Exporting profiles
Most settings of the active profile and the
saved contacts can be exported.
This can be helpful for securing and retrieving
personal settings, before delivering the vehicle
to a workshop, e.g. Profiles can be taken to an‐
other vehicle equipped with the Personal Pro‐
file function.
Export is made via the USB port to a USB de‐
vice.
Popular file systems for USB devices are sup‐
ported. FAT32 and exFAT are the recom‐
mended formats for profile export. Other for‐
mats may not support the export.

Climate control functions in detail
Temperature Turn the ring to set the desired
temperature.
The automatic climate control reaches this
temperature as quickly as possible, if needed
by increasing the cooling or heating output,
and then keeps it constant.
Do not rapidly switch between different tem‐
perature settings. The automatic climate con‐
trol will not have sufficient time to adjust the
set temperature.
Air flow, manual
To manually adjust air flow turn off AUTO pro‐
gram first.
Turn the ring to set the desired
air volume.
Automatic climate control displays the selected
amount of air flow.
The air flow of the automatic climate control
may be reduced automatically to save battery
power.AUTO program
Press button.
Air flow, air distribution and tempera‐
ture are controlled automatically.
Depending on the selected temperature, AUTO
intensity and outside influences, the air is di‐
rected to the windshield, side windows, upper
body, and into the footwell.
The cooling function, refer to page 134, and
the automatic recirculation control, refer to
page 134, are automatically also switched on
in the AUTO program.
To reel off the program: press the button again
or manually adjust the air distribution.
Intensity of the AUTO program
With the AUTO program activated, the auto‐
matic intensity control can be changed.
Turn the ring to set the desired
intensity.
The selected intensity is displayed on the auto‐
matic climate control.

If the windows fog over, also reel on the cool‐
ing function or press the AUTO button.
Switching the system on/off Switch off Turn wheel for air quantity to the
left until the control switches off.
Switching on
Set any air volume.
Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter In external and recirculated air mode the mi‐
crofilter/activated charcoal filter filters dust,
pollen, and gaseous pollutants out of the air.
This filter should be replaced during scheduled
maintenance, refer to page 193, of your vehi‐
cle.
Ventilation▷Turn knob for continuous opening and clos‐
ing of the vents.▷Swivel the vents to alter the direction of the
vent flow, arrow.
Adjusting the ventilation
▷Ventilation for cooling:Direct vent in your direction when vehicle's
interior is too hot.▷Draft-free ventilation:
Adjust the vent to let the air flow past you.
Parked-car ventilation
The concept
The parked-car ventilation ventilates the vehi‐
cle interior and lowers its temperature, if needed.
The system can be switched on and off at any
external temperature, either directly or by us‐
ing two preset reel-on times. It remains
switched on for 30 minutes.
Open the vents to allow air to flow out.

The Coasting driving condition is enabled under
certain conditions.
Under certain conditions the engine is auto‐
matically decoupled from the transmission in
selector lever position D. The vehicle continues
traveling with the engine idling to reduce fuel
consumption. Selector lever position D remains
engaged. An indicator provides information
about the distance traveled in Coasting mode.
In addition, context-sensitive instructions are
displayed to assist with an optimized fuel con‐
sumption driving style.
The achieved extended range is displayed in
the instrument cluster.
At a glance The system includes the following MINIMAL
functions and displays:▷GREEN bonus range, refer to page 162.▷GREEN tips driving instruction, refer to
page 162.▷GREEN climate control, refer to page 161.▷MINIMALISM analyzer, refer to page 164.▷Coasting driving condition, refer to
page 163.

the right until GREEN mode is
displayed in the instrument clus‐
ter.

mode speed is exceeded.
Coasting
Fuel-efficiency can be optimized by disengag‐
ing the engine and Coasting, refer to page 163,
with the engine idling.
This function is only available in GREEN mode.
GREEN climate control
"GREEN climate control"
Climate control is set to be fuel-efficient.
By making a slight change to the set tempera‐
ture, or adjusting the rate of heating or cooling
of the car's interior fuel consumption can be
economized.
The outputs of the seat heater and the exterior
Additionally heat output to seats and exterior
mirror is reduced.
Exterior mirror heat is available when outside
temperatures are very low.
GREEN potential
The percentage of potential savings that can be
achieved with the current configuration is dis‐
played.

Coasting
The concept
The system helps to conserve fuel.
To do this, under certain conditions the engine
is automatically decoupled from the transmis‐
sion when selector lever position D is set. The
vehicle continues traveling with the engine
idling to reduce fuel consumption. Selector
lever position D remains engaged.
This driving condition is referred to as coasting.
As soon as the brake or accelerator pedal is de‐
pressed, the engine is automatically coupled to
the transmission again.
Hints
Coasting is a component of the GREEN driving
mode, refer to page 160.
Coasting is automatically activated when
GREEN mode is called via the Driving Dynamics
Control, refer to page 111.
The function is available in a certain speed
range.
A proactively driving style helps the driver to
use the function as often as possible and sup‐
ports the fuel-conserving effect of coasting.
Safety mode
The function is not available under one of the
following conditions.▷DSC OFF or TRACTION activated.▷Driving in the dynamic limit range and on
steep uphill or downhill grades.▷Battery charge status temporarily too low
or vehicle electrical system drawing exces‐
sive current.▷Cruise control activated.
Functional requirements
In GREEN mode, this function is available in a
speed range from approximately 30 mph, ap‐
prox. 50 km/h to 100 mph, approx. 160 km/h,
if the following conditions are met:
▷Accelerator pedal and brake pedal are not
operated.▷The selector lever is in selector lever posi‐
tion D.▷Engine and transmission are at operating
temperature.Seite 163Saving fuelDRIVING TIPS163
