– When you again press the switch , the cooling system is switched off. The
warning light in the button goes out. Only
the function of the ventilation remains
active when no lower temperature than the outside temperature can be reached.
Setting temperatureYou can separate the interior temperature for the left and right side separately. – You can set the temperature for both sides
after switching on the ignition with the
control dial .
– If you wish to set the temperature for the right side, turn the control dial . The
warning light in the button lights up,
this indicates that differing tempera-
tures for the left and right side can be set.
If the warning light in the button lights up, the temperature for both sides cannot be set with the control dial . You can
reinitiate this functi
on by pressing the
button . The warning light in the button which indicates the possibility to set differing temperatures for the left and right side, goes out. You can set the interior temperature between +18°C and +26°C. The interior temper- ature is regulated automatically within this
range. If you chose a temperature lower
than +18°C, a blue symbol lights up at the
start of the numerical
scale. If you chose a
temperature higher than +26°C, a red symbol lights up at the end of the numerical scale. In both limit positions the Climatroni
c operates at maximum cooling or heating
capacity, respectively. The temperatur
e is not controlled in this case.
Lengthy and uneven distri
bution of the air flow out of the vents (in particular at the leg
area) and large differences in temperature, for example when getting out of the vehicle, can result in chills in sensitive persons.
Recirculated air mode In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle and then fed back into the interior. When the automatic air distribution control is switched on, an air quality sensor measures the concentration of pollutants in the drawn-in air.Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from getting into the vehicle, for example when driving through a tunn
el or when standing in a traffic jam. If
a considerable increase in concentration of
pollutants is recognized by the air quality
sensor, when the automatic air distribution co
ntrol is switched on, the air distribution
control will temporarily be switched off. If
the concentration of po
llutants decreases to
the normal level, the air distribution control
is automatically switched off so that fresh
air can be guided into
the vehicle interior.
Switching recirculated air mode on– Press the button repeatedly
until the warning light on the left side of the
button lights up.
Switch on automatic air distribution control– Press the button repeatedly
until the warning light on the right side of the
button lights up.
Switch off automatic air distribution control temporarily– If the air quality sensor does not switch on
the air distribution control automatically
when there is a nauseating smell, you can
switch it on yourself by pressing the
button *. The warning light lights up
in the button on the left side.
Switching recirculated air mode off– Press the button or press the button repetitively, until the warning
lights in the button go out.
WARNING
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 atten-

Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)*Description and important information The auxiliary heating (auxiliary he
ating and ventilation) heats or
supplies the interior of the vehicl
e with fresh air independent of the
engine.Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) functions in connection with the Climatic or Climatronic. It can be used when stationary, when engi
ne is switched off for preheating of the
vehicle as well as while driving (only during the heating phase of the engine). The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) wa
rms up the coolant during the combustion
of fuel from the vehicle tank. The coolant warms up the air, which (if the blower speed is not set to zero) flows into the occupant compartment. Auxiliary ventilation The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by switching off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively decreased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).

reverse gear
is engaged and the igni-
tion is turned on. This is confirme
d by a brief acknowledgement signal.
Deactivating The parking aid is deactivated
by removing the reverse gear.
WARNING
•
The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
it is always the driver's responsibility to take care when parking the vehicle or carrying out similar manoeuvres.•
You should therefore satisfy yourself, befo
re reversing, that there is no small
obstacle, such as a rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., behind your vehicle. Such an obstacle might not be within the range detected by the sensors.•
Under certain circumstances, surfaces
of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of
the parking aid. Thus, these objects or
people who wear such clothing are not re
cognised by the sensors of the parking
aid.
Note
•
The parking aid does not operate if you are towing a trailer (applies to models
which feature a factory-fitted towing device*).•
If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after switching the ignition on and
engaging reverse gear, and there is no obstac
le close to your vehicle, this indicates a
system fault. Have the fault rectified by a specialist workshop.•
The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to operate
properly.
Front and rear parking aid*The parking aid provides a warning of
obstacles in front and behind the
vehicle.Fig. 118 Activating the
parking aid / detection range of the front sensors
The audible parking aid determines the distan
ce between the front or rear bumper and
an obstacle with the aid of ultrasound sensors. The sensors are integrated in the front and rear bumper. The signal tones for the fr
ont parking aid sound higher as standard
than for the rear parking aid. The tones of the parking aid can be adapted in the menu of the information display*
⇒page 27.
Range of sensors The distance warning begins at a distance
of about 120°cm from the obstacle in front
of the vehicle (area
⇒fig. 118
) and about 160 cm from the obstacle behind the
vehicle (area )
⇒page 113, fig. 117
. The interval between the warning signals
becomes shorter as the clearance is reduced. A continuous tone sounds from
a distance of approx. 30
cm (area ) - danger area.
From this moment on do not continue driving!
If the vehicle is equipped with a
factory-fitted towing device*, the border of
the danger area starts - continuous tone -
5 cm further behind the vehicle. The vehi
cle can be extended through an installed
detachable towing device. On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted
radio* or navigation system*, the distance
to the obstruction is shown graphically in the
display. On vehicles with a factory-fitted
towing device, the rear sensors are deactivated when towing a trailer. The driver is informed about this by a graphic display (vehic
le towing a trailer) in the radio* or the
navigation* display. The radio* or navigation

