The interior cooling system only works when

running and fan is switched on.
The air conditioner operates most effectively
with the windows and the panoramic sliding
sunroof closed. However, if the vehicle has
heated up after standing in the sun for some
time, the air inside can be cooled more quick-
ly by opening the windows and the panoram-
ic sliding sunroof briefly.
Climatronic: change the temperature unit on
the screen of the radio or on the factory-fit-
ted navigation system
Changing the temperature display from Cel-
sius to Fahrenheit on radio or on the factory-
fitted navigation system is done using the
menu on the instrument panel
››› page 30. The cooling system cannot be activated
If the air conditionin
g system cannot be
switched on, this may be caused by the fol-
lowing:
● The engine is not running.
● The fan is switched off.
● The air conditioner fuse has blown.
● The outside temperature is lower than ap-
prox
imately +3°C (+38°F).
● The air conditioner compressor has been
temporari
ly switched off because the engine
coolant temperature is too high.
● Another fault in the vehicle. Have the air
conditioner chec
ked by a specialised work-
shop.
Special Characteristics
If the humidity and temperature outside the
vehicle are high, condensation can drip off
the evaporator in the cooling system and
form a pool underneath the vehicle. This is
normal and does not indicate a leak! Note
After starting the engine, any residual humid-
ity in the air c onditioner c
ould mist over the
windscreen. Switch on the defrost function as
soon as possible to clear the windscreen of
condensation. 165

Traffic sign detection system Intr oduction The traffic sign detection system can help the
driver w
ith inf
ormation on speed limits or if
overtaking is prohibited at that moment.
The traffic signs and additional information
detected by the system are represented on
the instrument panel display and in the visu-
al presentation of the Infotainment system
(representation of the navigation system
map).
Countries in which it works
When this instruction manual went to print,
the traffic sign detection system was operat-
ing in the following countries:
Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France,
Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Lux-
embourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland,
Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Slovakia,
Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the
United Kingdom and the Vatican City. WARNING
The technology in the traffic sign detection
sys t
em cannot change the limits imposed by
the laws of physics and only works within the
system's limits. Do not let the extra conven-
ience afforded by the traffic sign detection system tempt you into taking any risks when
drivin
g.
The system is not a replacement for
driver awareness.
● Adapt your speed and driving style to suit
vis
ibility, weather, road and traffic condi-
tions.
● Poor visibility, darkness, snow, rain and fog
may
lead to the system failing to display traf-
fic signs or not displaying them correctly.
● If the camera's field of vision is dirty, cov-
ered or dam
aged, system operation may be
impaired. WARNING
The driving recommendations and traffic indi-
cation s
shown on the traffic sign detection
system may differ from the actual current
traffic situation.
● The system may not detect or correctly
show al
l the traffic signs.
● Traffic signs and traffic regulations have
priority ov
er the recommendations and dis-
plays provided by the system. Note
In order not to compromise the system's op-
eration, p l
ease take the following points into
account:
● Regularly clean the area of vision of the
camera and k
eep it in a clean state, without
snow or ice. ●
Do not c o
ver the field of vision of the cam-
era.
● Check that the windscreen is not damaged
in the area of
the camera's field of vision. Note
● The u se of out
dated maps on the naviga-
tion system may cause the system to show
traffic signs incorrectly.
● In the waypoints mode of the navigation
syst
em, the traffic sign detection system is
only partly available. 222

Display of traffic signs
When the traffic sign detection system is con-
nected, a camera located on the base of the
interior rear-view mirror records the traffic
signs in front of the vehicle. After checking
and evaluating the information from the cam-
era, the navigation system and the current
vehicle data, up to three valid traffic signs
are displayed ›››
Fig. 217 B in conjunction
with their corresponding additional signs.
The sign that is currently valid for the
driver is shown in the left side of the
screen For example, a maximum speed
limit of 130 km/h (100 mph)
››› Fig. 217 A.
A sign valid only in certain circum-
stances, e.g. 100 km/h (60 mph) is
shown second, together with the addi-
tional rain sign. »

The emergency braking function helps to

Operatin
g and safety warnings WARNING
● The Re ar As
sist does not make it possible
to precisely calculate the distance from ob-
stacles (people, vehicles, etc.) and nor can it
overcome the system's own limits, hence us-
ing it may cause serious accidents and inju-
ries if used negligently or without due care.
The driver should be aware of his/her sur-
roundings at all times to ensure safe driving.
● The camera lens expands and distorts the
field of
vision and displays the objects on the
screen in a different, vague manner. The per-
ception of distances is also distorted by this
effect.
● Some objects may, due to the resolution of
the disp
lay screen - not be displayed in a sat-
isfactory manner or may not be displayed at all. Take special care with thin posts, fences,
rai
lin
gs or trees that might not be displayed
on screen and could damage the vehicle.
● The rear assist has blind spots where it is
not pos
sible to represent people or objects
(small children, animals and certain objects
cannot be detected in its field of vision). Mon-
itor the vehicle's surrounding area at all
times.
● Keep the camera lens clean, free of ice and
snow
, and do not cover it.
● The system is not a replacement for driver
awar
eness. Supervise the parking operation
at all times, as well as the vehicle's surround-
ing area. Adapt your speed and driving style
at all times to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
● Do not be distracted from the traffic by
looking at
the screen.
● The images on the rear assist screen are
only tw
o-dimensional. Due to a lack of spatial
depth, protruding parts or holes in the road,
for example, are more difficult to detect or
may not be seen at all.
● Vehicle load modifies the representation of
the orientation lines
displayed. The width
represented by the lines diminishes with ve-
hicle load. Pay special attention to the vehi-
cle's surroundings when the inside of the ve-
hicle of the luggage compartment is carrying
a heavy load.
● In the following situations, the objects or
other vehic
les shown in the navigation sys-
tem display appear to be further away or » 231
