outside temperature is slightly above
the freezing point. Therefore,
condensation may form and drip from
under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch off the cooling system for fuel
saving reasons.
Activated cooling may inhibit
Autostops.

quickly.
Parking heater
The parking heater allows to heat the
vehicle's interior and to ventilate the
vehicle's interior with ambient air.
The operating status of the parking
heater is shown by an indicator with a LED.
● LED illuminates: A timer has been set.
● LED flashes: The system is operating.
The LED is extinguished at the end of
the heating operation or when the
parking heater is stopped using the
remote control.
The parking heater can be
programmed using the Graphic Info
Display / Colour Info Display.
Additionally, the parking heater can
be switched on and off using a remote control.
Notice
The programmed heating /
ventilation is only activated if the
ignition is off and the vehicle is
locked.
If the charging level of the high
voltage battery is below 50%, the
programmed heating / ventilation is
not activated.
If a recurrent heating / ventilation is
programmed and two heating /
ventilation procedures are carried
out without operating the vehicle, the
programmation is deactivated.

132Climate controlFixed air vents
Additional air vents are located
beneath the windscreen and door
windows and in the foot wells.
Glovebox cooler The air conditioning system draws
cooled air into the glovebox through a
noozle.
Move the slider back or forth in order
to enable or disable glovebox cooling.
Maintenance
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 the
outside temperature is too low.
Service For optimal cooling performance, it is recommended to annually check the
climate control system, starting
three 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 check

134Driving and operatingDriving hints
Control of the vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running
Many systems will not function in this situation ( e.g. brake servo unit, power
steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others.
All systems function during an
Autostop.
Stop-start system 3 138.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.
Use only floor mats, which fit properly
and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.Steering
If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.Starting and operating
New vehicle running-in Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and enginge oil evaporating off the exhaust system.
Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period, fuel and engine oil consumption may be
higher.
Additionally, the cleaning process of
the exhaust filter may take place more
often.
