superimposed over the currently
displayed menu.
The electronic climate control system
is only fully operational when the
engine is running.
Heating will not be fully effective until
the engine has reached normal
operating temperature.
Automatic mode AUTO
The system automatically controls the
fan speed, air delivery, air
conditioning, and recirculation in
order to heat or cool the vehicle to the desired temperature.
When the AUTO indicator light is on,
the system is in full automatic
operation.
If the air delivery mode, fan speed,
recirculation, or air conditioning
setting is adjusted, the AUTO
indicator turns off.
To improve fuel efficiency and to cool
the vehicle faster, recirculation may
be automatically selected in warmweather. The recirculation light will
not come on. Press 4 to select
recirculation; press it again to select
outside air.
To turn off the system, press power m.
Basic setting for maximum comfort: ● Press AUTO. The LED in the
button illuminates to indicate activation.
● Open all air vents to allow optimised air distribution in
Automatic mode.

Temperature preselection Set temperature to the desired value.
It is indicated on the display in the
temperature control.
For reasons of comfort, change
temperature only in small increments.
If the minimum temperature Lo is set,
the climate control system runs at
maximum cooling, if cooling A/C is
active.

98Climate controlIf the maximum temperature Hi is set,
the climate control system runs at maximum heating.
Recommended temperature is 22 °C .
Notice

Air recirculation system 4
Press 4 to activate air recirculation
mode. The LED in the button
illuminates to indicate activation.
Press 4 again to deactivate air
recirculation mode.9 Warning
Driving with recirculation mode for
a prolonged period of time can
make you sleepy. Periodically turn to the outside air mode for fresh
air.
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. The quality
of the passenger compartment air
deteriorates, which may cause the
vehicle 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 V.
Manual settings Climate control system settings can
be changed by activating the buttons
and rotary knobs as follows.
Changing a setting will deactivate
Automatic mode.

108Driving and operating● The brake vacuum is sufficient.
● The vehicle was driven at least at
walking speed since the last
Autostop.
Otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited.
Certain settings of the climate control
system may inhibit an Autostop. See
"Climate control" chapter for further
information 3 97.
Immediately after motorway driving
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, e.g., the rear window
heating, are disabled or switched into a power saving mode. The fan speed
of the climate control system is
reduced to save power.Restart of the engine by the driverVehicles with manual transmission

Restart of the engine by the stop-
start system
The selector lever must be in neutral
to 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 bonnet is opened.
● The driver's seat belt is unfastened and 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 vehicle is driven at least at walking speed.
● The climate control system requests an engine start.
● The air conditioning is manually switched on.
If the bonnet is not fully closed, a warning message is displayed in the
Driver Information Centre.
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop during restart might be noticeable.
