Technical Data
Speedometer with distance display
The speedometer indicates the speed of the vehicle and the
distance travelled.The distance is normally stated in kilometres (km). On some models,
however, the mileage recorder will show “miles”.
Lower distance display
The lower distance display records the vehicle's total mileage.
Upper distance display (trip recorder)
The upper distance display shows the distance that has been travelled since
the trip recorder was last reset. It is used to measure short journeys. The last
digit of the trip recorder indicates distances of 100 metres or tenths of a mile.
The upper distance display can be reset to zero by pressing the reset button
⇒fig. 42 . Fault display
If there is a fault in the instrument panel, the letters
DEF will appear perma-
nently in the trip recorder display. Please have the fault rectified as soon as
possible.
Electronic immobiliser
The vehicle key data is consulted when the ignition is switched on.
If an uncoded key is used, the message SAFE will appear in the trip recorder
display. The vehicle can no longer be started if that happens.
Fuel reserveThe display only works when the ignition is switched on.
When the needle reaches the reserve zone, the symbol
 lights up in the
instrument cluster display ⇒page 80. At this point there are still about 8 to
10 litres of fuel left in the tank. This is your reminder to fill up soon.
You can consult the tank capacity of your vehicle in the ⇒page 304, “Dimen-
sions and capacities” section.

Service reminder
The instrument panel controls the distance travelled 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 ⇒page 74, fig. 52 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).Auto-check systemIntroductionThe auto-check system checks important components and vehicle systems.
These background checks are run constantly, as long as the ignition is
switched on.

Heating, Ventilation and Air conditioning
160Heating, 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 162, fig. 141 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 system also takes solar radiation into
account and, therefore, no subsequent manual readjustments are required.
Therefore, automatic mode ⇒ page 163 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 warmed up sufficiently (this does not
apply to the defrost setting).
In order to achieve maximum engine power, the air conditioning compressor
is tem po ra r ily s witche d o ff whe n pulli ng away f ro m s tan dstill wit h full th rot tle.
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.

Heating, Ventilation and Air conditioning
162Controls
This overview will help you become quickly familiar with the controls for the climate control.The left-hand display shows the temperature selected for the left-hand side
and the right-hand display the temperature for the right-hand side.
The functions can be switched on or off by briefly pressing the buttons. The
diode on the buttons lights up when the function is enabled.
The grille between buttons and must be kept clear, as the tempera-
ture sensors are located behind the grille.•Do not cover the grille.•Do not clean the grille with a vacuum cleaner, as this could damage the
temperature sensors located behind the grille.
