Start-Stop-System
Descript ion
A ppl ies to vehicles: with Sta rt-Stop-System
The Start-Stop -System can help increase fuel
economy and reduce CO
2 emissions.
In the Start-Stop-mode, the eng ine shuts off
automatically when the vehicle is stopped,
such as at a traffic light. The ignition remains
sw itched on during this stop phase. The en­
gine will be automatically restarted when
needed.
The last Start-Stop-System setting (o n/off us­
ing the button
lr.;, .. I) will be restored when the
ignition is turned on. The LED in the
1r.;, .. 1 but­
ton turns on when the Start-Stop-System is
switched off manually.
Basic requirements for the Start-Stop
mode
- The driver's door is closed .
- The driver's seat belt is latched.
- The hood is closed.
- The vehicle must have been driven faster
than 2.5 mph (4 km/h) since the last stop .
- A tra iler is not hitched to the veh icle .
A WARNING
- Never turn off the engine before the ve­
hicle has come to a complete stop. The
full function of the brake booster and the
power steering is not guaranteed. You
On the road 91
must use more force to turn or brake if
necessary. Because you cannot steer and
brake as you usually would, this could
lead to crashes and ser ious injuries.
- To reduce the risk of injuries, make sure
that the Start-Stop-System is turned off
when working in the engine compart­
ment

Speed warning system
Overview
The speed warning system helps you to keep
your driving speed below a set speed limit.
T he speed warning system warns if the driver
exceeds a previous ly stored maximum speed.
A warning tone will sound as soon as the vehi­
cle speed exceeds the set speed by about
3 mph (3 km/h) . At the same time, a warning
symbol appears in the display . The symbol 's
appearance might be different in some mod ­
els .
The speed warning system has
two warning
thresholds
tha t function independen tly of
each other and that have somewhat different
purposes :
Speed warning 1
You can use speed warning 1 to set the m axi­

your speed and the distance between
your vehicle and other vehicles.
- For reasons of safety, cruise control
should not be used in the city, in stop­
and-go traffic, on twisting roads and
when road conditions are poor (such as
ice, fog, gravel, heavy rain and hydro ­
plan ing) - you could have an accident.
- Switch the cruise control off temporarily
when dr iv ing in turning lanes, h ighway
exits or in construction zones .
- Please note that unconsciously "resting" your foot on the accelerator pedal causes cru ise contro l not to brake. This is due to
the control system be ing overridden by
the driver's acceleration.
- Never use the cruise control when driving off-road or on unpaved roads. The c ruise
con tro l is intended for use only when the
vehicle is being operated on paved roads,
and is not suitable for use off-road or on
unpaved roads.
- If a brake system malfunction such as overheating occurs when the cruise con ­

.,. To turn on EV mode, press the 14'1 button.
The indicator light in the button will turn
on . The. indicator light a lso turns on in
the instrument cluster display.
The functions and operating modes described
be low are se lected automatica lly by the vehi­
cle control system, depending on the vehicle
operat ing status. This ensures that the vehicle
is always in the correct operating mode. One
exception is the enhanced electric driving
mode (EV mode), which is activated by the
driver
¢pag e 100.
Driving with the combustion engine
The vehicle is powered by the combustion en­
gine. The h igh voltage battery is charged si­
multaneously, if needed.
Full acceleration (boost)
In full acceleration, the vehicle is powered by
both the combustion engine and the electric
motor . This operating mode is called
Boost
and is on ly available for a short amount of
time because it uses so much energy. Availa ­
bility depends on the high voltage battery
charge level.
The boost operating mode is activated by
pressing the accelerator pedal all the way
down.
Electric driving
The vehicle can be driven completely electri­
ca lly depending on the high vo ltage battery
charge level and the driving resistance. The
combust ion eng ine turns off at that t ime.
The combustion engine starts when accelerat ­
ing or when the high voltage battery charge
level drops be low a certain threshold. The ve­
hicle resumes e lectric driving once the accel­
eration and the high voltage battery charge
level permit.
Enhanced electric driving mode (EV
mode)
Pressing the l~ I button ¢ fig. 108 can extend
the usual limits on electric driving so that you
can always drive in electric mode, if the condi­
t ion of the e lectr ica l system permits . The op­
erating mode is then set to maximum electric
drive @,@ ¢
page 98, fig. 107. It can be
driven complete ly elec trically for up to 1.8
miles (3 km) at a constant 37 mph (60 km/h) .
T he following conditions must be met to act i­
vate the enhanced e lectr ic drive:
- The high voltage battery must be suffic ient­
ly charged.
- The temperature of the 12 volt batter ies
and the hig h voltage battery must be suffi­
cient.
- The vehicle speed must not be higher than
62 mph (100 km/h).
- The transmission must not be in tiptronic
mode.

