Outside air

Keep the air intakes forward of thewindscreen free from obstruction (snow,leaves etc.) to allow the climate controlsystem to function effectively.

Recirculated air

CAUTION

Prolonged use of recirculated air maycause the windows to mist up. If thewindows mist up, follow the settings

for defrosting and demisting thewindscreen.

The air currently in the passengercompartment will be recirculated. Outsideair will not enter the vehicle.

Heating

Heating performance depends on thetemperature of the engine coolant.

Air conditioning

Note: The air conditioning operates onlywhen the temperature is above 4ºC(39ºF).

Note: If you use the air conditioning, thefuel consumption of your vehicle will behigher.

Air is directed through the evaporatorwhere it is cooled. Humidity is extractedfrom the air to help keep the windows freeof mist. The resulting condensation isdirected to the outside of the vehicle andit is therefore normal if you see a smallpool of water under your vehicle.

General information oncontrolling the interior climate

Fully close all the windows.

Warming the interior

Direct the air towards your feet. In cold orhumid weather conditions, direct someof the air towards the windscreen and thedoor windows.

AUXILIARYHEATER

Programmableauxiliaryheater

WARNINGSThe programmable auxiliary heatermust not be operated in enclosedspaces, at filling stations or near

sources of combustible vapours or dust.

The programmable auxiliary heatershould be switched on forapproximately 10 minutes at least

once a month all year round. Thisprevents the water pump and heatermotor from seizing.

To avoid corrosion, the coolant inyour vehicle should contain at least10 % antifreeze all year round.

Note: The programmable auxiliary heaterwill only operate if there is at least 7.5 litresof fuel in the fuel tank.

Note: The heating depends on theoutside air temperature.

Note: It is possible that when theprogrammable auxiliary heater isactivated, exhaust fumes may come fromunder the sides of the vehicle. This isnormal.

Note: On vehicles with manual climatecontrol the heating of the vehicle interioris dependent on the temperature, airdistribution and blower control settings.

The programmable auxiliary heateroperates independently of the vehicleheater by heating the engine’s coolantcircuit. It is fed from the vehicle fuel tank.

Used properly, the programmable auxiliaryheater provides the following benefits:• It preheats the interior of the vehicle.

• It keeps the windows clear of ice inthe event of frost and preventscondensation.

• It avoids cold starts and allows theengine to reach operatingtemperature sooner.

The programmable auxiliary heater mayalso be used while the vehicle is in motionto help the vehicle heater and warm upthe interior more quickly.

To prevent the battery from discharging:• Once the programmable auxiliary

heater has performed one heatingcycle, the next programmed heatertime will only be carried out if thevehicle’s engine has been started inbetween.

• After a heating cycle, the vehicleshould be driven for at least the periodof the heating cycle.

Programming the auxiliary heater

The auxiliary heater is programmed usingthe information display. SeeInformation displays (page 82).

Auxiliary heater

The diesel auxiliary heater (PTC electricalheater) aids in warming the engine andthe interior compartment on vehicles withdiesel engines. It is automatically switchedon or off depending on the outsidetemperature, the coolant temperatureand the alternator load.

Engineidlespeedafterstarting

The speed at which the engine idlesimmediately after starting will varydepending on the engine temperature.

If the engine is cold then the idle speedwill automatically be increased in order toheat the catalytic converter as quickly aspossible. This ensures that vehicleemissions are kept to an absoluteminimum.

The idle speed will slowly decrease to thenormal level as the catalytic converterwarms up.

STARTINGAPETROLENGINE - E85

For general information on starting apetrol engine. See Starting a petrolengine (page 118).

Starting at lowambienttemperatures

When the temperature is lower than -10°C(14°F) and the vehicle is filled with E85, anengine block heater should be used tofacilitate starting. See Engine heater(page 123). Failure to do this will result in anon start.

If the temperature is expected to remainbelow -10°C (14°F), it is recommendedthat you increase the proportion of petrolin the tank by topping up with 95 octaneunleaded petrol if the tank is not alreadyfull. About 10 litres (2.2 gallons) of petrolwill reduce the proportion of E85 in a ¾full tank from 85% to 70% and willconsiderably improve cold start capability.

If, at very low temperatures, the tank isfilled with only E85 and there is no way touse an engine block heater, you mayexperience difficulties starting the engine.

