74Service indicator
This display reminds the driver when the next routine service
is due.Displaying distance to next service
When you press the service button briefly with the ignition switched on,
the display will show how far the vehicle can be driven before the next service
is due. The query can be made with the engine switched off or in gear up to
speeds of 5 km/h. Every time the igni tion is switched on, the remaining
distance is updated. However, the first time this will be after 500 km.
In new vehicles or following a service, the following display is given for the
first 500 km when the remaining distance until the next service is consulted:
Service reminder
The instrument pane l controls the distance trav elled every day. Calculate the
average of these distances travelled and enable the service reminder suffi-
ciently in advance. The display reverts back to the standard display after about 5 seconds. The
remaining distance to the next service is updated every time the ignition is
switched on, until the service becomes due.
Service due
When a service is due,
SERVICE! will appear in the display immediately after
you switch on the ignition. The display reverts back to the standard display
after about 5 seconds.
Resetting the display
The display is reset by the garage after the service has been carried out. If the
service indicator has not been reset by the specialist garage, please perform
the following steps:
•
Switch the ignition off.
•
Press the service button ⇒fig. 51 and hold while switching on the
ignition. The display will show one of these messages: Service in ----- km or
Service!
•
Now press and hold the reset button until the display shows Service
in ----- km --- days or Service!
The display switches out of the reset mode if you do not press the reset button
within 5 seconds.Note
•
Do not reset the service indicator between services, otherwise the display
will be incorrect.
•
The information in the service indicator remains intact if the battery is
disconnected.
•
The distance to the next service cannot be called up if the system has
detected a Priority 1 fault (red symbol).

Heating, Ventilation and Air conditioning
152Heating, Ventilation and Air conditioning2C-ClimatronicDescription
The climate control is designed to automatically keep the
passenger compartment at the temperature you find most
comfortable at all times of the year.Recommended settings:
– Set the temperature to 22°C (71°F).
– Press the ⇒page 154, fig. 133 button.The following setting quickly provides a comfortable temperature inside the
vehicle. We therefore recommend you do not modify the setting unless you
find this temperature uncomfortable or where circumstances require as such.
The climate control provides heating and ventilation and also cools and
dehumidifies the air inside the vehicle.
The climate control is fully automatic and will constantly maintain the temper-
ature which has been set. To achieve this, the temperature of the air supplied
to the interior, the blower speed (volume of air delivery) and the air distribu-
tion are regulated automatically. The sy stem also takes solar radiation into
account and, therefore, no subsequent manual readjustments are required.
Therefore, automatic mode ⇒ page 155 should be used for the comfort of all
the passengers in virtually all conditions throughout the year.
Please note the following points:
The humidity of the air is automatically reduced when the system cools the
interior of the vehicle. This helps to prevent condensation on the windows. If the humidity and temperature outside the vehicle are high,
condensation
can drip off the evaporator in the air cooling system and form a pool under-
neath the vehicle. This is normal and does not indicate a leak.
If the outside temperature is low, the blower normally only switches to a
higher speed once the coolant has warm ed up sufficiently (this does not
apply to the defrost setting).
In order to achieve maximum engine power, the air conditioning compressor
is temporarily switched off when pulling away from standstill with full throttle.
The compressor also switches off if the coolant temperature is excessively
high to ensure adequate engine cooling under extreme loads.
Pollution filter
The pollution filter (a combined particle filter and activated charcoal filter)
serves as a barrier against impurities in the outside air, including dust and
pollen.
For the climate control to work with maximum efficiency, the pollution filter
element must be replaced at the intervals specified in the Service Schedule.
If the vehicle is driven in areas with a high level of air pollution and the filter
is no longer fully effective, it may be necessary to change the filter element
more frequently.
Caution
•
If you suspect that the climate control system is damaged, switch over to
ECON mode to prevent further damage and have the system checked by a
specialist garage.
•
Repairs to the climate control require specialist knowledge and special
tools. For this reason, please contact a specialist garage if the system is not
working properly.

Automatic mode
Standard setting for all seasons.Switching on automatic mode
– Select a temperature between +18°C (64°F) and +29°C (86°F).
– Press the button
⇒page 154, fig. 133 .The automatic mode maintains a constant temperature inside the vehicle and
dehumidifies the air. Air temperature, air delivery and air distribution are
regulated automatically to reach the desired interior temperature as quickly
as possible, and then to maintain this temperature. The system automatically
compensates for any variations in the outside temperature and for the effect
of direct sunlight.
The automatic temperature regulation only operates at temperature settings
between +18°C and +29°C. If a tem perature below +18°C is selected, LO
appears on the display. If a temperature is selected which is higher than
+29°C, the display will show HI. In the two extreme settings, the climate
control operates continuously with maxi mum cooling or heating output and the temperature is not regulated automatically. The temperature is not regu-
lated.
Note
By keeping the button on the driver's side pressed for several seconds,
the temperature of the passenger's side can be set to the temperature of the
driver's side or vice versa. The display indicates the new temperature value.Selecting the temperature
Separate temperatures can be selected for the driver's and
front passenger's side.– Press the or buttons below the displays
⇒page 154,
fig. 133 until the desired temperature is selected for the driver's
side or front passenger's side.The currently selected temperature setting is shown in the display above the
buttons.
By keeping the button on the driver's side pressed for several seconds,
the temperature of the passenger's side can be set to the temperature of the
driver's side or vice versa. The display indicates the new temperature value.
The previous temperature setting can be restored by resetting the display on
the driver's or passenger's side as required.

– To disable, press the button again or select the button.The temperature is regulated automatically. The air output is increased to
maximum and most of the air comes out of outlets 1 and 2 ⇒page 159.
The air recirculation and ECON modes ar e switched off when the button is
pressed.Air recirculation: manual enabling
The air recirculation setting prevents fumes etc. from entering
the interior.Enabling air recirculation mode
– Press the ⇒page 154, fig. 133 ⇒ button.
Disabling air recirculation mode
– Press the button again or
– Press the button or
– Press the button.In this setting, the air in the vehicle is constantly recirculated. We recommend
using the air recirculation mode in the following circumstances:
•
When driving through a tunnel or in queues of traffic, to prevent fumes
entering the interior of the vehicle.
WARNING
Do not drive for too long with the ai r recirculation mode enabled because,
if the compressor is disconnected, the windscreen may mist up because no
fresh air is entering the interior of the vehicle, with the subsequent risk of
accidents.ECON Mode (economy)
ECON mode helps save fuel.– To enable, press the button ⇒page 154, fig. 133 .
– To disable, press the button again or select the button.Air cooling is disconnected in ECON mode. The heating and the blower are
adjusted automatically. “ECON” stan ds for “Economy”. Disconnecting air
cooling (compressor) saves on fuel.
Please note that the interior temperature must not be lower than the outside
temperature in ECON mode. The blower does not cool or dehumidify the air in
the interior. The windows could therefore mist up.
On diesel vehicles, the supplementary heater is switched off in ECON mode
to save fuel.
Note
If the diode on the ECON button contin ues to light up when the ECON mode
has been switched off (i.e. the climate control has been switched on) this is
