Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)*Description and important information The auxiliary heating (auxiliary he
ating and ventilation) heats or
supplies the interior of the vehicl
e with fresh air independent of the
engine.Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) functions in connection with the Climatic or Climatronic. It can be used when stationary, when engi
ne is switched off for preheating of the
vehicle as well as while driving (only during the heating phase of the engine). The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) wa
rms up the coolant during the combustion
of fuel from the vehicle tank. The coolant warms up the air, which (if the blower speed is not set to zero) flows into the occupant compartment. Auxiliary ventilation The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by switching off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively decreased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).

To lock the steering
, with the ignition key withdrawn, turn the steering wheel until the
steering locking pin is heard to
engage. You should always lock the steering as a general
rule if you leave your vehicle. This acts as
a deterrent against possible theft of your
vehicle
⇒
.
Position

Move the steering wheel back and forward a little if the ignition key cannot, or cannot easily be turned into this position, in order to release the steering lock. Position

The engine is started in this position. At the same time, major electrical components are switched off for short periods. The igni
tion key moves back into position when
one releases the key. The ignition key must be turned back into
position each time before starting the
engine again. The starter repeat lock in th
e ignition lock prevents the starter being
engaged when the engine is r
unning and thus getting damaged.
Ignition key withdrawal lock (automatic gearbox) You can only withdraw the ignition key after switching off the ignition if the selector lever is in position
P.
WARNING
•
When driving, the ignition key must always be in the position (ignition
switched on) without the engine running. This position is indicated by the warning lights coming on. If this is not the case, it could result in unexpected locking of the steering wh
eel - risk of accident!
•
Only remove the ignition key from the ignition lock when the vehicle has
come to a standstill (by applying the handbrake or moving the selector lever into the position P). The
steering lock can engage imme
diately - risk of acci-
dent!
•
Always withdraw the ignition key if yo
u are going to leave the vehicle, even
for a short time. This is particularly important if children are left in the vehicle. The children might otherwise start the engi
ne or switch on el
ectrical equipment
(e.g. power windows) - risk of accident or injury!Starting the engineGeneral You can only start the engine only using an original ignition key.•
Place the gearshift lever into neutral (or
place the selector lever to the position
P or
N in the case of an automatic gearbox) and put on the handbrake firmly before starting the engine.•
The clutch pedal should be fully depressed when starting the engine - the starter
then only has to crank the engine.•
Let go of the key as soon as the engine starts otherwise there may be damage to
the starter. The engine running noises may louder at first be louder for a short time after starting the cold engine until oil pressure can be
built up in the hydraulic valve clearance
compensation. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem. If the engine does not start ... You can use the battery of anothe
r vehicle as a jump-start aid
⇒page 229.
It is only possible to tow-start vehicles fi
tted with a manual gearbox. The tow-starting
distance must not be more than 50 metres
⇒page 231.
WARNING
•
Never run the engine in non ventilated
or enclosed areas. The exhaust gases
of the engine contain besides the odorless and colourless carbon monoxide a poisonous gas - hazard! Carbon mono
xide can cause unconsciousness and

Never leave your vehicle unattended with the engine running.Caution
•
The starter may only be operated (ignitio
n key position ), if the engine is not
running. If the starter is immedi
ately operated after switchin
g off the engine, the starter
or the engine can be damaged.•
Avoid high engine revolutions, full throttle and high engine loads as long as the
engine has not yet reached its normal oper
ating temperature - risk of damaging the
engine!•
Vehicles which are fitted with an exhaust gas catalytic converter should not be tow-
started over a distance of more than 50 metres.
For the sake of the environment
Never warm up the engine when the vehicle
is standing. Drive off right away. Through
this the engine reaches its operating temperature more rapidly and the pollutant emis- sions are lower.Petrol enginesThese engines are fitted with a starter system which selects the correct fuel-air mixture for every external air temperature.•
Do not operate accelerator before and when starting engine.
•
Interrupt the attempt at starting after 10
seconds if the engine does not start right
awayand wait for about 30 seconds before repeating the attempt.•
It is possible that the fuse on the electric
al fuel pump is defect if the engine still
does not start. Check the fuse and replace it if necessary

