Operating conditions:
Ravoid short trips as these increase fuel con-
sumption.
Ralways make sure that the tire pressures
are correct.
Rdo not carry any unnecessary weight.
Rremove roof racks once you no longer need
them.
Raregularly serviced vehicle will contribute
to environmental protection. You should
therefore adhere to the service intervals.
Ralways have service work carried out at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
Rdo not depress the accelerator pedal when
starting the engine.
Rdo not warm up the engine when the vehicle
is stationary.
Rdrive carefully and maintain asafe distance
from the vehicle in front.
Ravoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
braking.
Rchange gear in good time and use each gear

Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you do not have the prescribed service/
maintenance work or any required repairs
carried out, this can result in malfunctions or system failures. There is arisk of an accident.
Alwaysh ave the prescribed service/mainte-
nance work as well as any required repairs
carried out at aqualified specialist workshop.
Air bags and pyrotechnic EmergencyT ensioning
Devices (ETDs) contain perchlorate material,
which may require special handling and regard
for the environment.T he guidelines must be
observed during disposal.
In California, you can find more information on
the Internet at www.dtsc.ca.gov.
Notes on operating the vehicle
There isarisk of damage to the vehicle if:
Rthe vehicle makes contact with the ground,
e.g. on ahigh curb or aloose road surface
Ryou drive too quickly over an obstacle, e.g. a
curb or apothole
Raheavy object hits the underbody or chassis
component
In these or similars ituations, the vehicle body/
frame, the underbody,c hassis components,
wheels or tires could be damaged even if this is
not visible from the outside. Components that
have been damaged in this way can unexpect-
edly fail or no longer be able to assimilate the
loads occurring in the event of an accident. If the underbody paneling is damaged,f lammable
material, such as leaves, grass or twigs, could
collect between the underbody and underbody
paneling. These materials could ignite if they
remain in contact with hot componentsoft he
exhaust system for an extended period.
GWARNING
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or
twigs may ignite if they come into contact with
hot parts of the exhaust system. There is arisk
of fire.
28Introduction

Windowcurtain air bags
Example:window curtai nair bag above front door
Example :window curtai nair bag for all rows of
seats
Windo wcurtai nair bags :or; are integrated
into the side of the roof frame. Windo wcurtain
air bag sfor all rows of seats ;deploy in the
area extending from the front door (A-pillar) to
the rear side window (D-pillar).
When deployed, the window curtai nair bag
offers additiona lheadp rotection. However, it
does not protect the chest or arms.
In the event of aside impact, the window curtain
air bag is deploye donthe side on which the
impact occurs.
If the syste mdetermines that it can offer addi-
tional protection to that provided by the seat
belt, awindow curtai nair bag may be deployed
in other accident situations (
Ypag e54).
Occupant Classificatio nSystem
(OCS)
Introduction
The Occupant Classification System (OCS) cat-
egorizes the personint he front-passenger seat.
Depending on that result, the front-passenger
front air bag is either enabled or deactivated.
The syste mdoes not disable:
Rthe side impact air bag
Rthe window curtai nair bag
Rthe Emergency Tensioning Devices
Conditions
To be classified correctly ,the front passenger
must sit:
Rwith the seatb eltfastened correctly
Rin an almost upright position with their back
against the seatb ackrest
Rwith their feet resting on the floor, if possible
If the front passenger does not observe these
conditions, OCS may produce afals ec lassifica-
tion, e.g. because the front passenger:
Rtransfers their weight by supporting them-
selve sonav ehiclea rmrest
Rsits in such awaythat their weight is raised
from the seatc ushion
If it is absolutely necessary to instal lachild
restraint syste monthe front-passenger seat, be
sure to observe the correct positioning of the
child restraint system. Never place objects
under or behind the child restraint system, e.g.
cushions. The entire bas eofthe child restraint
syste mmust alway srest on the seatc ushion of
the front-passenger seat. The backres tofthe
forward-facing child restraint syste mmust lie as
flat as possible against the backres tofthe front-
passenger seat.
The child restraint syste mmust not touch the
roof or be subjected to aloadbyt he head
restraint. Adjust the angl eofthe seatb ackrest
and the headr estraint position accordingly.
Only then can OCS be guaranteed to function
correctly .Always observe the child restraint sys-
tem manufacturer's installation instructions.
