It monitors:■ Doors, tailgate, bonnet
■ Passenger compartment
■ Load compartment
■ Ignition
■ Interruption of alarm siren power supply
Activation
All doors and the bonnet must be
closed.
Press button e to activate anti-theft
alarm system. Hazard warning lights flash twice to confirm activation.
If the hazard warning lights do notflash upon activation, a door or the
bonnet is not fully closed.
Notice
Changes to the vehicle interior, e.g.
the use of seat covers, and open
windows, could impair the function
of passenger compartment
monitoring.
Deactivation
Unlocking the vehicle or switching on the ignition deactivates the anti-theft
alarm system. Hazard warning lights flash once to confirm deactivation.
Notice
If the alarm has been triggered,
unlocking the vehicle with the key
will not stop the alarm siren. To stop
the siren, switch on the ignition. The hazard warning lights will not flash
upon deactivation if the alarm has
been triggered.
Activation without monitoring of
passenger compartment
Switch off monitoring of the
passenger compartment when
people or animals are being left in thevehicle, or if the auxiliary heater
3 102 is set for a timed or remote
controlled start.
Depending on vehicle configuration:
■ press and hold button e, or
■ switch ignition on and off twice quickly, then close doors and
activate the anti-theft alarm system.
An audible signal will sound as
confirmation.
The status will remain until the doors
are unlocked.

BusRear air vents
Additional air conditioning is supplied
to the rear passenger compartment
via the overhead air vents.
Fan speed
Adjust the air flow to select the
desired speed.
turn clockwise=increase air flowturn anti-clock‐
wise=decrease air flow
Combi
Additional air conditioning is supplied to the rear passenger compartment
via the air vents located above the
driver and front passenger
compartment.
With the front passenger
compartment air conditioning system
switched on, adjust the air flow to
select the desired speed.
Ensure the air vents are open when in
use, to prevent ice forming in the
system due to lack of air movement.
Auxiliary heater
Coolant heater The Eberspächer engine-
independent, fuel-powered coolant
heater provides rapid heating of the
engine coolant to enable heating of
the vehicle interior without the engine running.9 Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).

Climate control103
Before starting or programming the
system to start, turn the vehicle's
climate control system to heat and the
air distribution to V.
Switch off when not required. Heating stops automatically after the
programmed runtime. It will also
cease to operate if the vehicle fuel
level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. The driving
time should therefore be at least as
long as the heating time. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
To ensure efficient performance,
briefly operate the auxiliary heater
once a month.
Control units
The timer or remote control unit turns the system on and off, and is used to
programme specific departure times.Timer1 X

The control buttons operate
identically to the timer unit described
previously.
To activate the remote control, press activation button X and release it
when the menu bar appears in the display. The signal indicator and
SENd appear briefly in the display,
followed by the temperature.

104Climate control9Warning
When refuelling, switch off the
remote control unit as well as the
heater!
To switch off, press and hold
activation button X to prevent
inadvertent operation.
The remote control has a maximum
range of 600 metres. The range may
be reduced due to environmental
conditions and as the battery
becomes weaker.
In addition to the remote control unit,
the heating can also be switched on
for 30 minutes, or off, using the button
on the instrument panel.
Battery replacement
Replace the battery when the range
of the remote control is reduced or when the battery charge symbol
flashes.
Open the cover using a coin and
replace the battery (CR 2430 or equivalent), ensuring the new battery
is correctly installed with the positive
( < ) side facing the positive terminals.
Replace the cover securely.
Dispose of old batteries in
accordance with environmental
regulations.Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.

Driving and operating133
diesel, Aquazole and similar diesel-
water emulsions. Diesel fuels must not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
The flow and filterability of diesel fuels are temperature-dependent. When
temperatures are low, refuel with
diesel fuel with guaranteed winter
properties.
Diesel fuel filter 3 146, diesel fuel
system bleeding 3 146.
Refuelling9 Danger
Before refuelling, switch off engine
and any external heaters with
combustion chambers. Switch off
any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling.
9 Danger
Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by a
workshop.
Caution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
The fuel tank filler neck with bayonet
cap is located on the left front side of
the vehicle.
The fuel filler flap can only be opened
if the vehicle is unlocked and the door is opened. Open the fuel filler flap by
hand.
Remove the fuel filler cap by turning
it anti-clockwise.
The fuel filler cap can be hung on the lower hook of the fuel filler flap.
For refuelling, fully insert the pump
nozzle and switch it on.
After automatic cut-off, it can be
topped-up with max. two doses of fuel.
Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
