Curv ed mirrors (convex or aspheric) en-
large the field of vision and can make
objects in the mirror seem smaller and
further away than they actually are.
x Using curved mirrors to estimate the
distance from other vehicles behind you
when changing lanes can provide inac-
curate results and can lead to accidents
and severe injuries.
x Whenever possible, use the interior mir-
ror to check the exact distance between
your vehicle and following traffic or oth-
er objects.
x Ensure that you have a good view to the
rear of the vehicle. WARNING
Automatic anti-dazzle mirrors contain an
electrolyte fluid which could leak if the mir-
ror is broken.
x The leaking electrolyte fluid can cause
irritation to the skin, eyes and respirato-
ry organs, especially in people who suf

-
fer from asthma or similar illnesses. Im-
mediately ensure that there is a suffi-
cient supply of fresh air and get out of
the vehicle. If this is not possible, open
all of the windows and doors.
x If the electrolyte fluid gets into the eyes
or onto the skin, immediately wash the
area with plenty of water for at least
15 minutes and consult a doctor.
x If the electrolyte fluid gets onto shoes or
clothing, wash immediately with plenty
of water for at least 15 minutes. Clean
shoes and clothes thoroughly before
wearing them again.
x If the electrolyte fluid is swallowed, im-
mediately rinse the mouth with plenty
of water for at least 15 minutes. Do not
induce vomiting unless instructed to do
so by a doctor. Seek medical assistance
immediately. NOTICE
If the glass of an automatic anti-dazzle mirror
is broken, electrolyte fluid can leak from the mirror. This fluid attacks plastic surfaces. Re-
mo
ve the fluid as soon as possible, e.g. using
a wet sponge. Interior mirror

WARNING
Closing the sun blind without the roll-back
function can cause serious injuries.
x Always close the sun blind carefully.
x Ensure that nobody obstructs the path
of the sun blind, especially if the roll-
back function is not activ
e when it is
closed.
x The roll-back function does not prevent
fingers or other body parts from being
pressed against the roof frame and sus-
taining injury. Heating and air condi-
tioning system
Heating, v

entilation,
cooling Introduction to the topic
The Climatronic is an automatic air condi-
tioning system that heats, cools and dehu-
midifies the air. Automatic mode enables the
Climatronic to control the air temperature, air
distribution and air v

olume automatically.
The air conditioning system will work most
effectively if the vehicle interior is kept
closed. Opening the windows and glass roof
to provide fresh air may accelerate cooling
down the vehicle if high temperatures have
built up in the vehicle interior.
Display of active functions
Illuminated symbols on the sensor buttons
indicate that the function is switched on.
Colour-coded function buttons display an ac-
tivated function in the climate settings on
the Infotainment system.
Operating the air conditioning system with
voice commands
Depending on the vehicle equipment, some
functions of the air conditioning system can
be operated with the voice control function

WARNING
Poor visibility through the door windows,
windscreen and rear window increases the
risk of collisions and accidents which can
cause serious injuries.
x Keep all door windows, the windscreen
and the rear window free from ice, snow
and condensation to maintain perf
ect
visibility.
x Adjust the heating, air conditioning and
rear window heating to prevent conden-
sation from forming on the windows.
x Only set off once all windows are clear.
x Use air recirculation mode for a short
period only. Condensation could other-
wise form very quickly on the windows,
greatly reducing visibility.
x Switch off the air recirculation mode
when it is no longer required. NOTICE
Food, medicine and other items that are sen-
sitiv
e to heat or cold could be either dam-
aged or rendered useless by the air flowing
out of the vents.
x Never leave food, medicines or other tem-
perature-sensitive objects in front of the
vents. NOTICE
If the air conditioning system is not working,
switch the air conditioning system off imme-
diately and ha

ve it checked by a qualified
workshop. This can help to prevent secondary
damage. Overview of functions
Please refer to and at the start of
the chapter on page 120.
Some functions of the air conditioning sys-
tem and menus in the Inf

Practical equipment
Stowage areas Introduction to the topic
WARNING
Loose objects may be flung through the ve-
hicle interior in the e vent of a sudden driv-
ing or braking manoeuvre. This can cause
serious injury and can also lead to loss of
control of the vehicle.
x Stow objects only in closed stowage
compartments.
x Always keep stowage compartments
closed while the vehicle is in motion.
x The coat hooks in the vehicle should on-
ly be used for lightweight clothing
weighing max. 2.5 kg (approx. 5.5 lbs).
Never leave any heavy, hard or sharp ob-
jects in the pockets. WARNING
If the glove box is left open, this can in-
crease the risk of serious injury in the e
vent
of an accident or during sudden braking or
driving manoeuvres.
x Always keep the glove box closed while
the vehicle is in motion. WARNING
Any lighters in the vehicle could be dam-
aged or accidentally lit. This could lead to
serious burns and other injuries.
x Bef

ore closing stowage areas or com-
partments always make sure that there
is no lighter in the way.
x Never stow lighters in stowage areas or
compartments or on other surfaces in
the vehicle. High surface temperatures,
especially in summer, may cause lighters
to self-ignite. WARNING
Incorrect use of the drink holders can cause
injury.
x Ne

ver place hot drinks in a drink holder.
Hot drinks in a drink holder could be
spilled and cause scalding in any sudden
braking manoeuvre or accident.
x Make sure that only drinks of the appro-
priate size are placed in the drink holder.
Drinks must always be stored securely in
the drink holder. WARNING
Closed drink bottles can explode in the ve-
hicle in e
xtreme heat or burst in extremely
cold temperatures.
x Never leave closed drink bottles in an
extremely hot or extremely cold vehicle
for extended periods. NOTICE
x Do not stow any temperature-sensitiv
e
objects, food or medicines inside the vehi-
cle. Hot and cold temperatures could dam-
age them or render them unusable.
x Objects stored in the vehicle that are
made from transparent materials, such as
transparent suction cups on the windows,
can concentrate the sun
