The yellow warning
~ lamp remains on if the system is faulty or if
the pressure is too low in at least one tyre. In the event of a system
fault, the letters TPMS are displayed in the centre of the instrument
panel ⇒page 66, fig. 45 . If the tyre pressure drops rapidly,
message ⇒page 66, fig. 46 will be shown on the central display
of the instrument panel. If the pressure loss is more gradual,
message ⇒page 66, fig. 46 will be shown on the central display
of the instrument panel. This message does not show the tyre
affected. Should any of these warnings be displayed:
–Stop the vehicle.
– Check the tyres. Although the warning corresponds to just one tyre, you should also check the others.
– Correct the tyre pressure ⇒page 246.
For more detailed information on the tyre pressure monitoring system, please
refer to ⇒page 245.Cruise control system*

The indicator lamp
 on the instrument panel lights up when the cruise
control system is operating.
Trailer turn signals*

This turn signal lamp flashes when the turn signals are oper-
ating while towing a caravan or trailer.The turn signal lamp
 flashes when the turn signals are operated if a trailer
is correctly coupled to the vehicle.
Where a turn signal bulb does not work, either on the trailer or on the towing
vehicle, the turn signal bulb will not flash.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
J
The warning lamp monitors the ABS and the integrated elec-
tronic differential lock (EDL).The warning lamp
J lights up for a few seconds when the ignition is
switched on and while the engine is being started. The lamp goes out again
after the system has run through an automatic test sequence.
There is a fault in the ABS if:
•The warning lamp does not light up when the ignition is switched on•The warning lamp does not go out again after a few seconds•The warning lamp lights up when the vehicle is moving
The vehicle can still brake in the normal way (except that the ABS control func-
tion is out of action). Please take the vehicle to a qualified workshop as soon
as possible. For further information on the ABS, see ⇒ page 192.
If a malfunction should occur in the ABS, the ESP warning lamp will also light
up.

68Entire brake system fault
If the ABS warning lamp
J lights up together with the brake warning lamp
H ⇒ page 70 (with the handbrake released), this indicates not only a fault
in the ABS function, but probably also a malfunction in the main brake system
⇒ .
The symbol
H will light up in the instrument panel if a fault occurs in the
brake system . Please refer to ⇒page 77.
Electronic differential lock (EDL) fault
The EDL works in conjunction with the ABS. The ABS indicator lamp will light
up
J to indicate an EDL fault. Please take the vehicle to a qualified workshop
as soon as possible. For further information on the EDL, see ⇒page 193.WARNING
•Before opening the bonnet and checking the brake fluid level, observe
the warning information in ⇒page 229, “Work in the engine compart-
ment”.•If the brake warning lamp
H should light up together with the ABS
warning lamp
J, stop the vehicle immediately and check the brake fluid
level in the reservoir. If the fluid level has dropped below the "MIN" mark
you must not drive on, as there is a risk of accident. Obtain technical assist-
ance.
•If the brake fluid level is correct, the fault in the brake system may have
been caused by a fault in the ABS control function. As a result, the rear
wheels can lock relatively easily when braking. Under certain circum-
stances, the rear of the vehicle could suddenly sway from side to side, with
the subsequent danger of skidding. Drive carefully to the nearest special-
ised workshop and have the fault repaired.
Seat belt warning lamp*
h
The warning lamp acts as a reminder to the driver to fasten
the seat belt.After switching on the ignition, the warning lamp
 will remain lit until the
driver and front passenger (if applicable) have fastened their seat belts.
When the vehicle has reached a certain speed, you will also hear a warning
signal and the warning light will flash.
For further information on the seat belts, see ⇒page 22.
Turn signals and hazard warning lights

Depending on which turn signal is operated, either the left
 or right

turn
signal lamp flashes. Both turn signal lamps will flash when the hazard
warning lights are switched on.
If a turn signal fails, the indicator lamp will start flashing twice as fast as
normal.
This does not apply when towing a trailer. Where a turn signal bulb does not
work, either on the trailer or on the towing vehicle, the turn signal bulb will
not flash. For further information on the turn signals, see ⇒page 123.

