Selecting the switch-on time for the
auxiliary heating* This function is only available if the vehicle
has an auxiliary heating system.
The
Auxiliary heating function allows you
to select three switch-on times. You can set
the exact switch-on time using the other func-
tions in the Heatersubmenu.
You can switch off the auxiliary heating by
using the remote control or the auxiliary heat-
ing button on the centre console.
The auxiliary heating is switched off automat-
ically after 50 minutes. This time can be
changed. To do this, visit a qualified specialist
workshop, e.g. a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre. G
Risk of poisoning
Exhaust fumes are produced when the aux-
iliary heating is in operation. Inhaling these
exhaust fumes can be poisonous. You
should therefore switch off the auxiliary heating in confined spaces without an
extraction system, e.g. a garage.
G
Risk of fire
When operating the auxiliary heating, parts
of the vehicle may become very hot, and
highly inflammable material such as fuels
could be ignited. Operating the auxiliary
heating is thus prohibited at filling stations
or when your vehicle is being refuelled. You
must therefore switch off the auxiliary heat-
ing at filling stations.
You can call up the Auxiliary heating.
