Before restarting or to switch off the
engine, turn the key back to position
0 .
During an Autostop, the engine can
be started by depressing the clutch
pedal.
Key lock release
Some vehicles with an automatic
transmission are equipped with an electronic key lock release system.
The key lock release is designed to
prevent ignition key removal unless
the selector lever is in P.
Starting 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 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 .Automatic Starter Control
This function controls the engine
starting procedure. The driver does
not need to hold the key in position 3.
Once applied, the system will go on starting automatically until the engine
is running. Because of the checking
procedure, the engine starts running
after a short delay.
Possible reasons for a non-starting
engine:
■ clutch pedal not operated (manual transmission)
■ brake pedal not operated or selector lever not in P or N
(automatic transmission)
■ timeout occurred
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 is released.
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. It starts the engine
automatically as soon as the clutch is
depressed. A battery sensor ensures
that an Autostop is only performed if
the battery is sufficiently charged for
a restart.
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.

Alerting the driver
When approaching another vehicle
too rapidly, the collision alert warning page will be indicated in the DIC.
Simultaneously a warning chime
sounds. Depress the brake pedal, if it
is required by the situation.
Deactivation
The system can be deactivated.
Press V repeatedly until the following
message appears in the DIC.
General information
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.
System limitations
The system is designed to warn only for vehicles, but may react also to
other metallic objects.
In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
■ on winding roads
■ when weather limits visibility, e.g. fog, rain, or snow
■ when the sensor is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt, or
windscreen damage

142Driving and operatingParking assist
The parking assist makes parking
easier by measuring the distance between the vehicle and obstacles,
and giving acoustic signals. It is the
driver, however, who bears full
responsibility for the parking
manoeuvre.
The system consists of four ultrasonic parking sensors in the rear bumper. If
the vehicle is equipped with a front
parking assist the system consists of
four additional ultrasonic parking
sensors in the front bumper.
Control indicator r 3 86.
Activation
When reverse gear is engaged, the
system is activated automatically.
The front parking assist can also be activated at a low speed by pressing
r .
An illuminated LED in the parking
assist button indicates that the
system is ready to operate.
An obstacle is indicated by a buzzing
sound. The interval between the sounds becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm, the buzzing is continuous.
If r is pressed once within an
ignition cycle, the front parking assist
is reactivated if the vehicle speed
goes below a certain value and if the
vehicle speed has not exceeded
16 mph beforehand.
Deactivation
Deactivate the system by pressing
r .
The LED in the button will go out and
Park Assist Off will be displayed in the
Driver Information Centre (DIC).
The system is deactivated
automatically at a certain speed.
Fault
In the event of a fault in the system,
r illuminates or a vehicle message
is displayed in the DIC.
Additionally, r illuminates or a
vehicle message is displayed in the
DIC if a malfunction of the system due
to temporary conditions, e.g. snow
covered sensors is detected.

Important hints for using the
parking assist systems9 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 has to be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper. If
such obstacles leave the detection area of the sensors during
approach of the vehicle, a
continuous warning tone will
sound.
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.
Notice
The parking assist system
automatically detects factory-fitted
towing equipment. It is deactivated
when the connector is plugged in.
The sensor may detect a non-
existent object (echo disturbance)
caused by external acoustic or
mechanical disturbances.
Notice
The parking assist is deactivated
when the rear carrier system is
extended.
Rear view camera The rear view camera assists the
driver when reversing by displaying a view of the area behind the vehicle.
The view of the camera is displayed
in the Colour-Info-Display.9 Warning
The rear view camera does not
replace driver vision. Note that
objects that are outside the
camera's field of view and the
Page 146 of 229
144Driving and operatingadvanced parking assist sensors,
e.g. below the bumper or
underneath the vehicle, are not
displayed.
Do not reverse the vehicle by only looking at the Info-Display and
check the surrounding area
behind and around the vehicle
before reversing.
Activation
Rear view camera is automatically
activated when reverse gear is
engaged.
Functionality
The camera is mounted in the tailgate handle and has a viewing angle of
130°.
Due to the high position of the camera
the rear bumper can be seen on the
display as a guide to position.
The area displayed by the camera is
limited. The distance of the image that appears on the display differs from
the actual distance.
Guiding lines
Dynamic guiding lines are horizontal
lines in 1 metre intervals projected on
the picture to define the distance to
shown objects.
Trajectory lane of the vehicle is
shown in accordance with the
steering angle.
The function can be deactivated in the
menu Settings in the Info-Display.
Vehicle personalisation 3 100.
Warning symbols
Warning symbols are indicated as
triangles 9 on the picture which show
obstacles detected by the rear
sensors of the advanced parking
assist.

All wheels must be equipped with
pressure sensors and the tyres must
have the prescribed pressure.
Notice
In countries where the tyre pressure
monitoring system is legally
required, the use of wheels without
pressure sensors will invalidate the
vehicle type approval.
The current tyre pressures can be
shown in the Vehicle Information
Menu in the Driver Information Centre
(DIC).
The menu can be selected by the
buttons on the turn signal lever.Press MENU to select the Vehicle
Information Menu X .
Turn the adjuster wheel to select the
tyre pressure monitoring system.
System status and pressure warnings
are displayed by a message with the
corresponding tyre flashing in the
DIC.
A detected low tyre pressure
condition is indicated by the control
indicator w 3 87.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 215.
If w flashes for 60-90 seconds and
then illuminates continuously, there is a fault in the system. Consult a
workshop.
After inflating, driving may be
required to update the tyre pressure
values in the DIC. During this time w
may illuminate.
Page 186 of 229
184Vehicle care
If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after some driving,
this could be an indicator for
approaching a low tyre pressure
condition. Check tyre pressure.
Vehicle messages 3 95.
If the tyre pressure shall be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition.
Only mount wheels with pressure
sensors, otherwise the tyre pressure
will not be displayed and w
illuminates continuously.
A temporary spare wheel is not
equipped with pressure sensors. The
tyre pressure monitoring system is
not operational for these wheels.
Control indicator w illuminates. For
the further three wheels the system remains operational.
The use of commercially available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
External high-power radio equipment
could disrupt the tyre pressure
monitoring system.Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre
pressure monitoring system sensors
must be dismounted and serviced.
For the screwed sensor, replace
valve core and sealing ring. For
clipped sensor, replace complete
valve stem.

TPMS Sensor Matching
Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code must be matched to a new tyre/
wheel position after rotating the tyres
or exchanging the complete wheel set and if one or more TPMS sensors
were replaced. The TPMS sensor matching process should also be
performed after replacing a spare tyre
with a road tyre containing the TPMS
sensor.
The malfunction light and the warning
message or code should go off at the
next ignition cycle. The sensors are
matched to the tyre/wheel positions,
using a TPMS relearn tool, in the
following order: left side front tyre,
right side front tyre, right side rear
tyre, and left side rear.
