The automatic mode is used in orde r to maintain a constant tempera-
ture and to demist the windows in the interior of the car.Switching automatic mode on– Set a temperature between +18 °C and +26 °C.
– Move the air outlet vents 3 and 4  page 96, fig. 99 , so that the air flow is directed
slightly upwards.
– Press the button . In the right or left top corner a warning light lights up, depending on which unit was last selected.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button lights up, the
Climatronic operates in “HIGH” mode. The “HIGH” mode is the standard setting of the
Climatronic.
When pressing again the button , the Climatronic changes into the “LOW” mode
and the warning light in the top left corner lights up. The Climatronic uses only in this
mode the lower blower speed. However taking into account the noise level, this is
more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of the air conditioning system is
reduced particularly if th e vehicle is fully occupied.
By pressing again the button , yo u change into the “HIGH” mode.
The automatic mode is switched off by pres sing the button for the air distribution or
increasing or decreasing the blower speed. The temperature is nevertheless
regulated.

The temperature control is controlled automatically. More air flows out of the air outlet
vents 1 and 2.Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)*Description and important information
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary he ating and ventilation) heats or
supplies the interior of the vehicl e with fresh air independent of the
engine.Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating)
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) functions in connection with the Climatic or
Climatronic.
It can be used when stationary, when engi ne is switched off for preheating of the
vehicle as well as while driving (only during the heating phase of the engine).
The engine is also preheated when the vehicle is stationary and the engine is switched
off, if the auxiliary heating is switched on.
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) wa rms up the coolant during the combustion
of fuel from the vehicle tank. The coolant warms up the air, which (if the blower speed
is not set to zero) flows into the occupant compartment.
Auxiliary ventilation
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by switching
off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively decreased (e.g. with the
vehicle parked in the sun).

Using the system
So that the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) func-
tions according to your expectations, it is necessary to carry out the
basic setting before its programming.Basic setting– On the information display, select in the Main menu the menu point
Aux. heating .
– In the menu Aux. heating select the menu point Weekday and set the current day.
– By selecting the menu point Back, you will reach in the menu Aux. heating.
– In the menu Aux. heating select the menu point Running time and set the desired
running time in steps of 5 minutes. The running time can be 10 to 60 minutes.
– By selecting the menu point Back, you will reach in the menu Aux. heating.
– In the menu Aux. heating select the menu point Mode.
– In the menu Mode select the desired mode Heating for or Ventilation for .ProgrammingFor the programming of the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) in the
menu Aux. heating (Aux. heating) there are three pre-set times:
Pre-set time 1

Pre-set time 2

Pre-set time 3
In each pre-set time, the day and the time (hour and minute) can be set for switching
on the auxiliary heating and/or ventilation.
An empty position can be fo und between Sunday and Monday when selecting the day.
If this empty position is selected, the activation is performed without taking into
account the day.
If you leave the pre-set menu by selecting the menu Back or do not make changes on
the display for longer than 10 seconds, the set values are stored, but the pre-set time
is not active. Both other pre-set times can be prog
rammed and stored in the same way.
If you select the menu Activate after setting the desired values, appears in the display
Pre-set time (weekday, hours, minute) activated. and the set pre-set time is active.
Only one programmed pre-set time can be active.
The last programmed pre-set time remains active.
After the auxiliary heating activates at the set time, it is necessary to pre-set a time
again.
Changing the active pre-set time is carried out after selecting the menu point Activate
in the menu Aux. heating (auxiliary heating) by selecting a pre-set time.
The prerequisite for the correct switching on of the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating
and ventilation) according to the programmed pre-set time is the correct setting of the
current time and the weekday page 107.
If the system is running, a warning light in th e button for direct switching on/off of the
auxiliary heating lights up.
The running system deactivates after expiration of the operating period or is deacti-
vated earlier by pressing the button for direct switching on/off of the auxiliary heating
 page 106.
A random pre-set time can be deac tivated by selecting the menu point Deactivate in
the menu Activate.
After selecting the menu Fac to r y s e tt ing in the menu Aux. heating , it is possible to
return to the factory setting.


