Securing child seatsWays to secure a child seat
A child seat can be secured differently on the rear seat and on
the front passenger seat.You can secure a child seat to the rear seat or front passenger seat in the
following ways:•Child seats in groups 0 to 3 can be secured with a seat belt.•Seats for children aged 0, 0+ and 1 with the “ISOFIX” system can be
secured without fastening seat belts, using the “ISOFIX” and/or Top Tether
securing rings ⇒page 52.
U: Suitable for universal approved restraining systems for use in this age category (universal retention systems are those fitted using the adult
seat belt).
*: Move the front passenger seat as far back as possible, as high as possible and always deactivate the airbag.
L: Suitable for retention systems using the “ISOFIX” anchors.
WARNING
•When travelling, children must be secured in the vehicle with a
restraint system suitable for age, weight and size.•Never install a child seat facing backwards on the front passenger seat
unless the front passenger airbag has been disabled. This could cause fatal
injuries to the child! However, if, in exceptional cases, it is necessary to
transport a child in the front passenger seat, the front passenger airbag
⇒ page 44, “Deactivating airbags” must always be disabled and the seat
adjusted to its highest position, where possible.•Read and always observe information and warnings concerning the use
of child seats ⇒ in “Safety notes on using child seats” on page 46.

WARNING
The retainers employed for this child safety seat are specially designed for
the “ISOFIX” system. Never secure other child seats, seat belts or other
items into the retainers. If you do, you increase the risk of sustaining
severe or fatal injuries.To p Te t h e r r e t a i n e r s t r a p s
Some child restraint seats have a third Top Tether anchoring
point, apart from both “ISOFIX” anchoring points, which
allow better child retention.The Top Tether system has an upper strap for attachment to the vehicle’s
upper anchoring point, which is found on the rear luggage compartment
cover. The retainer strap is used to reduce forwards movements of the safety seat in
a crash, helping reduce the risk of injuries to the head from hitting the inside
of the vehicle.
It is foreseen that an EU Directive will introduce requirements related to the
retention of child restraint systems by means of ISOFIX and Top Tether anchor-
ages (probably compulsory for new types from 2010), which will entail
improved retention of the child restraint seat and less head movement in
case of frontal collisions.
Use of retainer straps on rear-facing seats
At present there are very few rear-facing child safety seats fitted with a
r etai ner st rap. P lease ca re fully r ead a nd follow the sa fe ty seat man ufa ctu re r’ s
instructions for information on how to install the retainer strap properly.
WARNING
An undue installation of the safety seat will increase the risk of injury in the
event of a crash.•Never tie the retainer strap to a hook in the luggage compartment.•Never secure or tie luggage or other items to the lower anchorages
(ISOFIX) or the upper ones (Top Tether).

Coolant temperature gaugeThe coolant temperature gauge ⇒ fig. 38 only works when the ignition is
switched on. In order to avoid engine damage, please read the following
notes for the different temperature ranges.
Cold temperature
If the needle is still on the left of the dial, this indicates that the engine has
not yet reached operating temperature. Avoid high revs and heavy accelera-
tion and do not make the engine work hard. Normal temperature
In normal operations, the needle will settle somewhere in the centre of the
dial once the engine has reached running temperature. The temperature may
also rise when the engine is working hard, especially at high outside temper-
atures. This is no cause for concern, provided the warning lamp
v does not
light up in the instrument panel.
Warning temperature
If the symbol
 flashes in the display, this means that either the coolant
temperature is too high or the coolant level is too low ⇒page 78.
WARNING
•Before opening the bonnet and checking the coolant level, observe the
warning information ⇒page 224.•Never open the bonnet when steam or coolant is being released from it.
This could lead to burns. Wait until you can no longer see or hear escaping
steam or coolant.Caution
Accessories in front of the air inlet reduce the cooling effect of the coolant. At
high outside temperatures and high e ngine loads, there is a risk of the
engine overheating.

Activating the digital clock and the odometer
When the ignition is switched off, the odometer and the digital clock with
date display can be enabled for a few seconds by pressing the button
⇒ fig. 43 .
Starting check procedure (auto-check control)
The auto-check control ⇒page 75 checks important components and vehicle
systems. These background checks are run constantly, as long as the ignition
is switched on.
You can start the “check procedure” manually by pressing the button
with the ignition switched on. This function check can be started with the
engine either switched off or running, but not at road speeds above 5 km/h. Calling up driver messages
If a Priority 1 symbol flashes in the display
⇒page 75, or if the bulb monitor
detects a failure of one of the lights ⇒page 82, the relevant driver informa-
tion can be called up again by briefly pressing the button. For
example:
Switch off engine, check oil level
The message will disappear from the display after about 5 seconds.
Setting the speed warning
You can press the button to set speed limit warning 1 ⇒page 83,
“Setting speed limit warning 1” while the vehicle is moving. Speed limit
warning 2* ⇒ page 84, “Setting speed limit warning 2” can only be set when
the ignition is switched off .

If the warning lamp lights up continuously you should take your vehicle to a
specialised workshop as soon as possible in order to have the fault repaired.
If the warning lamp flashes drive on at reduced speed and seek professional
help in order to avoid damage to the catalytic converter.
For further information on the catalytic converter, see ⇒page 193.Airbag system
T
This warning lamp monitors the airbag and belt tension
device system.The warning lamp
T should light up for a few seconds when the ignition is
switched on.
If the warning lamp does not go out, or if it lights up, flashes or flickers when
the vehicle is moving, this indicates a malfunction in the system.
WARNING
If a malfunction should occur, have the system checked immediately by a
qualified workshop. Otherwise there is a risk that the airbag system
and/or belt tensioners may not be triggered in an accident.

The yellow warning
~ lamp remains on if the system is faulty or if
the pressure is too low in at least one tyre. In the event of a system
fault, the letters TPMS are displayed in the centre of the instrument
panel ⇒page 66, fig. 45 . If the tyre pressure drops rapidly,
message ⇒page 66, fig. 46 will be shown on the central display
of the instrument panel. If the pressure loss is more gradual,
message ⇒page 66, fig. 46 will be shown on the central display
of the instrument panel. This message does not show the tyre
affected. Should any of these warnings be displayed:
–Stop the vehicle.
– Check the tyres. Although the warning corresponds to just one tyre, you should also check the others.
– Correct the tyre pressure ⇒page 239.
For more detailed information on the tyre pressure monitoring system, please
refer to ⇒page 238.Cruise control system*

Trailer turn signals*

This turn signal lamp flashes when the turn signals are oper-
ating while towing a caravan or trailer.The turn signal lamp
 flashes when the turn signals are operated if a trailer
is correctly coupled to the vehicle.
Where a turn signal bulb does not work, either on the trailer or on the towing
vehicle, the turn signal bulb will not flash.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
J
The warning lamp monitors the ABS and the integrated elec-
tronic differential lock (EDL).The warning lamp
J lights up for a few seconds when the ignition is
switched on and while the engine is being started. The lamp goes out again
after the system has run through an automatic test sequence.
There is a fault in the ABS if:
•The warning lamp does not light up when the ignition is switched on•The warning lamp does not go out again after a few seconds•The warning lamp lights up when the vehicle is moving
The vehicle can still brake in the normal way (except that the ABS control func-
tion is out of action). Please take the vehicle to a qualified workshop as soon
as possible. For further information on the ABS, see ⇒ page 186.
If a malfunction should occur in the ABS, the ESP warning lamp will also light
up.
