116Driving and operatingStarting 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.
Stop-start system 3 119.

Electronic key must be inside the
vehicle, either in the card reader or
the front passenger compartment.
If the electronic key is not inside the
vehicle, a corresponding message
appears in the Driver Information
Centre (DIC) 3 90.
Notice
Do not put the electronic key in the
load compartment during driving, as
this is outside of the detection zone
(indicated by a warning chime at low
speed 3 92 and a message in the
Driver Information Centre (DIC)
3 91).

140Driving and operatingGuide lines (3, 4, 5) are used together
with the fixed lane display (2) and
indicate the distance behind the
vehicle.
The guide line intervals are as
follows:3 (red):30 cm4 (yellow):70 cm5 (green):150 cm
Settings
Settings, e.g. brightness, contrast
and colours can be changed via the
Infotainment system. The feature
may also be switched off
permanently. Refer to Infotainment
system manual for further
information.
Deactivation
The camera is deactivated after a
delay if reverse gear is not engaged
for approx. 5 seconds.
Fault
The rear view camera may not
operate properly when:
● the surrounding is dark
● the sun or the beam of headlights
is shining directly into the camera
lens
● ice, snow, mud, or anything else covers the camera lens. Clean
the lens, rinse it with water, and
wipe it with a soft cloth
● the rear doors/tailgate are not closed correctly
● the vehicle had a rear-end accident
● there are extreme temperature changesFuel
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 loss of
warranty.
Do not use marine diesel oils, heating
oils, Aquazole and similar diesel-
water emulsions. Diesel fuels must
not be diluted with fuels for petrol
engines.