Park Assist*Description and important informationThe park assist assists you when parking in a suitable parallel parking space between two vehicles or
behind a vehicle.
The park assist automatically searches for
suitable parking spaces
after switching on
the ignition and when driving up to 30 km/h. During the parking procedure the park assist only takes over the steering movements, the pedals continue to be operated by the driver. Function of the system is based on:•
Length and depth measurement of the parking spaces when driving
•
Evaluation of the size of the parking space
•
Definition of the correct position of the vehicle for parking
•
Calculating the line on which the vehicle drives backwards into the parking space
•
Actuation of the steering force assistance, automatic spinning of the wheels of the
front axle when parking.
WARNING
The park assist does not take away the responsability from the driver when parking.•
Pay particular attention to small children and animals as they would not be
recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.•
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of the park assist or the parking aid. Thus, these objects or people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.

•
The external sound source of the park
assist and the parking aid can be
disruptively influenced and under unfavourable conditions, objects or people cannot be recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.
Caution
•
If other vehicles are parked behind or on
the kurb, the park assist guides your
ve hicle be yond the kurb or onto it. Make s ure that the whee ls or the whe el rims of yo ur vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.•
You should satisfy yourself before parking that there is no small obstacle, such as a
rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., in front
or behind your vehicle. Such an obstacle
might not be within the range detected by the sensors.•
Under certain circumstances, surfaces or st
ructures of certain objects such as wire
mesh fences, powder snow etc..., ca
nnot be recognised by the system.
•
The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depends on the
circumference of the wheels. The system does not function correctly if your vehicle is mounted with wheels of non-permissible
size, snow chains or a temporary spare
wheel (in order to reach the nearest workshop). If the tyres other than those excepted by the manufacturer are mounted, the resulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. The parking assistant system automatically performs the correction of the wheel circumference when driving.•
The accuracy of the evaluation for the parking space can be influenced by the
incorrectly determined outside temperature if
the later is influenced by the thermal
radiation of the engine i.e for stop and go in a traffic jam.•
In order to avoid damaging th
e sensors while cleaning wi
th high-pressure cleaners
or steam jets, the sensors must only be
directly sprayed for short periods while a
minimum distance of 10 cm must be observed.
Note
•
A component of the park assist is the front and rear parking aid*.
•
The electronic stability programme (ESP*)
must always be switched on for the
parking procedure.
•
Only the front parking aid operates if yo
u are towing a trailer (applies only to
models which feature a factory-fitted towing de
vice*). This is why it is not possible to
park backwards with the help of the
park assist when towing a trailer.

the gearbox to switch over to this style of driving and shift down earlier with frequent changes in gears in comparison to the moderate style of driving. Selecting the most appropriate driving programme for the particular style of driving is a continuous process. Irrespective of this it is, however, possible to switch or shift down into a dynamic shift programme by depressi
ng the accelerator rapidly. The gearbox
shifts down into a lower gear matching th
e speed of the car and this allows you to
accelerate rapidly (e.g. when overtaking)
without having to depress the accelerator
pedal fully into the kickdown range. The
original programme will be reactivated to
match your particular styl
e of driving once the gearbox has shifted up again.
When driving in hilly regions, the gears
are selected to match uphill and downhill
sections. This avoids the gearbo
x frequently shifting up an
d down when negotiating an
uphill stretch. When driving downhill, it is possible to shift down into the Tiptronic position, in order to exploit the engine brake torque.Tiptronic The Tiptronic allows the driver
to also shift gears manually.
Fig. 124 Selector lever: manual shifting /
information display: Manual shifting of gears
The selector lever position you have engaged is indicated in the information display of the instrument cluster together with the engaged gear
⇒fig. 124
on the right.
Switching over to manual shifting– Push the selector lever to the right out of position
D. After switching over, the
current engaged gear is indicated in the display.
Shifting up gears– One-touch forward of the selector
lever (in the Tiptronic position)
⇒fig. 124
on
the left.
Shifting down gears– One-touch back of the selector
lever (in the Tiptronic position) .
It is possible to switch over to manual both
when the car is stationary and also when
driving. When you accelerate, the gearbox shifts up
automatically into the higher gear just
before the maximum
permissible engine speed is reached.
If you select a lower gear, the automatic gearbox does not shift down until there is no risk of the engine overrevving. If you operate the kickdown function, the gear
box shifts into a lower gear in line with
the vehicle speed and engine speed.Emergency programme An emergency programme exists in the event of a fault in the system.The gearbox operates in a corresponding emergency programme if there are func- tional faults in the gearbox electronics. This
is indicated by all of
the segments in the
display lighting up or going out. A functional fault can ha
ve the following effect:
•
The gearbox only shifts into certain gears.
•
The reverse gear
R cannot be used.
•
The manual shift programme (Tiptronic) is switched off in the emergency mode.
If the gearbox has switched over to
emergency mode, drive to the nearest
specialist garage in order to
have the fault rectified.
