Brake support systems
Information on brake support systems
The vehicle is fitted with brake support systems. The systems can support the driver in critical
driving or braking situations. Brake support systems cannot overcome the limits of physics and
cannot always keep the vehicle under control in every single critical driving or braking situation. The
driver is responsible for driving safety ⇒.
Driving with brake support systems
The brake support systems work when the engine is running. They do not need to be operated
separately.
The brake pedal may pulsate or noises may occur while the brake support systems are regulating.
Continue to apply the necessary amount of brake pressure. Apply the necessary pressure to the
brake pedal consistently. If necessary, steer the vehicle while the brake pedal is depressed.
Fast steering wheel movements can cause serious injury.
•During the manoeuvring operation, do not reach for the steering wheel until prompted
to do so by the system.
•Exception: if a dangerous situation occurs, intervene and take over the steering.
WARNING
Do not let the automatic braking intervention tempt you to take any risks while driving, as
this can cause accidents. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration of the
driver.
•Trailer Assist has system-related limitations. In some situations, the automatic braking
intervention function is only able to intervene in a limited way or not at all.
•You should always be prepared to brake the vehicle yourself.
•The automatic braking intervention is ended after approximately 1.5 seconds at vehicle
standstill. Depress the brake pedal of the vehicle yourself following the automatic
braking intervention.
WARNING

Always ensure that the ventilation openings between the rear window and the stowage area
are uncovered to allow stale air to escape from the vehicle.

Stowage compartment on the front passenger side
Loose objects may be flung through the vehicle interior in the event of a sudden driving or
braking manoeuvre. This can cause serious injury and can also lead to loss of control of
the vehicle.
•Do not stow any pets or any hard, heavy or sharp objects in the vehicle's open stowage
areas, on the dash panel, on the shelf behind the rear seats, or in items of clothing and
bags in the vehicle interior.
•Always keep stowage compartments closed while the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING
Objects in the driver footwell can hinder pedal operation. This can lead to loss of control
of the vehicle and increase the risk of serious injury.
•Please ensure that all pedals can always be operated without any hindrance.
•The floor mats must always be properly secured in the footwell.
•No additional floor mats or other floor coverings should be placed over the fitted floor
mat.
•Ensure that no objects can enter the driver footwell while the vehicle is in motion.
•If there are any objects in the footwell, remove them when the vehicle is parked.
WARNING
Cigarette lighters in the vehicle could be damaged or accidentally lit. This could lead to
serious burns and other injuries.
•Before adjusting the seats, always ensure that there is no lighter on or near the
moveable parts of the seat.
•Before closing stowage areas or compartments always ensure that there is no lighter
in the way.
•Never stow lighters in stowage areas, compartments or on other surfaces in the
vehicle. High surface temperatures, especially in summer, may cause cigarette lighters
to self-ignite.
WARNING
•Hard objects could rub against the wires of the heating element in the rear window and
cause damage.
•Do not stow any temperature-sensitive objects, food or medicines inside the vehicle.
Hot and cold temperatures could damage them or render them unusable.
•Objects stored in the vehicle that are made from transparent materials, such as

Introduction
Maximum power rating
Electrical socketMaximum power rating
12 V120 W
230, 115 or 100 V150 W (300 W peak poweryf
If two or more devices are connected at the same time, the overall power consumption of all
connected electrical devices must never exceed 190 watts ⇒.
The maximum power rating of the individual sockets should never be exceeded. The power rating
of each device is stated on its type plate.
230-volt socket, 115-volt socket, 100-volt socket
The socket is activated automatically as soon as a plug is connected when the engine is running. If
there is sufficient energy in the system, the socket can also be used when the engine is off ⇒.
Connecting an electrical device: fold open the cover and insert the plug all the way into the socket
to unlock the integrated child lock. Electricity will not flow until the child lock has been unlocked.
LEDs on the socket
Constant green light:The child lock is disengaged. The socket is ready for use.
Flashing green light:
The ignition is switched off but there is sufficient energy available
to continue to supply the socket with power for up to 10 minutes.
If the plug is removed during this time, the socket switches off
and cannot be re-used until the ignition is switched on again.
Flashing red light:A fault has occurred, for example cut-off due to excess current or
temperature.
Temperature switch-off
If a specific temperature is exceeded, the inverter of the 230-, 115- or 100-volt socket switches itself
off automatically. The switch-off function prevents the connected device from overheating when the
power consumption is too high or if the ambient temperature is too high. The 230-, 115- or 100-volt
socket can be used again only after a cool-down phase.
The plug on the connected device must first be removed and then reinserted before using the 230-,
115- or 100-volt socket again after the cool-down phase. This prevents the electrical devices being
switched on again unintentionally.

•If necessary, fold back the rear seat backrest and allow it to engage securely.
•If necessary, adjust the headlight range ⇒ Headlights.

Objects that are not secured, or are secured incorrectly, can cause serious injuries in the
event of a sudden driving or braking manoeuvre or accident. This applies particularly if
objects are struck by the airbag when activated and then flung through the vehicle
interior. To reduce the risk of accidents, please observe the following guidelines:
•Always stow all objects in the vehicle securely.
•Small and light objects should also be secured.
•Objects should be stowed in the vehicle interior in such a way that they can never
enter the airbag deployment zones while the vehicle is in motion.
•Always keep stowage compartments closed while the vehicle is in motion.
•Stowed objects must never cause passengers to assume an incorrect sitting position.
•If an item is being stowed on a seat, this seat must not be used by any passengers.
•Do not stow any hard, heavy or sharp objects loose in any of the vehicle's open
stowage areas, on the surface behind the rear seat backrest or on the dash panel.
•Remove any hard, heavy or sharp objects from items of clothing and bags inside the
vehicle and stow them securely.
WARNING
Transporting heavy objects changes the vehicle's handling and increases the braking
distance. Heavy loads that are not properly stowed or secured in the vehicle can lead to a
loss of vehicle control and can cause serious injury.
•Never exceed the vehicle's maximum payload. Both the payload and the distribution of
the load in the vehicle will have an effect on the driving response and braking distance
of the vehicle.
•Transporting heavy objects changes the vehicle's handling and the centre of gravity.
•The payload should be distributed as evenly as possible in the vehicle.
•Always secure heavy objects in the luggage compartment as far in front of the rear axle
as possible.
•Loose objects in the luggage compartment can suddenly slide and change the way the
vehicle handles.
•Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
•Accelerate carefully and gently.
•Avoid sudden braking and driving manoeuvres.
