When stop ping at a traffic signal or stopping in
c ity t raffic on vehicles with an a utomat ic t rans ­
mission, the parking brake can be app lied. The
vehicle does not have to be he ld with the foot­
brake. The pa rking brake eliminates the tendency
to c reep with a d rive ra nge engaged. As soon as
yo u drive off as usua l, the park ing b rake is re­
l eased a utomat ica lly and the vehi cle starts to
m ove .
Starting on slopes
When sta rting on inclines, the starting assist pre ­
ven ts the vehicle from unintentionally ro lling
bac k. The braking force of the parking b rake is
n ot released until suff icient dr iving force has
been built up at the wheels.

Starting off with a trailer
To prevent rolling back unin tentionally on an in­
cline, do the f ollowing:
.. Keep the sw itch @¢ page 77, fig . 81 pulled
and dep ress the accelera to r. T he pa rking brake

tractor is locked when installing a child safe­
ty seat . An unlocked safety belt retractor
cannot hold the child safety seat in place
during normal driving or in a crash.
- Always buckle the child safety seat firmly in
place even if a child is not sitting in it. A
loose child safety seat can fly around during
a sudden stop or in a collision.
- If the backrest is not securely latched, the
child and the child restraint will be thrown
forward together with the backrest and will
strike parts of the vehicle interior. The child
can be seriously injured or killed.
- Never install rearward-facing child safety seats or infant carriers on the front passen­
ger seat . A child will be seriously injured and
can be killed when the passenger airbag in­
flates.
- The inflating airbag will hit the child safety seat or infant carrier with great force and
will smash the child safety seat and child

Child safety
A WARNING
Always take special precautions if you must
install a forward or rearward-facing child re­
straint on the front passenger's seat in excep­
tional situations:
- Whenever a forward or rearward -facing
child restraint is installed on the front pas­
senger seat, the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF
light must come on and stay on whenever
the ignition is switched on.
- If the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light does
not come on and stay on, perform the
checks described
r=;, page 139, Monitoring
the Advanced Airbag System.
- Take the child restraint off the front passen­
ger seat and install it properly at one of the
rear seat positions if the
PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF
light does not stay on whenever
the ignition is switched on.
- Improper installation of child restraints can
reduce their effectiveness or even prevent
them from providing any protection.
- An improperly installed child restraint can
interfere with the airbag as it deploys and
seriously injure or even kill the child .
- Always carefully follow the manufacturer's
instructions provided with the child safety
seat or carrier.
- Never place additional items on the seat
that can increase the total weight registered
by the weight-sensing mat and can cause in­
jury in a crash .
A WARNING
-Forward-facing child restraints:
- Always make sure the forward-facing seat
has been designed and certified by its man ­
ufacturer for use on a front seat with a pas­
senger front and side airbag.
- Never put the forward-facing child restraint up, against or very near the instrument pan­
el.

To avo id f uel spi lling or evaporating from the fue l
tank always close fuel cap properly and com ­
p letely.
A WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fue l can
cause fire, exp losion and severe burns.
-
- Fuel is highly flammable and can cause se­
vere burns and other injuries.
- Failure to shut the engine off whi le refuel­
ing and/or to insert the pump nozzle fu lly
into the fuel filler neck could cause fue l to
spray out of f iller neck or to overflow. Fuel
spray and overflow ing fuel can cause a fire.
- Never use a cellular telephone wh ile refuel­
ing. The electromagnetic radiation can
cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and
cause a fire.
- Never get back into your vehicle while refu­
eling. If in exceptional c ircumstances you
must get back in your vehicle while refuel­
ing, make certain that you close the door
and touch meta l to discharge static e lectric­
ity before touching the filler nozzle again.
Fu el and R efu elin g
Static electricity can cause sparks that can
ignite fuel vapors released during refue ling.
- Never smoke or have an open f lame any­
where in or near your vehicle when refueling or filling a portable fuel conta iner .
- For your safety, we strongly recommend
that you do not travel with a portable f uel
container in your veh icle. The container, full
or empty may leak and cou ld cause a fire,
especially in a crash .
- If, under exceptional c ircumstances, you
must transport a portab le fuel container,
please observe the following:
- Never fill a portable fuel container while it
is anywhere in or on the vehicle (for exam­
ple, in the l uggage compartment, or on
the trunk). Static e lectric ity can build up
while filling and can ignite fuel vapors
caus ing a fire .
-Always place a portab le fue l conta iner on
the ground before fill ing .
- Always keep the filler nozzle completely
inside the portable container before and
during f il li ng.
- If filling a portab le container made of
metal, the f iller nozzle must always be in
contact with the container. This will help prevent static electricity from d ischarging
and cause a fi re.
- Never spill fuel inside the vehicle or lug­
gage compartment. Fuel vapors are highly
flammable.
- Always observe local and state/provincial
laws regarding the use, storage and trans­
po rtation of fue l conta iners.
- Make certain the fuel conta iner meets in­
dustry standards (ANSI/ AS TM F852 -86).
(D Note
If any fuel has sp illed onto the car, it should
be removed immediately to prevent damage
to the pa int.
@) For the sake of the environment
As soon as the correct ly operated nozzle
switches off automat ically for the first time,

Fuel and Refueling
the tank is full. Do not try to add more fuel
because fuel may spill out. In addition, the
expansion space in the fuel tank will be filled -
causing the fuel to overflow when it becomes
warm and pollute the environment.
(D Tips
- Running your engine while refuelling may
cause vapors to escape or even cause fuel to
spill out of the tank. This would then shut
off the fuel nozzle before the tank is full.
- Do not refuel your vehicle with the ignition
turned on. The fuel gauge may otherwise
not indicate the correct fuel level after refu­
elling.
- The fuel filler flap of your vehicle is not
locked when you lock the vehicle from the
inside .
Unlocking the fuel filler flap by hand
You can open the fuel filler flap by hand if the
power locking system should fail.
