If the minimum temperature Lo is set,
the climate control system runs at
maximum cooling, if cooling A/C is
switched on.
If the maximum temperature Hi is set,
the climate control system runs at
maximum heating.
Notice
If A/C is switched on, reducing the
set cabin temperature can cause the engine to restart from an Autostop or
inhibit an Autostop.

Climate control117Cooling A/C
Press A/C to switch on cooling. The
LED in the button illuminates to
indicate activation. Cooling is only
functional when the engine is running and climate control fan is switched on.
Press A/C again to switch off cooling.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) when outside
temperature is above a specific level. Therefore condensation may form
and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch off the cooling system for fuel
saving reasons.
Manual air recirculation 4
Press 4 to activate the air
recirculation mode. The LED in the
button illuminates to indicate
activation.
Press 4 again to deactivate
recirculation mode.
9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling, the
air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up from inside.
The quality of the passenger
compartment air deteriorates,
which may cause the occupants to
feel drowsy.
In warm and very humid ambient air
conditions, the windscreen may mist
up from outside, when cold air is
directed towards it. If windscreen
mists up from outside, activate
windscreen wiper and deactivate l.

If à is pressed while the engine is in
an Autostop, the engine will restart
automatically.

Air heater
Quickheat is an electric auxiliary air
heater which automatically warms up

quickly.

Climate control119Air vents
Adjustable air vents At least two air vents must be open
while cooling is on.9 Warning
Do not attach any objects to the
slats of the air vents. Risk of
damage and injury in case of an
accident.
Air vents in the instrument panel
Direct the flow of air by tilting and
swivelling the slats.
To close the vent, swivel the slats
inwards.
Outer air vents in the instrument
panel
Direct the flow of air by tilting and
swivelling the slats.
To close the vent, swivel the slats
outwards.
Air vent on top of the instrument
panel
Close air flow by turning the thumb
wheel to the front.
Fixed air vents Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door
windows and in the foot wells.

120Climate controlMaintenanceAir intake
The air intake in front of the
windscreen in the engine
compartment must be kept clear to
allow air intake. Remove any leaves,
dirt or snow.
Cabin air filter
Change filter regulary for maximum
effect.
More frequent passenger
compartment air filter replacement
may be needed, if you drive in areas
with heavy traffic, poor air quality,
areas with high dust levels or which
are sensitive to environmental
allergens.
Passenger compartment air filter
replacement may also be needed if
there is reduced air flow, windows
fogging up, or odors.
Your dealer can help to determine
when it is the right time to replace the
filter.
Air conditioning regularoperation
In order to ensure continuously
efficient performance, cooling must
be operated for a few minutes once a month, irrespective of the weather
and time of year. Operation with
cooling is not possible when the
outside temperature is too low.
Service For optimal cooling performance, it is
recommended to annually check the
climate control system, starting 3
years after initial vehicle registration, including:● functionality and pressure test
● heating functionality
● leakage check
● check of drive belts
● cleaning of condenser and evaporator drainage
● performance check
● cabin air filter check

Driving and operating127During an Autostop, the heating and
brake performance will be
maintained.
Conditions for an Autostop
The stop-start system checks if each
of the following conditions is fulfilled.
● The stop-start system is not manually deactivated.
● The driver's door is closed or the driver's seat belt is fastened.
● The vehicle battery is sufficiently charged and in good condition.
● The engine is warmed up.
● The engine coolant temperature is not too high.
● The engine exhaust temperature is not too high, e.g. after driving
with high engine load.
● The ambient temperature is not too low or too high.
● The climate control system allows an Autostop.
● The brake vacuum is sufficient.● The self-cleaning function of the exhaust filter is not active.
● The vehicle was driven at least at
walking speed since the last
Autostop.
Otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited.
Notice
The Autostop may be inhibited for
several hours after a battery
replacement or reconnection.
Certain settings of the climate control
system may inhibit an Autostop. See
Climate control chapter for more
details 3 111.
If an autostop is temporarily not
available, D flashes green 3 87.
Immediately after driving at a higher
speed an Autostop may be inhibited.
Vehicle battery discharge protection
To ensure reliable engine restarts,
several vehicle battery discharge
protection features are implemented
as part of the stop-start system.Power saving measures
During an Autostop, several electrical
features such as auxiliary electric
heater or rear window heating are
disabled or switched to a power
saving mode. The fan speed of the
climate control system is reduced to
save power.
Restart of the engine by the driver
Vehicles with manual transmission
Depress the clutch pedal without depressing the brake pedal to restart
the engine.
Vehicles with automatic transmission The engine is restarted if
● the brake pedal is released while
the selector lever is in position D
or M
● or the brake pedal is released or the selector lever is in position N
when the selector lever is moved
to position D or M
● or the selector lever is moved to position R.

128Driving and operatingRestart of the engine by the stop-
start system
The selector lever must be in neutralto enable an automatic restart.
If one of the following conditions
occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will be restarted automatically
by the stop-start system:
● The stop-start system is manually deactivated.
● The driver's seat belt is unfastened or the driver's door is
opened.
● The engine temperature is too low.
● The charging level of the vehicle battery is below a defined level.
● The brake vacuum is not sufficient.
● The climate control system requests an engine start.
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop
during the restart might be noticeable.Parking9 Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply the parking brake. Activate the parking
brake without pressing the
release button. Apply as firmly
as possible on a downhill slope
or uphill slope. Depress brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear or set the selector
lever to position P. On an uphill
slope, turn the front wheels
away from the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear or
set the selector lever to position
P . Turn the front wheels
towards the kerb.
● Close the windows.
● Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch or switch off
ignition on vehicles with power
button. Turn the steering wheel until the steering wheel lock is
felt to engage.
● Lock the vehicle with e on the
radio remote control.
Or with electronic key system
press marking on front door
handles 3 22.
● Activate the anti-theft alarm system 3 31.
● The engine cooling fans may run
after the engine has been
switched off 3 176.
Caution
After running at high engine
speeds or with high engine loads,
operate the engine briefly at a low load or run in neutral for
