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:
Rswitch off climate control only briefly
Rswitch on air-recirculation mode only briefly
Rswitch on the cooling with air dehumidifica-
tion function
Ractivate the "Windshield defrosting" function
briefly, if required
Climate control regulates the temperature and
air humidity in the vehicle interior. The interior
filter cleans the air, thus improving the interior
climate.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" function
is only available when the engine is running.
Optimum climate control is only achieved with
the side windows and roof closed.
If you start the engine using your smartphone,
the last selected climate control setting is reac-
tivated (
Ypage 133). The integrated filter filters out most particles of
dust and soot and completely filters out pollen.
It also reduces gaseous pollutants and odors. A
clogged filter reduces the amount of air suppliedto 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 condi-
tions, e.g. heavy air pollution, the interval may
be shorter than stated in the Maintenance Book-
let.
iVentilate the vehicle for a brief period during
warm weather, e.g. using the convenience
opening feature (
Ypage 91). This will speed
up the cooling process and the desired inte-
rior temperature will be reached more
quickly.
iIt is possible that the blower may be activa-
ted automatically 60 minutes after the Smart-
Key has been removed depending on various
factors, e.g. the outside temperature. The
vehicle is then ventilated for 30 minutes to dry
the automatic climate control.

Optimum use of automatic climate
control
Optimum use of automatic climate con-
trol
The following contains notes and recommenda-
tions on how best to use dual-zone automatic
climate control or 3-zone automatic climate
control.
XActivate climate control using the Ã
rocker switch. The indicator lamp above the Ã
rocker switch lights up. The "Cooling
with dehumidification" function is activated in
automatic mode.
XSet the temperature to 72 ‡ (22 †).
iOnly use the "Windshield defrosting" func-
tion briefly until the windshield is clear again.
iOnly use air-recirculation mode briefly, e.g.
if there are unpleasant outside odors or when
in a tunnel. The windows could otherwise fog
up, since no fresh air is drawn into the vehicle in air-recirculation mode.
120Overview of climate control systems
Climate control

Vehicles with 3-zone automatic climate control:
use the "Residual heat" function if you want to
heat or ventilate the vehicle interior when the
ignition is switched off. The residual heat func-
tion can only be activated or deactivated with
the ignition switched off. The residual heat func-
tion is deactivated when the ignition is switched
on.
DYNAMIC SELECT switch (except
Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 4MATIC/
GLC 63 S 4MATIC)
You can choose between various drive programs
with the DYNAMIC SELECT switch
(
Ypage 138).
If you have selected drive program E:
Rwhen heating, the electrical heater booster is
deactivated and heat output is reduced as a
result
Rthe rear window defroster running time is
reduced
If you have selected drive program C,Sor S+,
the current climate settings are maintained.
ECO start/stop function
During automatic engine switch-off, the climate
control system only operates at a reduced capa-
city. If you require the full climate control output,
you can switch off the ECO start/stop function
by pressing the ECO button (
Ypage 136).
Operating the climate control sys-
tems
Activates/deactivates climate con-
trol
General notes
When the climate control is switched off, the air
supply and air circulation are also switched off.
The windows could fog up. Therefore, switch off
climate control only briefly
Switch on climate control primarily using the
à rocker switch (
Ypage 122).
Activating/deactivating
XTurn the SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock (Ypage 130).
XTo switch on: set the airflow to level 1or
higher using the Hrocker switch.
XTo switch off: set the airflow to level 0using
the H rocker switch.
i3-zone automatic climate control: when cli-
mate control is switched off, "OFF" appears in
the rear-compartment display.
Switching cooling with air dehumidification on/off
General notes
If you deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehumidification" function, the air inside the vehicle will not
be cooled. The air inside the vehicle will also not be dehumidified. The windows can fog up more
quickly. Therefore, only deactivate the "Cooling with air-dehumidification" function briefly.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" function is only available when the engine is running. The air
inside the vehicle is cooled and dehumidified according to the temperature selected.
Condensation may drip from the underside of the vehicle when it is in cooling mode. This is normal
and not a sign that there is a malfunction.
Activating/deactivating
XPress the ¿rocker switch up or down.
The indicator lamp above the rocker switch lights up or goes out.

Problems with the "Cooling with air dehumidification" function
ProblemPossible causes/consequences andMSolutions
The indicator lamp above
the¿ rocker switch
remains off. The cooling
with air dehumidification
function cannot be acti-
vated via the multimedia
system any longer
(
Ypage 271).
Cooling with air dehumidification has been deactivated due to a mal-
function.
XVisit a qualified specialist workshop.
Setting climate control to automatic
General notes
In automatic mode, the set temperature is main-
tained automatically at a constant level. The
system automatically regulates the temperature
of the dispensed air, the airflow and the air dis-
tribution.
During automatic controlling, the "Cooling with
air dehumidification" function is activated.
Automatic control
XTurn the SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock (Ypage 130).
XTo activate: press theÃrocker switch up
or down.
The indicator lamp above the Ãrocker
switch lights up.
XSet the desired temperature using the w
rocker switch on the front control unit.
XTo switch to manual operation: press the
H rocker switch up or down.
or
XPress the _rocker switch up or down.
The indicator lamp above the Ãrocker
switch goes out.
In automatic mode, if you adjust the airflow or
air distribution manually, the indicator lamp
above the Ãrocker switch goes out. The
function which has not been changed manually,
however, continues to be controlled automati-
cally. When the manually set function switches
back to automatic mode, the indicator lamp
above the Ãrocker switch lights up again.
Adjusting the climate mode settings
This function is only available with 3-zone auto-
matic climate control.
In automatic mode you can select the following
airflow settings for the driver's and front-
passenger areas:
FOCUS high airflow, slightly cooler setting
MEDIUM medium airflow, standard setting
DIFFUSE low airflow, slightly warmer and draft-
free setting
XTo set:set the climate mode using the mul-
timedia system (Ypage 271).
Setting the temperature
Dual-zone automatic climate control
Different temperatures can be set for the driv-
er's and front-passenger sides.
XTurn the SmartKey to position 2in the igni-
tion lock (Ypage 130).
XTo increase or reduce: press thew
rocker switch up or down.
Only change the temperature setting in small
increments. Start at 72 ‡ (22 †).
Dual-zone automatic climate control
General notes
You can select different temperature settings
for the driver's and front-passenger sides as well as for the rear compartment.
