Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class, Instruction Booklet

Page: 13 / 20

Though it’s been rigorously engineered in some of the most brutal conditions across the globe, the
GLK-Class is itself a most comforting habitat. Its highly rigid body envelops a decidely flexible and
accommodating cabin, with 8-way power front seats and versatile split rear seats that fold flat in a
single motion. Rich materials are crafted with time-honored attention to detail. Upholstery is lovingly
fitted by hand. Sustainably forested, hand-polished Burl Walnut wood is accented with chrome and
aluminum, and carefully inlaid to the dash, console and doors. Finely grained leather is impeccably
stitched to the steering wheel and gearshift. An optional Full Leather Seating Package further sets
the cabin aglow with illuminated door handles and front footwells. And powerful dual-zone climate
control, proven from desert heat to polar frosts, filters dust and pollen from the cabin air. Even if
you never plan to cross the Sahara, you just might find yourself on a deserted highway or in a dense
urban jungle. Wherever you go, the capable, comforting GLK-Class keeps you cradled in civilization.
an advanced degree in civil engineering.
Attentive. The front seats offer 8-way power adjustment plus
a manual lumbar support for the driver. The steering column
tilts and telescopes. With the optional Premium 1 Package,
the driver seat adds a 3-position memory system that also
recalls the settings for the power-adjustable steering column
and side mirrors, as well as a 4-way power lumbar support.
Agreeable.
Standard dual-zone automatic climate control
allows the driver and front passenger to peacefully coexist in
individualized comfort. Adjustable rear-cabin air vents, plus
a sensor that monitors the position and intensity of sunlight,
help to assure more consistent comfort for all passengers.
Adaptable.
The 60/40 -split rear seatbacks fold to create
up to 54.7 cu ft of cargo space — without needing to flip up
the cushions first. The liftgate opens virtually level with the
carpeted cargo floor, while a chrome load -sill plate helps
protect the rear bumper. Luggage-area luxuries also include
a 12-volt power port and a retractable cargo cover.
Accommodating. The optional Premium 1 Package includes
a suite of conveniences that make any drive more enjoyable.
Among its many features are rain-sensing wipers that
automatically adapt their speed to the amount of rainfall
detected on the windshield. The inside and driver-side mirrors
are auto-dimming, with the interior mirror also featuring a
digital compass display and integrated garage door controls.
Approachable. The Premium 1 Package also enhances the
versatility of the GLK-Class with a household-type 115-volt
AC power outlet that lets you charge your laptop or camera,
or plug in a portable gaming console for your kids, without
a special adapter. And a power liftgate fully opens or closes
with a touch of a button, to help make loading and unloading
easier — especially in the rain or with an armful of packages.
