Heating and cooling
Air conditioner
Description
The air conditioner heats, cools and dehumidifies
the air inside the vehicle. It operates most effec­
tively with the windows closed. If the vehicle has
been standing in the sun, it may cool down faster
if you open the windows briefly to let the hot air
escape.
Pollution filter
The pollution filter removes impurities, such as
dust and pollen, from the air.
Key-coded settings
Certain settings will be automatically stored and
assigned to the remote control key in use.
® For the sake of the environment
If you wish to save fuel, switch off the cooling
mode on the air conditioner by pressing the

@ Note
- Keep the air intake slots in front of the
windscreen clear of snow, ice and leaves to
ensure unimpaired heating and cooling, and
to prevent the windows misting over.
- Condensation can drip off the air cooling
system and form a pool underneath the ve­
hicle. This is normal and does not indicate a
leak.
- If you notice, for instance, that the seat* or
rear window heating is not working, it may
have been temporarily switched off by the
power management function. These sys­
tems will be available again as soon as suffi­
cient electrical power is available.

Controls for automatic air conditioner
Applies to: vehicles with automatic air conditioner
Fig. 66 Automatic air conditioner: Controls
The rotary controls, the buttons in the rotary
controls and the switches are used to control the
functions. The functions can be switched on and
off by pressing the buttons. The LED in the corre­
sponding button lights up when the function is
switched on.
We recommend pressing the !AUTO! button and
setting the temperature to 22 °( (72 °F). The air
conditioner is fully automatic, and will maintain
the desired temperature at a constant level. The
temperature of the air supplied to the interior,
the blower speed and the air distribution are
regulated automatically. When the heater is on,
the blower normally only switches to a higher
speed once the coolant has warmed up sufficient­
ly (this does not apply to the defrost setting).
� Adjusting the blower speed
The rotary control @ can be used to adjust the
blower speed in small steps. You should leave
the blower on at a low setting to prevent the win­
dows from misting up and to ensure that the ve­
hicle interior is constantly ventilated. You can ad­
just the blower speed manually. Press the !AUTO!
button for automatic control of the blower
speed.

Switching air cooling on/off
The air cooling mode is switched on/off when the
!A IC!
button is pressed. When the air cooling is
switched off, the air is neither cooled nor dehu­
midified. The windows may mist up as a result.
The air cooling is switched off automatically at
low outside temperatures (below zero).
The rotary control @ can be used to adjust the
temperature.
I • I •I Setting the temperature
The rotary control @ can be used to adjust the
temperature in small steps.
!AUTO! Switching automatic mode on/off
The automatic mode is switched on when the
!AUTO! button is pressed. The AUTO mode is
switched off immediately when you operate any
of the manual air controls. The automatic mode
maintains a constant temperature inside the ve­
hicle. Air temperature, output and distribution
are regulated automatically.

