110LightingMotorway lighting
Activated automatically at a speed
above approx. 72 mph and minimal
steering movements. It switches on
after a delay or directly when the
vehicle is powerfully accelerated. The light beam is longer and brighter.
Adverse weather lighting
Activated automatically up to a speed of approx. 43 mph, when the rain
sensor recognises condensation or
the wiper operates continuously. The
range, distribution and light intensity
is regulated variably depending on visibility.Dynamic curve lighting
The light beam pivots based on
steering wheel angle and speed,
improving lighting in curves.
Control indicator f 3 87.
Corner lighting On tight bends or when turning off,
depending on the steering angle or
the turn signal light, an additional left
or right reflector is switched on which illuminates the road at an right angle
to the direction of travel. It is activated
up to a speed of 25 mph.
Control indicator f 3 87.
Reversing function
If the headlights are on and reverse
gear is engaged, both corner lights
are switched on. They remain
illuminated for 20 seconds after disengaging reverse gear or until
driving faster than 10 mph in a
forward gear.
High beam assist This feature allows high beam as
main driving light by night and when
vehicle speed is faster than 25 mph.
It switches to low beam when: ● The camera in the windscreen detects the lights of oncoming or
preceding vehicles.
● The vehicle speed is slower than
12 mph.
● It is foggy or snowy.
● Driving in urban areas.

124Driving and operatingDriving hints
Control of the vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running (except during Autostop)
Many systems will not function in this
situation (e.g. brake servo unit, power steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others. All
systems function during an Autostop,
but there will be a controlled reduction
in power steering assist and vehicle
speed is reduced.
Stop-start system 3 126.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.
Use only floor mats, which fit properly
and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.Steering
If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.
Control indicator c 3 85.Caution
Vehicles equipped with hydraulic
power steering:
If the steering wheel is turned until it reaches the end of its travel, and
is held in that position for more
than 10 seconds, damage may
occur to the power steering
system and there may be loss of
power steering assist.
Starting 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.
Diesel particle filter 3 129.

Driving and operating125Ignition switch positions0:ignition off1:steering wheel lock released,
ignition off2:ignition on, for diesel engine:
preheating3:startingStarting the engine
Manual transmission: operate clutch.
Automatic transmission: operate
brake and move the selector lever to
P or N.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal. Diesel engine: turn the key to position2 for preheating until control
indicator ! extinguishes.
Turn the key briefly to position 3 and
release: an automatic procedure
operates the starter with a short delay
as long as the engine is running, see
'Automatic Starter Control'.
Before restarting or to switch off the engine, turn the key back to position
0 .
During an Autostop, the engine can
be started by depressing the clutch
pedal.
Key lock release Some vehicles with an automatic
transmission are equipped with an electronic key lock release system.
The key lock release is designed to
prevent ignition key removal unless
the selector lever is in P.
Starting the vehicle at low
temperatures
Starting 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. With
temperatures below -30 °C the
automatic transmission requires a
warming phase of approx. 5 minutes.
The selector lever must be in position P .

Driving and operating129Turn the steering wheel untilthe steering wheel lock is felt to engage.
● Lock the vehicle.
● Activate the anti-theft alarm system.
Notice
In the event of an accident with airbag deployment, the engine is
turned off automatically if the vehicle
comes to a standstill within a certain time.
Engine exhaust9 Danger
Engine exhaust gases contain
poisonous carbon monoxide,
which is colourless and odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust gases enter the interior
of the vehicle, open the windows.
Have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop.
Avoid driving with an open load
compartment, otherwise exhaust
gases could enter the vehicle.
Diesel particle filter
The diesel particle filter system filters
harmful soot particles out of the
exhaust gases. The system includes
a self-cleaning function that runs
automatically during driving without
any notification. The filter is cleaned
by periodically burning off the soot
particles at high temperature. This
process takes place automatically
under set driving conditions and may
take up to 25 minutes. Typically it
needs between 7 and 12 minutes.
Autostop is not available and fuel
consumption may be higher during
this period. The emission of smells
and smoke during this process is
normal.
Under certain driving conditions, e.g.
short distances, the system cannot
clean itself automatically.
If cleaning of the filter is required and if previous driving conditions did not
enable automatic cleaning, it will be
indicated by control indicator %.
% illuminates when diesel particle
filter is full. Start cleaning process as
soon as possible.
