reprogrammed. However, if the engine hasn't been
run since the last programmed start, the fuel-fired
booster heater will not start up the second time so
as to prevent the battery from being discharged.
The length of time required to pre-heat the vehicle
is calculated in the control unit of the fuel-fired
booster heater and is based on two temperature
values:
• Ambient air temperature: this message is taken
from the GEM via the CAN bus.
• Coolant temperature: this is determined via an internal sensor in the fuel-fired booster heater.
The maximum heating time is 30 minutes at an
outside air temperature of -10 °C or lower. The
heating time decreases proportionally with
increasing ambient temperature until the ambient
temperature is between +15 °C and +20 °C. Then
the minimum heating time is 10 minutes. The
parking heater is deactivated at temperatures
above +20 °C.
The sequence for a programmed start of the
booster heater is as follows:
• Two minutes before the start of the maximum heating time the driver information
system/instrument cluster sends an activation
message to the fuel-fired booster heater via the
CAN bus.
• The fuel-fired booster heater calculates the required heating time and, if necessary, sends
a delay request on the CAN bus.
• At the calculated time, the fuel-fired booster heater starts up. The conditions for start-up are:
engine not running and amount of fuel in the
fuel tank is above 14% of maximum.
• When the coolant temperature reaches +30 °C, the control unit of the fuel-fired booster heater
sends a request to switch on the passenger
compartment blower.
• Eight minutes after the programmed switch-off time, the booster heater stops heating mode
and starts a run-on operation to clean the
system's spark plugs.
• Ten minutes after the switch-off time, the post-cleaning operation is complete. The
additional ten minutes run-on time provides
some leeway in case the driver is late arriving.
After a programmed start-up of the booster heater
it is switched off again after the heating time has
elapsed (or if the fuel level in the fuel tank drops
below 8%). The booster heater stops within 2 minutes of the engine starting. This leaves enough
time to check whether the switch-on conditions for
boost heat mode have been met, thus preventing
the booster heater from having to switch off and
switch back on again. The heater can be switched
off manually at any time from the menu.
Whilst the fuel-fired booster heater is in additional
heating mode and/or parking heating mode, the
instrument cluster receives a fuel consumption
signal; this is used to re-calculate the vehicle's
remaining range and fuel consumption data.
Emergency shutoff
In the event of an accident in which the airbags
are deployed, the control unit of the fuel-fired
booster heater receives a message on the CAN
bus from the restraints control module (RCM).
When this message is received, the booster heater
system switches off immediately.
The booster heater control module deactivates the
system and does not respond to further messages
on the CAN bus. The booster heater control module
needs to be activated with WDS.
Component Description
Electric Booster Heater
The electric booster heater consists of three
individual heating elements, which are incorporated
into a single housing. It is controlled by the generic
electronic module (GEM), taking into account the
following factors:

WARNINGS:
Batteries normally produce explosive
gases which may cause personal injury,
therefore do not allow flames, sparks or
lighted substances to come near the
battery. When charging or working near
the battery always shield your face and
protect your eyes. Always provide
adequate ventilation. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in personal
injury.
The supplemental restraint system (SRS)
is active for a certain length of time after
the power supply has been disconnected.
Wait for a minimum of 3 minutes before
disconnecting or removing any SRS
components.
Audio unit key code saving devices must
not be used when working on

When using these devices the vehicle
electrical system is still live but with a
reduced current flow. Failure to follow this
instruction may result in personal injury.
CAUTION: Make sure the engine is not
running before disconnecting the battery
ground cable to avoid damage to the
vehicle electrical system.
NOTE: Disconnecting the battery will erase fault
codes, drive values and customer data stored in
the modules.
NOTE: This procedure should be used to
disconnect the battery while carrying out repairs
that refer to the battery being disconnected.
1. Refer to: Battery and Battery Charging Health
and Safety Precautions (100-00 General
Information, Description and Operation).
2. Obtain and record the audio unit keycode and

Battery charging (Smart Charge)
In addition to the familiar functions, the Smart
Charge system also performs the following
functions:
•
Automatic deactivation of non-critical high power
electrical consumers when the battery voltage
is low in order to reduce the level of current
drawn.
• Automatic activation of non-critical high power electrical consumers when the battery voltage
is excessively high in order to protect
components which are sensitive to increased
voltages.
The battery charging current is optimized through
continuous calculation of the battery temperature
and monitoring of the alternator output voltage.
The alternator load is signaled to the PCM
(powertrain control module) in order to provide it
with an early indication when an electric component
is to be switched on or off, thereby also providing
information about imminent changes to the amount
of torque demanded by the alternator. By
evaluating this information the PCM is capable of
increasing the stability of the engine under idling.
The two remaining functions of the Smart Charge
system are controlled by the GEM. G1030788en

Rear Drive Axle and Differential – System Operation andComponent Description
System Operation
General Information
The powertrain with all-wheel drive consists of the
following main components:
• engine
• transaxle with front axle differential
• transfer box
• halfshafts and driveshafts
• Haldex clutch
• rear axle differential
The Haldex clutch guarantees continuous variable
torque transmission to the rear axle under all
driving conditions. The Haldex clutch reacts
immediately and equally quickly with slow or fast
wheel slip.
A difference in angle of rotation of 90° between the
input and output shafts is required to build up
maximum pressure at the multi-plate clutch or to
transmit maximum torque.
The advantage of vehicles with all-wheel drive is
that they distribute the drive between all four
wheels. They therefore have a higher tractive
power. They feature improved cornering behaviour,
as the grip at all four wheels can be better utilised.
Thus, the wheels contribute to a greater degree
towards cornering stability.
The engine torque is transmitted from the transfer
box to the rear axle via a driveshaft. The driveshaft
is flange-mounted to the input side of the Haldex
clutch.
Driving situations
Pulling away and accelerating
• When pulling away and accelerating, as muchall-wheel drive as necessary must be available
immediately in the short-term. During
acceleration, the electronic system detects slip
at the front axle. This slip is counter-controlled
and thus the propulsive force optimally
distributed to the two axes.
Cornering • A sporty driving style, in particular dynamic
cornering, demands stable cornering behaviour.
The all-wheel system distributes the propulsive
force to all four wheels and by so doing boosts
the high cornering forces so that the vehicle
makes optimum contact with the road surface.
Snow and black ice
• Snow and black ice require particularly high grip. Under these conditions, the Haldex clutch
always distributes the propulsive force to the
axle with the better traction. The all-wheel
system reacts intelligently and quickly to all
driving situations.
Trailer operation
• When driving with a trailer, the trailer weight (support load) is transmitted to the rear axle via
the towbar. This reduces the load on the front
wheels, which means they can slip. The
electronic system detects this difference and
distributes most of the propulsive force to the
rear axle.