If the engine fails to start, proceed asfollows:

1. Fully depress the accelerator pedal.

2. Turn the ignition key to position III.

CAUTION

Release the ignition key as soon asthe engine has started.

3. Gradually release the acceleratorpedal after 5 seconds of enginecranking or as the engine speed rises.

If the engine fails to start, repeat steps 1,2 and 3, or connect an engine blockheater for two hours before attemptinganother start.

During starting, the fuel injectors areturned off as long as the accelerator pedalis depressed. This can be used to drainexcessive fuel from the intake manifoldafter several unsuccessful startingattempts.

119

Starting the engine

If the battery has been disconnected orafter the fuel type has been changed, theidle speed may be irregular. This willimprove after 10 to 30 seconds.

Regeneration

WARNING

Do not park or idle your vehicle overdry leaves or dry grass or othercombustible material. The

regeneration process requires very highexhaust gas temperatures and theexhaust will radiate a considerableamount of heat during and afterregeneration, and after you have switchedthe engine off. This is a potential firehazard.

Unlike a normal filter which requiresperiodic replacement, the DPF has beendesigned to regenerate, or clean itself tomaintain operating efficiency. Theregeneration process takes placeautomatically. However, some drivingconditions mean that you may need tosupport the regeneration process.

If you drive only short distances or yourjourneys contain frequent stopping andstarting, occasional trips with the followingconditions could assist the regenerationprocess:

• Drive your vehicle, preferably on amain road or motorway, for up to 20minutes avoiding prolonged idling, butalways observing speed limits androad conditions.

• Do not switch off the ignition.

• Use a lower gear than normal tomaintain a higher engine speed duringthis journey, where appropriate.

SWITCHINGOFF THEENGINE

Vehicleswith a turbocharger

CAUTION

Do not switch the engine off when itis running at high speed. If you do,the turbocharger will continue

running after the engine oil pressure hasdropped to zero. This will lead topremature turbocharger bearing wear.

Release the accelerator pedal. Wait untilthe engine has reached idle speed andthen switch it off.

ENGINEHEATER

CAUTION

Make sure you disconnect the powercable from the engine heaterconnector before driving away.

Note: The engine heater connector islocated in the radiator grille at the front ofyour vehicle.

E97918

Connect the engine heater for 2 to 3hours before starting the engine.

SAFETYPRECAUTIONS

WARNINGSStop refuelling after the fuel nozzlestops the second time. Additionalfuel will fill the expansion space in

the fuel tank which could lead to fueloverflowing. Fuel spillage could behazardous to other road users.

Do not use any kind of flames orheat near the fuel system. The fuelsystem is under pressure. There is

a risk of injury if the fuel system is leaking.

FUELQUALITY - PETROL

Note:We recommend that you use onlyhigh quality fuel without additives or otherengine treatments.

CAUTION

Do not use leaded petrol or petrolwith additives containing othermetallic compounds (e.g.

manganese-based). They could damagethe emission system.

Use minimum95octane unleadedpetrol that meets the specification definedby EN228, or equivalent.

FUELQUALITY - E85

WARNINGSDo not modify the fuel systemconfiguration or the components inthe system.

Do not replace the fuel system orthe components with parts notspecially designed to be used with

E85.

CAUTIONSDo not use leaded petrol or petrolwith additives containing othermetallic compounds (e.g.

manganese-based). They could damagethe emission system.

Do not use methanol instead of E85.


Note: When using E85, you mayexperience a higher fuel consumption.

Note: The correct fuel type for yourvehicle is shown on a decal on the insideof the fuel filler flap.

Note: Your vehicle will operate well oncommercial quality 95 octane unleadedpetrol, but only high quality E85 offers thesame protection and performance.

Use minimum95octane unleadedpetrol that meets the specification definedby EN228, or equivalent. You can alsouse a mixture of unleaded petrol and E85.

Long-termstorage

Due to small amounts of corrosiveimpurities that may be found in the E85,it is recommended that you fill the tankwith only 95 octane unleaded petrol priorto long-term storage of your vehicle.

Parking

WARNING

Do not park your vehicle over dryleaves or dry grass. The exhaust willcontinue to radiate a considerable

amount of heat after you have switchedthe engine off. This is a potential firehazard.

FUEL FILLER FLAP

WARNINGSTake care when refuelling to avoidspilling any residual fuel from the fuelpipe nozzle.

We recommend that you wait atleast 10 seconds before removingthe fuel pipe nozzle to allow any

residual fuel to drain into the fuel tank.

