Do not push-start or tow-start your
vehicle. Use booster cables. See
Jump-Starting the Vehicle (page
197). Do not switch the ignition off when
driving.
FUEL FILLER FLAP
WARNINGS
Take care when refuelling to avoid
spilling any residual fuel from the fuel
nozzle.
Do not use any kind of flames or heat
near the fuel system. The fuel system
is under pressure. There is a risk of
injury if the fuel system is leaking. CAUTION
If you use a high pressure spray to
wash your vehicle, only spray the fuel
filler flap briefly from a distance not
less than 200 millimetres (8 inches). Note:
The sliding door is inhibited from
opening fully when the fuel filler flap is open. 1.
Press the flap to open it. Open the flap
fully until it engages. Note:
When you insert the fuel nozzle, a
spring loaded inhibitor will open if the
correct size nozzle is detected. This helps
to avoid filling up with the wrong fuel.
2. Insert the fuel nozzle up to and including the first notch on the nozzle
A. Keep it resting on the cover of the
fuel pipe opening. WARNING
Stop refuelling after the fuel nozzle
stops the second time. Additional
fuel will fill the expansion space in
the fuel tank which could lead to fuel
overflowing. Fuel spillage could be
hazardous to other road users. 137

Electronic stability programme
(ESP)
WARNING
ESP does not relieve you of your
responsibility to drive with due care
and attention.
without ESP
A
with ESP
B
The ESP supports stability when the
vehicle starts to slide away from your
intended path. This is performed by braking
individual wheels and reducing engine
torque as needed.
The system also provides an enhanced
traction control function by reducing
engine torque and may brake individual
wheels if they spin when you accelerate.
This improves your ability to pull away on
slippery roads or loose surfaces, and
improves comfort by limiting wheel spin in
hairpin bends. Stability control (ESP) warning lamp
The ESP warning lamp will flash when the
system is operating. See Warning Lamps
and Indicators (page 79).
Emergency brake assist
WARNING
Emergency brake assist does not
relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention.
Emergency brake assist will detect when
you brake heavily by measuring the rate at
which you press the brake pedal. It will
provide maximum braking efficiency as
long as you press the pedal. Emergency
brake assist can reduce stopping distances
in critical situations.
Trailer stability control
WARNING
Trailer stability control does not
relieve you of your responsibility to
tow with due care and attention.
Trailer stability control is an enhanced
feature of ESP, and automatically detects
when an attached trailer starts to sway.
If this situation occurs, the system will
automatically brake individual wheels to
stabilise the trailer and vehicle. In case a
very severe sway is detected, the engine
torque will be reduced and the vehicle will
be slowed automatically.
USING STABILITY CONTROL
Note:
The system will be switched on
automatically every time you switch the
ignition on.
To turn the system off and on. See
Information Displays (page 83).

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with due
care and attention.
CAUTIONS
Vehicles fitted with a trailer tow
module not approved by us may not
correctly detect obstacles.
The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that
cause disruptive reflections.
The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic
waves.
The parking aid does not detect
obstacles moving away from the
vehicle. They will only be detected
shortly after they start to move towards
the vehicle again. If you use a high pressure spray to
wash your vehicle, only spray the
sensors briefly from a distance not
less than 20 centimetres (8 inches). Parking aid sends tones via the audio
system fitted and approved by us. If
this is not working the parking aid
system will not work. Note:
On vehicles fitted with a tow ball
arm, the rear parking aid is deactivated
automatically when any trailer lamps (or
lighting boards) are connected to the 13-pin
socket via a trailer tow module we have
approved.
Note: Keep the sensors free from dirt, ice
and snow. Do not clean with sharp objects.
Note: The parking aid may emit false tones
if it detects a signal using the same
frequency as the sensors or if the vehicle is
fully laden. Note:
The outer sensors may detect the
side walls of a garage. If the distance
between the outer sensor and the side wall
remains constant for three seconds, the
tone will switch off. As you continue, the
inner sensors will detect rearward objects.
USING THE PARKING AID -
VEHICLES WITH: REAR
PARKING AID WARNING
The parking aid does not relieve you
of your responsibility to drive with
due care and attention.
The parking aid is automatically activated
when you select reverse gear with the
ignition switched on.
You will hear an intermittent tone at a
distance of approximately 150 centimetres
(59 inches) between the obstacle and rear
bumper and approximately 50 centimetres
(20 inches) to the side. Decreasing the
distance accelerates the intermittent tone.

opposite direction, have the tyre refitted
in the correct direction by a properly
trained technician. Do not work underneath the vehicle
when it is supported only by a jack.
Make sure that the jack is vertical to
the jacking point and the base is flat
on the ground.
CAUTION
