New vehicle running-in 3 103.
Vehicle battery discharge protection
To ensure reliable engine restarts,
several vehicle battery discharge
protection features are implemented
as part of the stop-start system.
Power saving measures

features, e.g., the rear window
heating, are disabled or switched into
a power saving mode. The fan speed of the climate control system is
reduced to save power.Restart of the engine by the driver
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the

engine will be restarted automatically by the stop-start system:
● The stop-start system is manually deactivated.
● The bonnet is opened.
● The driver's seat belt is unfastened and the driver's door
is opened.
● The engine temperature is too low.● The charging level of the vehiclebattery is below a defined level.
● The brake vacuum is not sufficient.

workshop.
A label with symbols at the fuel filler
flap is indicating the allowed fuel
types. In Europe the pump nozzles of the filling stations are marked with
these symbols. Refuel only the
allowed fuel type.
Caution
In case of misfuelling, do not
switch on ignition.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Pull up the fuel filler flap release lever located on the floor, left front
side of driver's seat.
The fuel filler flap is located at right
rear side of the vehicle.
3. Turn the fuel filler cap counterclockwise slowly. If a
hissing sound is heard, wait for it
to stop before completely
unscrewing the cap.
4. Remove the cap. The cap is tethered to the vehicle.
5. Place the nozzle in straight position to the filler neck and
press with slight force to insert.
To refuel, switch on pump nozzle. After the automatic cut-off, the
tank can be topped up by
operating the pump nozzle a
maximum of two more times.Caution
Wipe off any overflowing fuel
immediately.
6. To close, turn the fuel filler cap clockwise until it clicks.
