Emergencies
Note
The vehicle can only be towed if the elec-
tronic parking brake and the el ectr
onic
lock of the steering column are deactiva-
ted. If the vehicle has no power supply or
there is an electric system fault, the engine
must be tow-started

right side of the r
ear bumper behind a lid

Operation
Road signs detection system* 1)Fig. 78
On the instrument panel display: ex-
ampl es of speed limits or o v
ert aking pr
ohibi-
tions with their respective additional signs. The traffic sign detection system records the
st
andar
d traffic signs in fr
ont of the v

ehicle
with a camera located on the base of the in-
terior mirror and provides information about
speed limits and overtaking prohibitions. Within its limitations, the system also displays
additional signals, such as time-specific pro-
hibitions, signs for vehicl

es towing trailers

Opening and closing
be done each time that the vehicle is locked;
if not, they will be aut omatically s
witched on.
The v ehicl
e interior monitoring and the anti-
tow system should be switched off if animals
are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise,
their movements will trigger the alarm) or
when, for example, the vehicle is transported
or has to be towed with only one axle on the
ground.
Deactivation through the infotainment
system

Operation
More the lever to the required position:
4 v
Short wipe. Brief press, short clean.
Hold the lev
er do
wn for more time to in-
crease the wipe frequency.
5 W
Windscreen washer. The windscreen
washer function is activated by push-
ing the le

ver towards the steering
wheel, and the wipers operate simulta-
neously.
6 
Interval wipe for rear window. The wip-
er will wipe the window approximat
ely
e

very six seconds.
7 \
The rear window wash function is acti-
vated by pressing the l
e

ver, and the
rear wiper starts simultaneously. WARNING
In cold conditions you should not use the
wash/wipe system unless you hav e
w

armed the windscreen with the heating
and ventilation system. The windscreen
washer fluid could otherwise freeze on the
windscreen and obscure your view of the
road. CAUTION
If the ignition is switched off with the wind-
screen wipers active, they compl et

e their
wipe before returning to the rest position.
When switching the ignition back on, the
windscreen wiper will continue to operate
at the same wiping level. Ice, snow and oth- er obstacles on the windscreen may dam-
age the wiper and the windscreen wiper
motor.

Air conditioning
The airflow is directed towards the wind-
scr een and the f
ootwell ar
ea.
Defr
ost/demist function 
Manual air conditioning: When control 3 is in
position  the air fl o
w is dir ect
ed at the wind-
scr

een and air recirculation is disconnected
automatically or not activated. Increase the
fan power to clear the windscreen of con-
densation as soon as possible. To dehumidify
the air, the cooling system will automatically
switch on.
Maximum cooling power

Braking and parking
Electronic differential lock (EDL)
When the EDL det ects wheel
spin, it brak
es
the spinning wheel and dir
ects the power to
the other driven wheel. This function is active
up to approximately 100 km/h (62 mph).
To prevent the disc brake of the braked wheel
from overheating, the EDL cuts out automati-
cally if subjected to excessive loads. The ve-
hicle can still be driven. The EDL will switch on
again automatically when the brake has
cooled down.
Tractor-trailer sway mitigation*
If the vehicle is pulling a trailer, it will control
the following: tractor-trailers tend to sway.
When the swaying of the trailer is felt by the
vehicle and detected by the ESC, it will auto-
matically brake the towing vehicle within the
limits of the system and mitigate the sway.
Tractor-trailer sway mitigation is not available
in all countries

Driving

Intr oduction Take into account country-specific regula-
tions about driving with a trailer and the use
of a to wing br
acket.
The vehicle has been developed primarily for
carrying people, although it can also be used
to tow a trailer if fitted with the corresponding
technical equipment. This additional load has
an effect on the useful life, fuel consumption
and vehicle performance and in some cases
can reduce the service intervals.
Driving with a trailer requires more force from
the vehicle, and thus more concentration
from the driver.
In winter, winter tyres should be fitted on both
the vehicle and the trailer.

ted on the coupling device
