take the SmartKey with you and lock the vehi-
cle. Never leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle. Side window reversing feature
The side windows are equipped with an auto-
matic reversing feature. If a solid object blocks
or restricts a side window from traveling
upwards during the automatic closing process,
the side window opens again automatically. Dur-
ing the manual closing process, the side window only opens again automatically after the corre-
sponding switch is released. The automatic
reversing feature is only an aid and is no substi-
tute for your attention when closing a side win-
dow. Side windows

Overview of climate control systems
General notes
Observe the settings recommended on the fol-
lowing pages. The windows could otherwise fog up.
To prevent the windows from fogging up:
R switch off climate control only briefly
R switch on air-recirculation mode only briefly
R switch on the cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion function
R switch on the defrost windshield function
briefly, if required
The dual-zone automatic climate control regu-
lates the temperature and the humidity in the
vehicle interior and filters undesirable substan-
ces out of the air.
Dual-zone automatic climate control is only
operational when the vehicle is ready to drive.
Optimum operation is only achieved with the
side windows closed.
Always keep the ventilation flaps behind the
side paneling in the cargo compartment clear.
Otherwise the vehicle will not be ventilated cor- rectly. i
Ventilate the vehicle for a brief period during
warm weather, e.g. using the convenience
opening feature (Y page 76). This will speed
up the cooling process and the desired inte-
rior temperature will be reached more
quickly.
i The integrated filter filters out most parti-
cles of dust and soot and completely filters
out pollen. It also reduces gaseous pollutants and odors. A clogged filter reduces the
amount of air supplied to the vehicle interior.
For this reason, you should always observe
the interval for replacing the filter, which is
specified in the Maintenance Booklet. As it
depends on environmental conditions, e.g.
heavy air pollution, the interval may be
shorter than stated in the Maintenance Book-
let.
i It is possible that under certain circumstan-
ces the residual heat function may be activa-
ted automatically an hour after the SmartKey has been removed in order to dry the auto-
matic climate control. The vehicle is then ven-tilated for 30 minutes. Control panel for dual-zone automatic climate control
