Heating and air conditioning system 96After switching on the cooling Condensation from the evaporator of the air condi-
tioning may drip down and form a puddle below the vehicle. This is quite normal
and not an indication of a leak!
Recommended setting for all periods of the year:•
Set the temperature to 22 °C.
•
Press the button ⇒fig. 121.
•
Move the air outlet vents 3 and 4, so that the air flow is directed slightly
upwards.
Switching over between degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit
Press and hold the buttons and ⇒fig. 121. The information in the
desired temperature measuring unit appears in the display.
WARNING
•
For your own safety and that of other road users, ensure that all the
windows are free of ice, snow and misting. Please familiarize yourself about
how to correctly operate the heating and ventilation systems, how to demist
and defrost the windows, as well as with the cooling mode.
•
You should not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of
time, as “stale” air may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, divert
your attention and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an
accident increases. Switch recirculated air mode off as soon as the windows
begin misting up.Note
•
If the cooling system has not been switched on for a lengthy period, odours may
be produced at the evaporator because of deposits. Switch the cooling system on
at least once a month for approximately 5 minutes at the highest blower stage - also
during the cold season of the year - in order to remove such odours. Also open a
window for a short time.
•
We recommend that you do not smoke in the vehicle when the recirculating air
mode is operating since the smoke which is drawn at the evaporator from the inte-
rior of the vehicle forms deposits in the evaporator of the air conditioning system. This produces a permanent odour when the air conditioning system is operating
which can only be eliminated through considerable effort and expense (replace-
ment of compressor).
•
The used air streams out through the air removal openings in the luggage
compartment.

Communication 114Universal telephone preinstallation with voice control*The voice control is activated according to equipment installed on the vehicle by
pressing the button PTT (push to talk)
 on the adapter ⇒fig. 135 or the button
 on the multi-functional module* ⇒page 113.
Aside from the button PTT, the button SOS can be found on certain adapters
⇒fig. 136. This button is without function.
A phone phonebook is part of the mobile phone preinstallation with voice control.
In the phone phonebook there are 1 500 free memory locations available. This
phone phonebook can be used in line with the mobile telephone.For vehicles fitted with multi-functional module*, the operation is performed via
the function buttons on the module ⇒page 113.
Furthermore the volume can be changed individually at any time with the button
for setting the radio or on vehicles fitted with multi-functional module* with func-
tion buttons on the steering wheel.
If the system answers with the voice response “Telephone is not ready”, please
check the operating state of the telephone as follows:
•
Is the telephone switched on?
•
Is the PIN code entered?
Dialogue
The period, in which the telephone system is ready to receive voice commands and
carry out the voice commands, is called DIALOGUE. The system gives audible feed-
back and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions. You can start or
end the dialogue at any time by pressing the PTT button. You can also end the
dialogue with the voice command CANCEL.
The dialogue is always automatically ended after carrying out an operation, e.g.
after erasing the name from the phonebook.
The dialogue of the incoming call is immediately interrupted and you can accept
the call by pressing the button
.
If a voice command is not detected, the system answers with “Sorry?” and a new
entry can be performed. After the 3rd error the answer “Cancel” is given and the
dialogue is ended.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on the following
factors:
•
Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive voice
pauses.
•
Avoid insufficient articulation.
•
Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to reduce or stop disturbing
exterior noise.
•
It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the tone of your
voice is louder than the increased surrounding noise.

WARNING
•
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in the vehicle
without using a special external aerial or an external aerial which has been
incorrectly installed, this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic
field in the interior of the vehicle.
•
