Climate control919Warning
Do not attach any objects to the
slats of the air vents. Risk of
damage and injury in case of an
accident.
Fixed air vents
Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door windows and in the foot wells.
Rear passenger compartment
air vents
The air flow is biased towards the
central and right hand air vents for
optimum distribution.Maintenance
Air intake
The air intake in front of the
windscreen in the engine
compartment must be kept clear to
allow air intake. Remove any leaves,
dirt or snow.
Pollen filter
The pollen filter cleans dust, soot,
pollen and spores from the air
entering the vehicle through the air
intake.
Air conditioning regular
operation
In order to ensure continuously
efficient performance, cooling must
be operated for a few minutes once a month, irrespective of the weather
and time of year. Operation with
cooling is not possible when outside
temperature is too low.
Vehicle care119
Remove the caps and ensure funnel
is securely located onto the filler pipe.
Ensure the funnel is replaced
securely together with both end caps
fitted.
A stabilization of the engine oil
consumption will not take place until
the vehicle has been driven several
thousand miles. Only then can the
actual degree of consumption be
established.
If consumption exceeds more than 0.5 litres every 600 miles after this
running-in period, consult a
workshop.
Capacities 3 162, Engine oil level
monitor 3 67.
Fit the cap on straight and tighten it.
Engine air filter Engine air flow indicator
On certain models, an indicator is
located in the engine induction
system and indicates if the air-intake
to the engine is restricted.
Clear=No restrictionRed tell-tale=RestrictedIf the red tell-tale is displayed when
the engine is running, consult a
workshop.
Engine coolant
The coolant provides freeze
protection down to approx. -28 °C.Caution
Only use approved antifreeze.
Coolant level
Caution
Too low a coolant level can cause engine damage.
Vehicle care123
Place a container underneath the
filter housing. Loosen the knurled
screws on the filter cover and on the
lower part of the filter by approx. one
turn, to drain off the water.
The filter is drained as soon as diesel fuel emerges from the knurled screw
at the bottom. Retighten the two
screws.
Check diesel fuel filter at shorter
intervals if the vehicle is subjected to
extreme operating conditions.
Diesel fuel system
bleedingIf the fuel tank has been run dry, it will be necessary to air vent or bleed the
diesel fuel system.
Fill the tank with fuel and proceed as
follows:
1. Remove the protective cover from
the in-line supply pump.
2. Place a suitable container underneath the fuel filter vent
screw to collect fuel.
3. Loosen the vent screw (arrowed) by one turn.
4. Manually operate the in-line supply pump slowly and steadily
until fuel discharging from the
loosened vent screw is free of air
bubbles.
5. Retighten the vent screw.
6. Refit the protective cover to the in-
line supply pump.Wiper blade replacement
Wiper blades on the windscreen
Lift wiper arm, press retaining clip
towards wiper arm and detach wiper
blade.
Wiper blade on the rear window Lift wiper arm, rotate wiper blade and
detach.
