Parking climate
*
The climate of the car's passenger compartment can be preconditioned or maintained while thecar is parked.
Preconditioning and climate comfort retention are con- trolled from the Parking climate tab in the centre dis-
play's climate view.
PreconditioningPreconditioning of the car before driving reduces wear and energy needs during a journey. Preconditioning can use direct start or be set viathe timer. The function utilises several systems in different cases: •
The parking heater
*, in a cold climate, warms
up both the passenger compartment and the engine.
• The ventilation, in a hot climate, cools thepassenger compartment to the current outertemperature.
NOTE
During preconditioning of the passenger compartment, the car works to reach comforttemperature and not the temperature set inthe climate control system.
Climate comfort retentionThe climate in the car's passenger compartment can be maintained while the car is parked, e.g. ifthe engine needs to be switched off but thedriver or passenger(s) wants to remain in the carand maintain the level of climate comfort. Starting climate comfort retention is only possible via direct start.

Heater*
The heater helps the engine and passenger compartment reach the correct temperaturebefore and during driving.
The heater has two subfunctions: • Parking heater - heats the engine and pas- senger compartment, if necessary, when the parking climate control's preconditioning
* is
activated.
• Additional heater - heats the passenger compartment and engine, if necessary, dur-ing driving.
The heater is fuel-driven and is fitted in the frontright-hand wheel housing.
This symbol illuminates in the driverdisplay when the heater is active.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be emitted from the right-hand front wheel hous-ing and a low hum may be heard. A tickingsound from the fuel pump may also be heardfrom the rear section of the car. This is per-fectly normal.
Battery and chargingThe heater is powered by the car's starter battery. If the charge level of the starter battery is too low,then the heater is switched off automatically andthe driver display shows a message.
NOTE
Make sure that there is enough charge in the battery if the heater needs to be used.
Fuel and refuelling 6
Warning label on fuel filler flap.
The heater uses fuel from the car's normal fuel tank. If the car is parked on a steep hill, the front of the car should point downhill to ensure that there is asupply of fuel to the heater. If the level in the fuel tank is too low then theheater is switched off automatically and the driverdisplay shows a message.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's normal fuel tank if the heater needs to beused.
WARNING
Fuel which spills out could be ignited. Switch off the fuel-driven heater before starting torefuel. Check in the driver display that the heater is switched off. The heat symbol is shown whenit is operating.

Parking heater *
The parking heater helps the passenger com- partment reach the correct temperature beforedriving.
The parking heater is one of two subfunctions of the car's heater. The heater is fitted in the frontright-hand wheel housing.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be emitted from the right-hand front wheel hous-ing and a low hum may be heard. A tickingsound from the fuel pump may also be heardfrom the rear section of the car. This is per-fectly normal.
The parking heater starts automatically when extra heat is required if the parking climate con- trol's preconditioning * is activated.
It is then switched off automatically when the right temperature, the time of a set timer or theheater's maximum running time has beenreached. The heater's maximum running time is 40 minutes.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's normal fuel tank if the heater needs to beused. Make sure that there is enough charge in the starter battery if the heater needs to be used.
IMPORTANT
Repeated use of the parking heater combined with short journeys may discharge the batteryand impair starting. If the heater is used on a regular basis, then the car should be driven for the same amountof time that the heater is used in order toensure that the car's battery is recharged withthe same amount of energy as consumed bythe parking heater. The parking heater is usedfor a maximum of 40 minutes each time.
WARNING
Do not use preconditioning if the car is equip- ped with a heater *:
• In unventilated spaces indoors. Exhaust gases are emitted if the heater starts.
• In locations with combustible or flamma-ble material nearby. Fuel, gas, long grass,sawdust, etc. may ignite.
• When there is a risk that the heater

Additional heater *
The additional heater helps the passenger com- partment and engine reach the correct tempera-ture while driving.
The additional heater is one of two subfunctions of the car's heater. The heater is fitted in thefront right-hand wheel housing.
NOTE
When the heater is running, smoke may be emitted from the right-hand front wheel hous-ing and a low hum may be heard. A tickingsound from the fuel pump may also be heardfrom the rear section of the car. This is per-fectly normal.
The additional heater starts and is controlled automatically when heating is required while thecar is being driven. It then switches off automatically when the car is switched off.
NOTE
Make sure there is enough fuel in the car's normal fuel tank if the heater needs to beused. Make sure that there is enough charge in the starter battery if the heater needs to be used.

Speed-dependent steering force Speed related power steering causes the steer- ing wheel force to increase with the speed of thecar in order to give the driver enhanced sensitiv-ity.
On motorways the steering feels firmer. When parking and at low speed steering is light andrequires only a slight effort.
NOTE
In certain situations the power steering may become too hot and then needs to be tempo-rarily cooled - during this time the powersteering operates with reduced power andturning the steering wheel may then be per-ceived to be slightly heavier. In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer- ing assistance, the driver display shows amessage.
Change the steering force level *To select the steering force level, go to the "Drive modes" section and see the description at thealternative INDIVIDUAL under the heading"Selectable drive modes". For the car models without a drive mode control with its INDIVIDUAL option, the selection ofsteering force is instead made via the centre dis-play's top view and the following search path:

Roll Stability Control Roll Stability Control (RSC) is a stabiliser sys- tem that minimises the risk of overturning, forexample during sudden evasive manoeuvres or ifthe car skids.
The RSC system registers if and how much the car's lateral inclination changes. This informationis used to calculate the risk of the car overturn-ing. If the car is at risk, its electronic stability con-trol system engages, the engine torque isreduced and one or more wheels are braked untilthe car has regained its stability.
WARNING
Under normal driving conditions, the RSC sys- tem improves the car's road safety, but thismust not be taken as a reason to increasespeed. Always follow the normal precautionsfor safe driving.
