Climate control125Air vents
Adjustable air vents At least one air vent must be open
while cooling is on, in order to prevent
the evaporator from icing up due to
lack of air movement.9 Warning
Do not attach any objects to the
slats of the air vents. Risk of
damage and injury in case of an
accident.
Centre air vents
To open or close the centre air vents
and direct the flow of air, tilt the slats
up or down and turn the adjuster
wheel left or right.
Side air vents
To open or close the side air vents, tilt the slats up or down.
Direct the flow of air by rotating the
vents.
Depending upon the position of the
temperature control, air will be
directed into the vehicle via the side
air vents.
Rear air vents
Depending on vehicle, additional
adjustable air vents are located in the
rear passenger compartment.
Fixed air vents Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door
windows, in the foot wells and,
depending on vehicle, in the rear
passenger compartment.
Glovebox cooler
The air conditioning system can also
keep the contents of the glovebox
cool.

126Climate controlMaintenanceAir intake
The air intake in front of the
windscreen in the engine
compartment must be kept clear to
allow air intake. Remove any leaves,
dirt or snow.
Pollen filter
The pollen filter cleans dust, soot,
pollen and spores from the air
entering the vehicle through the air
intake.
Notice
Pollen filter is only fitted to vehicles
with air conditioning system.
Air conditioning regular operation
In order to ensure continuously
efficient performance, cooling must
be operated for a few minutes once a month, irrespective of the weather
and time of year. Operation with
cooling is not possible when outside
temperature is too low.Service
For optimal cooling performance, it is recommended to annually check the
climate control system, starting
three years after initial vehicle
registration, including:
● functionality and pressure test
● heating functionality
● leakage check
● check of drive belts
● cleaning of condenser and evaporator drainage
● performance check
Notice
Refrigerant R-134a contains
fluorinated greenhouse gases with a
global warming potential of 1430.
Front air conditioning system is filled with 0.58 kg and has a CO 2
equivalent of 0.83 tonnes, the front
and rear air conditioning system is filled with 0.88 kg and has a CO 2
equivalent of 1.26 tonnes.Depending on vehicle, information
regarding air conditioning refrigerant
appears on a label located in the
engine compartment.

128Driving and operatingNotice
The use of ECO mode may affect the performance of the climate control
system 3 114.
During driving, it is possible to
temporarily disable ECO mode, e.g.
to increase engine performance, by
depressing the accelerator pedal
firmly.
ECO mode is reactivated when
pressure is reduced on the
accelerator pedal.
Deactivation
Press ECO again. Control indicator
ECO extinguishes in the instrument
cluster.
Control of the vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running (except during Autostop)
Many systems will not function in this
situation (e.g. brake servo unit, power steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others. All
systems function during an Autostop,
but there may be a controlled
reduction in power steering assist and
vehicle speed is reduced.
Stop-start system 3 133.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.
Use only floor mats which fit properly and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver's side.
Driving downhill
Engage a gear when driving downhill
to ensure that sufficient brake
pressure is available.Steering
If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a
system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.Caution
Vehicles equipped with hydraulic
power steering:
If the steering wheel is turned until it reaches the end of its travel, and
is held in that position for more
than 15 seconds, damage may
occur to the power steering
system and there may be loss of
power steering assist.

134Driving and operatingdeactivated automatically, and the
engine is switched off. Restart engine by pressing START/STOP .
Power button 3 129.
Autostop
If the vehicle is at a low speed or at a standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
● depress the clutch pedal
● move the selector lever to neutral
● release the clutch pedal
The engine will be switched off while
the ignition stays on if the required
conditions are met.An Autostop is indicated when Ï
illuminates in the instrument cluster
3 99.
During an Autostop, heating and brake performance will be
maintained. Brake assist, however, is
not available 3 145.Caution
The power steering assist may be
reduced during an Autostop.
If you exit the vehicle while the engine
is in an Autostop, a warning chime will
sound and a message " IGNITION
OFF " is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre as a reminder that
the engine is on standby and has not
been switched off.
Conditions for an Autostop
The stop-start system checks if each
of the following conditions is fulfilled,
otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited and control indicator \ will
illuminate in the instrument cluster:
● the stop-start system is not manually deactivated
● the bonnet is fully closed
● the driver's door is closed or the driver's seat belt is fastened
● the vehicle battery is sufficiently charged and in good condition
● the engine is warmed up
● the engine coolant temperature is
not too high
● the outside temperature is not too
low or too high (e.g. below 0 °C
or above 30 °C)
● the defrosting function is not activated
● the climate control system does not inhibit an Autostop
● the brake vacuum is sufficient
● the self-cleaning function of the diesel particle filter is not active
3 136
● the Antilock brake system (ABS) 3 144, Traction Control system
(TC) 3 146 and Electronic

Driving and operating135Stability Program (ESP®Plus
)
3 147 ride control systems are
not actively engaged
● the vehicle has moved since the last Autostop
Otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited.
Certain settings of the climate control system may also inhibit an Autostop.
See " Climate control " chapter for
further information 3 116.
Immediately after motorway driving
an Autostop may be inhibited.
New vehicle running-in 3 129.
Vehicle battery discharge protection
To ensure reliable engine restarts,
several battery discharge protection
features are implemented as part of
the stop-start system.
Restart of the engine by the driver
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the
engine.
Notice
If any gear is selected, the clutch pedal must be fully depressed to
restart the engine.If the engine does not restart first
time, depress clutch pedal fully again.
Alternatively, press button Î to
restart the engine while in an
Autostop.
Control indicator Ï 3 99 extinguishes
in the instrument cluster when the
engine is restarted.
Restart of the engine by the stop-
start system
The selector lever must be in neutralto enable an automatic restart.
If one of the following conditions
occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will be restarted automatically
by the stop-start system:
● the vehicle battery is discharged
● the outside temperature is too low or too high (e.g. below 0 °C
or above 30 °C)
● the defrosting function is activated 3 116
● the brake vacuum is not sufficient
● the brake pedal is operated repeatedly
● the vehicle starts to moveAn automatic engine restart may not
be possible if a door or the bonnet is
open.
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop
during engine restart may be
noticeable.
If the Infotainment system is active,
audio sound may briefly be reduced
or interrupted during the restart.
Fault
If a fault occurs in the stop-start
system, the LED in Î illuminates,
and a corresponding message
appears in the Driver Information
Centre 3 100 . Seek the assistance of
a workshop.
