Parking assist9 Warning
It is the driver who bears full
responsibility for the parking
manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area while reversing and using the parking assist system.
The parking assist makes parking
easier by measuring the distance between the vehicle and obstacles,
and giving acoustic signals.

Driving and operating133
The system consists of four ultrasonicparking sensors in the rear bumper.
Activation
The parking assist is turned on
automatically when reverse gear is
engaged.
The intervals between the beeps
become shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to the obstacle. When the
distance is less than 30 cm, the beeping is a continuous tone which
stops immediately when the distance
is increased.
Deactivation
The parking assist automatically
switches off when reverse gear is
disengaged.
Fault
In the event of a fault in the system,
r 3 86 illuminates in the instrument
cluster.
Depending on version, a
corresponding warning message,
e.g. Parking help unavailable , may
also be displayed in the Driver
Information Centre 3 91.
The following conditions could affect
the system's performance:
● The ultrasonic sensors are not clean. Keep the bumper free ofmud, dirt, snow, ice and slush.
● The sensors are covered by frost
or ice.
● The rear doors / tailgate are open.
● An object was hanging out of the
rear doors / tailgate during the
last drive cycle. Once the object
has been removed, the parking
assist will return to normal
operation.
● An object or cover is attached to the rear of the vehicle.
● The bumper is damaged. Take the vehicle to a workshop to
repair the system.
● Other conditions, such as vibrations from a jackhammer,
are affecting system
performance.
In the event the system still does not
work properly, seek the assistance of
a workshop.

140Driving and operatingThe maximum permissible vertical
coupling load (60 kg) is specified on
the towing equipment identification
plate and in the vehicle documents.
Always aim for the maximum load,
especially in the case of heavy
trailers. The vertical coupling load
should never fall below 25 kg.
Rear axle load The permissible axle loads (see
identification plate or vehicle
documents) must not be exceeded.

Fuses
Data on the replacement fuse must match the data on the defective fuse.
There are two fuse boxes in the
vehicle:
● on the right of the engine compartment, next to the vehicle
battery
● in left-hand drive vehicles; on the
left-hand side of the instrument panel or, in right-hand drive
vehicles; on the right-hand side
of the instrument panel, behind a
cover
Before replacing a fuse, turn off the
respective switch and the ignition.
There are different types of fuses in
the vehicle.
Depending on the type of fuse, a
blown fuse can be recognised by its
melted wire. Do not replace the fuse until the cause of the fault has been
remedied.

160Vehicle careWheels and tyres
Tyre condition, wheel condition Drive over edges slowly and at right
angles if possible. Driving over sharp
edges can cause tyre and wheel
damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb when parking.
Regularly check the wheels for
damage. Seek the assistance of a
workshop in the event of damage or
unusual wear.
Winter tyres
Winter tyres improve driving safety at temperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.
Tyres of size 185/65 R15,
195/65 R15 and 195/60 R16 C are
permitted as winter tyres.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.Tyre designations

Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of your vehicle.
The maximum speed is achievable at kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus125 kg payload. Optional equipment
could reduce the maximum speed of
the vehicle.
Performance 3 186.
Directional tyres
Directional tyres must be mounted so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel. This also applies to vehicles
with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Tyre pressure 3 191.
The tyre pressure information label
on the door frame (if fitted) indicates
the original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
Always inflate tyres to the pressures
shown on the label.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.

Vehicle care161Tyre pressures differ depending on
various options. For the correct tyre pressure value, follow the procedure
below:
1. Identify the engine identifier code.
Engine data 3 183.
2. Identify the respective tyre.
The tyre pressure tables show all
possible tyre combinations 3 191.
For the tyres approved for your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
The driver is responsible for correct adjustment of tyre pressures.9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading to tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds.
9 Warning
For specific tyres the
recommended tyre pressure as
shown in the tyre pressure table may exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Never exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced
or increased on a vehicle with tyre
pressure monitoring system, switch
off ignition.
Temperature dependency
The tyre pressure depends on the
temperature of the tyre. During
driving, tyre temperature and
pressure increase. Tyre pressure
values provided on the tyre
information label and tyre pressure
chart are valid for cold tyres, which means at 20 °C.
The pressure increases by nearly
10 kPa (0.1 bar) for a 10 °C
temperature increase. This must be
considered when warm tyres are
checked.
Tyre pressure monitoring
system
The tyre pressure monitoring system
uses radio and sensor technology to
check tyre pressure levels.Caution
Tyre pressure monitoring system
warns only about low tyre pressure condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
The tyre pressure monitoring system sensors monitor the air pressure in
the tyres and transmit tyre pressure
readings to a receiver located in the
vehicle.
All wheels must be equipped with
pressure sensors and the tyres must
have the prescribed pressure.
Tyre pressure chart 3 191.

