become a hazard for vehicle occupants in
the event of sudden braking or a crash.
- Always remove objects from the instruÂ
ment panel. Any items not stored could
slide around inside the vehicle while drivÂ
ing or when accelerating or when applyÂ
ing the brakes or when driving around a
corner.
- When you are driving make sure that
anything you may have placed in the cenÂ
ter console or other storage locations cannot fall out into the footwells. In case
of sudden braking you would not be able
to brake or accelerate.
- Any articles of clothing that you have
hung up must not interfere with the drivÂ
er's view. The coat hooks are designed
only for lightweight clothing. Never hang
any clothing with hard, pointed or heavy
objects in the pockets on the coat hooks.
During sudden braking or in an accident -

not impair the driver's vision.
- The coat hooks must only be used for lightweight clothing . Do not leave any
heavy or sharp edged objects in the pockÂ
ets which may interfere with the side curÂ
tain airbag deployment and can cause
personal injury in a crash.
- Do not use coat hangers for hanging
clothing on the coat hooks as this can inÂ
terfere with proper deployment of the
side curtain airbags in an accident.
- Do not hang heavy objects on the coat
hooks, as they could cause personal inÂ
jury in a sudden stop.

Cooler
Introduction
Applies to vehicles: wi th coo ler
Please clean the cooler before using it for the
first time ¢
table on page 216.
You can only switch on the cooler if
- the temperature in the luggage compartÂ
ment is below 131 °F (55 °C). The cooler
switches off automatically if the temperaÂ
ture in the luggage compartment exceeds
131 °F (55 °C). Once the temperature falls
below 131 °F (55 °C) again, the cooler
switches on again automatically.
- the battery is adequately charged. The coolÂ
er switches off automatically if the vehicle
battery voltage falls below a minimum levÂ
el. This prevents the battery from discharg ing. The cooler switches back on again autoÂ
matically when the battery voltage increases
again (e .g. after starting the engine).
The cooler cools to 42.8 °F
(+ 6 °C) and the
freezer cools to 21.2 °F (-6 °C) in optimum
cooling conditions. The cooling performance
is affected by the temperature in the luggage
compartment . The temperature inside the
cooler will be higher if the luggage compart-
ment is hot. .,.

11-Keep the switch© pulled and depress the
accelerator. The parking brake stays applied
and prevents the vehicle from rolling backÂ
ward .
11-You can release the switch<®> once you are
su re that you a re develop ing enough forÂ
ward momentum at the wheels as you deÂ
press the accelerator.
D epending on the weight of the r ig (vehicle
and tra ile r) and the severi ty of the incl ine, you
may roll backwards as you start. Yo u can preÂ
vent rolling backwards by holding the parking brake switch<®) p ulled out and acce lerating -
just as you would when starting on a hill with
a conventional hand brake.

Transmission
tiptronic (8-speed
transmission)
Introduction
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronically controlled 8-speed automatic transmission .
Upshifting and downshifting occurs automatiÂ
cally and is controlled electronically. The drivÂ
ing style continuously influences the selection
of the driving program .
When a
moderate driving style is used, the
transmission selects the most economical
driving mode. It will then change up early and
delay the downsh ifts to give better fuel econÂ
omy .
The transmission switches to a sporty mode
after a kick-down or when the driver uses a
sporty driving style characterized by quick acÂ
celerator pedal movements, heavy acceleraÂ
tion, frequent changes in speed and traveling at the maximum speed.
If desired, the driver can also select the gears
manually (ti ptronic mode) ¢ page 117 .
