WARNING
Poor visibility through the door windows,
windscreen and rear window increases the
risk of collisions and accidents which can
cause serious injuries.
x Keep all door windows, the windscreen
and the rear window free from ice, snow
and condensation to maintain perf
ect
visibility.
x Adjust the heating, air conditioning and
rear window heating to prevent conden-
sation from forming on the windows.
x Only set off once all windows are clear.
x Use air recirculation mode for a short
period only. Condensation could other-
wise form very quickly on the windows,
greatly reducing visibility.
x Switch off the air recirculation mode
when it is no longer required. NOTICE
Food, medicine and other items that are sen-
sitiv
e to heat or cold could be either dam-
aged or rendered useless by the air flowing
out of the vents.
x Never leave food, medicines or other tem-
perature-sensitive objects in front of the
vents. NOTICE
If the air conditioning system is not working,
switch the air conditioning system off imme-
diately and ha

ve it checked by a qualified
workshop. This can help to prevent secondary
damage. Overview of functions
Please refer to and at the start of
the chapter on page 120.
Some functions of the air conditioning sys-
tem and menus in the Inf

otainment system as well as an air conditioning block for the
rear seats depend on the equipment le

vel.
In the Infotainment system Open the air conditioning settings in
the Infotainment system.
In the Infotainment system: upper screen
edge
Switch the air conditioning system on
and off.
In the Infotainment system: lower screen
edge Select temperature. Depending on the
equipment level, you can set the tem-
perature directly in the Infotainment
system or use the touch sliders be-
neath the Infotainment system. The
selected temperatures are displayed
at the bottom of the screen in the In-
fotainment system.
The temperatures set for the rear row
of seats are shown on the displays for
the air conditioning block for the rear
seats. Adopt temperature settings of driver
side f
or all seats. Switch the seat heating on and off

If REAR LOCK is active in the Infotainment
system, the rear air conditioning block
cannot be operated. NOTICE
Do not apply stickers over the heating ele-
ments from the inside to pre
vent damage to
the rear window heating. Air recirculation mode
Please refer to and at the start of
the chapter on page 120.
When air recirculation mode is switched on,
no fresh air enters the v

ehicle interior.
Switching manual air recirculation mode on
and off
1. Touch on the Infotainment system.

Touch in the Infotainment system.
Automatic air recirculation mode of Clima-
tronic
Automatic air recirculation mode supports
you within the system limits by temporarily
switching the fresh air supply on or off if the
fresh air entering the v

ehicle is of poor quali-
ty. The system cannot detect unpleasant
odours.
1. Touch on the Infotainment system.

ehicle

x
Do not place any damp or wet objects or
items of clothing on the seat.
x Do not spill any liquids on the seat. NOTICE
x To a void damaging the heating elements,
do not kneel on the seats and do not apply
sharp pressure at a single point to the seat
cushion and backrest.
x Liquids, sharp objects and insulating mate-
rials, such as a protective cover or child
seat, may damage the seat heating.
x If an odour develops, immediately switch
off the seat heating and have it checked
by a qualified workshop.
x If the original seat covers are replaced
with another material, the seat heating
can overheat or the seat heating function
may be restricted. To save energy, switch off the seat
heating as soon as possible. Steering wheel heating
Please refer to and at the start of
the chapter on page 120.
The steering wheel heating can function only

Adapt your speed and distance from the
v ehicles ahead to suit visibility, weather,
road and traffic conditions.
x Always switch CCS off after use to avoid
unintentional speed control.
x It is dangerous to use a set speed that is
too high for the prevailing road, traffic
or weather conditions. Operating the Cruise Control

Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC)
Introduction to the topic
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) main-
tains a constant speed that you ha
ve set.
If the vehicle approaches a vehicle in
front, the ACC automatically adapts the
speed so that a distance you have selec-
ted is maintained.
Does the vehicle have ACC?
The vehicle is equipped with ACC if you can
adjust settings for ACC in the Assist systems
menu in the Infotainment system.
Speed range
You can set the speed between 20 km/h
(15 mph) and the maximum speed.
Driving with ACC
You can override the active ACC system at
any time. Cruise control will be stopped if you
brake. If you accelerate, cruise control will be
interrupted while you are accelerating and
then resumed.
The intervention by the ACC system is less
dynamic when towing a trailer.
Driver intervention prompt
If automatic deceleration by the ACC
system is not sufficient or the system
limits have been reached, the ACC
system will request you to also brake
by a corresponding message on the
instrument cluster. In addition, the
red warning lamp lights up and an
acoustic warning is given. Take over
control of the vehicle and be prepared
to brake.
Radar sensor
ACC detects driving situations using a radar
sensor at the front of the vehicle. The range of the radar sensor is up to approximately
160 m (

around 520 ft). WARNING
The intelligent ACC technology cannot
o
vercome the laws of physics, and func-
tions only within the limits of the system.
Never let the extra convenience tempt you
into taking safety risks when driving. Care-
less or unintentional use of ACC can cause
accidents or injuries. The system is not
a substitute for the full concentration of
the driver.
x Adapt your speed and the distance from
the vehicles ahead to suit visibility,
weather, road and traffic conditions.
x Never use the ACC in poor visibility, on
steep or winding roads, or on slippery
road surfaces, e.g. due to snow, ice,
moisture or loose chippings, or when
roads are flooded.
x Never use the ACC offroad or on unsur-
faced roads. The ACC is designed for use
on surfaced roads only.
x Take control of the vehicle immediately
if requested to do so by a prompt on the
instrument cluster display or if the speed
reduction by ACC is not sufficient.
x Brake if the vehicle starts moving unin-
tentionally, e.g. after a driver interven-
tion prompt.
x Be prepared to control the speed your-
self at all times. Special driving situations
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 151.
Predictiv

e cruise control system
If the vehicle is equipped with the Dynamic
Road Sign Display function and an Infotain-
ment system with navigation, ACC can pre-
dictively adapt the vehicle speed to detected
speed limits and the course of the road ahead
Adaptive Cruise Control 151
11A012720AB

If you adjust the announced speed excessive-
ly, predictiv
e cruise control will be termina-
ted.
If a speed limit is detected, the predic-
tive cruise control function will adjust
the stored speed even if ACC is deactivated.
However, speed regulation will not take
place.
If the current speed significantly ex-
ceeds a speed limit detected by the
Dynamic Road Sign Display function, a warn-
ing will appear on the instrument cluster dis-
play.
When you join a motorway without
a speed limit, the recommended speed
will automatically be stored as the desired
speed. If a higher speed has previously been
stored on a motorway without a speed limit,
this will be adopted instead of the recom-
mended speed. Troubleshooting
Please refer to at the start of the chap-
ter on page 156.

e cruise
control is currently not available or is not
