Stop-start system
If the vehicle is at low speed or in
standstill and certain conditions are
fulfilled, activate an Autostop as

ParkingCaution
Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The high
temperature of the exhaust
system could ignite the surface.
■ Always apply parking brake without
pressing release button. Apply as
firmly as possible on a downhill
slope or uphill slope. Depress foot
brake at the same time to reduce
operating force.
■ If the vehicle is on a level surface or
uphill slope, engage first gear
before switching off the ignition. On
an uphill slope, turn the front
wheels away from the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill slope, engage reverse gear before
switching off the ignition. Turn the
front wheels towards the kerb.
■ After running at high engine speeds
or with high engine loads, operate the engine briefly at a low load or
run in neutral for approx.
30 seconds before switching off, in
order to protect the turbocharger.
■ Switch off the engine. Turn the ignition key to position St and
remove it. Turn steering wheel until
it locks.
■ Close the windows.
■ Lock the vehicle. Activate the anti-theft alarm system
3 27.
■ The engine cooling fans may run after the engine has been switchedoff 3 133.

Control of the vehicleNever 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 3 108.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.
Power steering Never leave the steering wheel on full
lock when the vehicle is stationary as this may damage the power steering
pump.Starting and operating
New vehicle running-in
Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys and after new
disc brake pads have been fitted.
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
vehicle battery.
