WARNING■ The front passenger airbag should be switched off when transporting ob-
jects on the seat which was folded forwards » page 19.■
Adjust the seat backrest only when the vehicle is stationary.
■
When moving the seat backrest, make sure the seat backrest has been
properly secured – check by pulling on the seat backrest.
■
If the seat backrest is folded, passengers may only be transported on the
outer seat behind the driver.
■
When moving the seat backrest, keep limbs out of the area between the
seat and seat backrest – risk of injury!
■
Never transport the following items on the seat backrest when folded
forwards. ■ Objects that could restrict the driver's view.
■ Objects which make it impossible for the driver to control the vehicle,
e.g. if they roll under the pedals, or could protrude into the driver's zone. ■ Objects which could lead to injury to passengers due to a change of di-
rection or braking manoeuvre when accelerating sharply.

Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Switching on/off
124
Radio remote control
125
Functional requirements of the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventila-
tion)
The charge state of the vehicle battery is sufficient.
The fuel supply is adequate (the warning light is not illuminated in the
instrument cluster).
Aux. heating
The auxiliary heating can be used when both when stationary, when the en-
gine is switched off, to preheat the vehicle and also while driving (e.g. during
the heating phase of the engine).
The auxiliary heating warms up the coolant by combusting fuel from the vehi-
cle tank. This heats the air flowing into the passenger compartment (if the
blower is turned on).
The auxiliary heating also warms up the engine.
Auxiliary ventilation
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by
switching off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively de-
creased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).
123Heating and ventilation
WARNING■The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) (following as aux.
heating) must never be operated in closed rooms (e.g. garages) – risk of
poisoning!■
The auxiliary heating must not be allowed to run during refuelling – risk
of fire.
■
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating is located on the underside of
the vehicle. If you want to use the heater, do not switch off the car in pla-
ces where the exhaust fumes can come into contact with flammable mate-
rials such as dry grass, undergrowth, leaves, spilled fuel etc. -. risk of fire.
CAUTION
■ The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating, which is located on the underside
of the vehicle, must not be clogged and the exhaust flow must not be blocked.■
If the auxiliary heating is running, the vehicle battery discharges.
■
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free (e.g. of ice, snow or
leaves) to ensure that the auxiliary heating operates properly.
Note
■ The auxiliary heating only switches the blower on, if it has achieved a coolant
temperature of approx. 50 °C.■
At low outside temperatures, this can result in a formation of water vapour in
the area of the engine compartment. This is quite normal and is not an operat-
ing problem.
■
So that warm air can flow into the vehicle interior after switching on the aux.
heating, you must maintain the comfort temperature normally selected by you,
leave the fan switched on and leave the air outlet vents in open. It is recom-
mended to put the air flow in the position
or
.
Switching on/offFig. 159
Button for direct power on / off of the auxiliary heating (heating
and ventilation) on the front panel of the Climatronic / manual air condi-
tioning
Read and observe
and on page 124 first.
The auxiliary heating (heating and ventilation) (hereinafter referred to as a
heater) can be switched on and off as follows.
Switching on
▶ Manually with the symbol key on the front panel of the Climatronic or the
manual air conditioning » Fig. 159.
▶ Manually with the symbol key on the radio remote control.
▶ Via an automatically programmed and activated pre-set time in the Infotain-
ment.
▶ Automatically according to the ambient conditions »
.
Switching off
▶ Manually with the symbol key on the front panel of the Climatronic or the
manual air conditioning » Fig. 159.
▶ Manually with the symbol key on the radio remote control.
▶ Via an automatically programmed and activated pre-set time in the Infotain-
ment.
▶ Automatically when the warning light in the instrument cluster illumi-
nates.
▶ Automatically according to the ambient conditions »
.
After switching the system off, the auxiliary heating will continue running a lit-
tle while longer in order to burn the remaining fuel in the auxiliary heating.
After switching off, coolant pump still runs for a short period.

with the fingers or the palm of the hand during this process.
ABThe auxiliary heating can only be switched on/off safely using the radio re-
mote control, if the distance between the radio remote control and the vehicle
is at least 2 m.
After pressing the button, the warning light in the remote control gives the

CAUTION
■
The radio remote control comprises electronic components and must there-
fore be protected against water, severe impacts and direct sunlight.■
When the battery is fully charged, the range of the remote control is a few
hundred metres. Obstacles between the radio remote control and the vehicle,
bad weather conditions and a weaker battery can clearly reduce the range.
