20Keys, doors and windowsRadio remote control
Used to operate:■ Central locking system 3 21
■ Anti-theft locking system 3 26
■ Power windows 3 29
The radio remote control has a range of up to 5 metres. It can be restricted
by external influences. The hazard
warning flashers confirm operation.
Handle with care, protect from
moisture and high temperatures and
avoid unnecessary operation.
Fault
If the central locking system cannot
be operated with the radio remote
control, it may be due to the following:
■ Range exceeded
■ Battery voltage too low
■ Frequent, repeated operation of the
radio remote control while not in
range
■ Overload of the central locking system by operating at frequent
intervals, the power supply is
interrupted for a short time
■ Interference from higher-power radio waves from other sources
Unlocking 3 21.
Radio remote control battery replacement
Replace the battery as soon as the
range reduces.Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.
Key with foldaway key section

Lighting95Lighting featuresBattery discharge
protection
To ensure reliable engine restarts,
several battery discharge protection
features are implemented as part of
the stop-start system.
Stop-start system 3 105.

Driving and operating103Starting and operating
New vehicle running-in Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system.
Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period fuel and
engine oil consumption may be
higher and the cleaning process of the diesel particle filter may take
place more often. Autostop may be inhibited to allow for charging the
battery.

104Driving and operating
Before restarting or to switch off the
engine, turn the key back to position
STOP .
Autostop
During an Autostop, the engine is restarted automatically by depressing
the clutch pedal.
Vehicles with manual transmission
automated (MTA): Shift to a forward
gear, release brake pedal or move lever to +, – or R to enable an
automatic restart.
Stop-start system 3 105.
Starting the vehicle at low
temperatures The start of the engine without
additional heaters is possible down to
-25 °С for diesel engines and -30 °C
for petrol engines. Required is an engine oil with the correct viscosity,
the correct fuel, performed services
and a sufficiently charged battery.Turbo engine warm-up
Upon start-up, engine available
torque may be limited for a short time,
especially when the engine
temperature is cold. The limitation is
to allow the lubrication system to fully protect the engine.
Vehicle shutdown
Fuel cut-off system In the event of a collision of a certain
severity, the fuel system is cut-off and
the engine is switched off
automatically, for safety reasons.
Depending on version, a
corresponding warning message may
also appear in the Driver Information Centre 3 80.
Notice
In addition, the vehicle is
automatically unlocked and the
interior lights are illuminated.
Turn the ignition key to position
STOP to prevent battery discharge
and seek the assistance of a
workshop immediately. Have thevehicle checked for fuel leaks in the
engine compartment, beneath the
vehicle and near the fuel tank.
To reset the fuel cut-off system and
enable the vehicle to be driven:
1. Turn the ignition key to position MAR 3 103
2. Fully actuate the right turn signal light 3 91
3. Deactivate the right turn signal light
4. Fully actuate the left turn signal light
5. Deactivate the left turn signal light
6. Repeat steps 2, 3, 4 and 5.
7. Turn the ignition key to position STOP .9Danger
If you can smell fuel in the vehicle,
or a fuel leak is present, have thecause of this remedied

Driving and operating105immediately by a workshop. Do
not reset the fuel cut-off system, to avoid the risk of fire.
Fuel system messages 3 86.
Overrun cut-off
The fuel supply is automatically cut-
off during overrun, i.e. when the
vehicle is driven with a gear engaged but accelerator is released.
Stop-start system The stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce exhaust emissions.
When conditions allow, it switches off the engine as soon as the vehicle is
at a low speed or at a standstill, e.g.
at a traffic light or in a traffic jam. It
starts the engine automatically as
soon as the clutch is depressed.
A battery sensor ensures that an
Autostop is only performed if the
battery is sufficiently charged for a
restart.
Activation
The stop-start system is available as
soon as the engine is started, the
vehicle starts-off and the conditions
as stated below in this section are
fulfilled.
Deactivation
Deactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing the ^ button in
the centre console. LED in the button
illuminates to confirm deactivation.
Depending on version, a
corresponding message may also appear in the Driver Information
Centre 3 80.
Autostop
If the vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
■ Depress the clutch pedal
■ set the lever to neutral
■ release the clutch pedal
The engine will be switched off while
the ignition stays on.
An Autostop is indicated when control indicator ^ flashes in the Driver
Information Centre 3 80.
