Driving and operating183Fault
In the event of a fault, a message is
displayed in the Colour Info Display, accompanied by an acoustic signal.
In the event of a fault in the power
steering, H illuminates and a
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.
Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles in the vicinity
(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification and correct distance indication in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not
detect objects outside the
detection range.
Note
It is possible that the sensor detects a non-existing object caused by
echo disturbance from external
acoustic noise or mechanical
misalignments (sporadic false
warnings may occur).
Make sure that the front number
plate is properly mounted (not bent
and no gaps to the bumper on the left
or right side) and the sensors are
firmly in place.
Advanced parking assist system
may not respond to changes in the
available parking space after
initiating a parking manoeuvre. The
system may recognize an entry, a
gateway, a courtyard or even a crossing as a parking slot. After
selecting reverse gear the system
will start a parking manoeuvre. Take care regarding the availability of the
suggested parking slot.
Surface irregularities, e.g. on construction zones, are not detected
by the system. The driver accepts
responsibility.
Side blind spot alert The Side blind spot alert system
detects and reports objects on either
side of the vehicle, within a specified
"blind spot" zone. The system
displays a visual alert in each exterior

the system checked.
System limitations
The system performance may not
operate properly when:
● Vehicle speed is below 60 km/h.
● Windscreen is not clean or affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers
● Driving on winding or hilly roads.
● During nighttime driving.
● Adverse environmental conditions like heavy rain, snow,
direct sunlight or shadows.
● The sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, windscreen damage or
affected by foreign items, e.g.
stickers.
● The sun is shining directly into the camera lens.
● Close vehicles ahead.● Driving on banked roads.
● Driving on road edges.
● Driving on roads with poor lane markings.
● Sudden lighting changes.
The system can not operate when no
lane marking is detected.
Lane keep assist Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. The front camera
observes the lane markings between
which the vehicle is driving. If the
vehicle approaches a lane marking,
the steering wheel is gently turned to
position the vehicle back into the lane. Turn steering wheel in same
direction, if system steers not
sufficient. Turn steering wheel gently
into opposite direction, if lane change
is intended.
When crossing a lane marking
significantly, lane keep assist starts a
visual and acoustic warning.Unintended lane departure is
assumed
● without using turn signal
● without braking
● without acceleration
● without active steering.
Note
The system is switched off during
detection of ambiguous lane
markings, e.g. in construction areas.
Note
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow,
too wide or too curved.
Activation
Page 194 of 265
192Driving and operatingAfter ignition is switched on, lane
keep assist is activated. If the system is activated, the LED in the button Ó
is not illuminated . To activate the
system when the system is
deactivated, press Ó.
When the control indicator a in the
instrument cluster illuminates green,
the system is ready to assist.
The system is operational at vehicle
speeds between 65 km/h and
180 km/h and if lane markings are
available. The driver must hold the
wheel with both hands. The change of trajectory is not accompanied by
operation of the direction indicators.
The ESC system must be activated.
The system makes the correction to
the trajectory necessary to return the
vehicle to its initial path if it identifies
a risk of the vehicle involuntarily
crossing one of the lane markings
detected. The driver will then notice a
turning movement of the steering
wheel.The control indicator a flashes
during trajectory correction. In the
Driver Information Centre, the line of
the corrected side will be displayed in orange.
If the driver wishes to maintain the
trajectory of the vehicle, he can
prevent the correction by keeping a
firm grip on the wheel (during an
avoiding manoeuvre, for example).
The correction is interrupted if the
direction indicators are operated.
While the direction indicators are on
and for a few seconds after switching
them off, the system considers that
any change of trajectory is voluntary
and no correction is triggered during
this period.
If the system detects that the driver is not holding the wheel firmly enoughduring an automatic correction of
trajectory, it interrupts the correction.
An alert is triggered to encourage the
driver to take back control of the
vehicle.Deactivation
The system is deactivated by
pressing Ó during a few seconds; the
LED in the button illuminates. In the
Driver Information Centre, solid grey
lines are displayed.
Fault
The system performance may be affected by:
● Windscreen not clean or affected
by foreign items, e.g. stickers
● Close vehicles ahead
● Banked roads
● Winding or hilly roads
● Road edges
● Roads with poor lane markings
● Sudden lighting changes
● Adverse environmental conditions e.g. heavy rain or
snow
● Vehicle modifications, e.g. tyres.

