69Lights and visibility

The mirror dimming is controlled by the light incident on the sensors on the
front and back of the mirror.
When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the
mirror moves back into the basic position (not dimmed).
Do not attach external devices (e.g. navigation systems) on to the windscreen or in the vicinity of the interior mirror »
.
WARNING■
The illuminated display of an external navigation device can lead to op-
erational faults to the automatic dimming interior mirror – risk of accident.■
Automatic mirror dimming only operates correctly if the light striking the
sensor is not affected by other objects.

If the symbol  illuminates at the end of the numeric scale then the Climatronic
works with maximum heating (temperature setting above +26 °C).
There is no automatic temperature control in the two end positions.
Controlling blower
The Climatronic system controls the blower stages automatically in line with the interior temperature. However, the blower stages can be manually adap-
ted to suit your particular needs.
If the blower speed is reduced to a minimum, Climatronic is switched off.
The set blower speed is displayed above the symbol button 
when the re-
spective number of indicator lights come on.WARNING■ Do not switch off the Climatronic system for longer than necessary.■Switch on the Climatronic system as soon as the windows mist up.
CAUTION
Do not cover the interior temperature sensor B » Fig. 124 as this could impair
the functioning of the Climatronic.
Note
■ If the windscreen mists up, press the symbol button . Press the button
 once the windscreen has demisted.■
During operation of the Climatronic, an increase in engine idle speed can oc-
cur under certain circumstances in order to ensure adequate heating comfort.
Climatronic - automatic operation
Read and observe
and on page 105 first.
The automatic mode is used in order to maintain a constant temperature andto demist the windows in the interior of the car.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button  lights up, the Cli-
matronic operates in “HIGH”-mode.
Upon pressing the  button again, the Climatronic switches to “LOW”-mode
and the indicator light in the top left corner lights up. The Climatronic uses on-
ly in this mode the lower blower speed. However taking into account the noise
level, this is more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of the air
conditioning system is reduced particularly if the vehicle is fully occupied.
By pressing the button  again, it is changed to “HIGH”-mode.
Automatic mode can be switched off by pressing one of the buttons for the air
distribution or by increasing/decreasing the blower speed. The temperature
regulation is continued.
Note
Climatronic is set to the “HIGH” mode at the factory.
Air distribution control
Read and observe
and on page 105 first.
The recirculation mode prevents contaminated outside air getting into the in-
terior of the vehicle.
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle and then
fed back into the interior.
Heating and manual air conditioning system

To turn the recirculation mode on or off, press the Symbol key

The air recirculation mode is automatically turned off by turning the air distri-
bution control

to position 

Recirculated air mode can be switched on again from this position by repeat-
edly pressing the symbol button .

Climatronic has an air quality sensor for the detection of the pollutant concen-
tration in the sucked-in air.
If a considerable increase in concentration of pollutants is recognised by the
air quality sensor, recirculated air mode will temporarily be switched on.
If the concentration of pollutants decreases to the normal level, the air distri-
bution control is automatically switched off so that fresh air can be guided into
the vehicle interior. 
107Heating and ventilation

WARNING■The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) (hereinafter refer-
red to as aux. heating) must never be operated in closed rooms (e.g. garag-
es) – 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. If the auxili-
ary heating and ventilation has been operated several times over a longer peri-
od, the vehicle must be driven a few kilometres in order to recharge the vehi-
cle battery.
■
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 

If the auxiliary heating has not already been switched off, it switches off auto-
matically after the running time set in the

After switching off the auxiliary heating, the coolant pump still runs for a short
period.
