The seat heating / ventilation only works when the engine is running. When the ignition is switched off, the seat heating / ventilation is also switch-ed off. if the engine is started again within 10 minutes, then the driver's seat
heating / ventilation is switched on again automatically according to the set-
ting before switching off the ignition.
WARNINGIf you have a limited pain and / or temperature sensitivity, e.g. due to medi-
cation, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes), we recom-
mend that you do not use the seat heating. If the seat heating is used, we
recommend to make regular breaks in your journey when driving long dis-
tances, so that the body can recuperate from the stress of the journey.
Please consult your doctor, who can evaluate your specific condition.
CAUTION
The following instructions must be observed to avoid damage to the seats.■Do not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply concentrated pressure to them.■
Do not heat seats that do not contain occupants.
■
Do not heat seats in which objects are secured or resting (e.g. children´s
seat, a bag etc.).
■
Do not heat seats on which additional slipcovers or protective covers are fit-
ted.
Note
If the on-board voltage decreases, the seat heating and ventilation switches
off automatically » page 283, Automatic consumer shutdown - Discharge pro-
tection of the vehicle battery .

down when driving and may distract you from concentrating on the traffic –
risk of accident!■
Make sure that while driving no objects can enter the driver's footwell -
cause an accident!
■
Safely stow all devices during the journey to prevent them from being
thrown around the interior in the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or
an accident – risk of death!
■
The devices may warm up during operation – risk of injury or fire!
■
Improper use of the power sockets and the electrical accessories can
cause fires, burns and other serious injuries.
■
The 12-Volt sockets also work if the ignition is switched off. When leaving
the vehicle, never leave persons who are not completely independent, such
as children, unattended in the vehicle.
CAUTION
When using the 12 volt power outlets the following notes are to be observed.■The sockets can only be used for the connection of approved electrical ac-
cessories with a total power consumption of up to 120 watts, otherwise the
electrical system of the vehicle may be damaged.■
Connecting appliances when the engine is not running will drain the battery
of the vehicle!
■
Before switching the ignition on / off or before starting the engine, switch
off the devices which are connected to the sockets - there is a risk of damage
to the equipment due to voltage fluctuations.

When transporting heavy objects, the driving characteristics change due to the
shift in centre-of-gravity. The speed and style of driving must be adjusted ac-
cordingly.
When transporting cargo the following the instructions must be adhered to
▶ Distribute the load evenly in the luggage compartment and secure it with
suitable lashing straps to the lashing eyes or securing nets so that they can-
not slip.
▶ Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
▶ Tyre pressure is to match the load.
In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic
energy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling and the weight of the object.
Luggage compartment light
The light switches on/off when the boot lid is opened or closed.
If the boot lid is open and the ignition switched off, the light will extinguish
automatically after around 10 minutes. 

Setting temperature
The temperature can be set on the Climatronic control unit or in Infotain-
ment » page 112 . In the range between 16 ° C to 29.5 ° C, an automatic temper-
ature control takes place.
At a temperature setting below 16 ° C,  lights up in the temperature display,
the Climatronic functions with maximum cooling performance .
At a temperature setting over 29.5 ° C,  lights up in the temperature display,
the Climatronic functions with maximum heating output.
Residual heat function 
After switching off the ignition, the engine residual heat is used for heat re-
tention in the vehicle interior. The function can only be switched on with the
ignition off within 30 minutes after stopping the engine. The residual heat
function turns off after about 30 minutes, or when the battery has a low
charge state.
CAUTION
Do not cover the interior temperature sensor H » Fig. 146 - the function of the
Climatronic could be affected.
Note
■ In order to ensure adequate thermal comfort, there may be an increase in en-
gine idle speed during operation of the Climatronic in some circumstances.■

The auxiliary heating heats the vehicle interior as well as the engine. For heat-
ing, fuel is consumed from the fuel tank.
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior with
the engine switched off, whereby the interior temperature is effectively de-
creased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) (referred to just as aux- iliary heating in the following) ensures the heating / ventilation depending on
the setting of the air conditioning and the air outlet vents before switching off
the ignition.WARNING■ The auxiliary heating must never be operated in closed rooms (e.g. garag-
es) – risk of poisoning!■
The auxiliary heating must not be allowed to run during refuelling – risk
of fire.
■
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating is located on the underside of
the vehicle. If you want to use the auxiliary heating, do not park the car in
places where the exhaust fumes can come into contact with flammable
materials such as dry grass, undergrowth, leaves, spilled fuel etc. - risk of
fire.
CAUTION
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free (e.g. of ice, snow or
leaves) to ensure that the auxiliary heating operates properly.
Note
■ The auxiliary heating only switches the blower on, if it has achieved a coolant
temperature of approx. 50 °C.■
In the engine compartment, water vapour may form during the operation of
the heater.
