Principles of Operation
WARNINGS:
This procedure involves fuel additive
handling. Be prepared for fuel additive
spillage at all times and always observe
fuel handling precautions. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in personal
injury.
Eye, hand, ear protection and protective
clothing are required to be worn during
any general service or removal and
installation service procedure of fuel
additive system components. Failure to
follow this instruction may result in
personal injury.
In case of fuel additive fluid contact with
the skin or the eyes, flush immediately with
water for a minimum of 15 minutes and
seek prompt medical attention. Failure to
follow these instructions may result in
personal injury.
If fuel additive fluid is swallowed, call a
physician immediately. Rinse mouth
immediately with water, do not induce
vomiting. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in personal injury.
Always provide adequate ventilation when
working on the fuel additive fluid system
or related components. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in personal
injury.
Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or
open flame of any type when working on
or near any fuel related components.
Highly flammable vapors are always
present and may ignite. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in personal
injury.
CAUTION: Make sure the workshop area
in which the vehicle is being worked on is
as clean and as dust free as possible.
Foreign matter from working on clutches,
brakes or from machining or welding
operations can contaminate the fuel
system and may result in later malfunction. The fuel additive system is an on-board system
that allows the injection of an additive at each
refueling operation by the customer. The additive
quantity is proportional to the fuel quantity that has
been added. The fuel additive system module
controls the amount of additive fluid entering the
fuel tank at each refueling, A switch mounted on
the fuel filler flap is used to detect the start of the
refueling event and the fuel gauge that is mounted
within the fuel tank informs the fuel additive tank
module the quantity of actual fuel added.

Speed Control – Overview
Speed Control
The cruise control system keeps the vehicle to a
target speed selected by the driver. The cruise
control system is controlled by the PCM (powertrain
control module)
WARNING: The cruise control system may
not be used in heavy traffic, on winding
roads or on a slippery road surface.
To remove the buttons for the cruise control
system, the airbag must be removed. The buttons
for the two control switch units cannot be replaced
individually.

• The refrigerant line between the fixed orificetube and the evaporator must be cold from the
point where the fixed orifice tube is installed.
Depending on the weather, the refrigerant line
may also have ice on its surface.
• The refrigerant line between the evaporator and the A/C compressor including the dehydrator
must be cold.
Evaporator outlet line temperature test
To test the power of the A/C system, the
temperature at the evaporator outlet line must be
measured. To do this, the following preconditions
must be met:
• Open all windows.
• Set the air distribution to the defrost/dashboardposition and open all the ventilation nozzles.
• DO NOT switch on recirculated air.
• Select lowest blower switch setting.
• Select lowest temperature setting.
NOTE: The temperature measurement cannot be
done with a thermometer which makes no contact.
The surface reflection from the metal line may
cause incorrect readings.
Connect the temperature sensor (Fluke 80 PK-8)
to the outlet line of the evaporator. Locate the
temperature sensor as close as possible to the
evaporator. Connect the temperature sensor to the
multimeter.
Start the engine and allow it to run at idle speed
for several minutes.
Switch on the A/C.
After three minutes, measure the surface
temperature of the evaporator outlet line.
If the temperature measured is 4° C or lower, the
A/C system is OK. If the temperature is higher, the
A/C system may be under-filled. For further
information, refer to
REFER to: Air Conditioning (A/C) System
Recovery, Evacuation and Charging (412-00
Climate Control System - General Information,
General Procedures).
Frequent faults and their causes
If the cooling power of the A/C system is not
adequate, make certain that the temperature
control flap(s) is/are operating correctly. • No or poor cooling performance:
– Blockage or narrowing of a refrigerant line orin the dehydrator. The location of the
blockage or narrowing can easily be located
by temperature comparisons at the
refrigerant lines and the dehydrator. The
blockage or restriction is located at the point
where the temperature difference is
identified. Note: A temperature difference
in the area of the fixed orifice tube is
normal. If the location of the blockage or
narrowing is found, check the corresponding
component and renew as applicable.
• Sudden drop in cooling performance (after the air conditioning has been switched off for
approx. 5 minutes, the cooling performance
returns to normal):
– The cause is an iced-up fixed orifice tubebecause of moisture in the refrigerant circuit.
In order to ensure that moisture is completely
removed from the refrigerant circuit, the
dehydrator should be renewed and the
evacuation time should be extended to 2-3
hours. For further information
REFER to: Air Conditioning (A/C) System
Recovery, Evacuation and Charging
(412-00 Climate Control System - General
Information, General Procedures).
Sequence of A/C Request Signal
NOTE: The electronic automatic temperature
control (EATC) module is integrated into the air
conditioning control assembly.
NOTE: The generic electronic module (GEM) is
an integral part of the central junction box (CJB).
After actuating the A/C ON/OFF switch integrated
into the A/C control assembly, an A/C request
signal is sent from the A/C control assembly
(vehicles with EATC: EATC module) to the GEM.
From there, the signal is sent to the instrument
cluster via the MS-CAN bus. A gateway is installed
in the instrument cluster, which establishes the
connection between the MS-CAN bus and the
HS-CAN bus.
After the signal has been converted in the gateway,
it is relayed to the powertrain control module (PCM)
via the HS-CAN bus. Once all the required
parameters have been met, the PCM switches on
the refrigerant compressor and thus the A/C system
via the A/C clutch relay.
