Air conditioning system
Cooling (A/C)Press A/C to switch on cooling. The
LED in the button illuminates to
indicate activation. Cooling is only
functional when the engine is running and climate control fan is switched on.
Press A/C again to switch off cooling.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) the air when
outside temperature is a little above
the freezing point. Therefore
condensation may form and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch the cooling system off to save
fuel.
Note
If the climate control is set to
maximum cooling while the ambient temperature is high, an Autostop
may be inhibited until the required
temperature in the passenger
compartment has been reached.
If the climate control is set to
maximum cooling while the engine is in an Autostop, the engine may
restart automatically.
Stop-start system 3 228.

210Climate controlAir recirculation system
Press n to activate air recirculation
mode. The LED in the button
illuminates to indicate activation.
Press n again to deactivate air
recirculation mode.
9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up. The quality
of the passenger compartment air
deteriorates, which may cause the vehicle occupants to feel drowsy.

air flow.
The system can be manually adapted by use of air distribution and air flow
controls.
The electronic climate control system
is only fully operational when the
engine is running.
For correct operation, do not cover
the sensor on the instrument panel.
Automatic mode

Climate control211Basic setting for maximum comfort:● Press AUTO (AUTO appears in
the display).
● Set desired temperature (the temperature appears in the
display).
● Open all air vents.
During automatic mode, the settings for fan speed, air distribution, air
conditioning and air recirculation are
automatically regulated by the system
and are not shown on the display.
Temperature preselection
Temperatures can be set to the
desired value with the two buttons
below the display.
For reasons of comfort, change
temperature only in small increments.
red:warmblue:coldHeating will not be fully effective until
the engine has reached normal
operating temperature.
If the minimum temperature of 15 ℃
is set, the electronic climate control
system runs at maximum cooling.
If the maximum temperature of 27 ℃
is set, the electronic climate control
system runs at maximum heating.
Note
If the temperature is to be reduced
for climate comfort reasons, an
Autostop can be inhibited or the
engine will restart automatically
when cooling is switched on.
Stop-start system 3 228.
Fan speed
Fan speed can be increased or
decreased with the x buttons.
The selected fan speed is indicated
with x in the display.
If the fan is switched off, the air
conditioning is also deactivated.
To return to automatic mode: Press AUTO .
Demisting and defrosting the
windows
Press V. The LED illuminates.
Temperature and air distribution are
set automatically, air conditioning is
switched on and the fan runs at a high
speed.
Heated rear window, heated exterior
mirrors are also switched on
automatically. Press Ü to switch off
without deactivating demisting /
defrosting of the windows. The fan speed can also be decreased.
To return to automatic mode: press
V or AUTO .

If V is pressed while the engine is
running, an Autostop will be inhibited
until V is pressed again.
If V is pressed while the engine is
in an Autostop, the engine will restart

Cooling
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) when outside
temperature is above a specific level. Therefore condensation may form
and drip from under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
press A/C OFF to switch the cooling
system off, thus saving fuel.
A/C OFF appears in the display.

The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up. The quality
of the passenger compartment air
deteriorates, which may cause the vehicle occupants to feel drowsy.

Climate control213Rear heating system
If the engine is switched off, the rear
compartment can be heated by the
additional heating, through low level
vents.
By programming values using the
control panel, the user can adjust the
time, day and temperature settings.
Heating will cease to operate if the
vehicle fuel level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
Note
If the rear heating system is
activated while the engine is
running, an Autostop will be
inhibited.
To ensure efficient performance, the
low level air vents in the rear
passenger compartment must not be
obstructed.9 Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).
9 Warning
If the warning light illuminates in
combination with the hazard
warning flashers, stop vehicle and switch off engine as soon as
possible. Evacuate the vehicle, there is a risk of fire.

216Climate controlCombi
Additional air conditioning is supplied to the rear passenger compartment
via the air vents located above the
driver and front passenger
compartment.
With the front passenger
compartment air conditioning system
switched on, adjust the air flow to
select the desired speed.
Ensure the air vents are open when in use, to prevent ice forming in the
system due to lack of air movement.
Auxiliary heater Coolant heater
The engine-independent, fuel-
powered coolant heater provides rapid heating of the engine coolant to
enable heating of the vehicle interior
without the engine running.
Note
Depending on version, an additional
coolant heater may be switched on
automatically to speed up heating
when the ignition is on and the
outside temperature is below 5 ℃.9 Warning
Do not operate the system when
refuelling, when dust or
combustible vapours are present
or in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garage).
Before starting or programming the
system to start, turn the vehicle's
climate control system to heat, set the
air distribution to V and turn the fan
on.
Switch off when not required. Heating stops automatically after the
programmed runtime. It will also
cease to operate if the vehicle fuel
level drops too low.
During operation, power from the
vehicle battery is used. The driving
time should therefore be at least as
long as the heating time. For short
journey times, check the vehicle
battery regularly and recharge if
necessary.
To ensure efficient performance,
briefly operate the auxiliary heater
once a month.
Control units
The timer or remote control unit turns the system on and off, and is used to
programme specific departure times.

Climate control223Maintenance
Air 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.
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.
ServiceFor optimal cooling performance, it is
recommended to annually check the
climate control system, starting
3 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 checkNote
Refrigerant R-134a may contain
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 in
Combi variants is filled with 1.1 kg
and has a CO 2 equivalent of
1.57 tonnes and the front and rear air
conditioning system in Bus variants
is filled with 1.7 kg and has a CO 2
equivalent of 2.43 tonnes.
Depending on vehicle, information
regarding air conditioning refrigerant
appears on a label located in the
engine compartment.
