Air intake
The air intake in front of the
windscreen in the engine
compartment must be kept clear to
allow air intake. Remove any leaves,
dirt or snow.
Air conditioning regular
operation
In order to ensure continuously
efficient performance, cooling must
be operated for a few minutes once a
month, irrespective of the weather
and time of year. Operation with
cooling is not possible when the
outside temperature is too low.
Service For optimal cooling performance, it is recommended to annually check the
climate control system, starting
three years after initial vehicle
registration, including:
● functionality and pressure test
● heating functionality
● leakage check
● check of drive belts
● cleaning of condenser and evaporator drainage
● performance check

102Driving and operatingStarting the vehicle at low
temperatures
Starting the engine without additional
heaters is possible down to -25 °С for diesel engines and -30 °C for petrol
engines. Required is an engine oil
with the correct viscosity, the correct
fuel, performed services and a
sufficiently charged vehicle battery.
With temperatures below -30 °C the
automatic transmission requires a
warming phase of approx. 5 minutes.
The selector lever must be in position P .
Turbo engine warm-up Upon start-up, engine available
torque may be limited for a short time,
especially when the engine
temperature is cold. The limitation is
to allow the lubrication system to fully protect the engine.
Overrun cut-off
The fuel supply is automatically cut off
during overrun, i.e. when the vehicle
is driven with a gear engaged but accelerator pedal is released.Depending on driving conditions, the
overrun cut-off may be deactivated.
Stop-start system
The stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emissions. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as the vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, e.g. at a traffic light or in a
traffic jam.
Activation
The stop-start system is available as soon as the engine is started, the
vehicle starts-off and the conditions
as stated below in this section are
fulfilled.
The system is ready to operate when
the LED in the button D is not
illuminated. To activate the system
when the system is deactivated,
press D.
If the stop-start system is temporarily not available and the button D is
pressed, the LED in the button
flashes.
Deactivation
Deactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing D. The
deactivation is indicated when the
LED in the button illuminates.

Driving and operating133Smart brake assist
Smart brake assist provides a boost
to braking when the brake pedal is quickly applied. The braking is based on the speed of approach and
distance to a vehicle ahead.
Minor brake pedal pulsations or pedal movement during this time is normal
and the brake pedal should continue to be applied as needed. Intelligent
brake assist will automatically
disengage only when the brake pedal is released.9 Warning
Smart brake assist may increase
vehicle braking in situations when
it may not be necessary. You
could block the flow of traffic. If this occurs, take your foot off the brakepedal and then apply the brakes
as needed.
Forward collision alert 3 134.
Front pedestrian protection 3 136.
System limitations
In some cases, the active emergencybraking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that
seem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to various
types of objects, i.e., traffic signs or
vehicles in another lane. This is
normal operation, the vehicle does
not need service. Firmly apply the
accelerator pedal to override the
automatic braking if the situation and
the surroundings permit.
In the following cases, active
emergency braking performance
might be limited:
● driving on winding or hilly roads
● detecting vehicles with a trailer, tractors, muddy vehicles, etc.
● detecting a vehicle when weather
limits visibility, such as in fog,
rain, or snow
● driving during nighttime● the sensor in the windscreen or the radar unit behind the front
bumper are blocked by snow, ice,
slush, mud, dirt etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
the bumper is damaged or
affected by foreign objects, e.g.
license plate support
Complete attention is always required
while driving, and you should be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes and / or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
We recommend to deactivate the
system in the vehicle personalisation
in the following cases:
● when towing a trailer or caravan
● when carrying long objects on roof bars or a roof rack
● when the vehicle is being towed with the engine running
● when the vehicle is fitted with snow chains
● when a spare wheel is fitted that is smaller than the other wheels
Page 136 of 227
134Driving and operating● before using an automatic carwash with the engine running
● before placing the vehicle on a rolling road in a workshop
● if the windscreen has been damaged close to the camera
● if the front bumper has been damaged
● if the brake lights are not working
Fault
In case the system requires a service, a message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
If the system does not work properly,
vehicle messages are displayed in
the Driver Information Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 75.
Forward collision alert The forward collision alert may help toavoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes.
The forward collision alert uses the
front camera in the windscreen and
depending on the vehicle
configuration a radar unit located
behind the front bumper to detect a
vehicle directly ahead, in the path.
If a vehicle directly ahead is
approached too quickly, a warning
chime sounds and a message is
displayed in the Driver Information Centre.
9 Warning
Forward collision alert is just a
warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When
approaching a vehicle ahead too
rapidly, it may not provide you
enough time to avoid a collision.
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes.
9 Warning
The usage of a license plate
support may have an impact on
the proper operation of the radar
unit and may limit sensor
perfomance. Vehicles driving
ahead, pedestrians or other

Service information In order to ensure economical and
safe vehicle operation and to
maintain the value of your vehicle, it
is of vital importance that all
maintenance work is carried out at the proper intervals as specified.
The detailed, up-to-date service
schedule for your vehicle is available
at the workshop.
Severe operating conditions exist if one or more of the following
circumstances occur frequently: Cold
starting, stop and go operation, e.g.
for taxis and police vehicles, trailer
operation, mountain driving, driving
on poor and sandy road surfaces,
increased air pollution, presence of
airborne sand and high dust content,
driving at high altitude and large
variations of temperature.
Under these severe operating
conditions, certain service work may
be required more frequently than the
regular service interval indicated inthe service display. Contact a
workshop for customised service
schedules.
