Additional heater*
In cold climate zones 5
an additional heater
may be required to obtain the correct operat- ing temperature in the engine and to obtainsufficient heating in the passenger compart-ment. A fuel-driven additional heater (p. 134) is fit- ted in cars with diesel engines. In a semi-cold 5
climate zone diesel-driven
cars have an electric additional heater (p. 135) instead of a fuel-driven version. Cars with certain petrol engines 6
have an
electric additional heater integrated into the car's climate control system.

Calibration and serviceThe Alcolock must be checked and calibrated at a workshop 2
every 12 months.
30 days before recalibration is necessary the combined instrument panel shows the mes- sage
Alcoguard Calibr. required. If calibra-
tion is not carried out within these 30 days then normal engine starting will be blocked -only starting with the Bypass function willthen be possible, see the following heading"Emergency situation". The message can be cleared by pressing the send button (3) once. Otherwise it goes outon its own after approx. 2 minutes but thenreappears each time the engine is started - only recalibration at a workshop 2
can clear
the message permanently.
Cold or hot weatherThe colder the weather the longer it takes before the Alcolock is ready for use:
Temperature (ºC)Maximum heat-
ing time (sec- onds)
+10 to +8510
-5 to +1060
-40 to -5180
At temperatures below -20 ºC or above +60 ºC the Alcolock requires additional powersupply. The combined instrument panel shows
Alcoguard insert power cable. In
which case, connect the power supply cable from the glovebox and wait until indicatorlamp (6) is green. In extremely cold weather the heating time can be reduced by taking the Alcolockindoors.
Emergency situationIn the event of an emergency situation or theAlcolock is out of order, it is possible tobypass the Alcolock in order to drive the car.
NOTE
All Bypass activation is logged and saved in memory, see Recording data (p. 16).
After the Bypass function has been activated the combined instrument panel shows
Alcoguard Bypass enabled the whole time
while driving and can only be reset by a work- shop 2
.
The Bypass function can be tested without the error message being logged - in whichcase, carry out all the steps without startingthe car. The error message is cleared whenthe car is locked. When the Alcolock is installed, either theBypass or Emergency function is selected asthe bypassing option. This setting can be changed afterwards at a workshop
2
.
Activating the Bypass function
• Depress and hold the left-hand stalk switch
OK button and the button for haz-
ard warning flashers simultaneously forapprox. 5 seconds - the combined instru- ment panel first shows
Bypass activated
Wait 1 minute and then Alcoguard
Bypass enabled - after which the engine
can be started.
This function can be activated several times. The error message shown during driving can only be cleared at a workshop 2
.
Activating the Emergency function • Depress and hold the left-hand stalk switch
OK button and the button for haz-
ard warning flashers simultaneously forapprox. 5 seconds - the combined instru- ment panel shows
Alcoguard Bypass
enabled and the engine can be started.
This function can be used once, after which a reset must be made at a workshop 2
.

Ignition switch with remote control key extrac- ted/inserted. and START/STOP ENGINE button.
IMPORTANT
Do not press in the remote control key incorrectly turned - hold the end with thedetachable key blade, see Detachable keyblade - detaching/attaching (p. 155).
1. Insert the remote control key in the igni-
tion switch and press it in to its end posi- tion. Note that if the car is equipped withAlcolock* then a breath test must first beapproved before the engine can bestarted. For more information on theAlcolock, see Alcolock* (p. 259).
2. Hold the clutch pedal fully depressed 3
.
(For cars with automatic gearbox -depress the brake pedal.)
3. Press the START/STOP ENGINE button
and then release it.
When the engine is started the starter motorworks until the engine is started or until theoverheating protection triggers.
IMPORTANT
If the engine fails to start after 3 attempts - wait for 3 minutes before making a furtherattempt. Starting capacity increases if thebattery is allowed to recover.
WARNING
Never remove the remote control key from the ignition switch after starting the engineor when the car is being towed.
WARNING
Always remove the remote control key from the ignition switch when leaving thecar, and make sure that the key position is0 - in particular if there are children in the
car. For information on how this works -see Key positions (p. 70).
NOTE
The idling speed can be noticeably higher than normal for certain engine types duringcold starting. This is done in order that theemissions system can reach normal oper-ating temperature as quickly as possible,which minimises exhaust emissions andprotects the environment.
Keyless drive*Follow steps 2-3 for keyless (p. 159) starting of the engine.
NOTE
A prerequisite for the engine to start is that one of the car's remote control keys withthe Keyless drive function is in the passen-ger compartment or cargo area.
WARNING
Never remove the remote control key from
the car while driving or during towing.

