Vehicle care I I Technical data

Storing and recalling settings
With the help of the memory buttons 1 and 2
~ page 74, fig. 75 the
settings for two different drivers can be stored and recalled
~ page 75.
The current settings are also automatically stored on the remote
control key being used when the vehicle is locked. When the vehicle

Raising/Lowering the head restraint
- The head restraints on the front seats can be adjusted to
provide safe support to head and neck at the optimum
height~ fig. 77. When optimally adjusted, the top of the
restraint should be level with the top of the head
~ page 173, "Proper adjustment of head restraints". ~

The climate controls are a combination of heating, ventilation and
cooling sys tems, which automa tica lly reduce humidity and cool the
air inside your vehic le .
The climate contro l automatically maintains a temperature once it
has been set. The temperature of the air from the vents, fan speed
(air volume) and air distribution are also automatica lly adjusted. The
system also takes into account strong sunsh ine so that manual
adjustment is not necessary . So in almost all cases,
a ut oma tic mode
offers the best co nditions for the comfort of the occupants at all
times of the year~
page 99.
Please note the following :
Turn on the air conditioner to reduce hum idity in the veh ic le. This
a lso prevents the windows from fogging up.
When the outside temperature is high and the air is very humid,
c onden sation from the evaporator may drip under the vehicle . T his
is normal and does no t indicate a leak.
If the outside temperature is low, the fan norma lly on ly switches to
a higher speed once the engine coo lant has warmed up sufficiently .
The air conditioner temporarily switches off when you drive off from a standstill using fu ll throttle to save engine power .
The compressor also switches off if the coolant temperature is too high, so that the engine can be adequately cooled under extreme
loads.
Du st and poll en filte r
The dust and pollen filter (a combined particle filter and activated
cha rcoal fi lter) reduces or prevents outside air pol lut ion (dust, or
pollen) from entering the vehic le .
The dust and pollen filter must be changed at the intervals specified
in your Maintenance booklet, so that the air conditioner can prop­
erly work .
I f you drive your vehicle in an area with a high degree of a ir pollu­
tion, the filter may need to be changed more frequent ly than speci-

Energ y mana gement
To prevent the battery from being discharged and to restore the
balance of energy, components which require large amounts o f
energy are temporarily cut back or switched off~
page 241.
Hea tin g systems in particu lar req uire a great dea l of energy. I f you
notice, for examp le, that the rear window heater is not heating, then
it has been temp orarily cut back or switched off by
energy manage ­
ment .
These systems are available again as soon as the energy
balance has bee n res tored .
& WARNING
Redu ced vi sibilit y is dangerou s and c an cau se a ccidents .
• For safe driving it is very important th at all windows be free of
ice , snow and conden sation .
• Completely familiari ze yourself with the proper use and fun c­
tion of the heating and ventilation sy stem and e speci ally how to
defog and defrost the windo ws.
• Never use the wind shield wiper /w asher sy stem in freezing
w ea ther until you have warmed the wind shield first , using the
heating and ventil ation sy stem . The wa sher solution m ay fre eze

• If you suspect that the climate contro l system has been
damaged, switc h the system off to avoid fur ther damages, and have
it inspected by a qualified dealership. .,_
