Optimum use of 3-zone automatic cli-
mate control
Climate control system The 3-zone automatic climate control is only
available on vehicles for Canada.
The following contains instructions and rec-
ommendations to enable you to get the most
out of your 3-zone automatic climate control.
R Activate climate control using the 0058and
005A buttons. The indicator lamps above
the 0058 and005A buttons light up.
R In automatic mode, you can also set the
climate mode (FOCUS/MEDIUM/
DIFFUSE). The MEDIUM level is recommen-
ded.
R Set the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †).
R Only use the "Windshield defrosting" func-
tion briefly until the windshield is clear
again.
R Only use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g.
if there are unpleasant outside odors or
when in a tunnel. The windows could oth-
erwise fog up, since no fresh air is drawn
into the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
R Use the ZONE function to adopt the tem-
perature settings on the driver's side for
the front-passenger side and the rear com-
partment as well. The indicator lamp above the 00D6 button goes out.
R Use the residual heat function if you want to
heat or ventilate the vehicle interior when
the ignition is switched off. The residual
heat function can only be activated or deac-
tivated with the ignition switched off.
R Vehicles with COMAND: if you change the
settings of the climate control system, the
climate status display appears for approx-
imately three seconds at the bottom of the
screen in the COMAND display. See also
the separate COMAND operating instruc-
tions. You will see the current settings of
the various climate control functions. ECO start/stop function During automatic engine switch-off, the cli-
mate control system only operates at a
reduced capacity. If you require the full cli-
mate control output, you can switch off the
ECO start/stop function by pressing the ECO button (Y page 162). Operating the climate control sys-

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 deactivate the flow of fresh air if
unpleasant odors are entering the vehicle
from outside. The air already inside the vehi-
cle will then be recirculated.
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.
Switching on/off X
Turn the SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock (Y page 157).
X To activate: press the0072button.
The indicator lamp above the 0072button
lights up.
i Dual-zone automatic climate control: air-
recirculation mode is automatically activa-
ted at high outside temperatures.
3-zone automatic climate control: air-recir- culation mode is automatically activated at
high levels of pollution or at high outside
temperatures.
When air-recirculation mode is activated
automatically, the indicator lamp above the 0072 button does not light up. Outside air is
added after about 30 minutes.
X To deactivate: press the0072button.
The indicator lamp above the 0072button
goes out. i
Air-recirculation mode deactivates auto-
matically:
R after approximately five minutes at out-
side temperatures below approximately
41 ‡ (5 †)
R after approximately five minutes if cool-
ing with air dehumidification is deactiva-
ted
R after approximately 30 minutes at out-
side temperatures above approximately
41 ‡ (5 †) if the "Cooling with air dehu-
midification" function is activated Activating/deactivating the residual
heat function
General notes The residual heat function is only available in
vehicles for Canada with 3-zone automatic
climate control.
It is possible to make use of the residual heat
of the engine to continue heating the vehicle
for approximately 30 minutes after the engine
has been switched off. The heating time
depends on the set interior temperature.
