81WARNING■Do not place anything on the dash panel. These objects might slide or fall
down when driving (when accelerating or cornering) and may distract you
from concentrating on the traffic – risk of accident!■
When driving, ensure that no objects from the centre console or from other
storage compartments can get into the driver's footwell. You would then no
longer be able to apply the brakes or operate the clutch or accelerator pedal –
risk of accident!
■
No objects should be placed in the storage compartments nor in the drinks
holders; the vehicle occupants could be endangered if there is sudden braking
or the vehicle collides with something.
■
Ash and cigarette or cigar stubs must only be discarded in ashtrays!

Please observe the following for the purpose of maintaining good handling char-
acteristics of your vehicle:
›
Distribute loads as evenly as possible. 
81Seats and useful equipment

›Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.›Attach the items of luggage to the lashing eyes or using the nets
» page 82.
In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic en-
ergy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the ve-
hicle is travelling and the weight of the object.
Example: In the event of a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, an object with a
weight of 4.5 kg produces an energy, which corresponds to 20 times its own
weight. This means that it results in a weight of approx. 90 kg “ ”.WARNING■ Store the objects in the boot and attach them to the lashing eyes.■Loose objects can be thrown forward during a sudden manoeuvre or in case
of an accident and can injure the occupants or other road users.■
Loose objects could hit a deployed airbag and injure occupants – danger of
death!
■
Please note that transporting heavy objects alters the handling properties
of the vehicle due to the displacement of the centre of gravity – risk of acci-
dent! The speed and style of driving must be adjusted accordingly.
■
If the items of luggage or objects are attached to the lashing eyes with un-
suitable or damaged lashing straps, injuries can occur in the event of braking manoeuvres or accidents. To prevent items of luggage from moving around,
always use suitable lashing straps which must be firmly attached to the lash-
ing eyes.
■
The transported items must be stowed in such a way that no objects are
able to slip forward on sudden driving or braking manoeuvres – risk of injury!
■
When transporting objects in the luggage compartment that has been en-
larged by folding the rear seats forward, ensure the safety of the passengers transported on the other rear seats » page 162, Correct seated position for
the passengers in the rear seats .
■
If the rear seat next to the folded forward seat is occupied, ensure maxi-
mum safety, e.g. by placing the goods to be transported in such a way that the
seat is prevented from folding back in case of a rear collision.
■
Do not drive with the luggage compartment lid fully opened or slightly ajar
otherwise exhaust gases may get into the interior of the vehicle – risk of poi-
soning!
■
Do not exceed the permissible axle loads and permissible gross weight of
the vehicle – risk of accident!
■
Do not transport people in the boot!
CAUTIONPlease ensure that the heating elements for the rear window heater are not dam-
aged as a result of abrasive objects.
Note
Tyre pressure must be adjusted to the load » page 213, Service life of tyres .

Recirculation
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 91.
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from getting into
the vehicle, e.g. when driving through a tunnel or in a traffic jam.
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle and thenfed back into the interior.
Heating and air conditioning (manual air conditioning)
To turn the recirculation mode on or off, press the Symbol key 
.
The air recirculation mode is automatically turned off by turning the air distribu-
tion control
C
to position 
» Fig. 93 on page 94 or » Fig. 94 on page 94 .
Recirculated air mode can be switched on again from this position by repeatedly
pressing the symbol button 
.
Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
To turn the recirculation mode on, press the Symbol key
 repeatedly until the
indicator light is lit on the left side of the button.
To activate the automatic recirculation mode, press the Symbol key
 repeat-
edly until the indicator light is lit on the right side of the button.
Climatronic has an air quality sensor for the detection of the pollutant concentra-
tion in the sucked-in air.
If a considerable increase in concentration of pollutants is recognised by the air
quality sensor, recirculated air mode will temporarily be switched on.
If the concentration of pollutants decreases to the normal level, the air distribu-tion control is automatically switched off so that fresh air can be guided into the
vehicle interior.
If the air quality sensor does not automatically switch on the recirculated air
mode in the event of an unpleasant odour, you can switch it on yourself by press-
ing the button . The indicator light lights up in the button on the left side.
To
turn off the air recirculation or to deactivate the automatic air recirculations ,
press the  button of press the  symbol button repeatedly until the warning
lights in the button go out.WARNINGNever leave recirculated air mode switched on over a longer period of time, as
“stale air” can cause driver and passenger fatigue, reduce attention levels and
also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases.
Switch off recirculated air mode as soon as the windows start to mist up.
CAUTION
We recommend not smoking in the vehicle when the recirculating air operation is switched on. The smoke sucked from inside the vehicle is deposited on the evap-orator of the air conditioner. This produces a permanent odour when the air con-
ditioning system is operating which can only be eliminated through considerable effort and expense (replacement of compressor).
Note
The automatic air distribution control operates only if the outside temperature is
higher than approx. 2 °C.
