Important safety notes
GWARNING
If children are left unsupervised in the vehicle,
they could:
Ropen the doors, thus endangering other
people or road users.
Rget out and disrupt traffic.
Roperate the vehicle's equipment.
Additionally, children could set the vehicle in
motion if, for example, they:
Rrelease the parking brake.
Rshifting the automatic transmission out of
park positionP
RStart the engine.
There is a risk of an accident and injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always take the
SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle. Never
leave children or animals unattended in the
vehicle. Always keep the SmartKey out of
reach of children.
GWARNING
If you attach heavy or large objects to the
SmartKey, the SmartKey could be uninten-
tionally turned in the ignition lock. This could
cause the engine to be switched off. There is a
risk of an accident.
Do not attach any heavy or large objects to the
SmartKey. Remove any bulky key rings before
inserting the SmartKey into the ignition lock.
!Keep the SmartKey away from strong mag-netic fields. Otherwise, the remote controlfunction could be affected.
Strong magnetic fields can occur in the vicin-ity of powerful electrical installations.
Do not keep the SmartKey:
Rwith electronic devices, e.g. a mobile phoneor another SmartKey.
Rwith metallic objects, e.g. coins or metal foil.
Rinside metallic objects, e.g. a metal case.
This can affect the functionality of the Smart-Key.
Vehicles with KEYLESS-GO start function:donot keep the SmartKey in the cargo compart-ment. Otherwise, the SmartKey may not bedetected, e.g. when starting the engine usingthe Start/Stop button.
A brief radio connection between the vehicleand the SmartKey determines whether a validSmartKey is in, or in the direct vicinity of, thevehicle. This occurs, for example:
Rwhen starting the engine
Rwhile driving
Rwhen using HANDS-FREE ACCESS
Rwhen the external door handles are touched
Rduring convenience closing

Overview of climate control systems
General notes
Observe the settings recommended on the fol-lowing pages. The windows could otherwise fogup.
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" functionbriefly, if required
Climate control regulates the temperature andair humidity in the vehicle interior. The interiorfilter cleans the air, thus improving the interiorclimate.
The "Cooling with air dehumidification" functionis only available when the engine is running.Optimum climate control is only achieved withthe side windows and roof closed.
If you start the engine using your smartphone,the last selected climate control setting is reac-tivated (Ypage 134).
The integrated filter filters out most particles ofdust and soot and completely filters out pollen.It also reduces gaseous pollutants and odors. Aclogged filter reduces the amount of air suppliedto the vehicle interior. For this reason, youshould always observe the interval for replacingthe filter, which is specified in the MaintenanceBooklet. As it depends on environmental condi-tions, e.g. heavy air pollution, the interval maybe shorter than stated in the Maintenance Book-let.
iVentilate the vehicle for a brief period duringwarm weather, e.g. using the convenienceopening feature (Ypage 91). This will speedup the cooling process and the desired inte-rior temperature will be reached morequickly.
iIt is possible that the blower may be activa-ted automatically 60 minutes after the Smart-Key has been removed depending on variousfactors, e.g. the outside temperature. Thevehicle is then ventilated for 30 minutes to drythe automatic climate control.
