equipment of your vehicle available at the
time of publication of the Operator's Man- ual. Country-specific differences are pos-
sible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may
not feature all functions described here.
This also applies to safety-relevant sys-
tems and functions.

Exterior lighting
General notes
For reasons of safety, smart recommends that
you drive with the lights switched on even
during the daytime. In some countries, oper-
ation of the headlamps varies due to legal
requirements and self-imposed obligations.

Interior lighting switched off
0085Switches the right-hand reading lamp on/

The interior lighting is switched on when a
door is open: if the corresponding door is
closed correctly the interior lighting goes
out.
Interior lighting control
If the doors are unlocked with the remote con-
trol, the interval timer for the interior
lighting is triggered. The interval timer
restarts when a door is opened.
The front interior lighting and the luggage
compartment light go out gradually.
The interior lighting interval timer is
switched off:
Rif a door remains open, the interior light-
ing switches off after 15 minutes without
dimming
Rif all doors (with additional locking mech-
anism) are closed, the interior lighting
switches off after 15 seconds
Rif all doors (without locking mechanism)
are closed, the interior lighting switches
off after 3 to 4 minutes
Ras soon as the engine is started and for as
long as the engine is running
Replacing bulbs
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Bulbs, lamps and connectors can get very
hot when operating. If you change a bulb,
you could burn yourself on these compo-
nents. There is a risk of injury.
Allow these components to cool down before changing a bulb.
Do not use a bulb that has been dropped or if
its glass tube has been scratched.
The bulb may explode if:
Ryou touch it
Rit is hot
Ryou drop it
Ryou scratch it
Only operate bulbs in enclosed lamps
designed for that purpose. Only fit spare
bulbs of the same type and the specified volt-
age.
Marks on the glass tube reduce the service
life of the bulbs. Do not touch the glass tube
with your bare hands. If necessary, clean the
glass tube when cold with alcohol or spirit
and rub it off with a lint-free cloth.
Protect bulbs from moisture during opera-
tion. Do not allow bulbs to come into contact
with liquids.
Replace only the bulbs listed (
Ypage 70).
If you require assistance replacing bulbs,
consult a qualified specialist workshop.
If the new bulb still does not light up, consult
a qualified specialist workshop.
The daytime driving lights and part of the
rear light clusters of your vehicle are equip-
ped with LED light bulbs. Do not replace these
bulbs yourself. Contact a qualified special-
ist workshop which has the necessary spe-
cialist knowledge and tools to carry out the
work required.
Headlamps and lamps are an important aspect
of vehicle safety. You must therefore make
sure that these function correctly at all
times. Have the headlamp setting checked
regularly.
Overview: changing bulbs/bulb types
You can replace the following bulbs. The bulb
type can be found in the legend.

windshield wiper arm has been folded away
from the windshield/rear window.
Never fold a windshield wiper arm without
a wiper blade back onto the windshield/
rear window.
Hold the windshield wiper arm firmly when
you change the wiper blade. If you release
the wiper arm without a wiper blade and it
falls onto the windshield/rear window, the

Automatic climate control
Below, you can find a number of notes and rec-
ommendations to help you use climate control optimally.
RActivate climate control primarily using
the 0058 button.
RSet the temperature to 72 ‡(22 †).
ROnly use the "Windshield demisting" func-
tion briefly until the windshield is clear
again.
ROnly use air-recirculation mode briefly,
e.g. if there are unpleasant outside odors
or when in a tunnel. The windows could oth-
erwise fog up, since no fresh air is drawn
into the vehicle in air-recirculation
mode.
Operating the climate control systems
Switching the climate control on/off
General notes
When the climate control is switched off, the air supply and air circulation are also
switched off. The windows could mist up.
Therefore, only switch off climate control
briefly.
Switching the sound on/off
XTurn the SmartKey to position 1or 2in the
ignition lock or start the engine
(
Ypage 87).
XTo switch on: press the0058button.

Problems with the rear window defroster
ProblemPossible causes/consequences and0050Solutions
The rear window
defroster has deacti-
vated prematurely or
cannot be activated.The battery has not been sufficiently charged.
XSwitch off any consumers that are not required, e.g. reading
lamps, interior lighting or the seat heating.
When the battery is sufficiently charged, the rear window
defroster can be activated again.
Switching the air-recirculation mode
on/off
General notes
You can deactivate the flow of fresh air tem-
porarily if unpleasant odors are entering the
vehicle from outside or if you are driving
through a tunnel. The air already inside the
vehicle will then be recirculated.
If you switch on air-recirculation mode, the
windows can fog up more quickly, in partic-
ular at low temperatures. Only use air-recir-
culation mode briefly to prevent the windows
from fogging up.
Switching on/off
XStart the engine (Ypage 87).
XTo activate: press theÀbutton.
The indicator lamp above the Àbutton
lights up.
XTo deactivate: press theÀbutton.
or
XPress the 0064button.
or
XPress the 0058button.

goes out.
Setting the air vents
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Very hot or very cold air can flow from the
air vents. This could result in burns or
frostbite in the immediate vicinity of the
air vents. There is a risk of injury.
Make sure that all vehicle occupants always
maintain a sufficient distance to the air
outlets. If necessary, redirect the airflow
to another area of the vehicle interior.
GWARNING
If you spray cleaning products or disin-
fectant into the ventilation system of the
vehicle, this could ignite. There is a risk
of fire.
Never spray these or any other substances
into the ventilation system. Always have
work on the ventilation system carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop.
In order to ensure the direct flow of fresh air
through the air vents into the vehicle inte-
rior, please observe the following notes:
Rkeep the air inlet between the service
cover and the windshield free of blockages,
such as ice, snow or leaves.
Rnever cover the air vents or air intake
grilles in the vehicle interior.
iFor optimum climate control in the vehi-
cle, open the air vents fully.

steering and the brake boosting effect. Youwill require considerably more effort to
steer and brake. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Do not switch off the ignition while driv-
ing.
GWARNING
If the parking brake has not been fully
released when driving, the parking brake
can:
Roverheat and cause a fire
Rlose its hold function.
There is a risk of fire and an accident.
Release the parking brake fully before
driving off.
!Do not warm up the engine with the vehicle
stationary. Drive off immediately. Avoid
high engine speeds and driving at full
throttle until the engine has reached its
operating temperature.
Only shift the automatic transmission to
the desired drive position when the vehi-
cle is stationary.
Where possible, avoid spinning the drive
wheels when pulling away on slippery
roads. You could otherwise damage the
drive train.

Important safety notes
GWARNING
If children are left unsupervised in the
vehicle, they could:
Ropen the doors, thus endangering other
people or road users.
Rget out and disrupt traffic.
Roperate the vehicle's equipment.
Additionally, children could set the vehi-
cle in motion if, for example, they:
Rrelease the parking brake.
Rshift the automatic transmission out of
park position P or shift manual trans-
mission into neutral.
Rstart the engine.
There is a risk of an accident and injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the
SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle.
Never leave children or animals unattended
in the vehicle. Always keep the SmartKey
out of reach of children.
GWARNING
Combustion engines emit poisonous
exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide.
Inhaling these exhaust gases leads to poi-
soning. There is a risk of fatal injury.
Therefore never leave the engine running
in enclosed spaces without sufficient ven- tilation.
GWARNING
Flammable materials introduced through
environmental influence or by animals can
ignite if in contact with the exhaust system
