(full braking).
Maintain steady pressure on the
brake pedal for as long as full braking
is required. Maximum brake force is
automatically reduced when the
brake pedal is released.Ride control systems
Traction Control system
The Traction control system (TC) is a
component part of the Electronic
stability program (ESP® Plus
) which
improves driving stability when
necessary, regardless of the type of
road surface or tyre grip, by
preventing the drive wheels from
spinning.
As soon as the drive wheels starts to spin, engine output is reduced and
the wheel spinning the most is braked individually. This considerably
improves the driving stability of the
vehicle on slippery road surfaces.
TC is operational as soon as the
ignition is switched on and control
indicator v extinguishes in the
instrument cluster.
When TC is active v flashes.

Parking assist
The parking assist makes reverse
parking easier by measuring the
distance between the rear of the
vehicle and obstacles. 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.
Notice
Attached parts in the detection area
cause system malfunction.
Activation
When reverse gear is engaged, the
system switches itself on
automatically. Readiness for
operation is indicated by a brief
acoustic alarm.
An obstacle is indicated by buzzers.
The interval between the buzzers
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets

Driving and operating125
closer to the obstacle. When the
distance is less than 1 ft, the buzzer
is continuous.9 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 sensor can be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system 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, like objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist will not detect
objects out of the detection range.
Deactivation
It is possible to deactivate or
temporarily deactivate the system.
Temporary deactivation
Temporarily deactivate the system by
pressing the r button on the
instrument panel with the ignition on
and reverse gear engaged. Control
indicator in the button illuminates.
When reverse gear is selected no
acoustic signal will sound, indicating
deactivation.
The function is reactivated by
pressing button r again or the next
time the ignition is switched on.
Permanent deactivation
Permanently deactivate the system
by pressing and holding the r
button on the instrument panel for
approx. 3 seconds with the ignition on and reverse gear engaged. Control
indicator in the button illuminates
continuously.
The system is deactivated and will not operate. When reverse gear is
selected no acoustic signal will
sound, indicating deactivation.
The function is reactivated by
pressing and holding button r for
approx. 3 seconds.

126Driving and operating
FaultIf the system detects an operatingfault, a continuous acoustic alarm will sound for approx. 5 seconds when
selecting reverse gear. Consult a
workshop to have the cause of the
fault remedied.Caution
When reversing, the area should
be free from obstacles which could impact on the underside of the
vehicle.
Impact to the rear axle, which may
not be visible, could lead to
uncharacteristic changes in the
vehicle handling. In the event of
such an impact, consult a
workshop.
Rear view camera
The camera is typically installed
under the number plate moulding with a display monitor fitted to the driver's
sun visor.
Functionality
The rear view camera system
enables the driver to view the rear of
the vehicle in the display monitor
whilst reversing.
The system can be activated or
deactivated by selecting the
Start/Stop button located on the right-
hand side of the display monitor.
The remaining buttons on the monitor enable the user to select source
AV1 or AV2 and adjust the brightness
and contrast of the display monitor.
To achieve the optimum visibility, the
rear view camera must not be
obscured by dirt, snow or ice.9 Warning
The system is intended as a
reversing aid and does not replace
driver vision.
Do not let this feature tempt you
into take risks when reversing.
Failure to use proper care when
reversing may result in damage to
the vehicle, injury, or death.
Always check the outside,
rearview mirrors and glance over
your shoulder before reversing.
The driver assistance systems do not relieve the driver from full
responsibility for vehicle
operation.

Driving and operating127Fuel
Fuel for diesel engines Only use diesel fuel that complies
with EN 590. The fuel must have low
sulphur content (max. 10 ppm).
Equivalent standardised fuels with a
biodiesel (= FAME according to
EN14214) content of max. 7% by
volume (like DIN 51628 or equivalent
standards) may be used.
In countries outside the European
Union use Euro-Diesel fuel with a
sulphur concentration below 50 ppm.Caution
Use of fuel that does not comply to EN 590 or similar can lead to
engine powerloss, increased wear
or engine damage and may affect
your warranty.
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils or entirely plant-based diesel
fuels, such as rape seed oil or bio
diesel, Aquazole and similar diesel-
water emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
The flow and filterability of diesel fuels are temperature-dependent. When
temperatures are low, refuel with
diesel fuel with guaranteed winter
properties.
Refuelling9 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.
The fuel tank filler neck with bayonet
cap is located on the left front side of
the vehicle.

Fuel consumption - CO 2-
Emissions
For the values specific to your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of
Conformity provided with your vehicle or other national registration
documents.
General information The official fuel consumption and
specific CO 2 emission figures quoted
relate to the EU base model with
standard equipment.
Fuel consumption data and CO 2
emission data are determined
according to regulation
715/2007 692/2008 A, taking into
consideration the vehicle weight in
running order, as specified by the regulation.
The figures must not be taken as a
guarantee for the actual fuel
consumption of a particular vehicle.
Additional equipment may result in
slightly higher results than the stated
consumption and CO 2 figures.Furthermore, fuel consumption is
dependent on personal driving style
as well as road and traffic conditions.