-Offroad mode and hill descent assist must
not be turned on
c::> page 198.
The combust ion eng ine tu rns on and inter­
rupts
the enhanced electric d rive mode when
the vehicle is accelerated. The gray indicator
light
l:!I also turns on in the disp lay. The en­
hanced electric drive mode resumes automati ­
cally once acceleration stops.
The enhanced e lectric drive mode is
deactivat­
ed
if at least one of the following conditions is
met :
- Th e ign ition is turned off.
- Th e
1.:1"1 button is pressed again.
- The high voltage battery charge level is low .
- The veh icle speed is higher than approxi -
mately 62 mph (100 km/h).
- The
S selector lever position or tiptronic
mode is selected .
- Offroad mode or hill descent assist is
switched on .
T he
ld" I button must be pressed to reactivate
it .
Start-Stop function
The combustion engine is operated on ly as
needed. Generally, the combustion engine
turns off when the vehicle is stationary and
the high voltage battery powers the electrical
vehicle systems.
The purpose of automatica lly shutting the
combustion engine off in hybrid drive mode is
to save fuel. All of the important veh icle sys­
tems, such as steering, brakes and the A/C
system, cont inue to remain active. In some
cases, systems may require the combustion
engine to cont inue running when the vehicle
is stationary. When dr iv ing in congested traf­
fic for long per iods of time, the combustion
engine w ill cycle on when the vehicle is sta­
tionary to keep the high voltage battery
charged.
Gliding
I f the gas pedal is not pressed and the D posi­
tion is selected, the combustion engine re-
Hybrid 101
mains turned off up to speeds of approxi ­
mately 99 mph ( 160 km/h) . Driving conserva­
tive ly like this can reduce fuel consumption .
Energy recovery (recuperation)
When braking, the elect ric motor will act as a
generator creating e lectric energy that is then
stored in the high voltage battery. This also
occurs when the ve hicle is coasting or driving
downhi ll. The combustion engine is automati­
cally turned off in this case.
The vehicle is braked with the electric motor
by applying ear ly and even pressure to the
brakes and using short pedal movements
¢ page 98, fig. 107 @. By doing this, a large
amount of the kinetic energy is recovered and may be stored as electric energy in the high
voltage battery. During heavy braking, the
convent ional brakes are also act ivated
c::> page 98, fig. 107 @.
The energy recovery is shown in the MMI dis­
play
c::> page 104 .
Automatic start of the combustion engine
Various operating conditions cause the com­
bust ion engine to start automat ically :
- The high voltage battery charge leve l is low.
- The temperature of the comb ustion engine
is low.
- The temperature of the catalyt ic converter is
low .
- The power output needed for the A/C sys-
t em is high.
- The vehicle speed is hig h.
- The vehicle acceleration is high.
- The inclin e is steep.
- High charge level for the high voltage bat-
tery when coasting. In th is case, the h igh
voltage battery cannot absorb any mo re en­
ergy and so the electric motor cannot slow
down the veh icle. The combustion engine
tu rns on (engine brake). In this situation the
h igh voltage battery will show a Ma x charge.

Additional information about the vehicle tool kit may be found under
c::> page 268 and
about the tire repa ir set under
c::> page 2 71 .
(D Tips
The right storage compartment in the lug­
gage compartment and its contents must
always be kept in the vehicle. The veh icle
m ust not be operated w ithout the tire re­
pa ir set.
Charging the batteries
Applies to vehicles: with hybrid drive
The vehicle is equipped with two 12 volt bat ­
ter ies and a h igh voltage battery.
If the 12 volt batter ies are dead, they may be
charged with a charger or the vehicle may be
jump started with assistance from another ve­
hicle in the same way as a conventional vehi­
cle .
The same applies to the high voltage battery
if it is d ischarged . However, in this case, the
charg ing process is accompanied w ith mes­
sages in the inst rument cluste r display. The
i gnit ion m ust be switched on and all unneces­
sary electric components m ust be turned off.
The connections in the engine compartment
are used for both charging and jump starting
c::> page 244 or c::> page 283.
Vehicle not ready to start. See owner's
manual
This message appears if the high voltage bat­
tery charge level is too low. The vehicle can no
l onge r be started with its own power. The
high voltage battery must be charged with a
charger or the vehicle must be jump started
with the aid of another vehicle.
Afte r the connecting the cha rger or jumper ca­
b les, the ignition must be turned off for ap­
proximately two minutes and then turned on
again. After no more than one m inute, one of
the following indicator lights turns on in the instrument cluster d isp lay. Hybrid 105
II Charging battery. Please wait ...
If
the indicator light turns on and this mes­
sage appears, the high voltage battery is

with assistance from another vehicle.
If the 12 vo lt batteries are dead, the -
indicator light turns on. The charging proce­
dure takes longer in this case because the 12
vo lt batteries are charged first. The procedure
goes faster with the ignition switched off.
Vehicle ready to start.
This message appears if the charging proce­
dure was successfu l. The vehicle may be start­
ed again.
Battery could not be charged enough to
start vehicle.
This message appears if the charging proce­
dure was not successful or it was interrupted.
This may happen if the charger or the battery
in the veh icle that is assist ing is too weak.
If
the vehicle cannot be started, see an author­
ized repa ir facility for assistance .
(D Tips
- The charger should deliver a current of at
least
30 A. Otherwise charging the high
voltage battery will take considerably longer. A current between
50 A and 70 A
is ideal.
- The ve hicle that is assist ing should be
somewhat within the same vehicle class
when jump starting a vehicle. A smaller
vehicle's battery may be drained.
- After approximately
30 minutes, the
c harging procedure ends because the ig­
nition is automatically turned off.
If you
would like to continue to charge the bat­
tery, turn the ignition on again.
