for instance whether it is in your jacket pock­
et or in a briefcase.
The locking function may be affected if you grasp
the door handle while the vehicle is being locked.
Once the doors have been locked, they cannot be
opened again immediately. This will enable you
to check that the doors are properly closed.
The system will unlock either all the doors or only
one of the doors, depending on the settings you
have chosen on the infotainment system
¢page 30.
_& WARNING
On vehicles with an anti-theft alarm system*,
do not leave anyone (especially children) in
the car if it is locked from the outside and the
safelock mechanism* is activated: the doors
and windows cannot then be opened from the
inside ¢ page 31. Locked doors could delay
assistance in an emergency, potentially put­
ting lives at risk.
((I)) Note
Please note the following points if the vehicle
is left parked for long periods:
- To save electrical power, the proximity sen­
sors are switched off after a few days. You
will then need to pull the door handle once
to unlock the vehicle, and a second time to
open it.
- To prevent the battery from becoming dis­
charged and thus maintain the vehicle's
starting ability for as long as possible, the
power management system will gradually
switch off convenience functions that are
not required. In this case you may not be
able to unlock the vehicle with this conven­
ience function. Doors

juries. The window switches are only deacti­
vated when the driver's door or the front

minutes after the ignition has been switch­
ed off. The window switches are only deacti­
vated when the driver's door or the front
passenger's door is opened.

ly 10 mm.

without start/stop system*, it is worthwhile
switching off the engine at Level crossings, for in­
stance, or at traffic lights with a Long red phase.
The fuel saved after only 30 -40 seconds is great­
er than the amount of fuel needed to restart the
engine.
The engine takes a very Long time to warm up
when it is running at idling speed. Mechanical
wear and pollutant emissions are also especially
high during this initial warm-up phase. It is
therefore best to drive off immediately after
starting the engine. Avoid running the engine at
high speed.
Regular ser vicing
Regular servicing can establish a basis for good
fuel economy before you start driving. A well­
serviced engine gives you the benefit of im­
proved fuel efficiency as well as maximum relia­
bility and an enhanced resale value.
A poorly maintained engine can consume up to
ten percent more fuel than necessary.
Check the oil level when filling the tank. Oil con­
su mption depends to a great extent on the en­
gine load and engine speed. It is quite normal
that the oil consumption of a new engine only
reaches its lowest level after a certain mileage.
This means that the oil consumption can only be
properly assessed after about 5,000 km. Depend­
ing on your personal driving style, oil consump­
tion can be up to 0.5 Ltr./1,000 km.
Avoid short trips
The engine and emission control system need to
reach their proper working temperature in order
to minimise fuel consumption and emissions . Driving
A cold engine uses disproportionately more fuel.
The engine only reaches its working temperature
after about four kilometres, when fuel consump­
tion will return to a normal level.
Check tyre pressures
Always make sure the tyres are inflated to the
correct tyre pressures to save fuel. If the tyre
pressures are just 0.5 bar too Low, this can in­
crease the fuel consumption by as much as 5 %.
Due to the greater rolling resistance, under-infla­
tion also increases tyre wear and impairs han­
dling.
The tyre pressures should always be checked
when the tyres are cold.
Do not use winter tyres all through the year; they
will increase fuel consumption by up to 10 %.
Avoid carrying unnecessary loads
Every kilo of extra weight will increase the fuel
consumption, so it is worth checking the Luggage
compartment occasionally to make sure that no
unnecessary Loads are being transported.
Save electrical energy
The engine drives the alternator to generate elec­
tricity. This means that fuel consumption rises
when more power is required for electrical equip­
ment. Switch off electrical equipment when it is
not needed. Electrical equipment which uses a
Lot of electricity includes the blower (at a high
setting), the rear window heating and the seat
heating*.

WARNING
- Never run the engine in confined spaces.
The exhaust gases are toxic -risk of poison­
ing!
- Never switch off the engine until the vehicle
is stationary.
- The brake servo and the power steering sys­
tem work only when the engine is running.
You need more strength to steer and brake
the vehicle when the engine is switched off.
This would mean a greater risk of accidents
and serious injury, because you cannot steer
and brake in the normal manner.
Avoid high engine speeds, full throttle and ex­
treme load conditions until the engine has
reached its normal operating temperature;
otherwise this can damage the engine.
{:!)) Note
- When starting from cold the engine may be
a little noisy for the first few seconds until
oil pressure has built up in the hydraulic
tappets. This is quite normal and no cause
for concern.
- If you leave the vehicle with the ignition
switched on, it will be switched off auto­
matically after a while. Please note that
electrical equipment such as the exterior
lighting will also be switched off.

A WARNING
- Never switch off the engine until the vehicle
is stationary . Otherwise you may not have
the full benefit of the brake servo and power
steering. You may need more strength to
steer and brake the vehicle than you nor­
mally would. This would mean a greater risk
of accidents and serious injury, because you
cannot steer and brake in the normal man­
ner.
-Always take the key with you when you leave
the vehicle. Otherwise the engine can be
started or power-operated equipment such
as the electric windows can be used. This
could result in serious injury.
CD CAUTION
If the engine has been working hard for a long
time, there is a risk of heat building up in the
engine compartment after the engine has
been switched off; this could cause engine
damage. For this reason, you should leave the
engine idling for about 2 minutes before
switching it off.
(1'> Note
After the engine is stopped the radiator fan
may run on for up to 10 minutes, even if the
ignition is switched off. The fan may also start
running again after some time if the coolant
temperature rises due to a build-up of heat,
