The MAXI DOT display provides you with information about the current operat-
ing state of your vehicle. In addition, it provides information, depending on ve-
hicle equipment, about the radio, multi-function display (MFA), telephone and
Infotainment. Furthermore, it allows the adjustment of some other features of
your vehicle.
WARNINGConcentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver, you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle.

Headlight cleaning system
73
The windscreen wipers and the wash system only operate if the ignition is
switched on and the bonnet and boot are closed 1)
.
Winter setting of the windscreen wiper
If the windscreen wipers are in rest position, they cannot be folded out from
the windscreen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wip-
ers in winter so that they can be folded out from the windscreen easily.
▶ Switch on the windscreen wipers.
▶ Switch off the ignition.
The windscreen wipers remain in the position in which they were when
switching off the ignition.
The service position can also be used as a winter position » page 195.
WARNING■
Properly maintained windscreen wiper blades are essential for clear visi-
bility and safe driving » page 195.■
Do not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. The window washer fluid could other-
wise freeze on the windscreen and restrict the view to the front. 
AB1)
On vehicles which do not have a contact switch for the bonnet, the windshield wiper and wash system
operates also when the bonnet is opened.

rest in the direction of arrow 2.›
Check for yourself that the seat backrest is engaged by pulling on it.
›
Remove the tongue of the lock from the safety position.
WARNING■ After folding back the seat, the seat belts must be ready for use.■The seat backrests must be securely engaged so that objects from the
boot cannot slip into the passenger compartment on sudden braking – risk
of injury!■
When folding the seat backrest always make sure that it has safely
locked into position, this is confirmed by the position and a visible marking
on the cover of the lever.

94Using the system

WARNING■For your own safety and that of other road users, ensure that all the win-
dows are free of ice, snow and misting. The blower should always be on to
prevent the windows from misting up.■
Under certain circumstances, air at a temperature of about 5 °C can flow
out of the vents when the cooling system is switched on.
CAUTION
■ The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free of e.g. ice, snow or
leaves to ensure that the heating and cooling system operates properly.■
After switching on the cooling Condensation from the evaporator of the air
conditioning may drip down and form a puddle below the vehicle. This is not a
leak!
■
If the coolant temperature is too high, the cooling system is switched off to
ensure that the engine cools down.

During operation of the manual air conditioning, an increase in engine idle
speed may occur under certain circumstances in order to ensure sufficient
heating comfort.

cator light in the button  is lit).
The temperature can be set between +18 °C and +26 °C. The temperature is
regulated automatically within this range.

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). 
