Temperature and blower control
When the vehicle is started, the most recent setting is resumed. The blower should always be activated to help avoid condensation and fogging on thewindows.
Temperature controlThe temperatures on thedriver and passenger sidescan be set separately.
NOTE
Heating or cooling cannot be speeded up by selecting a higher/lower temperaturethan the actual temperature required.
Blower controlTurn the control clockwise to increase or counterclockwiseto decrease the blowerspeed. If
AUTO (p. 112) is
selected, blower speed willbe regulated automaticallyand this will override manual
adjustment.
NOTE
If the blower is turned off completely, the air conditioning is disengaged, which mayresult in fogging on the windows.

Automatic climate control
The Auto function automatically controls tem- perature (p. 111), air conditioning (p. 112),blower speed (p. 111), recirculation (p. 114)and air distribution (p. 109).
If you select one or moremanual functions, the otherfunctions continue to becontrolled automatically. Theair quality (p. 108) sensor isengaged and all manual set-tings are switched off when
AUTO is pressed. The display shows

. Choose between Low, Normalor High.
NOTE
Selecting the lowest blower speed may increases the risk of fog forming on thewindows.

Air conditioning
The air conditioning function cools and dehu- midifies the air in the passenger compart-ment.
When the indicator light inthe button is on, the air con-ditioning is controlled auto-matically. This cools/heatsand dehumidifies the incom-ing air. When the indicatorlight in the button is off, the
air conditioning is disengaged. Other func-tions are still controlled automatically. Whenmaximum defroster (p. 112) is selected, theair conditioning system is set for maximumblower speed and dehumidifies the cabin asquickly as possible.

The following occurs when the defroster/ windshield heating functions have been acti-vated: •
Blower speed increases automatically and the air conditioning (p. 112) willswitch on (if not already on and if the pas-senger compartment blower is not turnedoff) to dehumidify the air in the passengercompartment. Air conditioning can beswitched off by pressing the
AC button.
• Recirculation (p. 114) will not functionwhile defrost is engaged.
The climate system will return to its previous
settings when the defroster/windshield heat- ing function is switched off. See also Heated windshield*, rear window and door mirror defrosters (p. 89) for addi-tional information.

2. The engine will start.
3. The turn signals will illuminate for
3 seconds to indicate that the engine has started.
After the engine has started, the vehicle remains locked but the alarm is disarmed.
Active functionsWhen the engine is started with ERS, the fol- lowing functions are activated: • The climate control system
• The infotainment system.
Deactivated functionsWhen the engine is started with ERS, the fol- lowing functions are deactivated: •Headlights
• Parking lights
• License plate lights
• Windshield wipers

• If there are less than approx. 2.5 gallons(10 liters) of fuel in the tank
• More than 15 minutes have elapsed.
If the engine has been started with ERS and switches off, the turn signals will illuminate for3 seconds.

This feature is primarily intended to be used in driving situations where a decrease inspeed is expected, such as when approach-ing an intersection or a traffic light.
Eco Coast enables proactive driving with as little braking as possible.
Combinations of On and OffDepending on the driving situation, Eco can be used in different ways to help reduce fuelconsumption:
• With Eco activated
: this enables Eco
Coast, which allows the vehicle to roll
freely for as far as possible when the
driver releases the accelerator pedal (e.g., when approaching a traffic light or inter-section).
or
• With Eco deactivated
: engine braking
can be used when the vehicle will only
roll for a short distance (in heavy traffic,
etc.) or when driving down hills .
To help keep fuel consumption as low as possible, Eco Coast should not be used intraffic situations where the brakes have to beused frequently.
Activating Eco CoastEco Coast is activated when the accelerator pedal is released completely if:
• Eco is activated
• The gear selector is in
D •
The vehicle's speed is between approxi- mately 40–85 mph (65–140 km/h). Alwaysobserve posted speed limits
• The gradient of a down-slope is less thanapproximately 6%
Deactivating Eco CoastIn certain situations, it may be advisable to switch off the Eco Coast function, such as:
• When driving down steep hills, in order to utilize engine braking
• Prior to passing another vehicle, in orderto do so as safely as possible
Deactivating Eco Coast (and reactivating engine braking) can be done in the followingways:
• Press the
ECO button on the center con-
sole
• Move the gear selector to the manual "
S
+/– " position
• Change gears using the steering wheel paddles*
• Press the brake or accelerator pedal
Eco Coast limitationsThis function will not be available if:
• Cruise control is activated
• The gradient of a down-slope is morethan approximately 6%
• The steering wheel paddles* are used tomanually change gears •
The engine and/or transmission have notreached their normal operating tempera-ture
• The gear selector is moved from
D to the
manual " S+/–" position
• The vehicle's speed is not within the40–85 mph (65–140 km/h). interval
Additional information and settings
Other ECO-related settings can be made in the vehicle's
MY CAR menu. See My Car –

• Cold tires
: The tires are considered to be
cold when they have the same tempera-ture as the surrounding (ambient) air. Thistemperature is normally reached after thevehicle has been parked for at least3 hours.
Tire specifications – Uniform Tire Quality Grading
ALL PASSENGER VEHICLE TIRES MUST CONFORM TO FEDERAL SAFETYREQUIREMENTS IN ADDITION TO THESEGRADES .
Quality grades can be found, where appli-cable, on the tire sidewall between thetread shoulder and maximum sectionwidth. For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
TREADWEARThe treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tes-ted under controlled conditions on a specifiedgovernment test course. For example, a tiregraded 150 would wear one and one half(1 ½) times as well on the government courseas a tire graded 100. The relative perform-ance of tires depends upon the actual condi-tions of their use, however, and many departsignificantly from the norm due to variation indriving habits, maintenance practices and dif-ferences in road characteristics and climate.
TRACTIONThe traction grades, from highest to lowest,are AA, A, B, and C, as measured under con-trolled conditions on specified governmenttest surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tiremarked C may have poor traction perform- ance. The traction grade assigned to this tireis based on braking (straight-ahead) tractiontests and is not a measure of cornering (turn-ing) traction.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight-ahead) tractiontests and is not a measure of cornering(turning) traction.
TEMPERATUREThe temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing the tire's resistance tothe generation of heat and its ability to dissi-pate heat when tested under controlled con-ditions on a specified indoor laboratory testwheel. Sustained high temperature can causethe material of the tire to degenerate andreduce tire life, and excessive temperaturecan lead to sudden tire failure. The grade Ccorresponds to a minimum level of perform-ance that all passenger vehicle tires mustmeet under the Federal Motor Safety Stand-ard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higherlevels of performance on the laboratory testwheel than the minimum required by law.
