Cooling n
Press n
to switch on cooling.
Activation is indicated by illumination
of the LED in the button. Cooling is
only functional when the engine is
running and climate control fan is switched on.
Press n again to switch off cooling.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) as soon as the
outside temperature is slightly above
freezing point. Therefore
condensation may form and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch the cooling system off to save
fuel.
Activated cooling may inhibit
autostops. Stop-start system 3 126.

Press 4 to activate air recirculation
mode. Activation is indicated by
illumination of the LED in the button.
Press 4 again to deactivate
recirculation mode.9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up from inside.

compartment air deteriorates,
which may cause the vehicle
occupants to feel drowsy.
In warm and very humid ambient air conditions, the windscreen might mist up from outside, when cold air is

soon as possible.
% flashes when diesel particle filter
has reached the maximum filling level. Start cleaning process
immediately to avoid damage to the
engine. A warning chime sounds
every 3 minutes until the cleaning
process is complete.
Cleaning process To activate the cleaning process,
continue driving, keeping engine
speed above 2000 revolutions per
minute. Shift down if necessary.
Diesel particle filter cleaning is then
started.
If control indicator Z illuminates
additionally in the instrument cluster
when the engine is running, there
may be a fault in the diesel particlefilter 3 84. Cleaning is not possible,
seek the assistance of a workshop
immediately.Caution
If the cleaning process is
interrupted, there is a risk of
provoking severe engine damage.
Cleaning takes place quickest at high engine speeds and loads.
Do not switch off the engine until the
cleaning process is complete. This is
indicated by the extinguished control
indicator %.
Catalytic converter
The catalytic converter reduces the
amount of harmful substances in the
exhaust gases.
Caution
Fuel grades other than those listed 3 207 could damage the catalytic
converter or electronic
components.
Unburnt fuel will overheat and
damage the catalytic converter.
Therefore avoid excessive use of the starter, running the fuel tank
dry and starting the engine by
pushing or towing.
In the event of misfiring, uneven
engine running, a reduction in engine performance or other unusual
problems, have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop as soon as
possible. In an emergency, driving
can be continued for a short period,
keeping vehicle speed and engine
speed low.

inconsistent tyre pressures are
detected. In some versions, the
message is displayed in abbreviated
form.
For example, the following messages can be displayed:
A graphic indicating the left rear tyre
is shown together with the current tyre
pressure; slight pressure deviation.
Reduce speed. Check tyre pressure
at next opportunity with an
appropriate gauge and correct if
necessary.
On the Colour-Info-Display, this
message will appear in yellow.A graphic indicating the front left tyre
is shown together with the current tyre
pressure; significant pressure
deviation or direct pressure loss.
Steer out of the flow of traffic as
quickly as possible without
endangering other vehicles. Stop and
check the tyres. Mount the spare