charged battery.
IMPORTANT
Do not touch the crocodile clips during the start procedure. There is a risk of sparksforming.
12. Remove the jump leads in reverse order -first the black and then the red.
> Make sure that none of the black jumplead's clamps comes into contact with the battery's positive terminal or theclamp connected to the red jump lead!
WARNING
• The battery can generate oxyhydrogen gas, which is highly explosive. A sparkcan be formed if a jump lead is con-nected incorrectly, and this can beenough for the battery to explode.
• The battery contains sulphuric acid,which can cause serious burns.
• If sulphuric acid comes into contactwith eyes, skin or clothing, flush withlarge quantities of water. If acidsplashes into the eyes - seek medicalattention immediately.

•Automatic gearbox -- Geartronic* (p. 273)
Manual gearbox
The function of the gearbox is to change the gear ratio depending on speed and powerrequirements.
Gearshift pattern 6-speed gearbox.
The 6-speed box is available in two versions - reverse gear position differs between them.Look at the actual gearshift pattern imprintedon the gear lever. • Depress the clutch pedal fully during each gear change.
• Take your foot off the clutch pedalbetween gear changes.
WARNING
Always apply the parking brake when parking on a slope - leaving the car in gearis not sufficient to hold the car in all situa-tions.

Automatic gearbox -- Powershift*
An automatic gearbox with Powershift differs from an automatic gearbox with Geartronic (p.273), in that it has double mechanical clutchdiscs.
D : Automatic gear positions. +S–: Manual gear
positions. S: Sport mode*.
The Powershift automatic gearbox transmits the motive force from the engine to the drivewheels with double mechanical clutch discs,as opposed to Geartronic which instead usesa hydraulic torque converter. Powershift transmission operates in the same way and has similar controls and functions asthe Geartronic automatic transmission. Oneexception is Geartronic's Winter mode, seethe section "Geartronic - Winter mode" (p. 273). Powershift enables driving away on aslippery road surface if 2nd gear is engagedmanually instead of 3rd gear (Geartronic).
Powershift or GeartronicThe model with Powershift transmissionshould not be towed as it is dependent on theengine running in order to receive sufficientlubrication. If towing still has to take place,the route must be as short as possible andthen with very low speed. In the event of uncertainty as to whether or not the car is equipped with Powershift trans-mission, this can be verified by checking thedesignation on the gearbox label under thebonnet - see Type designations (p. 386). Thedesignation ”MPS6” means that it isPowershift transmission - otherwise it isGeartronic automatic transmission.
To bear in mindThe transmission's double clutch has over-load protection that is activated if it becomestoo hot, e.g. if the car is held stationary withthe accelerator pedal on an uphill gradient fora long time. Overheated transmission causes the car to shake and vibrate, and the warning symbolilluminates and the combined instrumentpanel shows a message. The transmissioncan also overheat during slow driving inqueues (10 km/h or slower) on an uphill gradi-ent, or with a trailer hitched. The transmissioncools down when the car is stationary, withfoot brake depressed and the engine runningat idling speed. Overheating during slow driving in queues can be avoided by driving in stages:
• Stop the car and wait with your foot on the brake pedal until there is a moderatedistance to the traffic ahead, drive for-ward a short distance, and then waitanother moment with your foot on thebrake pedal.
IMPORTANT
Use the foot brake to hold the car station- ary on an uphill gradient - do not hold thecar with the accelerator pedal. The gear-box could then overheat.
For important information regarding Power- shift transmission and towing, see Towing (p.313).
Text message and actionIn some situations the combined instrumentpanel may show a text message at the sametime as a symbol is illuminated.
