In brief19Stop-start system
If the vehicle is at low speed or in
standstill and certain conditions are
fulfilled, activate an Autostop as
follows:
● Depress the clutch pedal.

Stop-start system 3 132.
Parking9 Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply parking brake without pressing release
button. Apply as firmly as
possible on a downhill slope or
uphill slope. Depress brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
● Close the windows.
● Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch. Turn the
steering wheel until the
steering wheel lock is felt to
engage.
● Lock the vehicle by pressing e on
the remote control 3 23.
● Activate the anti-theft alarm system 3 33.
● The engine cooling fans may run
after the engine has been
switched off 3 171.
Caution
After running at high engine
speeds or with high engine loads,
operate the engine briefly at a low load or run in neutral for approx.30 seconds before switching off, in
order to protect the turbocharger.

130Driving and operatingStarting and operating
New vehicle running-in
Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys and after new
disc brake pads have been fitted.
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 and the cleaning process of
the diesel particle filter may take
place more often. Autostop may be
inhibited to allow for charging the
vehicle battery.

turn steering wheel until it engages.
9 Danger
Never remove the key from
ignition switch during driving as
this will cause steering wheel lock.
Starting the engine
Manual transmission: operate clutch.
Manual transmission automated:
operate brake; transmission
automatically shifts to N.
Do not accelerate.
Page 133 of 255

Driving and operating131Turn the key to position 2 for
preheating, and hold until control
indicator N extinguishes from the
Driver Information Centre.
Turn key to position 3 and release.
The increased engine speed
automatically returns to normal idling
speed as the engine temperature
rises.
Start attempts should not last longer than 15 seconds. If engine does not
start, wait 15 seconds before
repeating starting procedure. If
necessary, depress accelerator
before repeating starting procedure.
Before restarting or to switch off the
engine, turn key back to 0.
During an Autostop, the engine can
be started by depressing the clutch
pedal. Stop-start system 3 132.
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.Idle speed control
To increase the idle speed press the
switch. After a few seconds the
function will be activated.
The function will be deactivated
when:
● The clutch pedal is depressed.
● The accelerator pedal is depressed.
● MTA is not in N (neutral).
● Vehicle speed is above 0 km/h. ● Control indicator A, W or C
illuminate in the instrument
cluster.
To increase or decrease the fast idle
speed rate, consult a workshop.
Note
When the fast idle function is
activated, the stop-start system is
automatically deactivated.
Stop-start system 3 132.
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.

132Driving and operatingStop-start systemThe stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emission. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as the
vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, e.g. at a traffic light or in a
traffic jam. It starts the engine
automatically as soon as the clutch is
depressed. A vehicle battery sensor
ensures that an Autostop is only
performed if the vehicle battery is
sufficiently charged for a restart.
Activation
The stop-start system is available as soon as the engine is started, the
vehicle starts-off and the conditions
as stated below in this section are
fulfilled.Deactivation
Deactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing Î.
Deactivation is indicated when the
LED in the button illuminates.
Note
When the fast idle function is
activated, the stop-start system is
automatically deactivated and
cannot be reactivated by pressing
Î . LED in button illuminates to
indicate deactivation and a
corresponding message may
appear in the Driver Information
Centre 3 98.
Idle speed control 3 131.
Autostop
If the vehicle is at low speed or
standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
● depress the clutch pedal
● shift the selector lever to neutral (manual transmission) or N
(manual transmission
automated)
● release the clutch pedal
The engine will be switched off while
the ignition stays on if the required conditions are met.
Page 135 of 255

Driving and operating133An Autostop is indicated when Ï
illuminates green in the instrument
cluster.
During an Autostop, the heating
performance, power steering and
brake performance will be
maintained. Brake assist, however, is
not available 3 151.
Note
If you exit the vehicle while the
engine is in an Autostop, a warning
chime will sound as a reminder that
the engine is on standby and has not been switched off.
Conditions for an Autostop
The stop-start system checks if each
of the following conditions is fulfilled,
otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited and control indicator \ will
illuminate in the instrument cluster.
● the stop-start system is not manually deactivated
● the bonnet is fully closed
● the driver's door is closed or the driver's seat belt is fastened
● the vehicle battery is sufficiently charged and in good condition● the engine is warmed up
● the engine coolant temperature is
not too high
● the ambient temperature is not too low
● the defrosting function is not activated
● the climate control system does not inhibit an Autostop
● the brake vacuum is sufficient ● the self-cleaning function of the diesel particle filter is not active
● the vehicle has moved since the last Autostop
Otherwise an Autostop will be
inhibited.
An Autostop may become
unavailable as the ambient
temperature approaches freezing
point.
Certain settings of the climate control system may also inhibit an Autostop.See "Climate control" chapter for
further information 3 112.
Immediately after motorway driving
an Autostop may be inhibited.Autostop may also be inhibited
temporarily if the vehicle battery has
been recharged by an external
source.
New vehicle running-in 3 130.
Vehicle battery discharge protection
To ensure reliable engine restarts,
several vehicle battery discharge
protection features are implemented
as part of the stop-start system.
Restart of the engine by the driver
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the
engine.
If the selector lever has been shifted
out of neutral (manual transmission)
or N (manual transmission
automated) or other conditions are
not met, start using the ignition key.
The green control indicator Ï will
extinguish in the instrument cluster
when the engine is restarted.
If the selector lever is shifted out of
neutral (manual transmission) or N
(manual transmission automated) before depressing the clutch first, a
restart will not take place.

Driving and operating145Manual transmission
To engage reverse, with the vehicle
stationary depress the clutch pedal, pull up the collar on the selector lever
and engage the gear.
If the gear does not engage, set the
lever to neutral, release the clutch
pedal and depress again; then repeat
gear selection.
Do not slip the clutch unnecessarily.
