When the auxiliary heating is switched on,
make sure that:
R no flammable materials come into contact
with hot vehicle components
R the exhaust gas can escape from the
exhaust pipe unhindered
R the exhaust gas does not come into contact
with flammable materials.
The auxiliary heating and the exhaust gas out-
let are situated behind the right-hand front
wheel.
! Operating the auxiliary heating/ventila-
tion draws on the vehicle battery. After you
have heated or ventilated the vehicle a
maximum of two times, drive for a longer
distance.
Switch the auxiliary heating on regularly once
a month for about ten minutes.
The auxiliary heating heats the air in the vehi-
cle interior to the set temperature. This
occurs without using the heat of the running
engine. The auxiliary heating is operated
directly using the vehicle's fuel. For this rea-
son, the tank content must be at least at
reserve fuel level to ensure that the auxiliary
heating functions.
The auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation
automatically adjusts to changes in temper-
ature and weather conditions. For this rea-
son, the auxiliary heating could switch from
ventilation mode to heating mode or from
heating mode to ventilation mode.
The auxiliary heating switches off when the
engine is switched off. The auxiliary ventila-
tion switches off when you turn the key to key position 2(Y page 161).
The auxiliary heating switches off automati-
cally after 50 minutes. This time limit can be
altered. To do this, visit a qualified specialist
workshop.
You cannot use the auxiliary ventilation to
cool the vehicle interior to a temperature
lower than the outside temperature. Before switching on X
Turn the key to position 2in the ignition
lock (Y page 161).
X Set the desired temperature using the
w rocker switch on the front control
panel or using COMAND Online (see the
separate operating instructions).
If you do not alter the temperature before
switching on the auxiliary heating or auxiliary
ventilation, the last temperature setting will
be adopted.
Auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation can
also be switched on if the manually set cli-
mate control is activated. Optimum comfort
can be attained when the system is set to
automatic mode. Set the temperature to
22 †.
You can switch the auxiliary heating or auxil-
iary ventilation on or off:
R using the rocker switch on the centre con-
sole (Y page 150)
R using the remote control (Y page 151)
The on-board computer can be used to spec-
ify up to three departure times, one of which
may be preselected:
R using the remote control (Y page 151)
R using COMAND Online (see the separate
operating instructions)

Your vehicle comes with one remote control.
You may use two additional remote controls
for your vehicle. For more information, please
contact a qualified specialist workshop.
Store the remote control for the auxiliary
heating so that the auxiliary heating cannot
be switched on unintentionally. In particular,
ensure that the remote control for the auxili-
ary heating is kept out of the reach of chil-
dren. The remote control has a range of approx-
imately 300 metres. This range is reduced by:
R sources of radio interference
R solid objects between the remote control
and the vehicle
R the remote control being in an unfavoura-
ble position in relation to the vehicle
R transmitting from an enclosed space
If the remote control battery is low, the bat-
tery symbol on the left of the display is shown as empty. Replace the remote control battery and observe the important safety notes when
doing so (Y page 153).

WARNING
Very hot or very cold air can flow from the air vents. This could result in burns or frostbite in the immediate vicinity of the air vents. There
is a risk of injury.
Make sure that all vehicle occupants always
maintain a sufficient distance to the air out-
lets. If necessary, redirect the airflow to
another area of the vehicle interior. In order to ensure the direct flow of fresh air
through the air vents into the vehicle interior,
please observe the following notes:
R keep the air inlet between the windscreen
and the bonnet free of blockages, such as
ice, snow or leaves
R never cover the vents or ventilation grilles
