Exercise care when using the passenger-
side exterior rear view mirror. The mirror
surface is convex (outwardly curved surface
for a wider field of view). Objects in mirror
are closer than they appear. Check your
interior rear view mirror and glance over
your shoulder to determine whether any
vehicles are in the ’blind spot’ of your field
of vision, before changing lanes.

Exterior rear view mirror heating
This feature is only available on the model
passion and BRABUS and in conjunction
with power exterior rear view mirrors.
After switching on the rear window
defroster, the exterior rear view mirrors
will be heated automatically. This
prevents icing up the exterior rear view
mirrors and also creates a clear view when
the exterior rear view mirrors have fogged
up.
If the rear window defroster is
automatically deactivated after
approximately 10 minutes of operation, the
exterior rear view mirror heating also
deactivates.
XMake sure the key is in starter switch

Seat belts
Fastening the seat belts
GWarning!
Always fasten your seat belt before driving.
Always make sure all of your passengers are
properly restrained.
Failure to wear and properly fasten and
position your seat belt greatly increases
your risk of injuries and their likely
severity in an accident. You and your
passenger should always wear seat belts.
If you are ever in an accident, your injuries
can be considerably more severe without
your seat belt properly buckled.
Without your seat belt buckled, you are
much more likely to hit the interior of the
vehicle or be ejected from it. You can be
seriously injured or killed.
In the same crash, the possibility of injury
or death is lessened if you are properly
wearing your seat belt. Air bags can only
protect you if you are properly wearing
your seat belt.
GWarning!
Children 12 years old and under must be
seated and properly secured in an
appropriately sized infant restraint,
toddler restraint, or booster seat
recommended for the size and weight of the
child. For additional information, see
“Children in the vehicle”.
A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries
is significantly increased if the child
restraints are not properly secured in the
62Seat belts>> Controls.

Notes on HVAC
GWarning!
Follow the recommended settings for
heating and cooling given on the following
pages. Otherwise the windows could fog up,
impairing visibility and endangering you
and others.
Air conditioning with climate control*
The air conditioning improves the level of
comfort when driving at high outside
temperatures by cooling and
dehumidifying the air.
Nearly all dust particles, pollutants, are
filtered out by an integrated particle
filter before outside air enters the
passenger compartment through the air
distribution system. It also operates when
the air conditioning is switched off and
you have switched on the blower.
The air conditioning only works when the
engine is running and the blower is
switched on. Maximum effectiveness is
achieved if you drive with the windows
closed.
i In warmer weather, ventilate the
passenger compartment for a short
period of time before utilizing the air
conditioning.

Adjusting air vents
GWarning!
When operating the heating or air
conditioning with climate control*, the
air that enters the passenger compartment
through the air vents can be very hot or very
cold (depending on the set temperature).
This may cause burns or frostbite on
unprotected skin in the immediate area of
the air vents. Always keep sufficient
distance between unprotected parts of the
body and the air vents. If necessary, use the
air distribution control to direct the air
to air vents in the vehicle interior that are
not in the immediate area of unprotected
skin.
To make sure the heating or air
conditioning with climate control* works
properly, please observe the following:
R Keep the air intake grill free from
deposits, e.g. ice or snow, to ensure that
