Overload - starter battery
The electrical functions in the car load the starter battery (p. 361) to varying degrees.Avoid using the key position (p. 70)
II when
the engine is switched off. Instead use the I
mode - which uses less power. Also, be aware of different accessories that load the electrical system. Do not use func-tions which use a lot of power when theengine is switched off. Examples of suchfunctions are: • ventilation fan
• headlamps
• windscreen wiper
• audio system (high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low then the combined instrument panel's information dis- play shows the text
Low battery Power
save mode. The energy-saving function then
shuts down certain functions or reduces cer- tain functions such as the ventilation fanand/or audio system.
–In which case, charge the battery by star- ting the engine and then running it for atleast 15 minutes - starter battery chargingis more effective during driving than run-ning the engine at idling speed while sta-tionary.

WARNING
•Check that the steering lock is unlocked before towing.
• The remote control key must be in keyposition
II - in position I all airbags are
deactivated.
• Never remove the remote control keyfrom the ignition switch when the caris being towed.
WARNING
The brake servo and power steering do not work when the engine is switched off - thebrake pedal needs to be depressedabout 5 times more heavily and the steer-ing is considerably heavier than normal.
Manual gearboxPrior to towing:
–Move gear lever into neutral and release the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox GeartronicPrior to towing:
–Move the gear selector to position
N and
release the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox PowershiftThe model with Powershift transmission should not be towed as it is dependent on theengine running in order to receive sufficient lubrication. 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.
IMPORTANT
Avoid towing.
• However, the car can be towed for a short distance at low speed to move itfrom a dangerous position - not furtherthan 10 km and not faster than10 km/h. Note that the car mustalways be towed with the wheels roll-ing forward.
• In the event of moving a longer dis-tance than 10 km, the car must betransported with the drive wheelsraised from the road - professionalrecovery is recommended.
Prior to towing:
–Move the gear selector to position
N and
release the parking brake.
Jump startingDo not tow the car to bump start the engine. Use a donor battery if the battery is dis-charged and the engine does not start, seeJump starting with battery (p. 270).
IMPORTANT
The catalytic converter may be damaged during attempts to tow-start the engine.

RemovalFirst of all
: Take the remote control key from
the ignition switch and wait at least 5 minutesbefore any electrical connections are touched- this is because the car's electrical systemneeds to store the necessary information tocontrol modules.
Open the clips on the front cover and remove the cover.
