When the ignition is switched off, the seat heating and seat ventilation is also
switched off. If the engine is started again within 10 minutes, the driver's seat
heating and seat ventilation is automatically turned on again at the last set-
ting.WARNINGIf you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity, e.g. through
medication, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes), we rec-
ommend not to use the seat heating. There may be difficult to heal burns. If
the seat heating is used, we recommend to make regular breaks in your
journey when driving long distances, so that the body can recuperate from
the stress of the journey. Please consult your doctor, who can evaluate
your specific condition.
CAUTION
The following instructions must be observed to avoid damage to the seats.■Do not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply concentrated pressure to them.■
Do not turn on any of the seat heaters if seats are not occupied.
■
Do not switch on the relevant seat heating if the seats have objects attached
to or placed on them, for example a child seat, a bag, etc.
■
When there are additional protective covers or protective covers mounted on
each of the seats, do not turn the seat heating on.
Note
If the on-board voltage decreases, the seat heating and ventilation switches
off automatically » page 216, Automatic load deactivation .

WARNINGWhen using the 12 volt power outlets the following notes are to be ob-
served.■
The socket also works if the ignition is switched off. When leaving the ve-
hicle, never leave persons who are not completely independent, such as
children, unattended in the vehicle.
■
Improper use of the power sockets and the electrical accessories can
cause fires, burns and other serious injuries.
CAUTION
■ The sockets can only be used for the connection of approved electrical ac-
cessories with a total power consumption of up to 120 watts, otherwise the
electrical system of the vehicle may be damaged.■
Connecting appliances when the engine is not running will drain the battery
of the vehicle!
■
Switch off the devices connected to the power sockets before you switch
the ignition on or off and before starting the engine, to avoid damage from
voltage fluctuations.

100Using the system

CAUTION■The power socket can only be used for connecting approved electrical acces-
sories with a two-pin 230V plug, with a total power uptake of up to 150 watt.■
Place the connector on the electrical device into the power socket as far as it
can go to create a connection between the contacts.
■
If the connector of the electrical device is not inserted fully into the power
socket, the child safety lock might release, and the power socket be activated.
The electrical device is still not supplied with power.
■
To use the function in which the outlet is operational for about 10 minutes
after switching off the engine, a consumer must be connected to the power
outlet before stopping the engine.
■
Do not connect any lamps with neon filaments to the power socket - risk of
damaging the lamp.
■
A larger current surge may arise in some power supplies (e.g. for notebooks)
when connecting them to the power socket- this will automatically deactivate
the power socket. In this case, disconnect the power supply from the consum-
er and connect the power supply to the power socket first, followed by the
consumer.
■
The connected appliances may behave differently to when connected to the
mains.

WARNING■
The cigarette lighter also works if the ignition is switched off. When leav-
ing the vehicle, never leave persons who are not completely independent,
such as children, unattended in the vehicle. These could operate the lighter
and get burned, start a fire or damage the interior.■
Take care when using the cigarette lighter! Improper usage can case
burns. 
102Using the system

When transporting cargo the following the instructions must be adhered to
▶ When transporting heavy objects, the driving characteristics change due to
the shift in centre-of-gravity. The speed and style of driving must be adjus-
ted accordingly.
▶ The cargo is stowed in the luggage compartment. To prevent this from mov-
ing it should be secured with suitable lashing straps to the lashing eyes or
secured with fixing nets.
▶ Distribute loads as evenly as possible.
▶ Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
▶ The transported items must be stowed in such a way that no objects are able
to slip forward on sudden driving or braking manoeuvres – risk of injury!
▶ Tyre pressure is to match the load.
▶ When transporting loads in the luggage compartment that has been en-
larged by folding the rear seats forward, ensure the safety of the passengers
transported on the other rear seats .
In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic energy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling and the weight of the object.
Example: In the event of a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, an object
with a weight of 4.5 kg produces an energy, which corresponds to 20 times its
own weight. This means that it results in a weight of approx. 90 kg “ ”.
Luggage compartment light
The warning light turns on when tailgate is opened.
The warning light turns off when the tailgate is closed.
If the boot lid is open and the ignition switched off, the light will extinguish
automatically after around 10 minutes.
The luggage compartment illumination using the removable lamp » page 114.WARNING■
Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. Heavy objects were not secured sufficiently – risk of injury!■
If the cargo is tied down with unsuitable or damaged lashing straps, inju-
ries can occur in the event of braking manoeuvres or accidents.
■
Loose cargo can be thrown forward during a sudden manoeuvre or in case
of an accident and can injure the occupants or other road users.
■
Loose cargo could hit a deployed airbag and injure occupants – danger of
death!
CAUTION■ Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. - these could be damaged.■
Make sure that transported objects with sharp edges do not damage the
threads of the following devices. ■Rear window heater.
■ Rear window with an integrated antenna.
■ Integrated antenna in the rear side windows.

Lamp charges
The lamp is supplied by three rechargeable type NiMH AAA batteries.
The rechargeable batteries are constantly charged when the engine is running.
It takes approx. 3 hours to fully charge the rechargeable batteries.
Replace batteries » page 235.
CAUTION
■
If the lamp is not switched off and it is correctly inserted in the holder, the
LED diodes in the front part of the lamp C» Fig. 143 are automatically switch-
ed off.■
If the lamp is not correctly inserted into the holder, this does not light up
when the boot lid is opened and the rechargeable batteries are not charged.
■
The lamp is not watertight and must therefore be protected against mois-
ture.
Class N1 vehicles
Read and observe
and on page 106 first.
In class N1 vehicles that are not fitted with a protective grille, a lashing set that
complies with the EN 12195 standard (1-4) must be used for fastening the load.
Proper functioning of the electrical installation is essential for safe vehicle op-
eration. It is important to ensure that the electrical installation is not damaged
during the adjustment process or when the storage area is being loaded and
unloaded.
