ing the wipers in service position, ensure that they have not frozen to the windshield. If thewiper arms in service position are raised fromthe windshield, they must be folded backagainst the windshield before activating wiping,washing or rain sensor as well as before depar-ture. This is to prevent scratching the paint onthe hood. CONNECTIONS Electrical outlet – Each 12-volt socket can sup-

tem has been working continuously for a pro- longed period of time, it will be switched off toavoid overload. It can be used again afterapproximately 2 minutes Electromagnetic fields and obstructing objects may interfere with remote key functions . Avoid
storing the remote key near metal objects orelectronic devices, e.g. cell phones, tablets, lap-tops or chargers – preferably no closer than10-15 cm (4-6 in.). INTERIOR OVERVIEW OFF ROAD drive mode is not designed to be
used for normal street driving. With a cold start
, idling speed may be consider-
ably higher than normal for certain engine types. This is done to get the emissions system up tonormal operating temperature as quickly as pos-sible, which minimizes exhaust emissions andprotects the environment. STEERING WHEEL Trip computer - Calculation of driving range
may vary if your driving style changes. PASSENGER COMPARTMENT CLIMATE Heating/cooling cannot be accelerated by choosing a higher/lower temperature than thedesired temperature. Preconditioning - The vehicle's doors and win-
dows should be closed during preconditioning of the passenger compartment. CONNECTIONS Vehicle modem – Please note that the SIM
card used for Internet connection via P-SIM must have a different phone number than theSIM card used by the cellular phone. If the cardshave the same number, calls will not be con-nected correctly to the phone. Use a SIM cardwith a separate phone number for the Internetconnection or a data card that does not handlephone calls and therefore cannot interfere withphone function. Internet - Data (data traffic) is transfered when
using the Internet, which can incur additional costs. Activating data roaming and Wi-Fi hot-spots can incur additional charges. Contact yournetwork operator about data traffic costs. Whendownloading using a phone, pay extra attentionto the data traffic costs. Data downloading can affect other services that
transfer data, e.g. web radio. If the affect on other services is experienced as problematic, thedownload can be interrupted. Alternatively, itmay be appropriate to switch off or cancel otherservices. When downloading using a phone, payextra attention to the data traffic costs. Updating – If the phone's operating system is
being updated, it is possible that the Bluetooth connection will be interrupted. Delete the phonefrom the vehicle and reconnect. USING CONNECTED DEVICES Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
