Notes
G
WARNING
Follow the recommended settings for heat-
ing and cooling given on the following pages. Otherwise the windows could fog up,
impairing visibility and endangering you
and others.
The air conditioning improves the level of
comfort when driving at high outside tem-
peratures by cooling and dehumidifying
the air.
Nearly all dust particles, pollutants, are
filtered out by an integrated particle fil-
ter before outside air enters the passenger compartment through the air distribution
system. It also operates when the air con-
ditioning is switched off and you have
switched on the blower.
The dehumidification of the air by the air
conditioner prevents the windows from
misting up when the outside air humidity
is high.
This effect can also be used to defrost the
windows. For this, make sure, in addition
to the air conditioner, that the heater is on the maximum setting.
The air conditioner only works when:
R the ignition is switched on
R the blower is switched on
R the driver's door is closed
Maximum effectiveness is achieved if you
drive with the windows closed.
If the operating temperature of the
high‑voltage battery is too high, the
high‑voltage battery is cooled by the air
conditioner. When the air conditioner
switches on, the cooling output in the vehi- cle's interior is reduced as a result. The
temperature in the vehicle's interior may
rise briefly.
If the air conditioner is not switched on,
the compressor of the air conditioner and
the vehicle's cooling fan are switched on
automatically. This cools the high‑voltage
battery but not the vehicle's interior. When
the high‑voltage battery reaches the nom-
inal temperature again, the air condi-
tioner switches off automatically. Air conditioning with climate control

The range of the vehicle is decreased
when the air conditioner is switched on.
i In warmer weather, ventilate the
passenger compartment for a short
period of time before utilizing the air
conditioning.

G
WARNING
When operating the heating or air condi-
tioning 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 distribu-
tion 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 condition-
ing 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 Air conditioning with climate control

WARNING
Never drive with iced up or fogged win-
dows. Visibility will be significantly
impaired. Impaired visibility could
endanger yourself and others. This may
prevent you from observing the traffic con- ditions, thereby causing an accident.
The best defrosting of windows is achieved
if the ice is completely removed from the
windows manually with an ice scraper
before driving off.
Also use the "Air conditioning before
start" function (Y page 90).

X Turn air distribution control Bto posi-
tion z.
X Push temperature control Afully up. Rear window defroster
The rear window defroster serves to de-ice
the rear window quickly and clear the view if the rear window is fogged.
The rear window defroster uses a large
amount of power. To keep battery drain to a
minimum, switch off the rear window
defroster as soon as the rear window is
clear. The rear window defroster is auto-
matically deactivated after approximately 10 minutes of operation. X
Make sure the key is in starter switch
position 1.
X Switching on: Press rear window
defroster switch :.
The indicator lamp in rear window
defroster switch :comes on.
X Switching off: Press rear window
defroster switch :once more.
The indicator lamp in rear window
defroster switch :goes out. Air recirculation mode
Switch to air recirculation mode to prevent unpleasant odors from entering the vehicle
from the outside (e.g. before driving
through a tunnel). This setting cuts off the
intake of outside air and recirculates the
air in the passenger compartment. G
WARNING
When the air recirculation mode is
switched on, windows can fog on the inside immediately. Fogged windows impair vis-
ibility, endangering you and others. If the
windows begin to fog on the inside, switch- ing off the air recirculation mode imme-
diately should clear interior window fog-
ging. If interior window fogging persists,
make sure the air conditioning is switched on, turn air distribution control Bto
position zand increase the air volume
using air volume control :.

WARNING
To help avoid personal injury during a col- lision or sudden maneuver, exercise care
when storing objects in the vehicle. Put
luggage or cargo in the cargo compartment if possible. Do not pile luggage or cargo
higher than the seat backrests.

WARNING
Transport heavy or hard objects in the
cargo compartment, not in the passenger
compartment.
Always fasten items being carried as
securely as possible using fastening mate- rials appropriate for the weight and size of
the load.
In an accident, during hard braking or sud-
den maneuvers, loose items may be thrown
around inside the vehicle, causing injury
to vehicle occupants. G
WARNING
To help avoid personal injury during a col- lision or sudden maneuver, exercise care
when storing objects in the vehicle. Put
luggage or cargo in the cargo compartment if possible. Do not pile luggage or cargo

weight of the vehicle including tools,
installed accessories, passengers, and
luggage/cargo must never exceed the load
limit and the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) for your vehicle as specified on the placard located on the driver’s door B‑pil-
lar (Y page 214). In addition, the load must
be distributed in such a way so that the
weight on each axle never exceeds the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for the front and
