The headlights only work when the ignition is switched on . While
starting the engine or when switching off the ignition, the head ­
lights will go off and only the side marker lights will remain lit .
& WARNING
Crashe s can happen when you cannot see the road ahead and
when you c annot be seen by other motori sts.
• Always tu rn on the headlight s so th at you can see ahead and
so that others can see your ca r from the ba ck.
[ i ] Tips

lights are still on, a buzzer will sound as long as the driver's doo r is
open to remind you to switch off the lights .
• Always observe the spec ific local regulations for your area when

interior and the ex te rior of the headlight lens .
- With the main beams switched on, the light -emitting area will
be free o f condensation after a short time, however the edges of
the glass may still be fogged .
- The rear lights and turn signa ls may also be affected.
- This physical phenomenon has no effect on the life of your
vehicle 's lighting system. •

& WARNING
• Wiper blades are crucial for safe driving! Only when they are in
good condition are they able to clear the windows properly to
provide uncompromising visibility. Worn or damaged wiper blades
are a safety hazard~
page 63, "Replacing front wiper blades"!
• The light/rain sensor* is only designed to assist and support
the driver. It remains entirely the driver's responsibility to monitor outside weather conditions and to manually activate the wipers as
soon as rain or drizzle reduces visibility through the windshield.
• The windshield must not be treated with water-repellent mate­
rials. They can increase glare under poor visibility conditions such
as wetness, darkness, or when the sun is low on the horizon. In
addition, they can cause the windshield wipers to chatter.
0 Note
In freezing or near freezing conditions:
• Always check that the wiper blades are not frozen to the glass
before you turn the wipers on. Loosen a wiper blade which is frozen
in place before operating the wipers to prevent damage to the wiper
blade or the wiper motor.
• Do not use the wipers to clear a frosted window . Using the
wipers as a convenient ice scraper will destroy the wiper blades.
• Before you take your vehicle to an automatic car wash, make sure
you have the windshield wiper system switched off (lever in position
0), otherwise the windshield wiper system could get damaged in the
car wash if it should suddenly come on.
[ i] Tips
• The rain sensor is part of the interval wiping system. Turning off
the ignition will also deactivate the rain sensor . To reactivate the
sensor, switch off the interval wiping function, then switch it back
on again.
Controls and equip ­
ment
Clear vision
• Worn or dirty windshield wiper blades cause smearing, which
can affect the operation of the light/rain sensor*. Check the condi­
tion of your windshield wiper blades regularly.
• Applies to vehicles with light/rain sensor: When the wipers are
switched on manually and in rain conditions, the automatic head­
lights* turn on~
page 52, "Sensor activated head and tail light
control" or off during the day when the wipers are no longer oper­
ating. The automatic headlights * function is available in this case
only when the light switch is in the "AUTO" position~
page 52,
fig. 40.
• Make sure the washer fluid reservoir in the engine compartment
is topped off before going on a long trip. Look up~
page 233 for
checking and filling the washer container .
• The wipers only operate with the hood completely closed. •

Headlight washer system
The headlight washer system cleans the headlights.
Operate the windshield wiper/washer system=> page 60,
fig. 50 ® with the headlights turned on by holding the
lever for longer than one second.
The washer jets extend forward out of the front bumper driven by
water pressure to spray the front headlights with water .
You should inspect the headlights regularly (for example when refu ­
eling) and clean off any solid dirt or insects from the lenses.
To ensure the system works properly in winter, keep the washer jets
free of snow and remove any ice using a de -icing spray. •

Service position The wiper blades can be changed more easily in the
service position .
Fig . 51 Wiper lever
It is only possible to change wiper blades if you move the
w iper arms to the service position. On vehicles with the
Driver Information System , the wiper blades can only be
moved to the service or parked position via t he menu
display =>
page 27. In order to use the windshield wipers,
the hood must be completely closed.
Moving wiper blades to the service position
-When there is a risk of frost, make sure that the wiper
blades are not frozen to the windshield .
- Switch the ignition on .
- Switch the ignition off again and move the wiper lever
~ fig. 51 from position Oto 1 within 10 seconds . The
wiper arms now move into the field of view in the wind ­
shie ld.
Moving wiper blades to park position
-Make certain that the wiper arms are lying against the
windshield .
- Switch the ignition on and move the wiper lever~ fig . 51
from position Oto
1. The w iper arms w ill move back to the
park position.
I t is much easier to chang e wiper blad es if you mov e th e wiper arms
to the service position. You wil l also avoid paint damage to the hood
when working on the wip ers when they are in the service position .
0 Note
Never drive your vehicle when the windshield wiper arms are in the
service position and pulled away from the windshield . When you
drive faster than 4 mph (6 km/h) , the wiper arms automatica lly
return back to the park position and could cause paint damage to
the engine hood!
[ i ] Tips
• You can also turn on the service position, for example, if you
want to protect the windshield from icing by using a cover.
• The service position moves to
off automatically when you
operate the windshield wiper lever, or speed exceeds
4 mph
(6 km/hl. •

The air conditioning automatically maintains the selected

- Rotate the knob~ fig. 76@ to the right to switch on the

W arm and cold
Using the previously recommended setting is the quickest way to
achieve a comfortable climate in the vehicle. This setting should
therefore only be changed when personal comfort levels or certa in
circumstances require it.
The climate controls are a combination of automatic heating and
ventilation systems and a cooling system which dehumidifies and cools the air inside the vehic le .
The climate controls automatically maintain a temperature once it has been set. The temperature of the air from the vents, fan speed
(air volume) and air dist ribu tion are a lso automatically adjus ted . The
system also takes into account strong sunshine so that manual
adjus tment is not necessary. So in almost all cases,
a ut omatic mode
offers the best conditions for the comfort of the occupants at all
times of the year~
page 88.
Ple ase not e:
In cooling mode, relative humidity in the interior is reduced. This
prevents the windows from fogging up .
When relative humidity and temperatures outside are high,
conden ­
s ate
can drip from the air conditioning evaporator and form a pool
of water under the vehicle . This is normal and not an indication of a
leak!
When outside temperatures are low, the fan does no t switch to a
higher speed until the coolant has reached an adequate tempera­
ture, with the exception of t he defrost setting .
When accelerating at wide-open throttle, the air conditioning compressor is temporarily switched off to maintain fu ll engine
power.
In order to ensure engine cooling under extreme engine loads, the
compressor is switched off if coolant temperatures climb too high ...
