Information overview
Overview of driving data (depending on the vehicle equipment).
Range - drive distance in km which can be covered with the existing tank ca-
pacity and with the same driving style. If you drive more efficiently this value
can increase.
AdBlue ®
range - drive distance in km which can be covered with the existing
AdBlue ®
tank capacity and with the same driving style. If you drive more effi-
ciently this value can increase.
Average fuel consumption - is calculated continuously since the last time the
memory was deleted. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the
first 100 m driven.
Current fuel consumption - when the vehicle is stationary or slowly moving,
the fuel consumption is displayed in l/h (--,- km/l appears on models for some
countries).
Oil temperature - if the temperature is lower than 50 °C or if there is a fault in
the system for checking the oil temperature, the  symbols are displayed.
Warning when the preset speed is exceeded - allows the setting of a speed
limit where, if exceeded, an acoustic warning signal and a warning message
appears on the display of the instrument cluster.
Dynamic Road Sign Display - traffic signs display » page 246, Traffic sign rec-
ognition .
Current speed - digital speedometer.
Average speed - is calculated continuously since the last time the memory
was deleted. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m
driven.
Driving route - distance driven since the last time the memory was deleted.
Driving time - driving time since the last time the memory was deleted.
Conv. consumers - information about the total consumption of the comfort
consumers in l/h and a list of three consumers (e.g. air conditioning etc.), which
have the largest share of fuel consumption.

Fog lights with CORNER functionRead and observe
on page 66 first.
The CORNER function automatically switches on the fog lights on the respec-tive side of the vehicle (e.g. when cornering), if the following conditions are ful-
filled.
The turn signal is switched on or the front wheels are turned sharply 1)
.
The vehicle speed is below 40 km/h.
The low beam is switched on.
The fog lights are not switched on.
The two fog lights are switched on when you shift into the reverse gear.
COMING HOME / LEAVING HOME
Read and observe
on page 66 first.
The function COMING HOME ensures that the vehicle's environment is illumi-
nated after switching off the ignition and opening the driver's door.
The function LEAVING HOME ensures that the vehicle's environment is illumi-
nated after unlocking the vehicle with the radio remote control unit.
The function switches the light on only if there is poorer visibility and the light
switch is in the position .
The two functions can be activated/deactivated and set in the Infotainment

CAUTION
■
Poorer visibility is evaluated by a sensor mounted below the windscreen in
the holder of the rear-view mirror. Do not cover the sensor - the system can be
affected.■
If this option is always enabled, then the battery is heavily loaded.

70Using the system

WARNINGThe system is used only for support, thus the driver is not released from his
obligation to manually adjust the main or low beam according to the given
ambient conditions (e.g. in unfavourable lighting and weather conditions,
as when passing poorly lit road users, if necessary, when the visual range
of the sensor is limited by an obstacle).
CAUTION
Do not attach any stickers or similar objects in front of the sensor on the wind-
screen to avoid impairing the function of the system.

The heating heats and ventilates the vehicle interior. The air conditioning sys-
tem also cools and dehumidifies the vehicle interior.
The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat
output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature.
The cooling system works under the following conditions. The cooling system is switched on.
The engine is running.
The outside temperature is below 2 ° C.
The blower is switched on.
Fogging is prevented when the cooling system is switched on.
It is possible to boost the effectiveness of the cooling system by briefly acti-
vating the air recirculation system » page 117.
Health protection
To reduce health risks (e.g. common colds), the following instructions for the
use of the cooling system are to be observed. ▶ The difference between the indoor temperature and the outdoor air temper-
ature should not be greater than about 5 ° C.
▶ The cooling system should be turned off about 10 minutes before the end of
the journey.
▶ Once a year, the air conditioning should be disinfected by a specialist garage. 
