Setting the air vents
Important safety notes
GWARNING
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
outlets. If necessary, redirect the airflow
to another area of the vehicle interior.
GWARNING
If you spray cleaning products or disin-
fectant into the ventilation system of the
vehicle, this could ignite. There is a risk
of fire.
Never spray these or any other substances
into the ventilation system. Always have
work on the ventilation system carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop.
In order to ensure the direct flow of fresh air
through the air vents into the vehicle inte-
rior, please observe the following notes:
Rkeep the air inlet between the service
cover and the windshield free of blockages,
such as ice, snow or leaves.
Rnever cover the air vents or air intake
grilles in the vehicle interior.
iFor optimum climate control in the vehi-
cle, open the air vents fully.
84Setting the air vents
>> Climate control.

Prevent water from entering the vehicle inte-
rior or the engine compartment. If you must
drive through standing water, bear in mind
that:
Rthe water level should not exceed the lower
edge of the vehicle body in still water
Ryou should drive no faster than at walking
pace.
Winter driving
GWARNING
If you shift down on a slippery road surface
in an attempt to increase the engine's
braking effect, the drive wheels could lose
their grip. There is an increased danger of
skidding and accidents.
Do not shift down for additional engine
braking on a slippery road surface.
GDANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or adequate
ventilation is not possible, poisonous
gases such as carbon monoxide (CO) may
enter the vehicle. This is the case, e.g. if
the vehicle becomes trapped in snow. There
is a risk of fatal injury.
If you have to leave the engine running,
keep the exhaust pipe and the area around
the vehicle free of snow. To ensure an ade- quate supply of fresh air, open a window on
the side of the vehicle that is not facing
into the wind.
Have your vehicle winterproofed at a quali-
fied specialist workshop at the onset of win-
ter.
Drive particularly carefully on slippery road
surfaces. Avoid sudden acceleration, steer-
ing and braking maneuvers. Do not use cruise
control.
If the vehicle threatens to skid or cannot be
stopped when moving at low speed:
XTry to bring the vehicle under control
using corrective steering.
XVehicles with automatic transmission:
shift the transmission to position N.The outside temperature indicator is not
designed to serve as an ice-warning device
and is therefore unsuitable for that purpose.
Changes in the outside temperature are dis-
played after a short delay.
Indicated temperatures just above the freez-
ing point do not guarantee that the road sur-
face is free of ice. The road may still be icy,
especially in wooded areas or on bridges.
You should pay special attention to road con-
ditions when temperatures are around freez-
ing point.
For more information on driving with snow
chains, see (
Ypage 179).
For more information on driving with summer
tires, see (
Ypage 179).
Observe the notes in the "Winter operation"
section (
Ypage 179).
Driving systems
Cruise control
General notes
Cruise control maintains a constant road
speed for you. Cruise control does not brake
the vehicle automatically. Only the engine's
braking effect is available. In order to
reduce speed and maintain distance to other
road users, you need to brake yourself. This
interrupts cruise control.
Use cruise control only if road and traffic
conditions make it appropriate to maintain a steady speed for a prolonged period. You can
use cruise control at speeds above 20 mph
(30 km/h).
Important safety notes
If you fail to adapt your driving style, cruise
control can neither reduce the risk of an
accident nor override the laws of physics.
Cruise control cannot take into account road,
weather or traffic conditions. Cruise control
is only an aid. You are responsible for the
distance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle
speed, for braking in good time and for stay-ing in lane.

