Press the start button.
Stopping the engine when the vehicle
is moving
WARNING
Switching off the engine when the
vehicle is still moving will result in a
loss of brake and steering assistance.
The steering will not be locked, but higher
effort will be required. When the ignition is
switched off some electrical circuits,
warning lamps and indicators may also be
OFF. Press and hold the start button for two
seconds, or press three times within three
seconds.
Press the start button.
See Keyless Starting (page 129).
Diesel particulate filter (DPF) WARNING
Do not park or idle your vehicle over
dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The DPF
regeneration process creates very high
exhaust gas temperatures and the exhaust
will radiate a considerable amount of heat
during and after DPF regeneration, and
after you have switched the engine off.
This is a potential fire hazard. See Diesel Particulate Filter (page 130).
Fuel filler flap Press the flap to open it. Open the flap fully
until it engages.
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.

RADIO FREQUENCIES
CAUTIONS
The radio frequency used by your
remote control can also be used by
other short distance radio
transmissions (e.g. amateur radios,
medical equipment, wireless headphones,
remote controls and alarm systems). If the
frequencies are jammed, you will not be
able to use your remote control. You can
lock and unlock the doors with the key. Check your vehicle is locked before
leaving it unattended. This will
safeguard against any potential
malicious frequency blocking. Note:
You could unlock the doors if you
press the buttons on the remote control
unintentionally.
The operating range between your remote
control and your vehicle varies depending
on the environment.
