after a time delay.
If outside temperatures drop to 3 °C, the °C flashes in the Driver
Information Centre (DIC) as a
warning for icy road conditions. This
will continue to flash until
temperatures rise above 3 °C.
9 Warning
The road surface may already be
icy even though the display
indicates a few degrees above 0
°C.

Air conditioning system
In addition to the heating and
ventilation system, the air
conditioning system has controls for:
A/C:cooling4:air recirculation
Heated seats 3 46.
Cooling (A/C)
Press A/C to switch on cooling.
Activation is indicated by illumination
of the LED in the button. 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) the air 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. Activated cooling
may inhibit an Autostop.
Stop-start system 3 119.
Notice
Air conditioning performance is
reduced when ECO mode has been
activated 3 114.
Air recirculation system 4
Press 4 to activate air recirculation
mode. Activation is indicated by
illumination of the LED in the button.Press 4 again to deactivate air
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 vehicle
occupants to feel drowsy.
In warm and very humid ambient air conditions, the windscreen might mist up from outside when cold air is
directed towards it. If windscreen
mists up from outside, activate
windscreen wiper and avoid the use
of air distribution settings J and V.
Maximum cooling
Briefly open the windows so that hot air can disperse quickly.
● Cooling A/C on.
● Air recirculation system 4 on.
● Set air distribution control to M.

Cooling A/C
The air conditioning system cools and dehumidifies (dries) the air when
outside temperature is above a
specific level. Therefore
condensation may form and drip from
under the vehicle.
Notice
Air conditioning performance is
reduced when ECO mode has been
activated 3 114.
If no cooling or drying is required
press A/C OFF to switch the cooling
system off, thus saving fuel. LED
illuminates in the button.
To return to Automatic mode: Press
AUTO button.

Activate or deactivate manual air recirculation mode with u. LED
illuminates in the button when
activated.

Climate control1079Warning
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 vehicle
occupants to feel drowsy.
To return to Automatic mode: Press
AUTO button.
Rear heating system
The rear passenger compartment
heating fan assists air flow to the rear
passenger compartment via the rear
air vents.
The rate of air flow is determined by
the fan. Air temperature is controlled
using the temperature control on the
instrument panel.
Rear air conditioning system
The rear air conditioning system is
actuated in conjunction with the front
passenger compartment air
conditioning system.
Rear air conditioning fan switch
The rear air conditioning fan assists
air flow to the rear passenger
compartment via the rear air vents.
Switch on the fan while the air
conditioning system is operating to
allow cooled and dehumidified (dried) air to be distributed.
The rate of air flow is determined by
the fan.

112Climate controlAir vents
Adjustable air vents At least one air vent must be open
while cooling is on, in order to prevent
the evaporator from icing up due to lack of air movement.9 Warning
Do not attach any objects to the
slats of the air vents. Risk of
damage and injury in case of an
accident.
Centre air vents
To open or close the centre air vents
and direct the flow of air, tilt the slats
up or down and turn the adjuster
wheel left or right.
Side air vents
To open or close the side air vents, tilt the slats up or down.
Direct the flow of air by rotating the
vents.
Depending upon the position of the
temperature control, air will be
directed into the vehicle via the side
air vents.
Rear air vents
Depending on vehicle, additional
adjustable air vents are located in the
rear passenger compartment.
Fixed air vents Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door
windows, in the foot wells and,
depending on vehicle, in the rear
passenger compartment.
Glovebox cooler
The air conditioning system can also
keep the contents of the glovebox
cool.

Driving and operating117Some functions, e.g. Infotainment
system, are available for use as soon
as you enter the vehicle.
Accessory power mode
Press START/STOP without
operating clutch or brake pedal to
enable further electrical functions to
be operated.
Engine start
Operate clutch and brake pedal and press START/STOP . Release button
after starting procedure begins.
If a gear is engaged, the engine can
be started only by operating the clutch
pedal and pressing the
START/STOP button.
In some cases, it may be necessary
to move the steering wheel slightly
while pressing START/STOP to
release the steering wheel lock. A
corresponding message appears in
the DIC 3 90.
At very low outside temperatures (e.g. below -10 °C) keep the clutch pedal
depressed while pressing
START/STOP until the engine starts.If one of the starting conditions is not
applied, a corresponding message
appears in the DIC 3 90.
Vehicle messages 3 91.
Engine stop
Electronic key must be inside the
vehicle, either in the card reader or the front passenger compartment.
With the vehicle stationary, press
START/STOP to stop the engine. The
steering wheel lock is engaged when
the driver's door is opened and the
vehicle is locked.
If the electronic key is not detected, a
corresponding message appears in
the DIC 3 90. In this event, press
START/STOP for 2 seconds to stop
the engine.
Central locking system 3 23.
Retained power off
Press START/STOP for more than
two seconds; the engine is stopped
while some functions, e.g.
Infotainment system, are available for
use for approx. 10 minutes.These functions stop working when
the driver's door is opened and the vehicle is locked.
Notice
Always take the electronic key with
you when exiting the vehicle.
The electronic key being left in the
card reader is indicated by a warning chime 3 92 and a message in the
Driver Information Centre (DIC)
3 91 when the driver's door is
opened.9 Danger
Never leave an electronic key
inside the vehicle when children or animals are left in the vehicle, to
avoid unintended operation of
windows, doors or engine. Risk of
fatal injury.
Fault
If the engine cannot be started, the
cause may be one of the following:
● Fault in electronic key.
● Electronic key out of reception range.

122Driving and operatingParking9Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply parking brake without pressing release
button. Apply as firmly as
possible on a downhill slope or
uphill slope. Depress foot brake 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. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
● Lock the vehicle 3 23
● Activate the anti-theft locking system 3 33 and anti-theft alarm
system 3 35.Engine exhaust9 Danger
Engine exhaust gases contain
poisonous carbon monoxide,
which is colourless and odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust gases enter the interior
of the vehicle, open the windows.
Have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop.
Avoid driving with an open load
compartment, otherwise exhaust
gases could enter the vehicle.
Diesel particle filter
The diesel particle filter system filters
harmful soot particles out of the
exhaust gases. The system includes
a self-cleaning function that runs
automatically during driving without
any notification.
The filter is cleaned by periodically
burning off the soot particles at high
temperature. This process takes
place automatically under set driving

Vehicle care153● Switch on the ignition (key toposition 2) for 5 seconds at a
time.
