38Seats, restraintsFront airbag systemThe front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel and
one in the instrument panel on the
front passenger side. These can be
identified by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of a front-end impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and head of
the front seat occupants
considerably.
9 Warning
Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is in the
proper position.
Seat position 3 28.
Keep the area in which the airbag
inflates clear of obstructions.
Fit the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then is the
airbag able to protect.
Side airbag system
The side airbag system consists of an
airbag in each front seat backrest.
This can be identified by the word
AIRBAG
The side airbag system is triggered in the event of a side impact of a certain
severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and pelvis in
the event of a side-on collision
considerably.

52StorageRemove the roof rack when not inuse.Loading information
● Heavy objects in the load compartment should be placed
against the seat backrests. Make
sure that the backrests are
securely engaged. If objects can
be stacked, heavier objects
should be placed at the bottom.
● Prevent sliding of loose objects by securing them with straps
attached to the lashing eyes
3 51.
● Do not allow the load to protrude above the upper edge of the
backrests.
● Do not place any objects on the load compartment cover or theinstrument panel, and do notcover the sensor on top of the
instrument panel.
● The load must not obstruct the operation of the pedals, parking
brake and gear selector, or
hinder the freedom of movement of the driver. Do not place any
unsecured objects in the interior.
● Do not drive with an open load compartment.9Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or car.
● The payload is the difference between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 203) and the EC kerb
weight.

96Climate controlAuxiliary heater
Air heater Quickheat is an electric auxiliary air
heater which automatically warms up
the passenger compartment more
quickly.Air vents
Adjustable air vents Centre air vents in the instrument
panel
Direct the flow of air by tilting and
swivelling the slats.
To close the vent, swivel the slats
inwards.
Outer air vents in the instrument
panel
Direct the flow of air by tilting and
swivelling the slats.
To close the vent, swivel the slats
outwards.
At least two air vents must be open
while cooling is on.
9 Warning
Do not attach any objects to the
slats of the air vents. Risk of
damage and injury in case of an
accident.

Driving and operating131take action and depress the brake
pedal if you need to brake more
quickly.
Hill considerations9 Warning
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on steep hill roads.
System performance on hills depends
on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions and the road gradient. It
may not detect a vehicle in your path
while driving on hills. On steep hills,
you may have to use the accelerator
pedal to maintain your vehicle speed.
When going downhill you may have to brake to maintain or reduce your
speed.
Note that applying the brake
deactivates the system.
Radar unit
The radar unit is located in the middle of the front bumper.
9 Warning
The radar unit was aligned
carefully during manufacture.
Therefore, in the event of a front-
end impact, do not use the system. The front bumper may appear to
be intact, however the sensor
behind may be affected and react
incorrectly. After an accident,
consult a workshop to verify and
adjust the radar unit position.
9 Warning
The usage of a license plate
support may have an impact on
the proper operation of the radar
unit and may limit sensor
perfomance. Vehicles driving
ahead, pedestrians or other
objects located in front of the
vehicle may not be detected by the
system.
Do not use a license plate support on the front bumper to ensure
proper system functionality.
Fault
In the event of a fault with the adaptive cruise control, you are alerted by the
illumination of a warning light and the
display of a message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an audible signal.
The adaptive cruise control may not
operate correctly if traffic signs do not
comply with the Vienna Convention
on Road Signs and Signals.
Have the system checked by a dealer or a qualified workshop.

Driving and operating147Operation conditions
The following conditions must be
fulfilled for proper operation:
● all vehicles are moving in the same direction and in adjacent
lanes
● depending on the configuration of
the vehicle, the speed of your
vehicle is between 12 or 33 and
140 km/h
● passing a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 10 km/h
● another vehicle is passing with a speed difference of less than
25 km/h
● the traffic flow is normal
● driving on a straight or slightly curved road
● the vehicle is not pulling a trailer
● the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow
● the warning zones in the door mirrors or the detection zones on
front and rear bumper ar not
covered with adhesive labels or
other objectsNo alert will be given in the following
situations:
● in the presence of non-moving objects, e.g. parked vehicles,
barriers, street lamps, road signs
● with vehicles moving in the opposite direction
● driving on a winding road or a sharp corner
● when passing or being passed by
a very long vehicle, e.g. lorry,
coach, which is at the same time
detected at the rear in the blind
spot angle and present in the
driver's forward field of vision
● in very heavy traffic, vehicles detected in front and behind are
confused with a lorry or a
stationary object
● when passing too quickly
Deactivation The system can be activated via the
vehicle settings menu in the Info
Display.
Info Display 3 75.The state of the system is memorised
when switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically
deactivated when towing an
electrically connected trailer.
Due to adverse weather conditions,
such as heavy rain, false detections
may occur.
Fault
In the event of a fault, C illuminates
in the instrument panel, accompanied a display message. Contact a dealer
or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Active side blind spot detection In addition to the regular side blind
spot alert, the active side blind spot
detection corrects the vehicle's
trajectory by turning the steering
wheel gently back into lane when an
object is detected within a specified
blind spot zone. The system is only
active when side blind spot alert and
lane keep assist are activated as well.
Lane keep assist 3 152.
