107Seats and practical features

WARNING■The auxiliary heating must never be operated in closed rooms (e.g. garag-
es) – risk of poisoning!■
The auxiliary heating must not be allowed to run during refuelling – risk
of fire.
■
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating is located on the underside of
the vehicle. If you want to use the heater, then the car should not be
parked in places where the exhaust gases can come into contact with flam- mable materials such as dry grass, undergrowth, leaves, spilled fuel or simi-
lar - Risk of fire.
CAUTION
■ The running auxiliary heater consumes fuel from the vehicle tank and auto-
matically controls the filling level. If only a low quantity of fuel is present in the
fuel tank, the auxiliary heating switches off.■
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating, which is located on the underside
of the vehicle, must not be clogged and the exhaust flow must not be blocked.
■
If the auxiliary heating is running, the vehicle battery discharges. If the auxili-
ary heating and ventilation has been operated several times over a longer peri-
od, the vehicle must be driven a few kilometres in order to recharge the vehi-
cle battery.
■
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free (e.g. of ice, snow or
leaves) to ensure that the auxiliary heating operates properly.
Note
■ The auxiliary heating switches on the blower B » Fig. 125 on page 112
or » Fig. 126 on page 115 only if it has achieved a coolant temperature of ap-
prox. 50 °C.■
At low outside temperatures, this can result in a formation of water vapour in
the area of the engine compartment. This is quite normal and is not an operat-
ing problem.
■
So that warm air can flow into the vehicle interior after switching on the aux-
iliary heating, you must maintain the comfort temperature normally selected
by you, leave the fan switched on and leave the air outlet vents in an open po-
sition. It is recommended to put the air flow in the position 
or 

DialogueFig. 130
Multifunction steering wheel
The voice control system (hereinafter referred to as the system) makes it pos-
sible to use voice commands for some functions of the hands-free system.
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice com-
mands and to carry them out is called a dialogue. The system gives audible
feedback and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors. › Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive pauses.
› Avoid a bad pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, to reduce or stop disturbing exte-
rior noise.
› It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the tone of your
voice is louder than the increased surrounding noise.
› During the dialogue, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers talk-
ing at the same time.
› Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
The microphone for voice control is inserted in the moulded headliner and di- rected to the driver and front passenger. Therefore the driver and the front
passenger can operate the equipment.
Entering a phone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous series of individually
spoken digits (the whole number at once) or in the form of digital blocks (sepa-
rated by short pauses). After each order of digits (separation through brief
voice pause) all of the digits detected up to now are repeated by the system.
The digits 0 - 9, symbols +, , # are permitted. The system detects no continu-
ous digit combinations such as twenty-three, but only individually spoken dig-
its (two, three).

tem » page 140 .
The engine can only be started using a correctly coded original key.
The engine running noises may louder at first be louder for a short time after
starting the cold engine. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem.
WARNING■ When the vehicle is travelling with the engine off, the ignition key must
always be in position 2 » Fig. 134 on page 139 (ignition switched on). This
position is confirmed by the appearance of certain indicator lamps in the in-
strument cluster. ■If the key is not in position 2,
it could unexpectedly lock the steering -
danger of accident!
■
Only pull the ignition key from the ignition lock when the vehicle has
come to a complete stop (by applying the handbrake). Otherwise, the steer-
ing could be blocked – risk of accident!
■
Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
ized persons, such as children, for example, could lock the car, turn on the
ignition or start the engine - there is a danger of injury and accidents!
■
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running - there is
risk of accident, damage or theft!
■
Never switch off the engine before the vehicle is stationary – risk of acci-
dent!
WARNING■ Never leave the engine running in unventilated or closed rooms. The en-
gine's exhaust gases also contain the odourless and colourless carbon
monoxide, a poisonous gas – risk of death. ■ Carbon monoxide can cause unconsciousness and death.■
Do not leave any items (e.g. cleaning cloths or tools) in the engine com-
partment. This presents a fire hazard and the risk of engine damage.
■
Never cover the engine with additional insulation material (e.g. with a
cover) – risk of fire!
CAUTION
■ The starter must only be operated when the engine is not running and the
vehicle is at a standstill. The starter or engine can be damaged if the starter is
activated when the engine is running 3
» Fig. 134 on page 139 .
■
Do not tow start the engine – there is a risk of damaging the engine and the
catalytic converter. The battery from another vehicle can be used as a jump-
start aid » page 211 , Jump-starting .
CAUTION
■
Avoid high engine revolutions, full throttle and high engine loads before the
engine has reached its operating temperature – risk of damaging the engine!■
Do not switch the engine off immediately at the end of your journey after the
engine has been operated over a prolonged period at high loads but leave it to
run at an idling speed for about 1 minute. This prevents any possible accumula-
tion of heat when the engine is switched off.
For the sake of the environment
Do not warm up the engine while the vehicle is stationary. If possible, start
your journey as soon as the engine has started. Through this the engine rea-
ches its operating temperature more rapidly and the pollutant emissions are
lower.
Note
After switching off the ignition, the radiator fan can intermittently continue to
operate for approx. 10 minutes.138Driving

Electronic immobilizerRead and observe

An electronic chip is integrated in the head of the key. The immobiliser is deac-
tivated with the aid of this chip when the key is inserted in the ignition lock.
The electronic immobiliser is automatically activated when the ignition key is
withdrawn from the lock.
The engine will not start if a non-authorized ignition key is used.
