If engine coolant temperature is
too high, stop vehicle, switch off
engine. Danger to engine. Check
coolant level.
Engine oil level monitor
The state of the engine oil level is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre for a few seconds following
the service information after switching
on the ignition.
A proper state of oil level is indicated
by the message Oil level correct.
If oil level is low, I flashes and Oil
level incorrect is indicated,
accompanied by the H indicator.
Confirm oil level by using the oil
dipstick and top up engine oil
respectively. Engine oil 3 188.
A fault of measurment is indicated by
the message Oil level measurment
invalid . Check oil level manually by
using the dipstick.
Service display
The service system informs when to
change the engine oil and filter or a
vehicle service is required. Based on
driving conditions, the interval at
which an engine oil and filter change
is required can vary considerably.
Service information 3 224
A required service due is displayed in
the Driver Information Centre forseven seconds after switching on the
ignition.
If no service is required for the next
3000 km or more, no service
information appears in the display.
If service due is required within the
next 3000 km, the remaining distance or time duration is indicated for
several seconds. Simultaneously
symbol F lights up permamently as
reminder.
If service due is less than 1000 km,
F flashes and then lights up
permanently. Remaining distance or
time duration is indicated for several
seconds.
Overdued service is indicated by a
message in the Driver Information
Centre which indicates the overdued
distance. F flashes and then lights up
permanently until service is executed.
Reset of service interval After each service, the service
indicator must be reset to ensure
proper functionality. It is
recommended to seek the assistance
of a workshop.
If service is executed by yourself,
operate as following:
● switch off ignition
● press and hold button M or

Driving and operating133Driving hints
Control of the vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running
Many systems will not function in this
situation ( e.g. brake servo unit, power
steering). Driving in this manner is a danger to yourself and others.
All systems function during an
Autostop.
Stop-start system 3 138.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to battery condition, the
power output of the generator must be increased. This will be achieved by an idle boost which may be audible.
A message appears in the Driver
Information Centre.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in
the area of the pedals.Use only floor mats, which fit properly and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.
Steering If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.Starting and operating
New vehicle running-in Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system. Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period, fuel and engine oil consumption may be
higher.
Additionally, the cleaning process of
the diesel particle filter may take
place more often.
Diesel particle filter 3 141.
Autostop may be inhibited to allow
charging of the vehicle battery.
Ignition switch positions Turn key:

Driving and operating137Automatic transmission: operate
brake pedal and move selector lever
to P or N.
Do not operate accelerator pedal.
Press and release Start/Stop: an
automatic procedure operates the
starter with a short delay until the engine is running.
Before restarting or to switch off the
engine when vehicle is stationary, press Start/Stop once more briefly.
Manual transmission: during an
Autostop, the engine can be started
by depressing the clutch pedal
3 138.
Automatic transmission: during an
Autostop, the engine can be started
by releasing the brake pedal 3 138.
Emergency shut off during driving If the engine needs to be switched offduring driving in case of emergency,
press Start/Stop for five seconds.9Danger
Switching off the engine during
driving may cause loss of power
support for brake and steering
systems. Assistance systems and
airbag systems are disabled.
Lighting and brake lights will
extinguish. Therefore power down the engine and ignition while
driving only when required in case of emergency.
Starting the vehicle at low
temperatures
Starting the engine without additional
heaters is possible down to -25 °С for diesel engines and -30 °C for petrol
engines. Required is an engine oil
with the correct viscosity, the correct fuel, performed services and a
sufficiently charged vehicle battery.
With temperatures below -30 °C the
automatic transmission requires a
warming phase of approx.
five minutes. The selector lever must
be in position P.
Heating functionalities
Note
Individual heating functionalities,
such as heated seats or heated
steering wheel, may be temporarily
unavailable in the event of electrical
loading constraints. Functions will
be resumed after some minutes.
Turbo engine warm-up
Upon start-up, engine available
torque may be limited for a short time,
especially when the engine
temperature is cold. The limitation is
to allow the lubrication system to fully
protect the engine.
Overrun cut-off
The fuel supply is automatically cut off
during overrun, i.e. when the vehicle
is driven with a gear engaged but accelerator pedal is released.
Depending on driving conditions, the
overrun cut-off may be deactivated.

178Driving and operatingSome fuel does not contain sufficient
quantities of additive to keep fuel injectors and intake valves clean.
To make up for this lack of
detergency, add Fuel System
Treatment PLUS to the fuel tank at
every engine oil change or every
10,000 km, whichever occurs first. It
is available at your workshop.
Fuels containing oxygenates such as
ethers and ethanol, as well as
reformulated fuel, are available in
some cities. If these fuels comply with the previously described
specification, then they are
acceptable to use. However, E85
(85% ethanol) and other fuels
containing more than 15% ethanol
must be used only in FlexFuel
vehicles.Caution
Do not use fuel containing
methanol. It can corrode metal
parts in the fuel system and also
damage plastic and rubber parts.
This damage would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Some fuels, mainly high octane
racing fuels, can contain an octane
enhancing additive called
methylcyclopentadienyl manganese
tricarbonyl (MMT). Do not use fuels or fuel additives with MMT as they can
reduce spark plug life and affect
emission control system
performance. The malfunction
indicator light Z may turn on 3 91. If
this occurs, seek the assistance of a
workshop.
Fuel for diesel engines Only use diesel fuel that complies
with EN 590.
In countries outside the European
Union use Euro-Diesel fuel with a
sulfur concentration below 50 ppm.Caution
Use of fuel that does not comply to EN 590 or similar can lead to
engine powerloss, increased wear
or engine damage.
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils, Aquazole and similar diesel-
water emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
Low temperature operation At temperatures below 0° C, some
diesel products with biodiesel blends may clog, freeze or gel, which mayaffect the fuel supply system. Starting
and engine operation may not work
properly. Make sure to fill winter
grade diesel fuel at ambient
temperatures below 0° C.
Arctic grade diesel fuel can be used
in extreme cold temperatures below
-20° C. Using this fuel grade in warm
or hot climates is not recommended
and may cause engine stalling, poor starting or damage on the fuel
injection system.
Fuel for liquid gas operation
Liquid gas is known as LPG
(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) or under its French name GPL (Gaz de Pétrole Liquéfié). LPG is also known as
Autogas.