•It will start flashing to indicate that ESP is counteracting an unstable
driving condition.•It lights up when the ignition is switched on for approx. 2 seconds while
the function is checked.•The warning lamp will light up if there is a malfunction in the ESP.•It will light up after the battery has been disconnected.•The warning lamp will light up if the ESP is switched off.•It will also come on if a fault should occur in the ABS because the ESP
operates in conjunction with the ABS.
If the ESP warning lamp lights up and stays on after the engine is started, this
may mean that the control system has temporarily switched off the ESP. In this
case the ESP can be reactivated by switching the ignition off and then on
again. After this the warning lamp should go out to show that the system is
fully functional.
The warning lamp will light up when the ignition is switched on if the battery
has been disconnected and then reconnected. It should go out again after
driving a short distance if the steering wheel is turned slightly.
For further information on the ESP, see ⇒page 193.Alternator

WARNING
•Before opening the bonnet and checking the brake fluid level, observe
the warning information in ⇒page 229, “Work in the engine compart-
ment”.•If the brake warning lamp does not go out, or if it lights up when
driving, the brake fluid level in the reservoir is too low and this may cause
an increased accident risk. Stop the vehicle and do not drive on. Obtain
technical assistance.•If the brake warning lamp lights up together with the ABS warning
lamp, this can mean that there is a fault in the ABS control function. As a
result, the rear wheels can lock relatively easily when braking. Under
certain circumstances, the rear of the vehicle could suddenly sway from
side to side, with the subsequent dang er of skidding. Drive carefully to the
nearest specialised workshop and have the fault repaired.

WARNING
•For correct visibility and safe driving, the wiper must be in perfect
condition ⇒page 218. Failure to do so could result in an accident.•The rain sensor* is only intended to assist the driver. The driver is still
obliged to manually operate the windscreen wipers as required depending
on visibility.•Do not use water-repellent coatings on the windscreen. In bad visibility
conditions such as light rain, low sun or when driving at night, these coat-
ings can cause increased dazzle, which is a serious safety hazard. Such
coatings can also cause the wiper blades to make noise.Caution
•In the event of frost, check that the wiper blade has not frozen before acti-
vating the windscreen wipers. Should the windscreen wiper system be
enabled when the blade is frozen, this could damage it or even the wind-
screen wiper system motor.

The Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) contains the electronic differential
lock (EDL) and the traction control system (TCS). The ESP function works
together with the ABS. If a fault in the ABS occurs, both warning lamps light
up, but if the ESP fails, only the ESP warning lamp lights up.
The ESP is started automatically when the engine is started.
The ESP switch deactivates both TCS and ESP functions. The ESP, in spite of
being deactivated, will always self-connect when necessary if brakes are
being used.
The TCS can be deactivated when in cases where wheel sliding is desirable.
For example:
•When driving with snow chains,•when driving in deep snow or on loose surfaces,•when rocking the vehicle backwards and forwards to free it from mud, for
example.
Next, the button should be pressed to reactivate the TCS.
When does the warning lamp switch on or flash?•On switching the ignition on, it lights up for about two seconds to carry
out a function control.•The warning lamp will start flashing when the vehicle is moving if the ESP
or the TCS is activated.•It will light up continuously if there is a malfunction in the ESP.WARNING
•The Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) cannot defy the laws of
physics. This should be kept in mind, particularly on slippery and wet
roads and when towing a trailer.•Always adapt your driving style to suit the condition of the roads and
the traffic situation. Do not let the extra safety afforded by ESP tempt you
into taking any risks when driving, as this can cause accidents.
•Please refer to the corresponding warning notes on ESP in ⇒page 191,
“Intelligent technology”.

Driving
174Switching on the ignition/pre-heating glow plugs
If the key is difficult to turn in the lock, move the steering wheel (to take the
load off the steering lock mechanism) until the key turns freely. In the case of
vehicles with a diesel engine, the key is turned to this position to preheat the
glow plugs.
Starting the engine
The engine is started in this position. Electrical components with a high
power consumption are switched off temporarily.
After the engine has started, the ignition key returns to position by itself.
The ignition key has to be turned back to position before re-starting the
engine. The starter inhibitor in the ignition lock prevents the starter motor
from engaging when the engine is running, as this could cause damage.
Switching off the ignition
Turn the ignition key to this position.
WARNING
•Never remove the ignition key until the vehicle is stationary! Otherwise
