214Vehicle careThe use of commercially-availableliquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
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. For the screwed sensor; replace
valve core and sealing ring. For the
clipped sensor; replace complete
valve stem.
Vehicle loading status
Adjust tyre pressure to load condition according to the tyre information labelor tyre pressure chart 3 252, and
select the appropriate setting in the menu Tyre Load in the Driver
Information Centre, Vehicle
Information Menu 3 97 . This setting is
the reference for the tyre pressure
warnings.The menu Tyre Load only appears
when the vehicle is at a standstill and
the parking brake is applied. On
vehicles with automatic transmission, the selector lever must be in P.
Midlevel display:
Select ● LO for comfort pressure up to
three people.
● ECO for Eco pressure up to
three people.
● Hi for full loading.
Uplevel display:
Select ● Light for comfort pressure up to
three people.
● Eco for Eco pressure up to
three people.
● Max for full loading.
Tyre pressure sensor matching process
Each pressure sensor has a unique identification code. The identification
code must be matched to a new
wheel position after rotating the
wheels or exchanging the complete
wheel set and if one or more tyre
Page 217 of 271

Vehicle care215pressure sensors were replaced. The
tyre pressure sensor matching
process should also be performed
after replacing a spare wheel with a
road wheel containing a tyre pressure sensor.
The malfunction light w and the
warning message or code should
extinguish at the next ignition cycle.
The sensors are matched to the
wheel positions, using a relearn tool,
in the following order: left side front
wheel, right side front wheel, right
side rear wheel and left side rear
wheel. The turn light at the current
active position is illuminated until
sensor is matched.
Consult a workshop for service. There
are 2 minutes to match the first wheel position, and 5 minutes overall to
match all four wheel positions. If it
takes longer, the matching process
stops and must be restarted.
The tyre pressure sensor matching
process is:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on.3. On vehicles with automatic transmission: set the selector
lever to P.
On vehicles with manual
transmission automated: Keep
brake pedal depressed. Move and hold the selector lever for
5 seconds to position N until P is
displayed in the Driver
Information Centre. P indicates
that the tyre pressure sensor
matching process can be started.
On vehicles with manual
transmission: select neutral.
4. Use MENU on the stalk to select
the Vehicle Information
Menu ? in the Driver
Information Centre.
5. Turn the adjuster wheel to scroll to
the tyre pressure menu.

Vehicle care223Wheel changing
Make the following preparations and observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-skid surface. The front
wheels must be in the straight- ahead position.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first gear, reverse gear or
P .
● Never change more than one wheel at once.
● Use the jack only to change wheels in case of puncture, not
for seasonal winter or summer
tyre change.
● The jack is maintenance-free. ● If the ground on which the vehicle
is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be
placed under the jack.
● Take heavy objects out of the vehicle before jacking up.
● No people or animals may be in the vehicle when it is jacked-up.
● Never crawl under a jacked-up vehicle.●Do not start the vehicle when it is
raised on the jack.
● Before screwing in the wheel bolts, clean them and lightly coat
the taper of each wheel bolt with
commercially available grease.9 Warning
Do not grease the thread of the
wheel bolt.
1. Steel wheels:
Pull off the wheel cover.
Alloy wheels with bolt caps: Disengage wheel bolt caps with a
screwdriver and remove. To
protect the wheel, place a soft
cloth between the screwdriver
and the alloy wheel.2. Install the wheel wrench ensuring that it locates securely and loosen
each wheel bolt by half a turn.
The wheels might be protected by
locking wheel bolts. To loosen
these specific bolts, first attach
the adapter for the locking wheel
bolts onto the head of the bolt
before installing the wheel
wrench. The adapter is located in
the glovebox.

