D e

scription and operation Fig. 170
In the lower part of the centre con-
so l

e: Auto Hold function button. The control light of the 

Fig. 170 button
remains on when the Auto Hold function is
connected. Once connected, the Auto Hold function as-
si

sts the driver in keeping the vehicle station-
ary at repeated intervals or for a certain peri-
od of time with the engine running, for exam-
ple, when going up a slope, when stopped at
traffic lights or in heavy traffic with intermit-
tent stops.
When connected, the Auto Hold function au-
tomatically prevents the vehicle from rolling
when stationary without pressing the brake
pedal.
After detecting that the vehicle is stationary
and the brake pedal has been released, the
Auto Hold function holds the vehicle. The
driver can lift their foot off the brake pedal.
When the driver touches the accelerator ped-
al or accelerates slightly to continue driving,
the Auto Hold function releases the brake.
The vehicle moves according to the slope of
the road.
If the vehicle is stationary and one of the con-
ditions required by the Auto Hold function is
impaired, it disconnects itself and the but-
ton's control light goes out ››› Fig. 170. The
electronic parking brake connects automati-
cally, if necessary, to park the vehicle safe-
ly ››› .
C ondition

s for keeping the vehicle stationary
with the Auto Hold function
● The driver door must be closed.
● The driver's seat belt must be fastened. »

Operation
CAUTION
● The c amer
a images are only two-dimen-
sional. Due to a lack of spatial depth, objects
that jut out or holes on the road, for example,
are more difficult to detect or may not be
seen at all.
● In certain circumstances, the camera does
not c
apture objects such as beams, fences,
posts or thin trees, which could damage the vehicle.
● The system displays the auxiliary lines and
box
es regardless of the vehicle's environ-
ment, no objects are detected. The driver is
responsible for determining that the vehicle
will fit in the parking space. CAUTION
In order to guarantee good system operation,
k eep the c

ameras clean, free of snow or ice,
and do not cover them with adhesives or oth-
er objects.
● Never use abrasive cleaning products to
cl

ean the camera lenses.
● Do not use hot or warm water to remove ice
or sno
w from the camera lenses. Doing so
could damage the lenses. Area View system

Advice
You may also notice that the engine runs at a
s lightly
faster idling speed when necessary.
This is quite normal, and no cause for con-
cern. The increased idling speed allows the
alternator to meet the greater power require-
ment and charge the battery at the same
time. Checking and refilling levels

Filling up Read the additional information carefully

›  page 48
If the automatic filler nozzle is operated cor-
rectly, it will switch itself off as soon as the
fuel tank is “full”. Do not try to put in more
fuel after the nozzle cuts out, as this will fill
the expansion chamber in the fuel tank.
The correct fuel grade for your vehicle is giv-
en on a sticker on the inside of the fuel tank
flap. Further notes on fuel can be found at
››› page 277.

 page 48. WARNING
Fuel is highly flammable and can cause seri-
ou s

burns and other injuries.
● When refuelling, turn off the engine, the
auxi
liary heater ››› page 161 and turn off the
ignition for safety reasons.
● Do not smoke when filling the fuel tank or a
cani
ster. Naked flames are forbidden in the
vicinity due to the risk of explosion. ●
Ob

serve legislation governing the use,
storage and carrying of a spare fuel canister
in the vehicle.
● For safety reasons we do not recommend
carr
ying a spare fuel canister in the vehicle.
In an accident the canister could be damaged
and could leak.
● If, in exceptional circumstances, you have
to c
arry a spare fuel canister, please observe
the following points:
– Never fill fuel into the spare fuel canister
if it is inside or on top of the vehicle. An
electrostatic charge could build up during
filling, causing the fuel vapour to ignite.
Danger of explosion. Always place the
canister on the ground to fill it.
– Insert the filling nozzle as far as possible
into the spare fuel canister.
– If the spare fuel canister is made of met-
al, the filling nozzle must be in contact
with the canister during filling. This
helps prevent an electrostatic charge
building up.
– Never spill fuel in the vehicle or in the
luggage compartment. Fuel vapour is ex-
plosive. Risk of fatal accident! CAUTION
● If an

y fuel is spilt onto the vehicle, it
should be removed immediately. It could oth-
erwise damage the paintwork.
● Never run the tank completely dry. An irreg-
ul

ar fuel supply could cause misfiring. As a 276