Contact the nearest specialist garage to obtain professional assistance.
It may be necessary, if the engine is
very hot
, to slightly depress the accelerator after
the engine has started.
Diesel enginesGlow plug system Diesel engines are equipped with a glow plug system, the preglow period being controlled automatically in
line with the coolant temperature and outside tempera-
ture. The preglow indicator light
 comes on after the ignition has been switched on.
You should not switch on any major electrical components during the heating period otherwise the vehicle battery
will be drained unnecessarily.
•
You should start the engine immediately after the glow plug warning light
 has
gone out.•
The glow plug warning light will come on for about one second if the engine is at a
normal operating temperature or if the outside temperature is above +5°C. This means that you can start the engine
right away

•
The brake booster only operates when
the engine is running. Greater phys-
ical effort for braking is required when en
gine is switched off. Because if you do
not stop as normal, this can cause an accident and severe injuries.
Caution
you should not switch the engine off right
away at the end of your journey after the
engine has been operated for a lengthy period
at high loads but should be allowed it
to run at idling speed for
about 2 minutes. This prevents any accumulation of heat
when the engine is switched off.
Note
•
The radiator fan may continue running fo
r a further 10 minutes or so after the
engine and the ignition have been switched
off. The coolant fan may, however, also
switch on again after some time if the co
olant temperature rises because of an accu-
mulation of heat in the engine or if the engine is warm and the engine compartment is additionally heated
by strong sunlight.
•
This is why particular care is required
when carrying out any work in the engine
compartment
⇒page 204, “Working in the engine compartment”.
Shifting (manual gearbox)
Shift into reverse only when the vehicle is
stationary. Depress the clutch pedal and hold
it fully depressed. Wait a mo
ment before engaging reverse gear in order to avoid any
shift noises. The reversing lights will come on once reverse gear is engaged, provided the ignition is on.
WARNING
Never engage the reverse gear when driving - risk of accident!
Note
•
One should not lay the hand on the shift lever while driving the vehicle. The pres-
sure of the hand will be transferred to the gearshift forks in the gearbox. This can, over a period of time, lead to earl
y wear of the gearshift forks.

•
Please note that the handbrake must be fully released. A handbrake which
is only partially released can result in the rear brakes overheating which will have a negative effect on the operation of
the brake system - risk of accident! In
addition this can result in premature wear of the rear brake pads.•
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle. The children might, for
example, release the handbrake or take
the vehicle out of gear. The vehicle
might then move off - risk of accident!
Caution
After the car has come to a stop, always firs
t of all apply the handbrake firmly before
then additionally engaging a gear (manual gearbox) or moving the selector lever into position
P (automatic gearbox).
Rear parking aid*The parking aid provides a warning
of obstacles behind the vehicle.
The audible parking aid determines the di
stance between the rear bumper and an
obstacle located behind the ve
hicle with the aid of ultras
ound sensors. The tones of
the parking aid can be adapted in th
e menu of the information display*
⇒page 27.
The sensors are integrated in the rear bumper. Range of sensors The clearance warning begins at a distance
of about 160 cm from the obstacle (area
⇒ fig. 117
). The interval between the warning signals becomes shorter as the clear-
ance is reduced. A continuous tone sounds from
a distance of approx. 30
cm (area ) - danger area.
You should not reverse any further after this signal sounds!
If the vehicle is
equipped with a factory-fitted
towing device*, the border of the danger area starts,
continuous tone, 5 cm furt
her behind the vehicle. Th
e vehicle can be extended
through an installed deta
chable towing device.
On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted
radio* or navigation system*, the distance
to the obstruction is shown graphically in the display. On vehicles with a factory-fitted towing device, the sensors are deactivated when towing a trailer. The driver is informed about this by a graphic display (vehicle towing
a trailer) in the radio* or the navigation*
display. The radio* or navigation system*, which is factory-fitted, can be set so that the play function volume decreases when acti
vating the parking ai

