superimposed over the currently
displayed menu.
The electronic climate control system
is only fully operational when the
engine is running.
Heating will not be fully effective until
the engine has reached normal
operating temperature.
Automatic mode AUTO
The system automatically controls the
fan speed, air delivery, air
conditioning, and recirculation in
order to heat or cool the vehicle to the desired temperature.
When the AUTO indicator light is on,
the system is in full automatic
operation.
If the air delivery mode, fan speed,
recirculation, or air conditioning
setting is adjusted, the AUTO
indicator turns off.
To improve fuel efficiency and to cool
the vehicle faster, recirculation may
be automatically selected in warmweather. The recirculation light will
not come on. Press 4 to select
recirculation; press it again to select
outside air.
To turn off the system, press power m.
Basic setting for maximum comfort: ● Press AUTO. The LED in the
button illuminates to indicate activation.
● Open all air vents to allow optimised air distribution in
Automatic mode.
● Set the preselected temperature.
Recommended temperature is
22 °C.
Temperature preselection Set temperature to the desired value.
It is indicated on the display in the
temperature control.
For reasons of comfort, change
temperature only in small increments.
If the minimum temperature Lo is set,
the climate control system runs at
maximum cooling, if cooling A/C is
active.

Control of the vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running
Many systems will not function in this situation (e.g. brake servo unit, power
steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others.
All systems function during an
Autostop.
Stop-start system 3 106.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to battery condition, the
power output of the generator must be increased. This will be achieved by an idle boost which may be audible.
A message appears in the Driver
Information Centre.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in
the area of the pedals.

104Driving and operatingUse only floor mats, which fit properly
and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.
Driving downhill
Engage a gear when driving downhill to ensure that sufficient brake
pressure is available.
Steering If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.
Control indicator c 3 70.Caution
Vehicle equipped with electric
power steering:
If the steering wheel is turned until it reaches the end of its travel and
is held against that position for an
extended period of time, power
steering assistance may be
reduced.
If the steering assistance is used
for an extended period of time,
power assistance may be
reduced.
Power steering assistance should
return back to normal when the
system has cooled down.Starting and operating
New vehicle running-in Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system.
Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period, fuel and engine oil consumption may be
higher.
Autostop may be inhibited to allow for
charging of the vehicle battery.

Remove key from ignition switch and
turn steering wheel until it engages.
Retained power off The following electronic systems areoperable until the driver's door is
opened or at the latest for ten minutes
after the ignition is switched off:
● power windows
● power outlets
● power sunroof
Power to the Infotainment system will continue to operate for 30 minutes or
until the key is removed from the
ignition switch, regardless of whether
any door is opened.Starting the engine
Turn key to position 1 to release the
steering wheel lock.
Manual transmission: operate clutch
and brake pedal.
Manual transmission automated:
operate brake pedal.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal. Turn key briefly to position 3 and
release: an automatic procedure
operates the starter after a brief
delay, until the engine is running. See
"Automatic Starter Control".

Driving and operating109Parking9Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply the parking brake. Activate the manual
parking brake without pressing the release button. Apply as
firmly as possible on a downhill slope or uphill slope. Depress
brake pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear before removing the ignition key. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear
before removing the ignition
key. Turn the front wheels
towards the kerb.
● Close the windows and the sunroof.
● Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch. Turn the
steering wheel until the
steering wheel lock is felt to
engage.
For vehicles with manual
transmission automated, the key
can only be removed from the
ignition switch when the parking
brake is applied.
● Lock the vehicle.
● Activate the anti-theft alarm system.
● The engine cooling fans may run
after the engine has been
switched off 3 133.
Caution
After running at high engine
speeds or with high engine loads,
operate the engine briefly at a low
load or run in neutral for
approx. 30 seconds before
switching off, in order to protect
the turbocharger.
Notice
In the event of an accident with airbag deployment, the engine is
switched off automatically if the
vehicle comes to a standstill within a
certain time.
