automated, R flashes when the
driver's door is opened if no gear is engaged and the parking brake is not
applied.
Apply clutch pedal
- illuminates yellow.
Clutch pedal needs to be operated to start the engine.
Stop-start system 3 116.
Antilock brake system
(ABS) u illuminates red.
Illuminates for a few seconds after the ignition is turned on. The system is
ready for operation when the control indicator extinguishes.
If the control indicator does not go out after a few seconds, or if it illuminates while driving, there is a fault in the
ABS. The brake system remains
operational but without ABS
regulation.
Antilock brake system 3 128.Upshift
[ illuminates green when upshifting
is recommended for fuel saving
reasons.
Sport mode
1 illuminates yellow.
The symbol is illuminated when Sport mode is on 3 126.
Winter mode T illuminates yellow.
The symbol is illuminated when
Winter mode is on 3 121, 3 126.
Power steering
p illuminates yellow.
Fault in power steering system. The
power steering may have failed. The
vehicle can be steered but
considerably more force is required.
Contact a workshop.Ultrasonic parking assist
r illuminates or flashes yellow.
Illuminates
Fault in system. Have the cause of the fault remedied by a workshop.
Flashes Fault due to sensors that are dirty orcovered by ice or snow.
or
Interference due to external sources
of ultrasound. Once the source of interference is removed, the system
will operate normally.
Parking assist 3 132.
Electronic Stability
Program
v flashes or illuminates yellow.
Illuminates for a few seconds when
the ignition is switched on.

132Driving and operating
ActivationTurn switch m up and release: the
current speed is stored and
maintained.
Vehicle speed can be increased by depressing the accelerator pedal.
When the accelerator pedal is
released, the previously stored speed
is resumed.
The speed is saved until the ignition
is switched off.
To resume the saved speed, turn
switch g downwards at a speed
above 20 mph.
Increase speed With cruise control active, turn switchm upwards and hold, or turn briefly
several times: speed is increased
continuously or in small increments.
When switch m is released the
current speed is stored and
maintained.Reduce speed
With cruise control active, turn switch g downwards and hold, or turn briefly
several times: speed is reduced
continuously or in small increments.
When switch g is released the current
speed is stored and maintained.
Deactivation
Briefly press the § button: cruise
control is deactivated.
Automatic deactivation:
■ Vehicle speed below approx. 20 mph
■ The brake pedal is depressed
■ The clutch pedal is depressed
■ Selector lever in N.
To reset the saved speed, turn switch g downwards.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 82.
Activation
When reverse gear is engaged, the
system is activated automatically.

Driving and operating133
IndicationAn obstacle is indicated by a buzzing
sound. The interval between the sounds becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm, the buzzing is continuous.
Deactivation
The system automatically switches itself off when reverse gear is
disengaged.
If the vehicle is equipped with the
r button, the system can be
deactivated by pressing the button.
Fault
In the event of a fault in the system,
r illuminates.
Additionally, r flashes if a
malfunction of the system due to
temporary conditions like snow
covered sensors is detected.
Control indicator r 3 82.
Important hints for using the
parking assist systems9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.
Caution
Performance of the sensors can
be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
systems can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles involved (e.g.
off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist will not avoid a
collision with objects which are out
of the detection range of the
sensors.