CX) -
Do NOT stop the vehicle, drive in reverse or
switch off the engine before you are out of
the water.
- Bear in mind that waves created by oncom­
ing traffic could exceed the permissible
wading depth of your vehicle.
- Avoid driving through salt water (corrosion).
How to improve economy and minimise
pollution
Fuel economy, environmental impact and wear
on the engine, brakes and tyres depend largely
on the way you drive the vehicle. By adopting an
economical driving style and anticipating the
traffic situation ahead, you can reduce fuel con­
sumption by 10-15%. The following section gives
you some tips on lessening the impact on the en­
vironment and reducing your operating costs at
the same time.
Anticipate well in advance
A car uses most fuel when accelerating. If you an­
ticipate hazards and speed changes well in ad­
vance, you will need to brake less and thus accel­
erate less. Wherever possible, let the car slow
down gradually with a gear engaged, for in­
stance when you can see that the next traffic
lights are red.
Change gear early to save fuel
An effective way of saving fuel is to change up
quickly through the gears. Running the engine at
high rpm in the lower gears uses an unnecessary
amount of fuel. Press the accelerator slowly and
avoid using the "kick-down" feature.
Avoid driving at high speed
Avoid travelling at top speed. Fuel consumption,
exhaust emissions and noise levels all increase
very rapidly at higher speeds. Driving at moder­
ate speeds will help to save fuel.
Do not let the engine idle for longer than
necessary
Engine idling periods are automatically reduced
on vehicles with start/stop system*. On vehicles
without start/stop system*, it is worthwhile
switching off the engine at level crossings, for in- Driving
stance, or at traffic lights with a long red phase.
The fuel saved after only 30 -40 seconds is
greater than the amount of fuel needed to re­
start the engine.
The engine takes a very long time to warm up
when it is running at idling speed. Mechanical
wear and pollutant emissions are also especially
high during this initial warm-up phase. It is
therefore best to drive off immediately after
starting the engine. Avoid running the engine at
high speed.
Regular servicing
Regular servicing can establish a basis for good
fuel economy before you start driving. A well­
serviced engine gives you the benefit of im­
proved fuel efficiency as well as maximum relia­
bility and an enhanced resale value.
A poorly maintained engine can consume up to
ten percent more fuel than necessary.
Check the oil level when filling the tank. Oil con­
sumption depends to a great extent on the en­
gine load and engine speed. It is quite normal
that the oil consumption of a new engine only
reaches its lowest level after a certain mileage.
This means that the oil consumption can only be
properly assessed after about 5,000 km.
Avoid short trips
The engine and emission control system need to
reach their proper working temperature in order
to minimise fuel consumption and emissions.
A cold engine uses disproportionately more fuel.
The engine only reaches its working temperature
after about four kilometres, when fuel consump­
tion will return to a normal level.
Check tyre pressures
Always make sure the tyres are inflated to the
correct tyre pressures to save fuel. If the tyre
pressures are just 0.5 bar too low, this can in­
crease the fuel consumption by as much as 5 %.
Due to the greater rolling resistance, under-infla­
tion also increases tyre wear and impairs han­
dling.

otherwise this can damage the engine.
@) For the sake of the environment
Do not warm up the engine by running it with
the car stationary. You should drive off imme­
diately whenever possible. This will help avoid
unnecessary exhaust emissions.

of accidents and serious injury, because you
cannot steer and brake in the normal man­
ner.
- Always take the key with you when you leave

CD CAUTION
If the engine has been working hard for a long
time, there is a risk of heat building up in the
engine compartment after the engine has
been switched off; this could cause engine
damage. For this reason, you should leave the
engine idling for about 2 minutes before
switching it off.
{(D Note
After the engine is stopped, the radiator fan
may remain on or turn itself back on for up to
10 minutes, even if the ignition is switched
off. This may occur for the following reasons:
- Residual heat has raised the coolant tem-
perature.
- Direct sunlight has additionally heated up
the engine compartment while the engine is
warm.
-Applies to vehicles with diesel particulate
filter: The emission control system is hot
because of the regeneration process, even
though the engine has not yet reached oper­
ating temperature.

Vl Driving
In start/stop mode, the engine is switched off
automatically when the vehicle stops, e.g. at
traffic lights. The ignition remains on during this
stop phase. The engine is automatically started
on demand.
The start/stop system is automatically activated
each time you switch on the ignition.
Basic conditions for start/stop mode
- The driver's door must be closed.
- The driver's seat belt must be buckled.
- The bonnet must be closed.
- The vehicle must have been moving at over 4
km/h since the last stop.
A WARNING
- Never switch off the engine until the vehicle
is stationary. Otherwise you may not have
the full benefit of the brake servo and pow­
er steering. You may need more strength to
steer and brake the vehicle than you nor­
mally would. This would mean a greater risk
of accidents and serious injury, because you
cannot steer and brake in the normal man­
ner.
- Always take the key with you when leaving
the vehicle -even if you only intend to be
gone for a short time. This is especially im­
portant if children are left in the car. They
might otherwise be able to start the engine
or use power-operated equipment such as
the electric windows -this could lead to in­
juries.
- To avoid injury, make sure that the start/
stop system is switched off before working
in the engine compartment ¢page 73.
