cooling system does not operate at outside temperatures higher than +5°C, there is a problem in the system. The reasons for this may be.
› One of the fuses has blown. Check the fuse and replace if necessa-
ry » page 169 .
› The cooling system has switched off automatically for a short time because
the coolant temperature of the engine is too hot » page 32.

legal requirements must be observed.
Headlights
The front of the vehicle may lift up when a trailer is being towed and the head-
lights may dazzle other road users.
Adjust the headlights using the headlight beam control » page 59.
WARNING■
Incorrectly or improperly connected electrical installations may cause mal-
function of the entire vehicle electronics and lead to accidents and serious
injury from electric shock.■
Work on the electrical system must only be carried out by specialist ga-
rages.
■
Never directly connect the trailer's electrical system with the electrical
connections for the tail lights or other current sources.
■
After coupling the trailer and connecting up the power socket, check the
rear lights on the trailer to ensure they are working.

the engine compartment » page 137, Engine compartment .CAUTION■
“Never repair” fuses, and do not replace them with fuses of a higher amper-
age – risk of fire! This may also cause damage at other points in the electrical
system.■
A blown fuses is recognisable by the molten metal strip. Replace the faulty
fuse with a new one of the same amperage.
■
If a newly inserted fuse burns through again, then a specialist should be con-
sulted immediately.
