2624-1. DRIVING TIPS
perforated brake discs can emit
functional noises. However,
functional noises have no effect
on the performance and opera-
tional reliability of the brake.
When roads are wet, salted, or
in heavy rain, gently press the
brake pedal every few miles.
Ensure that this action does not
endanger other traffic.
The heat generated during brak-
ing dries brake discs and brake
pads and protects them against
corrosion.
In this way braking efficiency will
be available when you need it.
■General information
Drive long or steep downhill gra-
dients in the gear that requires
least braking effort. Otherwise,
the brakes may overheat and
reduce brake efficiency.
You can increase the engine's
braking effect by shifting down,
going all the way to first gear, if
needed.
■Safety information
Corrosion on the brake discs
and contamination on the brake
pads are increased by the fol-
lowing circumstances:
Low mileage.
Extended periods when the
vehicle is not used at all.
Objects in the area around
the pedals
WARNING
Objects in the dri
ver's floor area
can limit the peda l distance or
block a depressed pedal. There is
a risk of an accident. Stow objects
in the vehicle such that they are
secured and cannot enter into the
driver's floor area. Use floor mats
that are suitable for the vehicle
and can be safely attached to the
floor. Do not use loose floor mats
and do not layer several floor
mats. Make sure that there is suf-
ficient clearance for the pedals.
Ensure that the floor mats are
securely fastened again after they
were removed, fo r instance for
cleaning.
Driving in wet conditions
Hills
WARNING
Light but consis tent brake pres-
sure can lead to high tempera-
tures, brakes wearing out and
possibly even brake failure. There
is a risk of an accident. Avoid
placing excessive stress on the
brake system.
WARNING
In idle state or with the engine
switched off, safety functions, for
instance engine braking effect,
braking assistance and steering
assistance, may not be available.
There is a risk of accident. Do not
attempt to drive in idle state or
with the engine switched off.

3005-1. MOBILITY
This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures that are not necessarily
available in your vehicle, for
instance, due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
Depending on the region, many
gas stations sell fuel that has
been customized to winter or
summer conditions. Fuel that is
available in winter,for instance
helps make a cold start easier.
For the best fuel consumption,
the gasoline should be sul-
fur-free or very low in sulfur con-
tent.
Fuels that are marked on the gas pump as containing metal
must not be used.
Fuels with a maximum ethanol
content of 25 %, i. e. E10 or
E25, may be used for refueling.
To achieve nominal values for
mileage and consumption, fol-
low the specified fuel quality in
the sales literature.
Ethanol should meet the follow-
ing quality standards:
US: ASTM 4806–xx
CAN: CGSB-3.511–xx
xx: comply with the current valid
standard in each case.
The use of fuels of minimum
quality has no influence on the
service life of the engine.

WARNING
The use of poor-quality fuels may
result in harmful engine deposits
or damage. Additionally, problems
relating to drivability, starting and
stalling, especially under certain
environmental conditions such as
high ambient temperature and
high altitude, may occur.
