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 brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
● Close the windows.
● Turn the ignition key to position
0 and remove it. Turn the

Lock cylinders
Designed to free-wheel if they are forcefully rotated without the correct
key or if the correct key is not fully
inserted. To reset, turn cylinder with
the correct key until its slot is vertical, remove key and then re-insert it. If the

20Keys, doors and windowsCar Pass
The Car Pass contains security
related vehicle data and should
therefore be kept in a safe place.
When the vehicle is taken to a
workshop, this vehicle data is needed
in order to perform certain operations.
Radio remote control
Used to operate: ● central locking system 3 23
● anti-theft locking system 3 32
● anti-theft alarm system 3 33
● load compartment 3 31
The remote control has a range of
approx. 5 metres. It can be restricted
by external influences. The hazard
warning flashers confirm operation.
Handle with care, protect it from
moisture and high temperatures and
avoid unnecessary operation.
Depending on model, the vehicle may
use a 2 button or 3 button remote
control or an electronic key which
includes the functionality of the radio
remote control.
Electronic key system 3 22.
Fault
If the central locking system cannot
be operated with the remote control,
it may be due to the following:
● range exceeded
● battery voltage too low
● frequent, repeated operation of the remote control while not in
range, which will require
reprogramming by a workshop● overload of the central locking system by operating at frequent
intervals, the power supply is
interrupted for a short time
● interference from higher-power radio waves from other sources
Manual key operation 3 23.
Remote control battery
replacement
Replace the battery as soon as the
range reduces.
Batteries do not belong in household
waste. They must be disposed of at
an appropriate recycling collection
point.

also if the key is left in the ignition
switch when the engine is turned off.
If the engine cannot be started, switch off the ignition and remove key, wait
approx. 2 seconds and then repeat
the start attempt. If start attempt is
unsuccessful, attempt to start the
engine using the spare key and seek
the assistance of a workshop.Notice

120Driving and operatingParking9Warning
● 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.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
● Lock the vehicle 3 23
● Activate the anti-theft locking system 3 32 and anti-theft alarm
system 3 33.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

Driving and operating135system. Refer to Infotainment
system manual for further
information.
Deactivation
Deactivate the system by pressing
r on the instrument panel with the
ignition on. LED illuminates in the
button when deactivated. When
reverse gear is selected, no acoustic
signal will sound.
Notice
In versions with Info-Display
indication, the function can be
deactivated via the Infotainment
system. Refer to Infotainment
system manual for further
information.
The function is reactivated by
pressing r again or the next time
the ignition is switched on.
Fault
If the system detects an operating fault, when selecting reverse gear a
continuous acoustic alarm will sound
for approx. 5 seconds, a
corresponding message appears in
the Driver Information Centre (DIC)
3 89 and F illuminates in the
instrument cluster 3 85. 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.
Vehicle messages 3 90.
Basic notes on parking assist system
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.
Caution
Performance of the sensors can
be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
systems can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