WARNING
•
The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
it is always the driver's responsibility to
take care when reversing the vehicle or
carrying out similar manoeuvres.•
You should therefore satisfy yourself, befo
re reversing, that there is no small
obstacle, such as a rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., in front or behind your vehicle. Such an obstacle might not be
within the range dete
cted by the sensors.
•
Under certain circumstances, surfaces
of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of th
e parking aid. Thus, these objects or
people who wear such clothing are not re
cognised by the sensors of the parking
aid.
Note
•
Only the front parking aid operates if yo
u are towing a trailer (applies only to
models which feature a factory-fitted towing device*).•
If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seco
nds after activating the system and there
is no obstacle close to your
vehicle, this indicates a system fault. The fault is confirmed
additionally when the symbol flashes in the button
⇒page 114, fig. 118
. Have the
fault rectified by a specialist workshop.•
The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to operate
properly.
•
If the parking aid is activated and the sele
ctor lever of the automatic gearbox is in
the position , warning signal indicates inte
rruption (vehicle can no longer move).
Park Assist*Description and important informationThe park assist assists you when parking in a suitable parallel parking space between two vehicles or
behind a vehicle.
The park assist automatically searches for
suitable parking spaces
after switching on
the ignition and when driving up to 30 km/h. During the parking procedure the park assist only takes over the steering movements, the pedals continue to be operated by the driver. Function of the system is based on:•
Length and depth measurement of the parking spaces when driving
•
Evaluation of the size of the parking space
•
Definition of the correct position of the vehicle for parking
•
Calculating the line on which the vehicle drives backwards into the parking space
•
Actuation of the steering force assistance, automatic spinning of the wheels of the
front axle when parking.
WARNING
The park assist does not take away the responsability from the driver when parking.•
Pay particular attention to small children and animals as they would not be
recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.•
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of the park assist or the parking aid. Thus, these objects or people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.

The external sound source of the park
assist and the parking aid can be
disruptively influenced and under unfavourable conditions, objects or people cannot be recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.
Caution
•
If other vehicles are parked behind or on
the kurb, the park assist guides your
ve hicle be yond the kurb or onto it. Make s ure that the whee ls or the whe el rims of yo ur vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.•
You should satisfy yourself before parking that there is no small obstacle, such as a
rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., in front
or behind your vehicle. Such an obstacle
might not be within the range detected by the sensors.•
Under certain circumstances, surfaces or st
ructures of certain objects such as wire
mesh fences, powder snow etc..., ca
nnot be recognised by the system.
•
The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depends on the
circumference of the wheels. The system does not function correctly if your vehicle is mounted with wheels of non-permissible
size, snow chains or a temporary spare
wheel (in order to reach the nearest workshop). If the tyres other than those excepted by the manufacturer are mounted, the resulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. The parking assistant system automatically performs the correction of the wheel circumference when driving.•
The accuracy of the evaluation for the parking space can be influenced by the
incorrectly determined outside temperature if
the later is influenced by the thermal
radiation of the engine i.e for stop and go in a traffic jam.•
In order to avoid damaging th
e sensors while cleaning wi
th high-pressure cleaners
or steam jets, the sensors must only be
directly sprayed for short periods while a
minimum distance of 10 cm must be observed.
Note
•
A component of the park assist is the front and rear parking aid*.
•
The electronic stability programme (ESP*)
must always be switched on for the
parking procedure.
•
Only the front parking aid operates if yo
u are towing a trailer (applies only to
models which feature a factory-fitted towing de
vice*). This is why it is not possible to
park backwards with the help of the
park assist when towing a trailer.
•
The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to operate
properly.Switch on display of the park a
