Driving and operating115
Have the cause of the fault remedied
by a workshop.
Control indicator x 3 76.Cruise control
The cruise control can store and
maintain speeds above approx.
20 mph. Deviations from the stored
speeds may occur when driving uphill or downhill.
Do not use the cruise control if it is notadvisable to maintain a constant
speed.
Control indicator m 3 79.
Switching on
Turn end of lever to the ON position;
control indicator m illuminates in the
instrument cluster in conjunction with
a message in the Driver Information
Centre.
Activation Accelerate to the desired speed and
push lever upwards ( +); the current
speed is stored and maintained.
Accelerator pedal can be released.
Vehicle speed can be increased by
depressing the accelerator pedal. When the accelerator pedal is
released, the previously stored speed
is resumed.
Cruise control remains activated
while gearshifting.
Increase speed With cruise control active, push lever
upwards ( +) or briefly push lever
upwards ( +) repeatedly: speed
increases continuously or in small
increments.

116Driving and operating
Alternatively accelerate to the desiredspeed and store by pushing lever
upwards ( +).
Reduce speed
With cruise control active, push lever
downwards ( -) or briefly push lever
downwards ( -) repeatedly; speed
decreases continuously or in small
increments.
Deactivation
Automatic deactivation:
■ vehicle speed below approx. 20 mph,
■ the brake pedal is depressed,
■ the clutch pedal is depressed,
■ the traction control system/Anti-Slip
Regulator (ASR) or Electronic
Stability Program (ESP) is
operating.
Resume stored speed Press button = at a speed above
20 mph. The stored speed will be
obtained.Switching off
Turn end of lever to the OFF position;
control indicator m extinguishes. The
stored speed is deleted. Switching off the ignition also deletes the stored
speed.Object detection
systems
Parking assist
The parking assist makes parking
easier by measuring the distance between the vehicle and obstacles,
and giving acoustic signals. It is the
driver, however, who bears full
responsibility for the parking
manoeuvre.
The system consists of four ultrasonic parking sensors in the rear bumper.
Control indicator r 3 75.

120Driving and operating
indicator Y illuminates in the Driver
Information Centre 3 79 until the
ignition is switched off.
A slight loss of power and torque can be expected in petrol operation. You
must therefore adapt your driving style (e.g. during overtaking
manoeuvres) and vehicle loads (e.g.
towing loads) accordingly.
Every six months run the petrol tank
down until control indicator §
illuminates and then refuel. This is
necessary to maintain fuel quality as
well as system function necessary for
petrol operation.
Fill the tank completely at regular
intervals to prevent corrosion in the
tank.
Refuelling
Fuel filler flap is located at left rear
side of vehicle.9 Danger
Before refuelling, switch off engine
and any external heaters with
combustion chambers. Switch off
any mobile phones.
Follow the operating and safety
instructions of the filling station
when refuelling.
9 Danger
Fuel is flammable and explosive.
No smoking. No naked flames or
sparks.
If you can smell fuel in your
vehicle, have the cause of this
remedied immediately by a
workshop.
Caution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
Release the fuel filler flap by pulling
the flap by hand.
Insert key into fuel filler cap and turn
anticlockwise to unlock.
To remove fuel filler cap, rotate
anticlockwise.Caution
To avoid damage, do not attempt
to operate the sliding side door
when the fuel filler flap is open.
Notice
Depending on model, the sliding
side door may be fitted with a safety system that prevents the door from
being opened fully when the fuel
filler flap is open.
Sliding side door 3 23.

130Vehicle careBrakesA squealing noise, or illumination ofbrake pad wear control indicator F
indicates that the brake lining is at its
minimum thickness.
Continued driving is possible but
have the brake linings replaced as
soon as possible.
Once new brake linings are installed,
do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
Brake pad wear indicator F 3 75.
Brake fluid9 Warning
Brake fluid is poisonous and
corrosive. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, fabrics and painted surfaces.
The brake fluid level must be betweenthe MIN and MAX marks.
When topping up, ensure maximum cleanliness as contamination of the
brake fluid can lead to brake system
malfunctions. Have the cause of the
loss of brake fluid remedied by a
workshop.
Only use high-performance brake
fluid approved for the vehicle.
Brake and clutch fluid 3 159.
Battery
The vehicle battery is maintenance-
free provided that the driving profile
allows sufficient charging of the
battery. Short-distance-driving and
frequent engine starts can discharge
the battery. Avoid the use of
unnecessary electrical consumers.
Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.
Laying up the vehicle for more than
4 weeks can lead to battery
discharge. Disconnect the clamp from the negative terminal of the vehicle
battery.
Ensure the ignition is switched off
before connecting or disconnecting
the vehicle battery.

Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel.
Unscrew the valve cap.
Tyre pressure 3 174.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Always inflate the spare tyre to the
pressure specified for full load.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
The driver is responsible for correct
adjustment of tyre pressures.9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading to tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds.
Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm (4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons, it is
recommended that the tread depth of
the tyres on one axle should not vary
by more than 2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum
tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear
indicators (TWI). Their position is
indicated by markings on the
sidewall.
If there is more wear at the front than
the rear, swap round front wheels and
rear wheels periodically. Ensure that
the direction of rotation of the wheels
is the same as before.

Service information In order to ensure economical and
safe vehicle operation and to
maintain the value of your vehicle, it
is of vital importance that all
maintenance work is carried out at the proper intervals as specified.
The detailed, up-to-date service
schedule for your vehicle is available
at the workshop.
Service display 3 70.
Service intervals - petrol and
CNG engines Maintenance of your vehicle is
required every 18,000 miles or
2 years, whichever occurs first.
Service intervals - diesel
engines
Maintenance of your vehicle is
required every 21,000 miles or
2 years, whichever occurs first,
unless otherwise indicated in the
Driver Information Centre.Confirmations
Confirmation of service is recorded in the Service and Warranty Booklet.The date and mileage is completed
with the stamp and signature of the
servicing workshop.
Make sure that the Service and
Warranty Booklet is completed
correctly as continuous proof of
service is essential if any warranty or
goodwill claims are to be met, and is
also a benefit when selling the
vehicle.
Service interval with remaining engine oil life duration The service interval is based on
several parameters depending on
usage.
When the engine oil requires
changing, control indicator I will
flash in conjunction with a message in the Driver Information Centre 3 77.