228Vehicle care● Apply the parking brake,transmission in neutral,
automatic transmission in P.
● Open the positive terminal protection caps of both vehiclebatteries.
Lead connection order:
1. Connect the red lead to the positive terminal of the booster
vehicle battery.
2. Connect the other end of the red lead to the positive terminal of the
discharged vehicle battery.
3. Connect the black lead to the negative terminal of the booster
vehicle battery.
4. Connect the other end of the black
lead to a vehicle grounding point,
such as the engine block or an
engine mounting bolt. Connect as far away from the discharged
vehicle battery as possible,
however at least 60 cm.
Route the leads so that they cannot
catch on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.
To start the engine: 1. Start the engine of the vehicle providing the jump.
2. After 5 minutes, start the other engine. Start attempts should be
made for no longer than
15 seconds at an interval of
1 minute.
3. Allow both engines to idle for approx. 3 minutes with the leads
connected.4. Switch on electrical consumers (e.g. headlights, heated rear
window) of the vehicle receiving
the jump start.
5. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads.

Vehicle care229Towing
Towing the vehicle
Wrap a cloth around the tip of a flat
screwdriver to prevent paint damage.
Insert the screwdriver in the slot at the
lower part of the cap. Release the cap by carefully moving the screwdriver
downwards.
The towing eye is stowed with the
vehicle tools 3 209.
Screw in the towing eye as far as it will
go until it stops in a horizontal
position.
Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow
rod – to the towing eye.
The towing eye must only be used for
towing and not for recovering the
vehicle.
Switch on ignition to release steering wheel lock and to permit operation of
brake lights, horn and windscreen
wiper.
Switch the selector lever to neutral.
Release the parking brake.
Caution
Drive slowly. Do not drive jerkily.
Excessive tractive force can
damage the vehicle.
When the engine is not running,
considerably more force is needed to
brake and steer.
To prevent the entry of exhaust gases from the towing vehicle, switch on the
air recirculation and close the
windows.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: the vehicle must be towed facing
forwards, not faster than 80 km/h nor further than 100 km. In all other cases
and when the transmission is
defective, the front axle must be
raised off the ground.
Vehicles with manual transmission
automated: the vehicle must only be
towed facing forwards with the front axle raised off the ground.
Seek the assistance of a workshop. After towing, unscrew the towing eye.
Insert cap at the top and engage
downwards.

Customer information261This data includes, for example:● Vehicle status information (e.g. wheel rotation rate, speed,
movement delay, lateral
acceleration, "seatbelts
fastened" display),
● Ambient conditions (e.g. temperature, rain sensor,
distance sensor).
Most of this data is volatile and is processed only in the vehicle itself,and not beyond the operating time.
Moreover, many control units include
data storage device (amongst others the vehicle key). This is used to allow
information to be documented
temporarily or permanently on vehicle
condition, component stress,
maintenance requirements and
technical events and errors.
The following information, for
example, is stored:
● System component operating states (e.g. fill level, tyre
pressure, battery status),
● State of charge of the high voltage battery, estimated range
(in the case of electric vehicles),● Faults and defects in important system components (e.g. lights,
brakes),
● System reactions in special driving situations (e.g. triggeringof an airbag, actuation of the
stability control systems),
● Information on events damaging the vehicle.
In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be
necessary to save data that would
otherwise just be volatile.
When you use services, the operating data saved can be read together withthe vehicle identification number andused if necessary. Staff working for
the service net-work (e.g. garages,
manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.
breakdown services) can read the
data from the vehicle. Services
include repair services, maintenance
processes, warranty cases and
quality assurance measures.
Data is generally read via the OBD
(On-Board Diagnostics) port
prescribed by law in the vehicle. The operating data which has been read
out documents the technical conditionof the vehicle or individual
components and assists with fault
diagnosis, compliance with warranty
obligations and quality improvement.
This data, in particular information on
component stress, technical events,
operator errors and other faults, is
transmitted to the manufacturer
where appropriate, together with the vehicle identification number. The
manufacturer is also subject to
product liability. The manufacturer
potentially also needs operating data
from vehicles for product recalls.
Fault memories in the vehicle can be
reset by a service company when
carrying out servicing or repairs.
Comfort and infotainment
functions
Comfort settings and custom settings can be stored in the vehicle and
changed at any time.