Driving and operating193Switch off the system if the system is
disturbed by tar marks, shadows,
road cracks, temporary or
construction lane markings, or other
road imperfections.9 Warning
Always keep your attention on the
road and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane, otherwise
vehicle damage, injury or death
could occur.
Lane keep assist does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
The system may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give an alert,
even if a lane marking is detected.
The steering of the lane keep
assist may not be sufficient to
avoid a lane departure.
The system may not detect hands-
off driving due to external
influences (road condition and
surface, weather etc). The driver
has full responsibility to control the
vehicle and is always required to keep the hands on the steeringwheel while driving.
Using the system while towing a
trailer or on slippery roads could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
and a crash. Switch the system off.
Driver alert
The driver alert system monitores the driving time and the vigilance of the
driver. Monitoring the vigilance of the
driver is based on the trajectory
variations of the vehicle compared to
the lane markings.
The system includes a driving time
alert combined with driver drowsiness detection.
9 Warning
The system cannot replace the
need for vigilance on the part of
the driver. It is recommended that
you take a break as soon as you
feel tired or at least every two
hours. Do not take the wheel if you are tired.
Activation or Deactivation
The system can be activated or
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 106
The state of the system stays in
memory when the ignition is switched
off.
Driving time alert The driver gets notified by a pop-upreminder symbol € in the Driver
Information Centre simultaneously with a acoustic alert if the driver has
not taken a break after two hours of
driving at a speed above 65 km/h. The
alert is repeated hourly until the
vehicle is stopped, no matter how
vehicle speed evolves.
The counting of driving time alert is
reset when the ignition has been
switched off for a few minutes.
Driver drowsiness detection The system monitors the driver's level
of vigilance. A camera at the top of the
windscreen detects variations in
trajectory compared to the lane

198Driving and operatingGeneral information
The official fuel consumption and
specific CO 2 emission figures quoted
relate to the EU base model with
standard equipment.
Fuel consumption data and CO 2
emission data are determined
according to regulation R (EC) No.
715/2007 (in the version respectively
applicable), taking into consideration
the vehicle weight in running order, as
specified by the regulation.
The figures are provided only for the
purpose of comparison between
different vehicle variants and must not be taken as a guarantee for the
actual fuel consumption of a
particular vehicle. Additional
equipment may result in higher
results than the stated consumption
and CO 2 figures. Furthermore, fuel
consumption is dependent on
personal driving style as well as road
and traffic conditions.Trailer hitch
General information
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle.
Vehicles with natural gas engines
require special towing equipment.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage. E.g. in case of
4x 5 Watt bulbs, the function only
detects lamp outage when only a
single 5 Watt lamp remains or none
remain.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye. If this is the case use the coupling ball
bar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle.Driving characteristics and
towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricatethe coupling ball. However, do not do
so if a stabiliser, which acts on the
coupling ball, is being used to reduce snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a
speed of 80 km/h. A maximum speed
of 100 km/h is only appropriate if an
oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle’s curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more
slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.
Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 250.

202Driving and operatingDismounting the coupling ball bar
Open the protective flap and turn the
key to position c to unlock the
coupling ball bar.
Pull out rotary handle and turn
clockwise as far as it will go. Pull out coupling ball bar downwards.
Insert sealing plug in opening. Fold away socket.
Trailer stability assist
If the system detects snaking
movements, engine power is reduced
and the vehicle/trailer combination is
selectively braked until the snaking ceases. While system is working keep steering wheel as still as possible.
Trailer stability assist (TSA) is a
function of the Electronic Stability
Control 3 155.
