154Driving and operating9Warning
If the vehicle battery is discharged,
the vehicle must not be towed,
tow-started or jump-started as the
steering wheel lock cannot be
disengaged.
Operation on vehicles with
electronic key system in case of
failure
If either the electronic key fails or the
battery of the electronic key is weak,
a message may be displayed in the
Driver Information Centre.
Hold the electronic key with buttons
outside at the marking on the steering column cover as shown in the
illustration.
Operate the clutch pedal (manual
transmission), the brake pedal and
press Start/Stop .
This option is intended for
emergencies only. Replace the
electronic key battery as soon as
possible 3 23.
For unlocking or locking the doors,
see fault in radio remote control unit
or electronic key system 3 24.Starting the engine
Vehicles with ignition switch
Turn key to position 1 to release the
steering wheel lock.
Manual transmission: operate clutch
and brake pedal.
Automatic transmission: operate
brake pedal and move selector lever
to P or N.
Do not operate accelerator pedal.
Diesel engines: wait until control
indicator z extinguishes.

Driving and operating159Parking9Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply the parking brake.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear or set the selector
lever to position P (automatic
transmission type A) / N
(automatic transmission type B). On an uphill slope, turn the
front wheels away from the
kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear or
set the selector lever to position P (automatic transmission type
A) / N (automatic transmission
type B). Turn the front wheels
towards the kerb.
● Close the windows.
● Switch off the engine.
● Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch or switch off
ignition on vehicles with power
button. Turn the steering wheel
until the steering wheel lock is
felt to engage.
● Lock the vehicle.
● Activate the anti-theft alarm system.
● The engine cooling fans may run
after the engine has been
switched off 3 212.
Caution
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.
Notice
In the event of an accident with airbag deployment, the engine is
switched off automatically if the
vehicle comes to a standstill within a
certain time.
In countries with extreme low
temperatures it may be necessary to park the vehicle without applied
parking brake. Make sure to park the
vehicle on a level surface.

Driving and operating161AdBlue
General information
The selective catalytic reduction
(BlueInjection) is a method to
substantially reduce the nitrogen
oxides in the exhaust emission. This
is achieved by injecting a Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust
system. The ammonia released by
the fluid reacts with nitrous gases
(NO x) from the exhaust and turns it
into nitrogen and water.
The designation of this fluid is
AdBlue ®
. It is a non-toxic, non-
flammable, colourless and odourless
fluid which consists of 32% urea and
68% water.9 Warning
Avoid contact of your eyes or skin
with AdBlue.
In case of eye or skin contact,
rinse off with water.
Caution
Avoid contact of the paintwork with AdBlue.
In case of contact, rinse off with water.
AdBlue freezes at a temperature of
approx. -11 °C. As the vehicle is
equipped with an AdBlue pre-heater,
the emissions reduction at low
temperatures is ensured. The AdBlue
pre-heater works automatically.
The typical AdBlue consumption is
approx. 22 l per 6000 miles to
9000 miles depending on driving behaviour (e.g. high load or towing).
Level warnings
Depending on the calculated range of
AdBlue, different messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. The messages and the
restrictions are a legal requirement.
1. The first possible warning is Top
up emissions additive: Starting
prevented in 1500 mi .
When switching on the ignition,
this warning will show up once
briefly with the calculated range.
Additionally, control indicator
B will illuminate and a chime
will sound. Driving is possible
without any restrictions.
2. The next warning level is entered with a range below 500 miles. Themessage with the current range
will always be displayed when
ignition is switched on.
Additionally, control indicator
B will illuminate and a chime
will sound. Refill AdBlue before
entering the next warning level.
When driving, the chime sounds
and the message is displayed
every 60 miles until the AdBlue
tank has been topped-up.
3. The next warning level is entered with a range below 60 miles. The
message with the current range
will always be displayed when
ignition is switched on.
Additionally, control indicator
B will flash and a chime will
sound. Refill AdBlue as soon as
possible before the AdBlue tank is
