day and the time (hour and minute) can be set for switching on the auxiliary
heating and ventilation. An empty position can be found between Sunday
and Monday when selecting the day. If this empty position is selected, the
activation is performed without taking into account the day.

After the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) automatically activates at the set
time, it is necessary to pre-set a time again.
If the menu item Back is selected or no changes are made on the display for
longer than 10 seconds, the set values are stored, but the pre-set time is not

The transmitter and the battery are housed in the housing of the remote con-
trol. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle.
When the battery is fully charged, the range of the remote control is a few
hundred metres. Obstacles between the remote control and the vehicle, bad
weather conditions and a weaker battery in the remote control can clearly re-
duce the range.
To switch the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) on or off, hold the remote control
vertical, with the aerial

pointing upwards. The antenna must not be covered
with the fingers or the palm of the hand during this process.
The auxiliary heating can only be switched on/off safely using the radio re-
mote control, if the distance between the radio remote control and the vehicle
is at least 2 m.
After pressing the button, the warning light in the remote control gives the
user different kinds of feedback:

This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Activating/deactivating
158
Storing and maintaining speed
159
Changing the stored speed
159
Switching off temporarily
159
The Cruise Control System (CCS) maintains a set speed, more than 25 km/h,
without you having to actuate the accelerator pedal.
This is only possible within the range which is permitted by the power output and braking power of the engine.
The warning light  illuminates in the instrument cluster when the cruise con-
trol system is switched on.
WARNING■ For safety reasons, the cruise control system must not be used in dense
traffic or on unfavourable road surfaces (such as icy roads, slippery roads,
loose gravel) – risk of accident!■
The saved speed may only be resumed if it is not too high for the current
traffic conditions.
■
Always deactivate the cruise control system after use to prevent the sys-
tem being switched on unintentionally.
CAUTION
■ The cruise control system is not able to maintain a constant speed when
driving in areas with steeper gradients. The weight of the vehicle increases the
speed at which it travels. In such cases, select a lower gear or brake the vehi-
cle using the footbrake.■
The cruise control system cannot be activated when first gear or reverse
gear is selected (vehicles with manual transmission).
■
The cruise control system cannot be activated when the selector lever is in
positions P, N or R (vehicles with automatic transmission).
■
The cruise control system may automatically switch off when some brake as-
sist systems (e.g. ESC) intervene, when the maximum permissible engine
speed is exceeded, etc.

Towing the vehicle
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Front towing eye
209
Rear towing eye
210
Vehicles with a tow hitch
210
Vehicles with manual transmission may be towed in with a tow bar or a tow
rope or with the front or rear wheels raised.
Vehicles with automatic transmission may be towed in with a tow bar or a tow
rope or with the front wheels raised. If the vehicle is raised at rear, the auto-
matic gearbox is damaged!
A tow bar is the safest way of towing a vehicle and also minimises any shocks.
Only use a tow rope if a suitable tow bar is not available.
When towing, the following guidelines must be observed.
Driver of the tow vehicle
›
Release the clutch particularly gently when starting off or depress the accel-
erator particularly gently if the vehicle is fitted with an automatic gearbox.
›
On vehicles with a manual transmission, only push down on the accelerator
pedal once the rope is taught.
The maximum towing speed is 50 km/h.
Driver of the towed vehicle
›
Switch on the ignition so that the steering wheel is not locked and so that
the turn signal lights, horn, windscreen wipers and windscreen washer sys-
tem can be used.
›
Take the vehicle out of gear or move the selector lever into position N if the
vehicle is fitted with an automatic gearbox.
Please note that the brake servo unit and power steering only operate if the
engine is running. If the engine is not running, significantly more physical force
is required to depress the brake pedal and steer the vehicle. 
