Notes on HVAC
GWarning!
Follow the recommended settings for
heating and cooling given on the following
pages. Otherwise the windows could fog up,
impairing visibility and endangering you
and others.
Air conditioning with climate control*
The air conditioning improves the level of
comfort when driving at high outside
temperatures by cooling and
dehumidifying the air.
Nearly all dust particles, pollutants, are
filtered out by an integrated particle
filter before outside air enters the
passenger compartment through the air
distribution system. It also operates when

GWarning!
Never drive with iced up or fogged
windows. Visibility will be significantly
impaired. Impaired visibility could
endanger yourself and others. This may
prevent you from observing the traffic
conditions, thereby causing an accident.
The best defrosting of windows is achieved
if the ice is completely removed from the
windows manually with an ice scraper
before starting the engine.

Rear window defroster
The rear window defroster serves to de-ice
the rear window quickly and clear the view
if the rear window is fogged.
The rear window defroster uses a large
amount of power. To keep battery drain to a
minimum, switch off the rear window
defroster as soon as the rear window is
clear. The rear window defroster is
automatically deactivated after
approximately 10 minutes of operation.

Air recirculation mode*
Switch to air recirculation mode 13
to
prevent unpleasant odors from entering the
vehicle from the outside (e.g. before
driving through a tunnel). This setting cuts
off the intake of outside air and
recirculates the air in the passenger
compartment.
GWarning!
When the air recirculation mode is
switched on, windows can fog on the inside
immediately. Fogged windows impair
visibility, endangering you and others. If
the windows begin to fog on the inside,
switching off the air recirculation mode
immediately should clear interior window
fogging. If interior window fogging
persists, make sure the air conditioning is
switched on, turn air distribution control
0087 to position 0087 and increase the air
volume using air volume control 0046.

R the panorama roof* may be damaged, thus
injuring persons
R this can have a substantial adverse
effect on the driving dynamics of the
vehicle, thus causing accidents
R the rack and/or the load could detach and
through this cause an accident or other
people could be injured by the load and/
or rack that has fallen off
GWarning!
Make sure the tailgate is closed when the
engine is running and while driving.
Among other dangers, deadly carbon
monoxide (CO) gases may enter vehicle
interior resulting in unconsciousness and
death.
GWarning!

vehicle for towing a trailer. A trailer can
permanently impair driving safety.
The gross vehicle weight which is the
weight of the vehicle including fuel, tools,
installed accessories, passengers, and
luggage/cargo must never exceed the load
limit and the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) for your vehicle as specified on the
placard located on the driver’s door
B‑pillar ( Y page 198). In addition, the
load must be distributed in such a way so
that the weight on each axle never exceeds
the Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) for the
front and rear axle. The GVWR and GAWR for
your vehicle are indicated on the
certification label which can be found on
the driver’s door B‑pillar.
For more information, see “Loading the
vehicle” ( Y page 120).
The handling characteristics of a fully
loaded vehicle depend greatly on the load
distribution. It is therefore recommended
to load the vehicle with the heaviest items
being placed towards the front of the
vehicle.
Please pay attention to and comply with the
following instructions when loading the
vehicle and transporting cargo:
R Always place items being carried
against seat backrests, and fasten them
as securely as possible.
R The heaviest portion of the cargo should
always be kept as low as possible against
seat backrests.
R Do not stack loads higher than the top
edge of the head restraints.
R Make sure no luggage/cargo items can get
above or next to the driver’s and/or
passenger seat into the passenger
compartment.
R Make sure luggage/cargo is properly
secured.
R Always use, if so equipped, cargo net*
when transporting cargo.