You should not switch on any major elec trical components during the heating
period otherwise the vehicle battery will be drained unnecessarily.
- start engine
Applies to all models:
Position
To lock the steering , with the ignition key withdrawn, turn the steering wheel until the
steering locking pin is heard to engage. You should always lock the steering as a general
rule if you leave your vehicle. This acts as a deterrent against possible theft of your
vehicle .
Position
Move the steering wheel back and forward a little if the ignition key cannot, or cannot
easily be turned into this position, in order to release the steering lock.
Position
The engine is started in this position. At the same time, major electrical components
are switched off for short periods. The ignition key moves back into position when
one releases the key.
The ignition key must be turned back into position each time before starting the
engine again. The starter repeat lock in th e ignition lock prevents the starter being
engaged when the engine is r unning and thus getting damaged.
Ignition key withdrawal lock (automatic gearbox)
You can only withdraw the ignition key after switching off the ignition if the selector
lever is in position P.
WARNING

When driving, the ignition key must always be in the position (ignition
switched on) without the engine running. This position is indicated by the
warning lights coming on. If this is not the case, it could result in unexpected
locking of the steering wh eel - risk of accident!

Only remove the ignition key from the ignition lock when the vehicle has
come to a standstill (by applying the handbrake or moving the selector lever
into the position P). The steering lock can engage imme diately - risk of acci-
dent!

Always withdraw the ignition key if you are going to leave the vehicle, even
for a short time. This is particularly important if children are left in the vehicle.
The children might otherwise start the engi ne or switch on electrical equipment
(e.g. power windows) - risk of accident or injury!
Starting the engineGeneral
You can only start the engine only using an original ignition key.
Place the gearshift lever into neutral (or place the selector lever to the position P or
N in the case of an automatic gearbox) and put on the handbrake firmly before starting
the engine.

Before starting, it is necessary to depres s the clutch pedal and to hold it pressed
until the engine starts. If you start the engi ne without depressing the clutch pedal, the
engine does not start and a message is show n in the display of the instrument cluster
to remind you of th e necessity to depress the clutch pedal.

Let go of the key as soon as the engine starts otherwise there may be damage to
the starter.
The engine running noises may louder at first be louder for a short time after starting
the cold engine until oil pressure can be built up in the hydraulic valve clearance
compensation. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem.
If the engine does not start ...
You can use the battery of anothe r vehicle as a jump-start aid page 228.
It is only possible to tow-start vehicles fitt ed with a manual gearbox. The tow-starting
distance must not be more than 50 metres page 231.
WARNING

Never run the engine in non ventilated or enclosed areas. The exhaust gases
of the engine contain besides the odorless and colourless carbon monoxide a


The brake booster only operates when the engine is running. Greater phys-
ical effort for braking is required when en gine is switched off. Because if you do
not stop as normal, this can cause an accident and severe injuries.Caution
you should not switch the engine off right away at the end of your journey after the
engine has been operated for a lengthy period at high loads but should be allowed it
to run at idling speed for about 2 minutes. This prevents any accumulation of heat
when the engine is switched off.
Note

The radiator fan may continue running fo r a further 10 minutes or so after the
engine and the ignition have been switched off. The coolant fan may, however, also
switch on again after some time if the co olant temperature rises because of an accu-
mulation of heat in the engine or if the engine is warm and the engine compartment is
additionally heated by strong sunlight.

This is why particular care is required when carrying out any work in the engine
compartment  page 204, “Working in the engine compartment”.
Shifting (manual gearbox)
Shift into reverse only when the vehicle is stationary. Depress the clutch pedal and hold
it fully depressed. Wait a mo ment before engaging reverse gear in order to avoid any
shift noises.
The reversing lights will come on once reverse gear is engaged, provided the ignition is
on.
WARNING
Never engage the reverse gear when driving - risk of accident!
Note

One should not lay the hand on the shift lever while driving the vehicle. The pres-
sure of the hand will be transferred to the gearshift forks in the gearbox. This can, over
a period of time, lead to early wear of the gearshift forks.