CAUTION

If you use a high pressure spray towash your vehicle, only spray the fuelfiller flap briefly from a distance not

less than 20 centimetres (8 inches).

E86613

Open the flap fully until it engages.

E107539

Insert the filler up to the first notch on thenozzle, and keep it in position on the fuelfiller opening.

A funnel is located in the glove box. Usethis when refilling with a fuel can.

REFUELLING

CAUTION

Do not attempt to start the engine ifyou have filled the fuel tank with theincorrect fuel. This could damage the

engine. Have the system checked by aproperly trained technician immediately.

REFUELLING - E85

CAUTION

Do not attempt to start the engine ifyou have filled the fuel tank with theincorrect fuel. This could damage the

engine. Have the system checked by aproperly trained technician immediately.

After refuelling, allow 5 minutes of normalengine operation above 48 km/h (30mph) to reduce the risk of an increasedengine restart time.

FUELCONSUMPTION

TYRECARE

E70415

To make sure the front and rear tyres ofyour vehicle wear evenly and last longer,we recommend that you swap the tyresfrom front to rear and vice versa at regularintervals of between 5 000 and 10 000km (3 000 and 6 000 miles).

CAUTION

Do not scrub the sidewalls of thetyres when you are parking.

If you have to mount a kerb, do so slowlyand approach it with the wheels atright-angles to the kerb.

192

Wheels and tyres

Examine the tyres regularly for cuts,foreign objects and uneven wear of thetread. Uneven wear could mean that thewheel alignment is outside specification.

Check the tyre pressures (including thespare) when cold, every two weeks.

TYREREPAIRKIT

Your vehicle may not have a spare tyre.In this case it will have an emergency tyrerepair kit that can be used to repair oneflat tyre.

The tyre repair kit is located in the sparewheel well.

General information

WARNINGSDepending on the type and extentof tyre damage, some tyres canonly be partially sealed or not sealed

at all. Loss of tyre pressure can affectvehicle handling, leading to loss of vehiclecontrol.

Do not use the tyre repair kit if thetyre has already been damaged asa result of being driven under

inflated.

Do not try to seal damage otherthan that located within the visibletread of the tyre.

Do not try to seal damage to thetyre’s sidewall.

The tyre repair kit seals most tyrepunctures [with a diameter of up to sixmillimetres (1/4 inch)] to temporarilyrestore mobility.

Observe the following rules when usingthe kit:

• Drivewith caution and avoidmaking sudden steering ordrivingmanoeuvres, especially ifthe vehicle is heavily loaded or you aretowing a trailer.

• The kit will provide you with anemergency temporary repair, enablingyou to continue your journey to thenext vehicle or tyre dealer, or to drivea maximum distance of200 kilometres (125 miles).

• Do not exceed a maximumspeedof 80 km/h (50mph).

• Keep the kit out of the reach ofchildren.

• Only use the kit when the ambienttemperature is between –30°C (-22°F)and +70°C (+158°F).

Using the tyre repair kit

WARNINGSCompressed air can act as anexplosive or propellant.

Never leave the tyre repair kitunattended while in use.

CAUTION

Do not keep the compressoroperating for more than 10 minutes.

Note: Use the tyre repair kit only for thevehicle with which it was supplied.

• Park your vehicle at the roadside sothat you do not obstruct the flow oftraffic and so that you are able to usethe kit without being in danger.

• Apply the parking brake, even if youhave parked on a level road, to makesure that the vehicle will not move.

• Do not attempt to remove foreignobjects like nails or screws penetratingthe tyre.

193

Wheels and tyres

• Leave the engine running while the kitis in use, but not if the vehicle is in anenclosed or poorly ventilated area (forexample, inside a building). In thesecircumstances, switch thecompressor on with the engine turnedoff.

• Replace the sealant bottle with a newone before the expiry date (see topof bottle) is reached.

• Inform all other users of the vehiclethat the tyre has been temporarilysealed with the tyre repair kit andmake them aware of the specialdriving conditions to be observed.

Inflating the tyre

WARNINGSCheck the sidewall of the tyre priorto inflation. If there are any cracks,bumps or similar damage, do not

attempt to inflate the tyre.

Do not stand directly beside the tyrewhile the compressor is pumping.

WARNINGSWatch the sidewall of the tyre. If anycracks, bumps or similar damageappear, turn off the compressor and

let the air out by means of the pressurerelief valveB. Do not continue driving withthis tyre.

