Parking using the parking assistant
Check the traffic situation as well
Louds noises outside and inside the vehi‐
cle can drown out the parking assistant's and
PDC's signals.
Check the traffic situation around the vehicle
with your own eyes; otherwise, there is a dan‐
ger of an accident. ◀
1.Switch on the parking assistant and activate
it if needed.
The status of the parking space search is in‐
dicated on the display.2.Follow the instructions on the display.
The best possible parking position will
come after gear change on the stationary
vehicle - wait for the automatic steering
wheel move.
The end of the parking procedure is indi‐
cated on the display.3.Adjust the parking position yourself if
needed.
Interrupting manually
The parking assistant can be interrupted at any
time:

following situations:▷If the driver grasps the steering wheel or if
he takes over steering.▷If a gear is selected that does not match the
instruction on the display.▷If the vehicle speed exceeds approx.
6 mph/10 km/h.▷Possible on snow-covered or slippery road
surfaces.▷If a maximum number of parking attempts
or the time taken for parking is exceeded.▷If the Park Distance Control PDC displays
clearances that are too small.▷When switching into other functions of the
radio.
A Check Control message is displayed.
Resume
An interrupted parking procedure can be con‐
tinued if needed.

perature settings. The automatic climate con‐
trol will not have sufficient time to adjust the
set temperature.
Air flow, manual
To manually adjust air flow turn off AUTO pro‐
gram first.
Turn the ring to set the desired
air volume.
Automatic climate control displays the selected
amount of air flow.
The air flow of the automatic climate control
may be reduced automatically to save battery
power.AUTO program
Press button.
Air flow, air distribution and tempera‐
ture are controlled automatically.
Depending on the selected temperature, AUTO
intensity and outside influences, the air is di‐
rected to the windshield, side windows, upper
body, and into the footwell.
The cooling function, refer to page 134, and
the automatic recirculation control, refer to
page 134, are automatically also switched on
in the AUTO program.
To reel off the program: press the button again
or manually adjust the air distribution.

Controls
Before operation
Before operating a system using the uni‐
versal garage door opener, ensure that there
are no people, animals, or objects within the
range of movement of the remote-controlled
system; otherwise, there is a risk of injury or
damage.
Also follow the safety instructions of the hand-
held transmitter. ◀
The system, such as the garage door, can be
operated using the button on the interior rear‐
view mirror while the engine is running or
when the ignition is started. To do this, hold
down the button within receiving range of the
system until the function is activated. The inte‐
rior rearview mirror LED stays lit while the wire‐
less signal is being transmitted.
Deleting stored functions
Press and hold the left and right button on the
interior rearview mirror simultaneously for ap‐
proximately 20 seconds until the LED flashes
rapidly. All stored functions are deleted. The
functions cannot be deleted individually.

Calibrating the digital compass The digital compass must be calibrated in the
event of the following:
▷The wrong compass point is displayed.▷The point of the compass displayed does
not change despite changing the direction
of travel.▷Not all points of the compass are displayed.Procedure1.Make sure that there are no large metallic
objects or overhead power lines near the
vehicle and that there is sufficient room to
drive around in a circle.2.Set the currently applicable compass zone.3.Press and hold the control button for ap‐
prox. 6 to 7 seconds so that "C" appears on
the display. Next, drive in a complete circle
at least once at a speed of no more than
4 mph/7 km/h. If calibration is successful,
the "C" is replaced by the points of the
compass.
Left/right-hand steering
The digital compass is already set for right or
left-hand steering at the factory.

The Coasting driving condition is enabled under
certain conditions.
Under certain conditions the engine is auto‐
matically decoupled from the transmission in
selector lever position D. The vehicle continues
traveling with the engine idling to reduce fuel
consumption. Selector lever position D remains
engaged. An indicator provides information
about the distance traveled in Coasting mode.
In addition, context-sensitive instructions are
displayed to assist with an optimized fuel con‐
sumption driving style.
The achieved extended range is displayed in
the instrument cluster.

Additionally heat output to seats and exterior
mirror is reduced.
Exterior mirror heat is available when outside
temperatures are very low.

GREEN bonus range An adjusted driving style helps
you extend your driving range.
This may be displayed as the bo‐
nus range in the instrument clus‐

The bonus range is shown in the range display.
The bonus range is automatically reset every
time the vehicle is refueled.▷Green display: efficient driving style.▷Gray display: adjust driving style, e. g. by
backing off the accelerator pedal.

A bar display in the instrument
cluster indicates your current
driving efficiency.
Mark in the left area, arrow 1:
display for energy recovered by
coasting or when braking.
Mark in the right area, arrow 2: display when

▷Green display: efficient driving style as long
as the mark moves within the green range.▷Gray display: adjust driving style, e. g. by
backing off the accelerator pedal.
The display switches to green as soon as all
conditions for fuel-efficiency-optimized driving
are met.

Instructions tell you to reel to a more fuel-effi‐
cient driving style when you back off the accel‐
erator.

Coasting
The concept
The system helps to conserve fuel.
To do this, under certain conditions the engine
is automatically decoupled from the transmis‐
sion when selector lever position D is set. The
vehicle continues traveling with the engine
idling to reduce fuel consumption. Selector
lever position D remains engaged.
This driving condition is referred to as coasting.
As soon as the brake or accelerator pedal is de‐
pressed, the engine is automatically coupled to
the transmission again.
Hints
Coasting is a component of the GREEN driving
mode, refer to page 160.
Coasting is automatically activated when
GREEN mode is called via the Driving Dynamics
Control, refer to page 111.
The function is available in a certain speed
range.
A proactively driving style helps the driver to
use the function as often as possible and sup‐
ports the fuel-conserving effect of coasting.
Safety mode
The function is not available under one of the
following conditions.▷DSC OFF or TRACTION activated.▷Driving in the dynamic limit range and on
steep uphill or downhill grades.▷Battery charge status temporarily too low
or vehicle electrical system drawing exces‐
sive current.▷Cruise control activated.
Functional requirements
In GREEN mode, this function is available in a
speed range from approximately 30 mph, ap‐
prox. 50 km/h to 100 mph, approx. 160 km/h,
if the following conditions are met:
▷Accelerator pedal and brake pedal are not
operated.▷The selector lever is in selector lever posi‐
tion D.▷Engine and transmission are at operating
temperature.Seite 163Saving fuelDRIVING TIPS163

MINIMALISM driving style analysis
The concept
In this situation the system helps develop an
especially efficient driving style and to conserve
fuel.
For this purpose, the driving style is analyzed.
The assessment is done in various categories
and is displayed on the Control Display.
Using this indication, the individual driving style
can be oriented toward conserving fuel.
The last fifteen minutes of a trip are evaluated.
The range of the vehicle can be extended by an
efficient driving style. This gain in range is dis‐
played as a bonus range in the instrument clus‐
ter and on the Control Display.
