Service information 3 278.
Control indicators The control indicators described are
not present in all vehicles. The
description applies to all instrument
versions. Depending on the
equipment, the position of the control
indicators may vary. When the
ignition is switched on, most control
indicators will illuminate briefly as a
functionality test.
The control indicator colours mean:red:danger, important reminderyellow:warning, information, faultgreen:confirmation of activationblue:confirmation of activationwhite:confirmation of activation
See all control indicators on different
instrument clusters 3 97.

filter is potentially not possible.
Seek the assistance of a workshop
immediately.
Flashes when the engine is
running
Fault that could lead to catalytic converter damage. Ease up on the
accelerator until the flashing stops.
Seek the assistance of a workshop
immediately.
Brake and clutch system
R illuminates red.
The brake and clutch fluid level is too low.9 Warning
Stop. Do not continue your
journey. Consult a workshop.
Electric parking brake
m illuminates or flashes red.
Illuminates
Electric parking brake is applied
3 171.
Flashes
Electric parking brake is not fully applied or released. Depress the
brake pedal and attempt to reset the system by first releasing then
applying the electric parking brake. If
m remains flashing, do not drive and
seek the assistance of a workshop.
Electric parking brake fault
j illuminates or flashes yellow.
Illuminates
Electric parking brake is operating
with degraded performance 3 171.
Flashes
Electric parking brake is in service
mode. Stop vehicle, apply and
release the electric parking brake to
reset.9 Warning
Have the cause of the fault
remedied immediately by a
workshop. Avoid parking on
inclines until the cause of the fault has been remedied.
Antilock brake system
(ABS)
u illuminates yellow.
Illuminates for a few seconds after the
ignition is switched on. The system is ready for operation when the control
indicator extinguishes.
If the control indicator does not go out after a few seconds, or if it illuminates while driving, there is a fault in the
ABS. The brake system remains
operational but without ABS
regulation.
Antilock brake system 3 170.

170Driving and operatingDrive systems
All-wheel drive
The All-wheel drive system enhances
driving characteristics and stability,
and helps to achieve the best
possible driveability regardless of
ground surface. The system is always
active and cannot be deactivated.
The torque is distributed steplessly
between the wheels of the front and
rear axle up to a torque split of 50%
to 50%. Depending on the driving
conditions, i.e. steady state driving,
All wheel drive system transfers a
minimum amount of torque for fuel
efficiency. Additionally the torque
vectoring between the rear wheels is
distributed depending on the vehicle
dynamic and surface.
This is possible because the All wheel drive system operates with two
clutches, one on each side.
For optimum system performance,
the vehicle's tyres should not have
varying degrees of wear.If a service message is displayed in
the Driver Information Centre, the
system may have limited functionality
(or be completely disabled in some
cases, i.e. the vehicle switches to
Front-wheel drive). Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
Towing the vehicle 3 271.Brakes
The brake system comprises two independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can
still be braked using the other brake
circuit. However, braking effect is
achieved only when the brake pedal
is depressed firmly. Considerably
more force is needed for this. The braking distance is extended. Seek
the assistance of a workshop before
continuing the journey.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit
disappears once the brake pedal has
been depressed once or twice.
Braking effect is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to bear this in mind when being towed.
Control indicator R 3 107.
Active emergency braking 3 194.
Antilock brake system Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.

206Driving and operatingSide blind spot alertThe Side blind spot alert system
detects and reports objects on either
side of the vehicle, within a specified
"blind spot" zone. The system
displays a visual alert in each exterior
mirror, when detecting objects that
may not be visible in the interior and
exterior mirrors.
The radar distance sensors are
located in the rear bumper.9 Warning
Side blind spot alert does not
replace driver vision.
The system does not detect:
● vehicles outside the side blind zones which may be rapidly
approaching
● pedestrians, cyclists or animals
Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn lights.
When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly
illuminate to indicate that the system
is operating.
When the system detects a moving
vehicle in the side blind spot while
driving forwards, either while passing
a vehicle or being passed, a yellow
warning symbol F will illuminate in
the relevant exterior mirror. If the
driver then activates the turn lights,
the warning symbol F starts
flashing yellow as a warning not to
change lanes.
Side blind spot alert is active at any
speed.
Deactivation
Activation or deactivation of the Side
blind zone alert can be set in the
vehicle personalisation menu in the
Info Display.
Vehicle personalisation 3 123.
Info Display 3 117.
Deactivation is indicated by a message in the Driver Information
Centre.
System limitations Occasional missed alerts can occur
under normal circumstances or in
sharp curves. The system can
temporarily alert of objects in the blind spot at specific weather conditions
(rain, hail etc). Driving on a wet road
or in the transitions from a dry area to
a wet area can cause the control
indicator F to light up, as water
splash can be interpreted as an object. Otherwise the control indicator
F may illuminate due to guardrails,
signs, trees, shrubs or other immobile objects. This is normal operation and
the system does not need to be
serviced.

208Driving and operatingDetection zones
The system sensors cover a zone of
approx. 3.5 m parallel on both vehicle
sides and approx. 3 m rearwards on
side blind zone alert (A) and approx.
50 m rearwards on lane change alert (B) on parallel lanes. The zones start
at each exterior mirror. The height of
the zone is approx. between 0.5 m
and 2 m off the ground.
Deactivation Activation or deactivation of the lane
change alert can be set in the vehicle personalisation menu in the Info
Display.

the system does not need to be
serviced.The system may not operate properly
when:
● ice, snow, mud, stickers, magnets, metal plates, or
anything else covers the sensors
● driving in heavy rainstorms
● the vehicle had an accident or if the area surrounding the
detection sensor is damaged or
not properly repaired
● there are extreme temperature changes
● the vehicle is towing a trailer
In the event of a fault in the system or if the system does not work due to
temporary conditions, a message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. Seek the assistance of a
workshop.
Note
Each new vehicle requires a
calibration. For optimal
performance, drive as soon as
possible on a straight motorway road with roadside objects, e.g.
guardrails and barriers for some
distance.
