8Safe driving
The safety equipment mentioned above works together to provide you and
your passengers with the best possible protection in the event of an acci-
dent. However, these safety systems can only be effective if you and your
passengers are sitting in a correct position and use this equipment proper-
ly.
Therefore, information is provided about why this equipment is so impor-
tant, how it protects you, what you have to consider when using it and how
you and your passengers can achieve the greatest possible benefit from the
safety equipment fitted. This manual includes important warnings that you
and your passengers should note in order to reduce the risk of injury.
Safety is everyone's business!
Before starting every trip
The driver is always responsible for the safety of the passen-
gers and the safe operation of the vehicle.
For your own safety and the safety of your passengers, always note
the following points before every trip:
– Make sure that the vehicle's lights and turn signals are working
properly.
– Check tyre pressure.
– Ensure that all windows provide a clear and good view of the
surroundings.
– Make sure all luggage is secured ⇒ page 17.
– Make sure that no objects can interfere with the pedals. –
Adjust front seat, head restraint and rear vision mirrors properly
according to your size.
– Ensure that the passengers in the rear seats always have the
head restraints in the in-use position ⇒ page 15
– Instruct passengers to adjust the head restraints according to
their height.
– Protect children with appropriate child seats and properly ap-
plied seat belts ⇒ page 46.
– Assume the correct sitting position. Instruct your passengers al-
so to assume a proper sitting position. ⇒ page 10.
– Fasten your seat belt securely. Instruct your passengers also to
fasten their seat belts properly. ⇒ page 20.
What affects driving safety?
Driving safety is largely determined by your driving style
and the personal behaviour of all vehicle occupants.
As a driver, you are responsible for yourself and your passengers.
When your concentration or driving safety is affected by any cir-
cumstance, you endanger yourself as well as others on the road
⇒
, for this reason:
– Always pay attention to traffic and do not get distracted by pas-
sengers or telephone calls.
– Never drive when your driving ability is impaired (e.g. by medi-
cation, alcohol, drugs).

If the front passenger airbag has been disabled with the airbag switch loca-
ted in the storage compartment side:
● When the ignition is turned on, the warning light switches on for
around 4 seconds.
● The airbag is disabled, signalled with the warning lamp which
lights up with the word placed in the centre part of the
dash panel ⇒ Fig. 24 ⇒ page 44.
WARNING
When there is a fault in the airbag system, have an inspection carried out
by an Authorised Service. Otherwise the airbags may fail to trigger in an
accident.
Tyre pressure monitoring*
If the warning lamp lights up, the pressure of a tyre has decreased signif-
icantly. Check and adjust the pressure of all the tyres ⇒ page 196.
If the warning lamp flashes, there is a fault in the system.
Seek professional help.
Further information ⇒ page 201, Tyre pressure *.
Note
If the battery is disconnected the warning lamp lights up when the igni-
tion is switched on. This warning lamp must switch off after covering a short
distance. Windscreen washer fluid level
If the warning lamp lights up, the level of windscreen washer fluid in the
tank is very low. Fill the windscreen washer fluid ⇒ page 190, Windscreen
washer.
The informative display indicates:
Refill windscreen washer fluid!
Turn signals
Depending on the position of the turn signal lever the left warning lamp on
the left or right flashes.
If there is a turn signal fault the warning lamp flashes at approximately dou-
ble speed.
All the turn signals flash in addition to both warning lamps when the hazard
warning lights are switched on.
Further information ⇒ page 100, Turn signal and main beam lever.
Fog lights
The control lamp lights up when the fog lights are switched on
⇒ page 98.

Remote control synchronisation
If the vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked using the remote control, the
code of the key might not match that of the control unit. This can occur
when the remote control buttons are frequently pressed outside the range
of the system or if the remote control battery has been replaced.
In this case, it must be synchronised as follows:
● Press any key on the remote control key.
● Open the door using the key within the next minute.
Anti-theft alarm system* General notes
The anti-theft alarm system increases vehicle protection from intruders. If
the anti-theft alarm system senses interference with the vehicle it triggers
an audible and visible alarm.
Activating the alarm system
The anti-theft alarm switches on automatically when the vehicle is locked
using the remote control key or inserting the key in the driver door. The
alarm is activated around 30 seconds after the vehicle is locked.
Deactivating the alarm system
The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated when the remote control unlock
button is pressed. If the vehicle is not opened within 30 seconds after emit-
ting the radiofrequency signal, the system will be reactivated.
If the vehicle is unlocked using by inserting the key in the driver door, the
ignition must be switched on within 15 seconds. This deactivates the alarm system. If, during these 15 seconds, the vehicle is not started
, the alarm is
triggered.
When does the system trigger an alarm?
The following areas of the vehicle are monitored:
● Bonnet
● Rear lid
● Doors
● Ignition
● Tilt angle ⇒ page 92, Vehicle interior monitoring and tow-away protec-
tion system
● The interior ⇒ page 92, Vehicle interior monitoring and tow-away pro-
tection system
● Drop in voltage in the car systems
● The factory-fitted towing bracket
The alarm is triggered immediately if one of the battery cables is disconnec-
ted while the alarm system is active.
How to turn off the alarm
To deactivate the alarm, press the unlock button on the remote control key
or switch on the ignition.
Note
● The alarm horn power supply has a 5-year useful life. Contact an Official
Service for more detailed information.
● To make sure that the anti-theft alarm is fully operative when leaving the
vehicle, check that all the doors and windows are closed.
● Remote control and receiver unit coding means that the remote control
cannot be used on other vehicles.

Lights Introduction
The location of the controls of right-hand drive cars differs slightly from the
location shown here ⇒ Fig. 54 ⇒ page 97. However, the symbols indicat-
ing the respective positions of the controls remain the same.
WARNING
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright
enough to illuminate the road ahead and to ensure that other road users
are able to see you. Always use your dipped beam headlights if it is dark
or if visibility is poor.
CAUTION
● Use the lights in line with local law.
● However, drivers always remain responsible for correctly adjusting and
using the lights.
Note
● An audible warning will be heard when the light control is set to and
you remove the ignition key and open the door. Once the driver door is
closed (ignition off), the audible warning will stop, whereas the side lights
will remain on to light up the stationary vehicle if necessary.
● Depending on weather conditions (cold or wet), the lights may mist up
temporarily on the inside. This is particularly the case in the event of a dif-
ference in temperature between the inside and in front of the light. By
switching on the lights, the area through which the beam of light is projec- ted will quickly be demisted, although the edges may remain misted. The
real lights and turn signals can mist up. This has no influence on the useful
life of the lighting system.
