Problems with the rear window defroster
Problem
Possible causes/consequences and
0050
0050Solutions The rear window
defroster has deactiva-
ted prematurely or can-
not be activated. The battery has not been sufficiently charged.
X Switch off any consumers that are not required, e.g. reading
lamps, interior lighting or the seat heating.
When the battery is sufficiently charged, the rear window
defroster can be activated again. Activating/deactivating air-recircula-
tion mode
General notes You can also temporarily deactivate the flow
of fresh air manually if unpleasant odors are
entering the vehicle from outside. The air
already inside the vehicle will then be recir-
culated.
If you switch on air-recirculation mode, the
windows can fog up more quickly, in particu-
lar at low temperatures. Only use air-recircu-
lation mode briefly to prevent the windows
from fogging up.
Activating/deactivating X
Turn the SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock (Y page 157).
X To activate: press the0072rocker switch
up or down.
The indicator lamp above the 0072rocker
switch lights up.
Air-recirculation mode switches on automat-
ically:
R at high outside temperatures
R at high levels of pollution (3-zone automatic
climate control only)
R in a tunnel (vehicles with a navigation sys-
tem only)
The indicator lamp above the 0072rocker
switch is not lit when automatic air-recircula- tion mode is activated. Outside air is added
after about 30 minutes. X
To deactivate: press the0072rocker
switch up or down.
The indicator lamp above the 0072rocker
switch goes out.
Air-recirculation mode deactivates automati-
cally:
R after approximately five minutes at outside
temperatures below approximately 41 ‡
(5 †)
R after approximately five minutes if cooling
with air dehumidification is deactivated
R after approximately 30 minutes at outside
temperatures above approximately 41 ‡
(5 †) if the "Cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion" function is activated Activating/deactivating the residual
heat function
General notes The residual heat function is only available
with 3-zone automatic climate control on
vehicles for Canada.
Once the engine is switched off, it is possible
to make use of the residual heat of the engine to continue heating or ventilating the front
compartment of the vehicle for approximately
30 minutes. The heating or ventilation time
depends on the interior temperature that has
been set. Operating the climate control systems
149Climate control

Activating ATTENTION ASSIST
X
Activate ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-
board computer (Y page 246).
The system determines the attention level
of the driver depending on the setting
selected:
Selection Standard Standard: the sensitivity with
which the system determines the attention
level is set to normal.
Selection Sensitive Sensitive : the sensitivity is set
higher. The attention level detected by Atten- tion Assist is adapted accordingly and the
driver is warned earlier.
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the 00D7 symbol appears in the multifunction
display in the assistance graphic display.
When ATTENTION ASSIST has been deactiva-
ted, it is automatically reactivated after the
engine has been stopped. The sensitivity
selected corresponds to the last selection
activated (standard/sensitive).
Warning in the multifunction display If fatigue or increasing lapses in concentra-
tion are detected, a warning appears in the
multifunction display:
ATTENTION ASSIST ATTENTION ASSIST
Take a Break!
Take a Break! .
In addition to the message shown in the mul-
tifunction display, you will then hear a warn-
ing tone.
X If necessary, take a break.
X Confirm the message by pressing the 0076
button on the steering wheel.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in good
time to allow yourself to rest properly. If you
do not take a break and ATTENTION ASSIST
still detects increasing lapses in concentra-
tion, you will be warned again after
15 minute sat the earliest. This will only hap-
pen if ATTENTION ASSIST still detects typical indicators of fatigue or increasing lapses in
concentration.
If a warning is output in the multifunction dis-
play, a service station search is performed in COMAND. You can select a service station
and navigation to this service station will then
begin. This function can be activated and
deactivated in COMAND. Lane Tracking package
General notes The Lane Tracking package consists of Blind
Spot Assist (Y
page 217) and Lane Keeping
Assist (Y page 219).
Blind Spot Assist General notes
Blind Spot Assist monitors the areas on either
side of the vehicle that are not visible to the
driver with two lateral, rear-facing radar sen-
sors. A warning display in the exterior mirrorsdraws your attention to vehicles detected in
the monitored area. If you then switch on the
corresponding turn signal to change lane, you will also receive an optical and audible warn- ing.
Blind Spot Assist supports you from a speed
of approximately 20 mph (30 km/h).
Important safety notes G
WARNING
Blind Spot Assist does not react to:
R vehicles overtaken too closely on the side,
placing them in the blind spot area
R vehicles which approach with a large speed
differential and overtake your vehicle
As a result, Blind Spot Assist may not give
warnings in such situations. There is a risk of an accident.
Always observe the traffic conditions care-
fully, and maintain a safe lateral distance.
Blind Spot Assist is only an aid. It may fail to
detect some vehicles and is no substitute for
attentive driving. Always ensure that there is
sufficient distance to the side for other road
users and obstacles. Driving systems

enced by the following conditions:
R the driver's seat position
R the positioning of the display image
R the general ambient light
R sunglasses with polarization filters
R wet roads
R blocking of sunlight by objects on the dis-
play cover
In the event of extreme sunlight, sections of
the display may fade. This can be reversed by
