The auxiliary heating switches off automati-
cally after 50 minutes. This time limit can be
altered. Please contact a qualified specialist
workshop for this purpose.
You cannot use the auxiliary ventilation to
cool the vehicle interior to a temperature
lower than the outside temperature.
Before switching on X
Turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock.
X Set the temperature.
The auxiliary heating/ventilation can be acti-
vated even when the climate control is being
controlled manually. Optimum comfort can
be attained when the system is set to auto-
matic mode. Set the temperature to 22 †.
The auxiliary heating/ventilation can be acti-
vated or deactivated using the remote control
or the button on the centre console.
The on-board computer can be used to spec-
ify up to three departure times, one of which
may be preselected (Y page 247).
Switching the auxiliar yheating/venti-
lation on/off using the centre console
button Button on the centre console The colours of the indicator lamps on the but-
to nh ave the following meanings:
Blue Auxiliary ventilatio nswitched on
Red Auxiliary heating switched on
Yellow Departure time preselected (Ypage 247)
Switching on auxiliary heating/ventila-
tion
X Press button :.
The red or blue indicator lamp in but-
ton :lights up.
Switching off auxiliary heating/ventila-
tion
X Press button :.
The red or blue indicator lamp in but-
ton :goes out.
Switching the auxiliary heating/venti-
lation on/off using the remote control Your vehicle comes with one remote control.
You may use two additional remote controls
for your vehicle. For more information, please
contac taqualified specialist workshop.
The remote control has a maximum range of
approximately 300 metres. This range is
reduced by:
R sources of radio interference
R solid objects between the remote control
and the vehicle
R the remote control being in an unfavoura-
ble position in relation to the vehicle
R transmitting from an enclosed space
i The optimum range can be achieved if you
hold the remote control vertically, pointing
upwards when you press one of the but-
tons.
i Abattery symbol appears in the display
when the battery in the remote control is
low. Replace the remote control battery
(Y page 148). 146
Operating the climate control systemClimate control

are higher than those shown by the on-
board computer. In this case, do no treduce
the tyre pressures.
i The operation of the tyre pressure moni-
tor can be affected by interference from
radio transmitting equipment (e.g. radio
headphones, two-way radios) that may be
being operated in or near the vehicle.
Checking tyre pressure electronically X
Make sure that the key is in posi-
tion 2(Ypage 155) in the ignition lock.
X Press the =or; button on the steer-
ing wheel to select the Serv. menu.
X Press the 9or: button to select
Tyre pressure .
X Press the abutton.
The curren ttyre pressur efor each wheel
will be displayed in the multifunction dis-
play.
If the vehicle has been parked for longer than
20minutes, the Tyre pressures will be displayed after a few minutes of
driving message appears.
After a teach-in period, the tyre pressure
monitor automatically recognises new
wheels or new sensors. As long as a clear
allocation of the tyre pressure values to the
individual wheels is not possible, the Tyrepressure monitor active display mes-
sage is shown instead of the tyre pressure
display .The tyre pressures are already being
monitored.
i If a spare wheel/emergency spare wheel
is fitted, the system may continue to show
the tyre pressure of the wheel that has
been removed for a few minutes. If this
occurs, note that the value displayed for
the position where the spare wheel/emer-
gency spare wheel is fitted is not the same
as the spare wheel/emergency spare
wheel's current tyre pressure. Warning messages of the tyre pressure
monitor If the tyre pressure monitor detects a signifi-
cant pressure loss on one or more tyres, a
warning message is shown in the multifunc-
tion display.
Awarning tone also sounds and
the tyre pressure warning lamp lights up in
the instrument cluster.
Each tyre that is affected by a significant loss
of pressure is highlighted in the pressure dis-
play.
If the Please correct tyre pressure message appears in the multifunction dis-
play:
X
Chec kthe tyre pressure on all four wheels
and correct it if necessary.
i If the wheel positions on the vehicle are
interchanged, the tyre pressures may be
displayed for the wrong positions for a
short time. This is rectified after a few
minutes of driving, and the tyre pressures
are displayed for the correct positions.
Restarting the tyre pressure monitor When you restart the tyre pressure monitor,
all existing warning messages are deleted and
the warning lamps go out. The monitor uses
the currently set tyre pressures as the refer-
ence values for monitoring. In most cases, the
tyre pressure monitor will automatically
detect the new referencev
alues after you
have changed the tyre pressure.
i For an overview of th emenus, see
(Y page 234).
If you wish to define the new reference values
manually:
X Use the table on the inside of the fuel filler
flap to ensure that the tyre pressure is set
correctly in all four tyres for the current
operating conditions. Tyre pressure