!For cleaning your vehicle, do not use any
of the following:
Rdry, rough or hard cloths
Rabrasive cleaning agents
Rsolvents
Rcleaning agents containing solvents
Do not scrub.
Do not touch the surfaces or protective
films with hard objects, e.g. a ring or ice
scraper. You could otherwise scratch or
damage the surfaces and protective film.
!Do not park the vehicle for an extended
period straight after cleaning it, partic-
ularly after having cleaned the wheels with
wheel cleaner. Wheel cleaners could cause
increased corrosion of the brake discs and
brake pads/linings. For this reason, you
should drive for a few minutes after clean-
ing. Braking heats the brake discs and the
brake pads/linings, thus drying them. The
vehicle can then be parked.
Regular care of your vehicle is a condition
for retaining the quality in the long term.
Use care products and cleaning agents rec-
ommended and approved by smart.
Exterior care
Automatic car wash
GWARNING
Braking efficiency is reduced after wash-
ing the vehicle. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
After the vehicle has been washed, brake
carefully while paying attention to the
traffic conditions until full braking power
is restored.
!Never clean your vehicle in a Touchless
Automatic Car Wash as these use special
cleaning agents. These cleaning agents can
damage the paintwork or plastic parts.
!Make sure that:
Rthe side windows are fully closed
Rthe climate control blower is switched
off
Rthe windshield wiper switch is at posi-
tion 0
The vehicle may otherwise be damaged.
You can wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash from the very start.
If the vehicle is very dirty, pre-wash it
before cleaning it in an automatic car wash.
After using an automatic car wash, wipe off
wax from the windshield and the wiper blades.
This will prevent smears and reduce wiping
noises caused by residue on the windshield.
Washing by hand
In some countries, washing by hand is only
allowed at specially equipped washing bays.
Observe the legal requirements in each coun-
try.
XDo not use hot water and do not wash the
vehicle in direct sunlight.
XUse a soft sponge to clean.
XUse a mild cleaning agent, such as a car
shampoo approved by smart.
XThoroughly hose down the vehicle with a
gentle jet of water.
XDo not point the water jet directly towards
the air inlet.
XUse plenty of water and rinse out the sponge frequently.
XRinse the vehicle with clean water and dry
thoroughly with a chamois.
XDo not let the cleaning agent dry on the
paintwork.
Carefully remove all deposits of road salt as
soon as possible when driving in winter.
Power washers
GWARNING
The water jet from a circular jet nozzle
(dirt blasters) can cause invisible exte-
rior damage to the tires or chassis compo- nents. Components damaged in this way may
fail unexpectedly. There is a risk of an
accident.
Care155

iThe vehicle should preferably be washed
by hand using a soft sponge, car shampoo
and plenty of water.
iUse only insect remover and car shampoo
from the range of approved smart care
products.
Cleaning the panoramic roof
!Only use cleaning agents or cleaning
cloths which are suitable for plastic light
lenses. Unsuitable cleaning agents or
cleaning cloths could scratch or damage
the plastic windows of the panoramic roof.
Do not use cleaning agents which contain
solvents.
XClean the plastic panes of the panoramic
roof using a wet sponge and a mild cleaning
agent, e.g. smart car shampoo, a commer-
cially available glass cleaner or cleaning
cloths.
Cleaning the wheels
GWARNING
The water jet from a circular jet nozzle
(dirt blasters) can cause invisible exte-
rior damage to the tires or chassis compo- nents. Components damaged in this way may
fail unexpectedly. There is a risk of an
accident.
Do not use power washers with circular jet
nozzles to clean the vehicle. Have damaged
tires or chassis components replaced
immediately.
!Do not use acidic wheel cleaning products
to remove brake dust. This could damage
wheel bolts and brake components.
!Do not park the vehicle for an extended
period straight after cleaning it, partic-
ularly after having cleaned the wheels with
wheel cleaner. Wheel cleaners could cause
increased corrosion of the brake discs and
brake pads/linings. For this reason, you
should drive for a few minutes after clean-
ing. Braking heats the brake discs and the
brake pads/linings, thus drying them. The
vehicle can then be parked.
Cleaning the windows
GWARNING
You could become trapped by the wind-
shield wipers if they start moving while
cleaning the windshield or wiper blades.
There is a risk of injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers
and the ignition before cleaning the wind-
shield or wiper blades.
!Do not use dry cloths, abrasive products,
solvents or cleaning agents containing
solvents to clean the inside of the windows.
Do not touch the insides of the windows with
hard objects, e.g. an ice scraper or ring.
There is otherwise a risk of damaging the
windows.
!Clean the water drainage channels of the
windshield and the rear window at regular
intervals. Deposits such as leaves, petals
and pollen may under certain circumstan-
ces prevent water from draining away. This
can lead to corrosion damage and damage to
electronic components.
XClean the inside and outside of the windows
with a damp cloth and a cleaning agent that
is recommended and approved by smart.
Cleaning wiper blades
GWARNING
You could become trapped by the wind-
shield wipers if they start moving while
cleaning the windshield or wiper blades.
There is a risk of injury.
Always switch off the windshield wipers
and the ignition before cleaning the wind-
shield or wiper blades.
!Do not pull the wiper blade. Otherwise,
the wiper blade could be damaged.
!Do not clean wiper blades too often and do
not rub them too hard. Otherwise, the
graphite coating could be damaged. This
could cause wiper noise.