162Vehicle careNote
In countries where the tyre pressure monitoring system is legally
required, the use of wheels without
pressure sensors will invalidate the
vehicle operating permit.
Low tyre pressure condition
A detected low tyre pressure
condition is indicated by illumination
of control indicator w 3 88 together
with a warning chime. In vehicles with Multifunction version of the Driver
Information Centre, a corresponding message is also displayed.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 191.
After inflating, driving may be
required to update the tyre pressure
values in the system. During this time
w may illuminate.
If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after some driving,
this could be an indicator for
approaching a low tyre pressure
condition. Check tyre pressure of all
four tyres.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition.
Only mount wheels with pressure
sensors, otherwise the tyre pressure
value cannot be recognised by the
system and w flashes for several
seconds then illuminates
continuously. In vehicles with
Multifunction version of the Driver Information Centre, a corresponding
message is also displayed.
A spare wheel or temporary spare
wheel is not equipped with pressure
sensors. The tyre pressure
monitoring system is not operationalfor these wheels. For the further three wheels, tyre pressure monitoring
system remains operational.
Spare wheel 3 168, Wheel changing
3 166.
Control indicator w and (depending
on version) a corresponding message
appears at each ignition cycle until
the tyres are inflated to the correct
tyre pressure.
Driver Information Centre 3 91.
Relearn function
After changing wheels, the tyre
pressure monitoring system needs to recalculate. The relearn process
takes up to 20 minutes of driving with
a minimum speed of 20 km/h.
If problems occur during the relearn
process, control indicator w flashes
for several seconds then illuminates
continuously and (depending on
version) a warning message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Driver Information Centre 3 91.

Vehicle care163General informationThe use of tyre chains or
commercially available liquid tyre
repair kits can impair the function of
the system. Factory-approved tyre
repair kits can be used.
Tyre repair kit 3 164.
Tyre chains 3 164.
Operating electronic devices or being
close to facilities using similar wave
frequencies could disrupt the tyre
pressure monitoring system.
Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre pressure monitoring system sensors
must be dismounted and serviced by
a workshop.
Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm (4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons, it is
recommended that the tread depth of
the tyres on one axle should not vary
by more than 2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear
indicators (TWI). Their position is
indicated by markings on the
sidewall.
If there is more wear at the front than
the rear, swap round front wheels and rear wheels periodically. Ensure that
the direction of rotation of the wheels
is the same as before.
Tyres age, even if they are not used.
We recommend tyre replacement
every six years.
Changing tyre and wheel
size
If tyres of a different size than those
fitted at the factory are used, it may be necessary to reprogramme the
speedometer as well as the nominal
tyre pressure and to make other
vehicle modifications.
After converting to a different tyre
size, have the label with tyre
pressures replaced.
Tyre pressure monitoring system
3 161.9 Warning
The use of unsuitable tyres or
wheels may lead to accidents and will invalidate the vehicle
operating permit.
Wheel covers
Wheel covers and tyres that are
factory approved for the respective
vehicle and comply with all of the
relevant wheel and tyre combination
requirements must be used.

Spare wheel Some vehicles are equipped with atyre repair kit 3 164 instead of a spare
wheel.
If mounting a spare wheel which is
different from the other wheels, this
wheel might be classified as a
temporary spare wheel and the
corresponding speed limits apply,
even though no label indicates this.
Seek the assistance of a workshop to
check the applicable speed limit.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that is smaller than the other wheels or in combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
Depending on model variant, the
spare wheel is stored beneath the
floor or in the load compartment.