Depress the clutch pedal full y when changing gears, in order to avoid unnecessary
wear and damage.
HandbrakeApplying the handbrake– Pull the handbrake lever up fully.

Activating
The parking aid is activated automatically when
reverse gear is engaged and the igni-
tion is turned on. This is confirmed by a brief acknowledgement signal.
Deactivating
The parking aid is deactivated by removing the reverse gear.
WARNING

The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
it is always the driver's re sponsibility to take care when parking the vehicle or
carrying out similar manoeuvres.

You should therefore satisfy yourself, befo re reversing, that there is no small
obstacle, such as a rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., behind your vehicle.
Such an obstacle might not be within the range detected by the sensors.

Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of the parking aid. Thus, these objects or
people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the sensors of the parking
aid.Note

The parking aid does not operate if you are towing a trailer (applies to models
which feature a factory-fitted towing device*).

If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after switching the ignition on and
engaging reverse gear, and there is no obstac le close to your vehicle, this indicates a
system fault. Have the fault rectified by a specialist workshop.

The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to operate
properly.
Front and rear parking aid*The parking aid provides a warning of obstacles in front and behind the
vehicle.Fig. 110 Activating the parking aid / detection range of the front sensorsThe audible parking aid determines the distan ce between the front or rear bumper and
an obstacle with the aid of ultrasound sensors. The sensors are integrated in the front
and rear bumper. The signal tones for the fr ont parking aid sound higher as standard
than for the rear parking aid. The tones of the parking aid can be adapted in the menu
of the information display* page 26.
Range of sensors
The distance warning begins at a distance of about 120°cm from the obstacle in front
of the vehicle (area fig. 110 ) and about 160 cm from the obstacle behind the
vehicle (area ) page 112, fig. 109 . The interval between the warning signals
becomes shorter as the clearance is reduced.
A continuous tone sounds from a distance of approx. 30 cm (area ) - danger area.
From this moment on do not continue driving! If the vehicle is equipped with a
factory-fitted towing device*, the border of the danger area starts - continuous tone -
5 cm further behind the vehicle. The vehicle can be extended through an installed
detachable towing device.
On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted radio* or navigation system*, the distance
to the obstruction is shown graphically in the display. On vehicles with a factory-fitted
towing device, the rear sensors are deactivated when towing a trailer. The driver is
informed about this by a graphic display (vehic le towing a trailer) in the radio* or the
navigation* display. The radio* or navigation system*, which is factory-fitted, can be


The external sound source of the park assist and the parking aid can be
disruptively influenced and under unfavourable conditions, objects or people
cannot be recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.Caution

If other vehicles are parked behind or on the kurb, the park assist guides your
ve hicle be yond the kurb or onto it. Make s ure that the whee ls or the whe el rims of yo ur
vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.

You should satisfy yourself before parking that there is no small obstacle, such as a
rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., in front or behind your vehicle. Such an obstacle
might not be within the range detected by the sensors.

Under certain circumstances, surfaces or st ructures of certain objects such as wire
mesh fences, powder snow etc..., ca nnot be recognised by the system.

The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depends on the
circumference of the wheels. The system does not function correctly if your vehicle is
mounted with wheels of non-permissible size, snow chains or a temporary spare
wheel (in order to reach the nearest workshop). If the tyres other than those excepted
by the manufacturer are mounted, the resulting position of the vehicle in the parking
space can differ slightly. The parking assistant system automatically performs the
correction of the wheel circumference when driving.

The accuracy of the evaluation for the parking space can be influenced by the
incorrectly determined outside temperature if the later is influenced by the thermal
radiation of the engine i.e for stop and go in a traffic jam.

In order to avoid damaging th e sensors while cleaning with high-pressure cleaners
or steam jets, the sensors must only be directly sprayed for short periods while a
minimum distance of 10 cm must be observed.Note

A component of the park assist is the front and rear parking aid*.

The electronic stability programme (ESP*) must always be switched on for the
parking procedure.

Only the front parking aid operates if you are towing a trailer (applies only to
models which feature a factory-fitted towing device*). This is why it is not possible to
park backwards with the help of the park assist when towing a trailer.

The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to operate
properly.
