{Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the
air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up from inside.
The quality of the passenger
compartment air deteriorates,
which may cause the vehicle
occupants to feel drowsy. In warm and very humid ambient air
conditions, the windscreen might
mist up from outside, when cold air
is directed to it. If windscreen mists
up from outside, activate
windscreen wiper.
Maximum cooling
Briefly open the windows so that hot
air can disperse quickly.

Air Vents
Adjustable Air Vents
At least one air vent must be open
while cooling is on in order to
prevent the evaporator from icing up
due to lack of air movement.
Direct the flow of air by tilting and
swivelling the slats. If you do not
want the flow, move the slats to
inside for centre vent and outside
for side vent. The vent has some air
leakages at closed position.

Driving Information
Control of a Vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running (except during
Autostop)
Many systems will not function in
this situation (e.g. brake servo unit,
power steering). Driving in this
manner is a danger to yourself and
others.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to vehicle battery
condition, the power output of the
alternator must be increased. This
will be achieved by an idle boost
which may be audible.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats
in the area of the pedals.

Steering
If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to
a system malfunction, the vehicle
can be steered but may require a
higher or lower steering effort.
Control indicator
mVariable Effort
Steering Light 072.
Caution
Vehicle equipped with electric
power steering:
If the steering wheel is turned
until it reaches the end of its
travel and is held against that
position for an extended period of
time, power steering assist may
be reduced.
If the steering assistance is used
for an extended period of time,
power assistance may be
reduced.
Normal use of the power steering
assist should return when the
system cools down.
Starting and
Operating
New Vehicle Run-In
Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system.
Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period fuel
and engine oil consumption may be
higher.
Autostop may be inhibited to allow
for charging the vehicle battery.

140 Driving and Operating
Starting the Engine
Manual gearbox: Operate clutch
Automatic transmission : Operate
brake and move the selector lever
to P or N
Do not operate accelerator pedal.
Turn the key briefly to position 3 and
release : An automatic procedure
operates the starter with a short
delay as long as the engine is
running, see Automatic Starter
Control.
Before restarting or to switch off the
engine, turn the key back to
position 0.During an Autostop, the engine can
be started by depressing the clutch
pedal.
Starting the vehicle at low
temperatures
The start of the engine without
additional heaters is possible down
to -25 °C for diesel engines and
-30 °C for petrol engines.
Diesel engines The start of the
engine without additional heaters is
possible down to -25 °C.
Petrol engines The start of the
engine without additional heaters is
possible down to -30 °C.
Required is an engine oil with the
correct viscosity, the correct fuel,
performed services and a
sufficiently charged vehicle battery.
With temperatures below -30 °C, the
automatic transmission requires a
warming phase of approx.
5 minutes.
The selector lever must be in
position P.
Automatic starter control
This function controls the engine
starting procedure. The driver does
not need to hold the key in
position 3.
Once applied, the system will go on
starting automatically until the
engine is running. Because of the
checking procedure, the engine
starts running after a short delay.
Possible reasons for a non-starting
engine:
.
clutch pedal not operated
(manual gearbox)
. time out occurred
Overrun cut-off
The fuel supply is automatically
cut-off during overrun, i.e. when the
vehicle is driven with a gear
engaged but accelerator is released.
