Cooling n
Press n to switch on cooling.
Activation is indicated by the LED in the button. Cooling is only functional
when the engine is running and
climate control fan is switched on.
Press n again to switch off cooling.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) when outside
temperature is above a specific level.
Therefore condensation may form
and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch off the cooling system for fuel
saving reasons. When the cooling
system is switched off, no engine
restart will be requested by the
climate control system during an
Autostop. Exception: defrost system
is activated and outside temperature
above 0° C requests a restart.
The display will indicate ACON when
cooling is activated or ACOFF when
the cooling is deactivated.
Activation or deactivation of cooling
operation after engine start can be

160Driving and operatingStop-start systemThe stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emissions. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as the
vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, e.g. at a traffic light or in a
traffic jam. It starts the engine
automatically as soon as the clutch is depressed. A vehicle battery sensor
ensures that an Autostop is only
performed if the vehicle battery is
sufficiently charged for a restart.
Activation The stop-start system is available as
soon as the engine is started, the
vehicle starts-off and the conditions
as stated below in this section are
fulfilled.Deactivation
Deactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing eco.
Deactivation is indicated by the LED in the button extinguishing.
Autostop If the vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
■ Depress the clutch pedal.
■ Set the lever to neutral.
■ Release the clutch pedal.
The engine will be switched off while the ignition stays on.
An Autostop is indicated by the
needle at the AUTOSTOP position in
the tachometer.
During an Autostop, the heating and
brake performance will be
maintained.
Caution
The steering assist can be
reduced during an Autostop.
Conditions for an Autostop
The stop-start system checks if each
of the following conditions is fulfilled.

matching process should also be
performed after replacing a spare tyre with a road tyre containing the TPMS
sensor.
The malfunction light w and the
warning message or code should go
off at the next ignition cycle. The
sensors are matched to the tyre/
wheel positions, using a TPMS
relearn tool, in the following order: left
side front tyre, right side front tyre,
right side rear tyre and left side rear
tyre. The turn signal light at the
current active position is illuminated
until sensor is matched.
Consult your workshop for service or
to purchase a relearn tool. There are
2 minutes to match the first tyre/wheel position, and 5 minutes overall to
match all four tyre/wheel positions. If
it takes longer, the matching process
stops and must be restarted.The TPMS sensor matching process is:
1. Apply the parking brake; on vehicles with automatic
transmission set the selector lever
to P.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. Press MENU on the turn signal
lever to select the Vehicle
Information Menu in the Driver
Information Centre (DIC).
4. Turn the adjuster wheel to scroll to
the tyre pressure menu.
5. Press the SET/CLR button to
begin the sensor matching
process. A message requesting
acceptance of the process should
display.
6. Press the SET/CLR button again
to confirm the selection. The horn sounds twice to signal the
receiver is in relearn mode.
7. Start with the left side front tyre.
8. Place the relearn tool against the tyre sidewall, near the valve stem.Then press the button to activate
the TPMS sensor. A horn chirpconfirms that the sensor
identification code has been
matched to this tyre and wheel
position.
9. Proceed to the right side front tyre,
and repeat the procedure in Step 8.
10. Proceed to the right side rear tyre,
and repeat the procedure in
Step 8.
11. Proceed to the left side rear tyre, and repeat the procedure in
Step 8. The horn sounds twice to
indicate the sensor identification
code has been matched to the left side rear tyre, and the TPMS
sensor matching process is no
longer active.
12. Turn off the ignition.
13. Set all four tyres to the recommended air pressure level
as indicated on the tyre pressure
label.
14. Ensure the tyre loading status is set according selected pressure

9. Connect the compressor plug tothe power outlet or cigarette
lighter socket.
To avoid discharging the battery,
we recommend running the
engine.
10. Set the rocker switch on the compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
11. The compressor pressure gauge briefly indicates up to 6 bar whilstthe sealant bottle is emptying
(approx. 30 seconds). Then the
pressure starts to drop.
12. All of the sealant is pumped into the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated.
13. The prescribed tyre pressure should be obtained within
10 minutes. Tyre pressure
3 286 . When the correct pressure
is obtained, switch off the
compressor.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within 10 minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for
10 minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Drain excess tyre pressure with
the button over the pressure indicator.
Do not run the compressor longer
than 10 minutes.
14. Detach the tyre repair kit. Push catch on bracket to remove
sealant bottle from bracket. Screw the tyre inflation hose to the freeconnection of the sealant bottle.
This prevents sealant from
escaping. Stow tyre repair kit in
load compartment.
15. Remove any excess sealant using a cloth.
16. Take the label indicating maximum permitted speed from
the sealant bottle and affix in the
driver's field of view.
17. Continue driving immediately so that sealant is evenly distributedin the tyre. After driving approx.
10 km (but no more than
10 minutes), stop and check tyre
pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve and
compressor when doing this.
