secure items against slippage, e.g.
using lashing straps or a luggage floor
net.
Two additional lashing eyes are
located in front of the rear seats.
Designed for carrying small, light
items only, a luggage floor net helps keep loads from moving during sharp turns or quick starts and stops.
To install: attach the four net hooks to
the lashing eyes mounted on the load
compartment floor.

Storage71Roof rack system
Roof rack For safety reasons and to avoiddamage to the roof, the vehicle
approved roof rack system is
recommended. For further
information contact a workshop.
Fasten the roof rack to the roof rails following the instructions that
accompany the system, ensuring that
the roof load is evenly distributed over the side or cross rails.
Loads must not be placed on the roof
surface. To prevent damage or loss,
check frequently that roof loads are
securely fastened.
Driving with a roof load affects the
vehicle centre of gravity; drive
carefully in crosswinds and do not
drive at high speeds.
Remove the roof rack when not in use.Loading information
â– Heavy objects in the load compartment should be evenly
distributed and placed as far
forward as possible. Ensure the
backrests are securely engaged. If
objects can be stacked, the heavier
objects should be placed at the bottom.
With rear seats in the folded
position, objects must not be
stacked higher than the seat
backrests.
â– Secure objects with lashing straps attached to lashing eyes 3 70.
â– Secure loose objects in the load compartment, e.g. with a luggage
floor net, to prevent sliding.
â– When transporting objects in the load compartment, the backrests ofthe rear seats must not be angled
forward.
â– Do not allow the load to protrude above the upper edge of the
backrests.â– Do not place any objects on the load compartment cover or the
instrument panel, and do not cover
the sensor on top of the instrument
panel.
â– The load must not obstruct the operation of the pedals, electrical
parking brake and gear selector, or hinder the freedom of movement ofthe driver. Do not place any
unsecured objects in the interior.
â– Do not drive with an open load compartment.9 Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or vehicle.
â– The payload is the difference between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 201) and the EC kerb
weight.
Page 74 of 223

72Storage
To calculate the EC kerb weight,
enter the data for your vehicle in the
Weights table at the front of this
manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (tank
90 % full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
â– Driving with a roof load increases the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a detrimental
effect on vehicle handling due to the vehicle's higher centre of
gravity. Distribute the load evenly
and secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure and
vehicle speed according to the load conditions. Check and retighten the
straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph.
The permissible roof load is
100 kg. The roof load is the
combined weight of the roof rack
and the load.

132Driving and operating
transmission will automatically shift toa lower gear, even in manual mode,
to prevent the engine from stalling.
If a higher gear is selected when
vehicle speed is too low, or a lower
gear when vehicle speed is too high,
the shift is not executed.
In manual mode, no automatic
shifting to a higher gear takes place
at high engine revolutions.
Gears can be skipped by moving the
selector lever repeatedly at short
intervals.
After stopping, 1st gear is
automatically selected. When starting
on slippery surfaces, tip selector lever forwards to engage 2nd gear.
To move back to position D, move
selector lever back to the right.
Electronic driving
programmes â– Following a cold start, the operating
temperature programme increasesengine speed to quickly bring the
catalytic converter to the required
temperature.Kickdown
In both automatic and manual modes, if the accelerator pedal is pressed
down completely the transmission
shifts to a lower gear depending on
engine speed. Full engine power is
available for acceleration.
Fuel economy mode
Activate fuel economy mode to allow
the transmission to adapt gearshift
patterns, improving the vehicle's fuel
economy.
Activation
In automatic mode, press button
s ; control indicator s
illuminates in the instrument cluster 3 90.
The settings of certain electronic
systems are adapted to reduce fuel
consumption:
â– The engine reacts less quickly to the accelerator pedal.
â– Automatic upshift points occur sooner and downshift points occur
later.
â– The transmission locks itself to the engine at cruising speeds, to
improve efficiency and increase
power and torque.
â– The fuel supply is automatically cut-
off more quickly during vehicle
deceleration. Overrun cut-off
3 125.
Do not use fuel economy mode whilst towing, e.g. a trailer.
