34Keys, doors and windows
Press electronic key button e to
activate the anti-theft alarm system.
Electronic key system 3 21.
Deactivation
Unlocking the vehicle (with button c
or the button on any exterior door handle) or switching on the ignition
deactivates the anti-theft alarm
system. Hazard warning lights flash to confirm deactivation.
The system is not deactivated when
unlocking the driver's door with the
key or with the central locking switch
in the passenger compartment.
Notice
If the alarm has been triggered,
unlocking the vehicle with the key
will not stop the alarm siren. To stop the siren, switch on the ignition. The
hazard warning lights will not flash
upon deactivation if the alarm has
been triggered.Activation without monitoring of
passenger compartment
Disable monitoring of the passenger
compartment, e.g. when animals are
being left in the vehicle, or if the
auxiliary heater has been set for a
timed or remote controlled start
3 102.
Press and hold button e on the
remote control or electronic key; an
audible signal will sound as
confirmation.
The status will remain until the doors
are unlocked.
AlarmWhen triggered, the alarm sounds via
a separate battery-backed power
sounder, and the hazard warning
lights flash simultaneously. The
number and duration of alarm signals are stipulated by legislation.
If the vehicle battery is disconnected
or its power supply is interrupted, the
alarm siren will be triggered. First
deactivate the anti-theft alarm system
if the vehicle battery must be
disconnected.To silence the alarm siren (if
triggered) and therefore deactivate
the anti-theft alarm system, reconnect vehicle battery and unlock the vehicle
or switch on the ignition.
Immobiliser
The immobiliser is part of the ignition
switch and checks whether the
vehicle is allowed to be started with
the key being used.
The immobiliser is activated
automatically after the key has been removed from the ignition switch and
also if the key is left in the ignition
switch when the engine is turned off.
If the engine cannot be started, switch off the ignition and remove key, wait
approx. 2 seconds and then repeat
the start attempt. If start attempt is
unsuccessful, attempt to start the
engine using the spare key and seek
the assistance of a workshop.
102Climate control
Rear air conditioning fan switch
The rear air conditioning fan assists
air flow to the rear passenger
compartment via the rear air vents.
Switch on the fan while the air
conditioning system is operating to
allow cooled and dehumidified (dried) air to be distributed.
The rate of air flow is determined by
the fan.
Auxiliary heater
Coolant heater The Eberspächer engine-
independent, fuel-powered coolant
heater provides rapid heating of the
engine coolant to enable heating of
the vehicle interior without the engine
running.Caution
Do not touch the exhaust pipe. It
may be hot even after the engine
has been switched off, due to
coolant heater operation.
Before starting or programming the
system to start, turn the vehicle's
climate control system to heat and the
air distribution to V.
9Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).
Switch off when not required. Heating stops automatically after the
programmed runtime. It will also
cease to operate if the vehicle fuel
level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. The driving
time should therefore be at least as
long as the heating time. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
To ensure efficient performance,
briefly operate the auxiliary heater
once a month.
Control units The timer or remote control unit turns
the system on and off, and is used to
programme specific departure times.

To activate the remote control, press activation button X and release it
when the menu bar appears in the display. The signal indicator and
SENd appear briefly in the display,
followed by the temperature.
9 Warning
When refuelling, switch off the
remote control unit as well as the
heater!
To switch off, press and hold
activation button X to prevent
inadvertent operation.
The remote control has a maximum
range of 600 metres. The range may
be reduced due to environmental
conditions and as the battery
becomes weaker.
Driving and operating127
■ the rear doors/tailgate are notclosed correctly,
■ the vehicle had a rear end accident,
■ there are extreme temperature changes.Fuel
Fuel for diesel engines Only use diesel fuel that complies
with EN 590.
In countries outside the European
Union, use Euro-Diesel fuel with a
sulphur concentration below 50 ppm.Caution
Use of fuel that does not comply to EN 590 or similar can lead to
engine powerloss, increased wear
or engine damage and loss of
warranty.
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils, Aquazole and similar diesel-
water emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
Refuelling9 Danger
Before refuelling, switch off engine
and any external heaters with
combustion chambers. Switch off
any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling.
9 Danger
Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by a
workshop.
Caution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
