Operating the auxiliary heating/ventilation
draws on the vehicle battery. After you have
heated or ventilated the vehicle a maximum of two times, drive for a longer distance.
Switch the auxiliary heating on regularly – once a month – for about ten minutes.
The auxiliary heating heats the air in the vehicle
interior to the set temperature. This occurs with- out using the heat of the running engine. The
auxiliary heating is operated directly using the
vehicle's fuel. For this reason, the fuel tank level
must be above the reserve range to ensure that the auxiliary heating functions.
The auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation
automatically adjusts to changes in tempera-
ture and weather conditions. For this reason,
the auxiliary heating could switch from ventila-
tion mode to heating mode or from heating
mode to ventilation mode.
The auxiliary heating switches off when the
engine is switched off. The auxiliary ventilation
is not active if the engine is running.
The auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation
switches off automatically after 50 minutes.
This time limit can be altered. To do this, consult
a qualified specialist workshop.
You cannot use the auxiliary ventilation to cool
the vehicle interior to a temperature lower than
the outside temperature.
Before switching on X
Turn the key to position 2in the ignition lock
(Y page 144).
X Set the desired temperature using the w
rocker switch on the front control unit.
If you do not alter the temperature before
switching on the auxiliary heating or auxiliary
ventilation, the last temperature setting will be
adopted.
Auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation can also be switched on if the manually set climate con-
trol is activated. Optimum comfort is attained
when the system is set to automatic mode. Set
the temperature to 22 †.
You can switch the auxiliary heating or auxiliary
ventilation on or off:
R using the rocker switch on the centre console
(Y page 138)
R using the remote control (Y page 139)The remote control can be used to set up to
three departure times, one of which may be pre- selected.

lation on/off using the centre console

R blue: auxiliary ventilation is switched on
R red: auxiliary heating is switched on
R yellow: departure time is preselected
Activating/deactivating

ventilation: press rocker switch :up or
down.
The red or the blue indicator lamp above

The multimedia system is activated for
approximately one minute.
X Set the desired temperature using the multi-
media system (see the Digital Owner's Man-
ual).
X To switch off auxiliary heating or auxiliary
ventilation: press rocker switch :up or
down.
The red or the blue indicator lamp above
rocker switch :goes out. 138

Problems with the auxiliary heating/ventilation Problem
Possible causes/consequences and
M
MSolutions FAIL
¨ The signal transmission between the transmitter and the vehicle is
faulty.
X
Change your position in relation to the vehicle, moving closer if
necessary. FAIL The auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation cannot be switched on or
has switched itself off.
The starter battery is not sufficiently charged.
X Charge the starter battery. The fuel level has dropped into the reserve range.
X Refuel at the nearest filling station. The auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation is faulty.
X Have the auxiliary heating or auxiliary ventilation checked at a
qualified specialist workshop. The battery symbol on
the left of the remote
control display is shown
as empty. The remote control battery is discharged.
X Replace the remote control battery (Y page 140).Air vents
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Very hot or very cold air can flow from the air vents. This could result in burns or frostbite in the immediate vicinity of the air vents. There
is a risk of injury.
Make sure that all vehicle occupants always
maintain a sufficient distance to the air out-
lets. If necessary, redirect the airflow to
another area of the vehicle interior. In order to ensure the direct flow of fresh air
through the air vents into the vehicle interior,
please observe the following notes:
R keep the air inlet between the windscreen and
the bonnet free of blockages, such as ice,
snow or leaves
R never cover the vents or ventilation grilles in
the vehicle interior Adjusting the air vents
Air vents are located: R on the left and right-hand side of the dash-
board
R in the middle of the dashboard
R in the rear centre console, depending on
equipment in the vehicle Air vents

Problem
Possible causes/consequences and
M
MSolutions The engine does not
start. The starter motor
can be heard. The
reserve fuel warning
lamp is lit and the fuel
gauge display is at the
reserve level. The fuel tank is empty.
X Refuel the vehicle. The engine does not
start. You cannot hear
the starter motor. The on-board voltage is too low because the battery is too weak or
discharged.
X Jump-start the vehicle (Y page 348).
If the engine does not start despite attempts to jump-start it:
X Consult a qualified specialist workshop. The starter motor was exposed to excessively high thermal load.
X Start the engine again (Y page 145).
If the engine still does not start: X Consult a qualified specialist workshop. Vehicles with a petrol
engine:
The engine is not running
smoothly and is misfir-
ing. The engine electronics or a mechanical component of the engine
management system are/is malfunctioning.
X Depress the accelerator pedal only slightly.
Otherwise, non-combusted fuel may get into the catalytic converter
and damage it.
X Have the cause rectified immediately at a qualified specialist work-
shop. The coolant temperature
display is showing more
than 120 †. A display
message may also
appear on the multifunc-
tion display and a warn-
ing tone may sound. The coolant level is too low. The coolant is too hot and the engine is not
being cooled sufficiently.
X Stop as soon as possible and allow the engine and the coolant to
cool down.
X Check the coolant level (Y page 329). Observe the warning notes
as you do so and top up the coolant if necessary. If the coolant level is correct, the engine radiator fan may be faulty. The
coolant is too hot and the engine is not being cooled sufficiently.
X If the coolant temperature is below 120 †, you can continue driving
to the nearest qualified specialist workshop.
X Avoid heavy loads on the engine as you do so, e.g. driving in moun-
tainous terrain and stop-start traffic. Driving
151Driving and parking Z

Emergency braking
The vehicle can also be braked during an emer-
gency by using the electric parking brake.
X While driving, press handle :of the electric
parking brake (Y page 169).
The vehicle is braked as long as you keep
handle :of the electric parking brake
depressed. The longer electric parking brake
handle :is depressed, the greater the brak-
ing force.
During braking:
R a warning tone sounds
R the Release parking brake
Release parking brake display mes-
sage appears
R red indicator lamp !on the instrument
cluster flashes
When the vehicle has been braked to a stand-
still, the electric parking brake is applied. Parking up the vehicle
If you leave the vehicle parked up for longer than
four weeks, the battery may be damaged by
exhaustive discharging.
If you leave the vehicle parked up for longer than
six weeks, it may suffer from lack of use.
X Contact a qualified specialist workshop and
seek advice.
i You can obtain information on trickle charg-
ers from a qualified specialist workshop.
Hybrid vehicles: observe the notes on the high-
voltage battery in the separate Owner's Manual. Driving tips

Important safety notes G
WARNING
If you switch off the ignition while driving,
safety-relevant functions are only available
with limitations, or not at all. This could affect, for example, the power steering and the brake
boosting effect. You will require considerably
more effort to steer and brake. There is a risk of an accident. Do not switch off the ignition while driving.
Drive sensibly – save fuel Observe the following tips to save fuel:
X The tyres should always be inflated to the rec-
ommended tyre pressure.
X Remove unnecessary loads.
X Remove roof racks when they are not needed.
X Warm up the engine at low engine speeds.
X Avoid frequent acceleration or braking.
X Have all maintenance work carried out as
indicated by the service intervals in the Ser-
vice Booklet or by the service interval display.
Fuel consumption also increases when driving in
cold weather, in stop-start traffic, on short jour- neys and in hilly terrain. ECO display
The ECO display shows you how economical
your driving style is. The ECO display assists you in achieving the most economical driving style
for the selected settings and prevailing condi-
tions. Consumption can be significantly influ-
enced by your driving style. :
