Engine and passenger compartment heater*
Preconditioning prepares the car's heater, engine and passenger compartment beforedeparture so that both wear and energyneeds during the journey are reduced. The heater can be started directly (p. 130) or with a timer (p. 130). The heater cannot start if the outside tem- perature exceeds 15 °C. At –5 °C or lower themaximum running time of the heater is 50minutes.
WARNING
Do not use the fuel-driven heater indoors. Exhaust gases are secreted.
NOTE
When the fuel-driven auxiliary heater is active there may be smoke from the right-hand wheel housing, which is perfectlynormal.
Refuelling
Warning label on fuel filler flap.
WARNING
Fuel which spills out could be ignited. Switch off the fuel-driven auxiliary heaterbefore starting to refuel. Check in the combined instrument panel that the heater is switched off. The heatsymbol is shown when it is operating.
Parking on a hillIf the car is parked on a steep hill, the front of the car should point downhill to ensure thatthere is a supply of fuel to the fuel-drivenheater.
Battery and fuelIf the battery has insufficient charge or thefuel level is too low, the heater will beswitched off automatically and a message appears on the information display. Acknowl-edge the message by pressing the indicatorstalk (p. 100)
OK button once.
IMPORTANT
Repeated use of the heater combined with short journeys leads to the battery dis-charging and consequential starting prob-lems. The car should be driven for the same time as the heater is used to ensure that thecar's battery is recharged adequately toreplace the energy consumed by theheater when it is used on a regular basis.The heater is used for a maximum of 50minutes each time.

Active chassis - Four C*
Active chassis "Four-C" (Continously Controlled Chassis Concept), regulates thecharacteristics of the shock absorbers so thatthe car's driving characteristics can beadjusted. There are three settings: Comfort,
Sport and Advanced .
ComfortThis setting means that the car is perceivedas being more comfortable on rough anduneven road surfaces. Shock absorption issoft and the movement of the body is smoothand gentle.
SportThis setting means that the car is perceivedas being more sporty and is recommendedfor more active driving. Steering response isfaster than in the Comfort mode. Shockabsorption is harder and the body follows theroad in order to reduce rolling during corner-ing.
AdvancedThis setting is only recommended on veryeven and smooth road surfaces. The shock absorbers are optimised for maxi- mum roadholding and rolling in bends is fur-ther minimised.
Operation
Control buttons.
The required chassis setting is selected using the centre console buttons. The setting usedwhen the engine was switched off is re-acti-vated when the engine is next started. Theexception is Advanced - it is restarted asSport.
Stability and traction control system (DSTC)
The stability and traction control system, DSTC (Dynamic Stability & Traction Control),helps the driver to avoid skidding andimproves the car's traction. The activation of the system during braking may be noticed as a throbbing sound. Thecar may accelerate slower than expectedwhen the accelerator pedal is depressed. The system consists of the following func- tions: • Active Yaw Control
• Spin Control
• Traction control system
• Engine drag control - EDC
• Corner Traction Control - CTC
• Trailer Stability Assist* - TSA
Active Yaw ControlThe function checks the driving and brake force of the wheels individually in order tostabilise the car.
Spin ControlThe function prevents the driving wheels fromspinning against the road surface duringacceleration.
