WARNINGInstructions for devices connected to the sockets.■Safely stow all devices during the journey to prevent them from being
thrown around the interior in the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or
an accident – risk of death!■
The devices may warm up during operation – risk of injury or fire! If the
device becomes too hot, switch it off immediately and disconnect it from
the power supply.
WARNINGWhen using the 12-volt sockets, the following notes are to be observed.■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 socket can only be used for the connection of approved electrical acces-
sories with a total power consumption of up to 120 watts, otherwise the elec-
trical 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.

Functional requirements of the auxiliary heating (aux. heating and ventilation) 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.
The heater is switched on or off automatically depending on the ambient con-
ditions to give the best possible conditions for the engine running and the in-
terior heating.
For vehicles with gasoline engines, the automatic switching on and off of the
heater can be disabled in a specialist workshop.
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).
