while, the parking light may switch off auto-
matically. Always make sure your vehicle is
parked and adequately illuminated accord-
ing to the legal regulations in the country
where you are operating the vehicle. Avoid
using the parking lights for several hours.
— Observe the legal regulations in the country

—To reduce the risk of damage to the vehicle
electrical system, never attempt to charge
the vehicle battery by connecting accesso-
ries that provide power to the power sour-
ces.
— Do not connect any device whose network
class (voltage) does not match the network
class designed for the socket.

essary > fig. 53.

ZX WARNING
Spilled hot liquid can increase the risk of acci-
dents and injuries.
— Never drive with containers that contain hot
liquid such as coffee or tea. The hot liquid
could spill and cause burns during a colli-
sion, sudden braking or other vehicle move-
ment. Spilled hot liquid can also increase
the risk of accidents and injuries.
— Only use soft containers in the cup holders.
Hard cups and glasses can increase the risk
of injury during a collision.
— Never use the cup holder or the adapter as
an ashtray because this is a fire hazard.


C) Note
Beverage containers in the cup holders should
always
have a lid. Otherwise, the liquid inside
could spill and cause damage to vehicle
equipment.
Additional storage
You will find a range of storage compartments
and holders at different locations in the vehicle.
— Compartments in the doors
— Storage area in the glove compartment. The
glove
compartment can be locked using the
mechanical key > page 23.

rest*
— Storage compartment between the seat backr-
ests
— Key compartment in the center console
— Storage compartment on the rear side of the
seat*. The compartment can hold a maximum
weight of 2.2 lbs (1 kg).

ZA WARNING
—To reduce the risk of injury, make sure the
covers for all storage compartments are al-
ways closed while driving.
— Only use the storage compartments in the
door trim panels to store small objects that
will not stick out of the compartment and
impair the function of the side airbags.

— Switching manual recirculation mode on and
off: Press the > button.
— Automatic* recirculation mode: auto recircula-
tion needs to be activated in the Infotainment
system. Select in the Infotainment system:
[MENU] button > Vehicle > left control button >
Vehicle settings > Air conditioning > Auto re-
circulation. The air quality sensor that is de-
signed for diesel and gasoline exhaust auto-
matically switches the recirculation mode on or
off depending on the level of pollutants in the
outside air.

In recirculation mode, the air inside the vehicle is
circulated and filtered. This prevents the unfil-
tered air outside the vehicle from entering the
vehicle interior. Switching recirculation mode on
when driving through a tunnel or when sitting in
traffic is recommended > A.
Pressing the <> button, AUTO or the & button
switches recirculation mode off.
® Defrosting
The windshield and side windows are defrosted
or cleared of condensation as quickly as possible.
The optimum amount of air flows mainly out of
the vents under the windshield. Recirculation
mode switches off. The temperature is controlled
automatically.
The AUTO button switches the defroster off.
{ Rear window defogger
If the rear window defogger is activated when
the ignition is switched on, the battery manage-
ment determines based on the battery charge if
it is possible to turn on. Otherwise, the rear win-
dow defogger functions with the engine running
and switches off automatically after approxi-
mately 10 - 20 minutes, depending on the out-
side temperature.
To prevent the rear window defogger from
switching off automatically, press and hold the
® button for more than two seconds. This re-
mains stored up to approximately 15 minutes af-
ter turning off the ignition.

Z\ WARNING
You should not use the recirculation mode for
an extended period since no fresh air is drawn
in. With the air-conditioning switched off, the
windows can fog up, which increases the risk
of an accident.

ferent types of vehicle characteristics in one vehi-
cle. The driver can select from three modes,
Comfort,
Auto, and Dynamic, using the sist but-
ton in the center console or by using the Infotain-
ment system. This allows you to switch between
a sporty and a comfortable driving mode, for ex-
ample. In the Individual mode, the settings can
be adjusted to your personal preferences. This
makes it possible to combine settings such as a
sporty engine setting with light steering.

Z\ WARNING

ZA\ WARNING
Improper operation of the rear spoiler can
cause crushing injuries.
— Always make sure that nobody, especially
children, is in the way when the rear spoiler
is deployed or retracted.

() Note
— Never push on the vehicle on the rear spoil-
er. This could cause damage.
— To prevent damage to the rear spoiler do
not lean or place anything on it.
— Only operate the rear spoiler manually when
the luggage compartment lid is close and
the rear spoiler moving parts are not
blocked. Otherwise, damage could occur.
@ Tips
Clean the rear spoiler compartment every 2 to
3 months. To function correctly, the rear
spoiler must be free of ice, snow and leaves.
Energy management
Your vehicle is equipped with an intelligent ener-
gy management system for distributing electrici-
ty. This significantly improves the starting ability
and increases the vehicle battery life.
@ Tips
— If you drive short distances frequently, the
vehicle battery may not charge enough
while driving. As a result, convenience func-
tions for electrical equipment may be tem-
porarily unavailable.
— The vehicle battery will gradually drain if
the vehicle is not driven for long periods of
time, or if electrical equipment is used
when the engine is not running. To ensure
that the vehicle can still be started, the
electrical equipment will be limited or
switched off.
Information about data
recorded by vehicle
control modules
Your vehicle is not equipped with a crash data re-
corder. This device is installed by some vehicle
manufacturers to record data about crashes so
that it can be analyzed later. Crash data recorders
are also called “Event Data Recorders (EDR)”.
In some legal jurisdictions, it is not permitted to
access or download data recorded by pre-instal-
led crash data recorders in order to evaluate a
crash without clear consent of the vehicle owner.
Your vehicle is not equipped with a crash data re-
corder. However it does contain a variety of elec-
tronic control modules for various vehicle sys-
tems such as engine function, exhaust treatment
or airbags and safety belts.
These electronic control modules record vehicle
data during normal driving for diagnosis and re-
pair purposes. The recording capability of the
electronic control modules is limited to data only
- no sound is recorded. If the control module de-
tects a system malfunction or other change in
status, a very limited amount of data is recorded
for an extremely small period of time. Data that
is recorded in such a case may include vehicle
speed, driving direction, the load on the brakes
and head restraints and performance in the event
of an accident or other change in status. The stor-
ed data can only be read or downloaded with spe-
cial devices.
