Automatic lockingAutomatic locking after driving off
The vehicle is locked automatically when exceeding a speed of 4 km/h.
Opening from outside is not possible.
Additionally, opening of the rear
doors from inside is not possible
when the vehicle speed is above
4 km/h.
Green LEDs indicate that opening
from inside is possible:
Hold the inner rear door handle to
activate the proximity sensor and
then pull the handle.
When the vehicle speed is below
4 km/h, opening of the doors from
outside is possible after:
● opening any door from inside
● pressing the central locking button
Caution
Automatic locking is only active
with ignition on.
Fault in the automatic locking system
In case of a system fault, control
indicator ^ illuminates in the
instrument cluster and a warning
chime sounds to indicate that the rear
doors are not secured against
opening. Inform passengers to keep
clear of the door handles.
Stop immediately and activate the
child lock in both rear doors. If the
child lock is already activated, first
deactivate and then activate again.
The green LEDs will extinguish and
the warning chime will stop as soon
as both child locks are activated. Pull the inner rear door handles to check
if the doors are locked from inside.
Consult a workshop.

Keys, doors and windows31Automatic anti-dazzle
Dazzle from following vehicles at
night is automatically reduced.
Windows
Windscreen Heat-reflecting windscreenThe heat-reflecting windscreen has a
coating which reflects solar radiation.
Also data signals, e.g. from toll
stations, might be reflected.
The marked areas on the windscreen are not covered with the coating.
Devices for electronic data recording
and fee payment must be attached in
these areas. Otherwise data
recording malfunctions may occur.
Windscreen stickers
Do not attach stickers such as toll
road stickers or similar on the
windscreen in the area of the interior
mirror. Otherwise the detection zone
of the sensor and the view area of the camera in the mirror housing could be
restricted.
Manual windows The door windows can be opened or
closed with the window cranks.
Power windows9 Warning
Take care when operating the
power windows. Risk of injury,
particularly to children.
If there are children on the rear seats, switch on the child safety
system for the power windows.
Keep a close watch on the
windows when closing them.
Ensure that nothing becomes
trapped in them as they move.

80Storage● Do not place any objects on theload 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 vehicle.
● The payload is the difference between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 224) and the EC kerb
weight.
To calculate the payload, enter
the data for your vehicle in the
weights table at the front of this
manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel
tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
● Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than
120 km/h.
The permissible roof load is
60 kg. The roof load is the
combined weight of the roof rack and the load.

steering wheel are heated quicker and to a higher temperature than the
other areas.
