Picture no: 18251s.tif
Control indicator
Z for exhaust
Illuminates when the ignition is switched on
and during the start attempt. Goes off
shortly after the engine starts running.
Illumination whilst the engine is running
indicates a fault in the emission control
system. The permissible emission limits
may be exceeded. Contact a workshop for
assistance immediately.
Illumination with the engine running
indicates a fault that can cause damage to
the catalytic converter. It is possible to
continue driving without causing damage
by slowing down until the flashing stops
and the control indicator illuminates.
Contact a workshop for assistance
immediately.
Picture no: 18231s.tif
Control indicator
A
for engine electronics
Illuminates for a few seconds after the
ignition is switched on.
If it illuminates when the engine is running,
there is a fault in engine or transmission
electronics. The electr onic system switches
to an emergency runni ng programme. Fuel
consumption may be increased and the
driveability of the vehicle may be impaired.
In some cases the fault can be remedied by
switching the engine off and starting it
again. If the control indicator continues to
illuminate whilst the en gine is running,
contact a workshop for assistance in
remedying the cause of the fault. If it illuminates briefly, but does not recur, it
is of no significance.
If
A lights up, this could mean that there
is water in the diesel fuel filter 3. A
message appears at the same time on the
service display 391. Have the fuel filter
checked for possible water contamination
by a workshop.
If it flashes after the ignition is switched on,
there is a fault in the immobiliser system.
The engine cannot be started 327.

Driving and operation
Engine exhaust Diesel particle filter 3
The diesel particle filter system filters
harmful soot particles out of the exhaust
gases. The system includes a self-cleaning
function that run automatically during
driving. The filter is cleaned by burning off
the soot particles at hi gh temperature. This
process takes place automatically under
set driving conditions and may take up
to 25 minutes. Fuel consumption may be
higher during this period. The emission of
smells and smoke during this process is
normal.
Picture no: 18544s.tif
Under certain driving conditions, e.g. short
journeys, the system may not clean itself
automatically.
If the filter requires cleaning and previous
driving conditions did not enable
automatic cleaning, control indicator !
flashes. Continue driving, keeping engine
speed above 2000 rpm
-1. Shift down if
necessary. Diesel partic le filter cleaning is
then initiated.

Warning
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, which is colourless
and odourless and could be fatal if
inhaled.
If exhaust gases penetrate the vehicle,
open windows and contact a workshop
for assistance.
Avoid driving with the tailgate open,
since exhaust gas can enter the interior
of the vehicle.

256 Technical DataFuel consumption, CO
2-emissions
Directive 80/1268/EEC (last changed
by 2004/3/EC) has applied for the
measurement of fuel consumption
since 1996.The directive is oriented to actual driving
practices: Urban driving is rated at
approx.
1/3 and off-road driving with
approx.2/3 (urban and extra-urban
consumption). Cold starts and acceleration
phases are also taken into consideration.
The specification of CO
2-emission is also
a constituent of the directive. The figures given must not be taken as a
guarantee for the actual fuel consumption
of a particular vehicle.
All values are based on the EU base model
with standard equipment.
The calculation of fuel consumption as
specified by directive 2004/3/EC takes
account of the vehicle’s kerb weight,
ascertained in accordance with the said
regulation. Optional ex
tras may result in
slightly higher fuel consumption and
CO
2-emission levels than those quoted.
