Switching off The system can be deactivated as follows:
▷Press button.▷Switching off the ignition.System limits
Information WARNING
The system can react incorrectly or not at

of a port.
Limits of ultrasonic measurement
Ultrasonic measuring might not function under
the following circumstances:
▷For small children and animals.▷For persons with certain clothing, for exam‐
ple coats.▷With external interference of the ultra‐
sound, for example from passing vehicles
or loud machines.▷When sensors are dirty, iced over, damaged
or out of position.▷If cargo protrudes.▷Under certain weather conditions such as

Climate control functions in detail
Switching the system on/off Switching on
Set any air volume.
Switching off Turn wheel for air quantity to the
left until the control switches off.
Temperature Turn the ring to set the desired
temperature.
Cooling function
The air in the car's interior will be cooled and
dehumidified and, depending on the tempera‐
ture setting, warmed again.
The car's interior can only be cooled with the
engine running.
Press button.
Air conditioning is switched on or off.
Depending on the weather, the windshield may
fog up briefly when the engine is started.
The air conditioner produces condensation wa‐
ter, refer to page 162, that will exit from below
the car.
Recirculated-air mode You may respond to unpleasant odors or pollu‐
tants in the immediate environment by tempo‐
rarily suspending the supply of outside air. The
system then recirculates the air currently within
the vehicle.Press button repeatedly to select an
operating mode:▷LED off: outside air flows in continuously.▷LED on, recirculated-air mode: the supply
of outside air into the vehicle is perma‐
nently blocked.
To prevent window condensation, recirculated
air mode switches off automatically after a cer‐
tain amount of time, depending on the external
temperature.
With constant recirculated-air mode, the air
quality in the car's interior deteriorates and the
fogging of the windows increases.
If the windows fog over, switch off recirculated-
air mode and increase the air flow, if needed.
Air flow, manual Turn the ring to set the desired
air volume.
The higher the rate, the more ef‐
fective the heating or cooling will
be.
The air flow from the air conditioner may be re‐
duced automatically to save battery power.
Manual air distribution Turn the wheel to select the de‐
sired program or the desired in‐
termediate setting.

Switching the system on/off Switching on
Set any air volume.
Switching off Turn wheel for air quantity to the
left until the control switches off.
Temperature Turn the ring to set the desired
temperature.
The automatic climate control reaches this
temperature as quickly as possible, if needed
by increasing the cooling or heating output,
and then keeps it constant.
Do not rapidly switch between different tem‐
perature settings. The automatic climate con‐
trol will not have sufficient time to adjust the
set temperature.

Air conditioning is switched on or off.
Depending on the weather, the windshield may
fog up briefly when the engine is started.
The cooling function is switched on automati‐
cally with the AUTO program.
When using the automatic climate control, con‐
densation water, refer to page 162, develops
that exits underneath the vehicle.
Maximum cooling Press button.
The system is set to the lowest temper‐
ature, optimum air flow and air circulation
mode.
Air flows out of the vents to the upper body re‐
gion. The vents need to be open for this.
The function is available with external tempera‐
tures beyond approx. 32 ℉/0 ℃ and with the
engine running.
Adjust air flow with the program active.
AUTO program Press button.
Air flow, air distribution and tempera‐
ture are controlled automatically.
Depending on the selected temperature, AUTO
intensity and outside influences, the air is di‐
rected to the windshield, side windows, upper
body, and into the floor area.

Wheels and tiresVehicle features and op‐
tions
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with the
series. It also describes features that are not
necessarily available in your car, e. g., due to
the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐
tems. The respectively applicable country provi‐
sions must be observed when using the respec‐
tive features and systems.
Tire inflation pressure Safety informationThe tire characteristics and tire inflation pres‐
sure influence the following:▷The service life of the tires.▷Road safety.▷Driving comfort.
Checking the tire inflation pressure
WARNING
A tire with low or missing tire inflation
pressure impacts handling, such as steering
and braking response. There is risk of an acci‐
dent. Regularly check the tire inflation pressure,
and correct it as needed, for example twice a
month and before a long trip. ◀
Tires have a natural, consistent loss of tire infla‐
tion pressure.
Tires heat up while driving, and the tire inflation
pressure increases along with the tire's temper‐
ature. The tire inflation pressure specifications
relate to cold tires or tires with the ambient
temperature.
Only check the tire inflation pressure when the
tires are cold. This means after driving no more
than 1.25 miles/2 km or when the vehicle has
been parked for at least 2 hours.
The displays of inflation devices may under-
read by up to 0.1 bar.
For Flat Tire Monitor: after correcting the tire
inflation pressure, reinitialize the Flat Tire Moni‐
tor.
For Tire Pressure Monitor: after correcting the
tire inflation pressure, reset the Tire Pressure
Monitor.▷Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor.▷Reinitialize the Tire Pressure Monitor.
Checking the inflation pressure of the
emergency wheel
Located behind the bumper on the underside
of the vehicle is an opening for checking the
tire inflation pressure.
Pressure specifications
The tire inflation pressure table, refer to
page 181, contains all tire inflation pressure
specifications for the specified tire sizes at the
ambient temperature. The tire inflation pres‐
sure values apply to tire sizes approved by the
manufacturer of the vehicle for the vehicle
type.
To identify the correct tire inflation pressure,
please note the following:

▷Tire sizes of your vehicle.▷Maximum permitted driving speed.
Tire inflation pressures up to 100 mph/
160 km/h
For speeds of up to 100 mph/160 km/h and for
optimum driving comfort, note the pressure
values in the tire inflation pressure table, refer
to page 181, and adjust as necessary.
These pressure values can also be found on the
tire inflation pressure label on the driver's door
pillar.
Do not exceed a speed of 100 mph/160 km/h.