The sealant contains natural rubberlatex. Avoid contact with skin andclothing. If this happens, rinse the

affected areas immediately with plenty ofwater and contact your doctor.

If the tyre inflation pressure does notreach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within sevenminutes, the tyre may have suffered

excessive damage, making a temporaryrepair impossible. In this case, do notcontinue driving with this tyre.

CAUTION

Screwing the bottle onto the bottleholder will pierce the seal of thebottle. Do not unscrew the bottle

from the holder as the sealant will escape.

17. Immediately drive approximatelythree kilometres (two miles) so thatthe sealant can seal the damagedarea.

Note: When pumping in the sealantthrough the tyre valve, the pressure mayrise up to 6 bar (87 psi) but will drop againafter about 30 seconds.

196

Wheels and tyres

WARNING

If you experience heavy vibrations,unsteady steering behaviour ornoises while driving, reduce your

speed and drive with caution to a placewhere it is safe for you to stop the vehicle.Recheck the tyre and its pressure. If thetyre pressure is less than 1.3 bar (19 psi)or if there are any cracks, bumps or similardamage visible, do not continue drivingwith this tyre.

Checking the tyre pressure

1. Stop the vehicle after drivingapproximately three kilometres(two miles). Check, and wherenecessary, adjust the pressure of thedamaged tyre.

2. Attach the kit and read the tyrepressure from the pressure gauge F.

3. If the pressure of the sealant-filled tyreis 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it tothe specified pressure. SeeTechnical specifications (page199).

4. Follow the inflation procedure onceagain to top up the tyre.

5. Check the tyre pressure again fromthe pressure gauge F. If the tyrepressure is too high, deflate the tyreto the specified pressure using thepressure relief valve B.

6. Once you have inflated the tyre to itscorrect tyre pressure, move thecompressor switch H to position 0,remove the power plug G from thesocket, unscrew the hose C, fastenthe valve cap and replace theprotective cap A.

7. Leave the sealant bottleK in the bottleholder E and store the kit away safelyin its original location.

8. Drive to the nearest tyre specialist toget the damaged tyre replaced.Before the tyre is removed from therim, inform your tyre dealer that thetyre contains sealant. Renew the kitas soon as possible after it has beenused once.

Note: Remember that emergencyroadside tyre repair kits only providetemporary mobility. Regulationsconcerning tyre repair after usage of tyrerepair kit may differ from country tocountry. You should consult a tyrespecialist for advice.

WARNING

Before driving, make sure the tyreis adjusted to the recommendedinflation pressure. See Technical

specifications (page 199). Monitor thetyre pressure until the sealed tyre isreplaced.

Empty sealant bottles can be disposedof together with normal household waste.Return remains of sealant to your dealeror dispose of it in compliance with localwaste disposal regulations.

Only use snow chains on the front wheels.

Vehicleswith stability control(ESP)

Vehicles with stability control (ESP) mayexhibit some unusual drivingcharacteristics which can be avoided byswitching the system off. See Usingstability control (page 134).

TYREPRESSUREMONITORINGSYSTEM

WARNINGSThe system does not relieve you ofyour responsibility to regularly checkthe tyre pressures.

The system will only provide a lowtyre pressure warning. It will notinflate the tyres.

WARNINGSDo not drive on significantlyunder-inflated tyres. This may causethe tyres to overheat and fail.

Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency,tyre tread life and may also affect yourability to drive the vehicle safely.

CAUTIONSDo not bend or damage the valveswhen you are inflating the tyres.

Have tyres installed by properlytrained technicians.

The Deflation Detection System will alertyou if there is a change of air pressure inany tyre. It does this by using the ABSsensors to detect the rollingcircumference of the wheels. When thecircumference changes, this indicates lowpressure in a tyre, a warning message isdisplayed in the information display andthe message indicator will illuminate. SeeInformationmessages (page 89).

Apart from a too low tyre pressure or adamaged tyre, the following situations canaffect the rolling circumference:• Vehicle load is uneven.

• When using a trailer or travelling upand down an incline.

• Using snow chains.

• Driving on soft surfaces such as snowor mud.

Note: The system will still functioncorrectly, but there may be an increaseddetection time.

If a low pressure warning message isdisplayed in the information display, checkthe tyre pressures as soon as possibleand inflate them to the recommendedpressure. See Technicalspecifications (page 199).
