Steering wheel
Adjusting the steering wheel position

Fig. 67 Below the steering wheel in the steering column trim: lever for mechanical adjustment of the
steering wheel position.

Correct head restraint adjustment
Adjust the head restraint so that its upper edge is at the same height as the top of the head, but not
lower than eye level. Position the back of your head as close to the head restraint as possible.
Head restraint adjustment for small people
Push the head restraint all the way down, even if the head is then located underneath the top edge
of the head restraint. There may be a small gap between the head restraint and backrest in the
lowest position.
Head restraint adjustment for tall people
Push the head restraint up as far as it will go.

WARNING
Driving without head restraints or with incorrectly adjusted head restraints increases the risk of
serious or fatal injuries in the event of an accident or sudden driving or braking manoeuvre.
If a seat is occupied, the head restraint for that seat must be fitted and adjusted correctly.
Each vehicle occupant must adjust the head restraint to suit their body size in order to reduce the
risk of neck injuries in an accident. The upper edge of the head restraint must, as far as possible, be
level with the top of the head, but no lower than eye level. Position the back of your head in the
middle and as close to the head restraint as possible.
Never adjust the head restraint when the vehicle is in motion.

NOTICE
When removing or fitting head restraints, make sure that they do not hit the roof, the front seat
backrest or other vehicle parts. This will prevent damage from occurring.
Adjusting the head restraints

Heating and air conditioning system
Heating, ventilating, cooling
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Front controls 
⇒ Air recirculation mode 
⇒ Seat heating 
⇒ Steering wheel heating 
⇒ Troubleshooting 
The following systems may be installed in the vehicle
Both the manual air conditioning system and Climatronic heat, cool and dehumidify the air. It works
most effectively when the windows and the glass roof are closed. If heat has built up in the vehicle
interior, ventilating the vehicle can speed up the cooling process.
Display of activated functions
Lit up LEDs on rotary knobs and buttons indicate that the function is switched on.

WARNING
Poor visibility through the windows increases the risk of collisions and accidents, which can cause
serious injuries.
Keep all windows free from ice, snow and condensation to maintain good visibility.
Adjust the heating, air conditioning system and rear window heating so that condensation does not
form on the windows.
Only set off once all windows are clear.
Use air recirculation mode for a short period only. If the cooling system is switched off, condensation
can form on the windows very quickly in air recirculation mode and reduce visibility considerably.

Eco driving profile ⇒ Driving profile selection and 4MOTION Active Control .
Avoid driving at full throttle
Never drive the vehicle at its top speed. The drag coefficient increases at excessively high speeds.
This in turn increases the force needed to move the vehicle.
Reduce idling
Pull away immediately with low engine speeds. If you are stopped for a long period, do not allow the
engine to idle but switch it off, e.g. when in a traffic jam or at a railway crossing.
In vehicles with an activated start/stop system, the engine can switch off automatically when the
vehicle is stopping and when the vehicle is stationary ⇒ Start/stop system .
Refuel moderately
A full fuel tank increases the weight of the vehicle. A fuel tank that is half or two thirds of the way
full is sufficient for journeys in urban traffic in particular.
Avoid short journeys
A cold engine has very high fuel consumption. The optimum operating temperature is reached only
after driving a few kilometres. The fuel consumption is above average at very low ambient
temperatures, e.g. in winter ⇒ Fig. 97 . Plan journeys economically and combine short journeys.
Carry out regular maintenance
Regular maintenance is an essential prerequisite for economical driving and increases the service life
of the vehicle.
Observe the tyre pressures
Low tyre pressures does not just mean greater wear, but also increase the rolling resistance of the
tyres and thus the fuel consumption. Use optimised rolling resistance tyres.
Adjust the tyre pressure according to the load. Observe the information on the tyre pressure sticker
⇒ Useful information about wheels and tyres 
Tyre Pressure Loss Indicator or Tyre Pressure Monitoring System ⇒ Tyre monitoring system .
Use low viscosity engine oils
Fully synthetic engine oils with a low viscosity decrease frictional resistance in the engine and are
distributed better and more quickly, especially during cold starts.
Do not drive with unnecessary loads in the vehicle
You can reduce fuel consumption by clearing out the luggage compartment before setting off, for
example by removing empty drink crates or unused child seats.
To keep the vehicle's air resistance as low as possible, remove any add-on parts and equipment such
as ski racks, bicycle racks and roof carriers once you have finished using them.
