Ensure that the lighting and the turn signal system are functioning proper-
ly.
Ensure that the function of the wipers and the condition of the wiper
blades are free of any defects.
Ensure that all of the windows offer good visibility to the outside.
Adjust the rear-view mirror so that vision to the rear is guaranteed.
Ensure that the mirrors are not covered.
Check the tyre inflation pressure.
Check the engine oil, brake fluid and coolant level.
Secure all items of luggage.
Do not exceed the permissible axle loads and permissible gross weight of
the vehicle.
Close all doors as well as the bonnet and boot lid.
Ensure that no objects can obstruct the pedals.
Protect children in suitable child seats with correctly fastened seat
belts » page 19 , Transporting children safely .

The driver is fully responsible for himself and his occupants. If your driving
safety is effected, you place yourself and the oncoming traffic at risk.
The following guidelines must therefore be observed. Do not become distracted from concentrating on the traffic situation, e.g.
by your passengers or mobile phone calls.
Never drive when your driving ability is impaired, e.g. due to medication, al-
cohol or drugs.
Keep to the traffic regulations and the permissible speed limit.
Always adjust the driving speed to the road, traffic and weather condi-
tions.
Take regular breaks on long journeys – at least every two hours.

CAUTION■Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric
windows.■
If windows are frozen, always remove ice » page 99, Windows and external
mirrors before operating the electrical power windows. The window seals and
the electrical power window mechanism can otherwise be damaged.
■
Always make sure that the windows are closed when you leave the locked
vehicle.
For the sake of the environment
At high speeds you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily high fuel consumption.
Note
When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventilation
system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. With the windows open, dust
and other dirt can get into the vehicle. In addition, wind noises can occur at
certain speeds.

Switching the rear window heater on/off
When the heater is switched on, a lamp illuminates inside the button.
The heating only works when the engine is running.
The heater automatically switches off after approximately 10 minutes.
For the sake of the environment
The heating should be switched off as soon as the window is de-iced or free
from mist. The reduced current consumption will have a favourable effect on
fuel economy.
Note
If the on-board voltage drops, the heater switches off automatically, in order
to provide sufficient electrical energy for the engine control » page 116, Auto-
matic load deactivation .Sun visorsFig. 41

The wiper and washer system provide a good view through the windscreen or
rear window.
The windscreen wipers and the windscreen washer system only operate if the
ignition is switched on.
Top up with windscreen wiper fluid » page 109. 
12AB52Using the system

Letting go of the operating lever will cause the windscreen wash system to
stop and the wiper to continue for another 1-3 wiper strokes (depending on
the spraying duration). The operating lever remains in position 6
.
Note
The rear window is wiped once automatically if the windscreen wipers are on
when reverse gear is selected.

Interior mirror
54
Exterior mirrors
54WARNING■ Make sure that the mirror is not covered by ice, snow, mist or other ob-
jects.■
Convex (curved outward) or aspheric exterior mirrors increase the field of
vision. They do, however, make objects appear smaller in the mirror. These
mirrors are therefore only of limited use for estimating distances to the fol-
lowing vehicles.
■
Whenever possible use the interior mirror for estimating the distances to
the following vehicles.

Seats and head restraints
Seats and head restraints
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Adjusting the front seats
56
Head restraints - adjusting height
56
Headrests - removing and installing
57
The driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the pedals can be fully
pressed to the floor with slightly bent legs.
The seat backrest on the driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the upper point of the steering wheel can be easily reached with slightly bent
arms.
Correct adjustment of the seats is particularly important for the following: › Reaching the controls safely and quickly,
› A relaxed and fatigue-free body position.
› Achieving the maximum protection offered by the seat belts and the airbag
system.
WARNING■ Only adjust the driver's seat when the vehicle is stationary – risk of acci-
dent!■
Caution when adjusting the seat! You may suffer injuries or bruises as a
result of adjusting the seat without paying proper attention.
■
Never carry more people than there are number of seats in the vehicle.
■
Do not carry any objects on the front passenger seat except objects de-
signed for this purpose (e.g. child seat) – risk of accident!
Note
After a certain time, play can develop within the adjustment mechanism of the
backrest angle.55Seats and head restraints
