Stopping the vehicleIn D, first gear is engaged and theclutch is released when the vehicle isstopped. In R, reverse gear remainsengaged.
Engine braking
Automatic modeWhen driving downhill, the manualtransmission automated does notshift into higher gears until a fairlyhigh engine speed has been reached.It shifts down in good time whenbraking.
Driving and operating 113
Manual modeTo utilise the engine braking effect,select a lower gear in good time whendriving downhill. Changing intomanual mode is only possible whilethe engine is running.
Rocking the vehicleRocking the vehicle is onlypermissible if the vehicle is stuck insand, mud or snow. Move the selectorlever between R and D in a repeatpattern. Do not race the engine andavoid sudden acceleration.
ParkingThe most recently engaged gear (seetransmission display) remainsengaged when switching off ignition.With N, no gear is engaged.Therefore always apply the parkingbrake when switching off ignition. Ifparking brake is not applied, P flashesin the transmission display and thekey cannot be removed from theignition switch. P stops flashing in thetransmission display as soon as theparking brake is slightly applied.
When the ignition is switched off, thetransmission no longer responds tomovement of the selector lever.
Tyre pressure monitoring systemTo start the sensor matching processof the tyre pressure monitoringsystem, the selector lever must bemoved and held in position N forfive seconds. P illuminates in thetransmission display to indicate thatthe sensor matching process can bestarted.Tyre pressure monitoring system3 151.
Manual modeIf a higher gear is selected when theengine speed is too low, or a lowergear when the speed is too high, theshift is not executed. This preventsthe engine from running at too low ortoo high an engine speed. M and thenumber of the selected gear will beflashed, then the current gear isdisplayed again..
If engine speed is too low, thetransmission automatically shifts to alower gear.When + or - is selected in automaticmode, the transmission switches tomanual mode and shifts accordingly.
Gear shift indicationThe symbol R with a numberalongside it, is indicated whengearshifting is recommended for fuelsaving reasons.Shift indication appears only inmanual mode.
Electronic drivingprogrammesThe adaptive programme tailorsgearshifting to the driving conditions,e.g. greater load or gradients.
FaultTo prevent damage to the manualtransmission automated, the clutch isengaged automatically at high clutchtemperatures.
114 Driving and operating
In the event of a fault, control indicatorg illuminates. Additionally, awarning message is displayed in theDriver Information Centre. Vehiclemessages 3 79.Continued driving is restricted or notpossible, depending on the fault.Have the cause of the fault remediedby a workshop.
BrakesThe brake system comprises twoindependent brake circuits.If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle canstill be braked using the other brakecircuit. However, braking effect isachieved only when the brake pedalis depressed firmly. Considerablymore force is needed for this. Thebraking distance is extended. Seekthe assistance of a workshop beforecontinuing the journey.When the engine is not running, thesupport of the brake servo unitdisappears once the brake pedal hasbeen depressed once or twice.Braking effect is not reduced, butbraking requires significantly greaterforce. It is especially important to bearthis in mind when being towed.Control indicator R 3 69.
Antilock brake systemAntilock brake system (ABS)prevents the wheels from locking.
ABS starts to regulate brake pressureas soon as a wheel shows a tendencyto lock. The vehicle remainssteerable, even during hard braking.ABS control is made apparentthrough a pulse in the brake pedaland the noise of the regulationprocess.For optimum braking, keep the brakepedal fully depressed throughout thebraking process, despite the fact thatthe pedal is pulsating. Do not reducethe pressure on the pedal.After starting-off the system performsa self-test which may be audible.Control indicator u 3 70.
Adaptive brake lightDuring full braking, all three brakelights flash for the duration of ABScontrol.
Driving and operating 115
Fault
9 Warning
If there is a fault in the ABS, thewheels may be liable to lock dueto braking that is heavier thannormal. The advantages of ABSare no longer available. Duringhard braking, the vehicle can nolonger be steered and mayswerve.

Hill start assistThe system helps prevent unintendedmovement when driving away oninclines.When releasing the brake pedal afterstopping on an incline, the brakesremain on for a further two seconds.The brakes release automatically as
116 Driving and operating
soon as the vehicle begins toaccelerate or the two seconds holdingtime is over.The hill start assist is not active duringan Autostop.
Ride control systemsTraction Control systemThe Traction Control system (TC) is acomponent of the Electronic StabilityControl (ESC).TC improves driving stability whennecessary, regardless of the type ofroad surface or tyre grip, bypreventing the drive wheels fromspinning.As soon as the drive wheels start tospin, engine output is reduced andthe wheel spinning the most is brakedindividually. This considerablyimproves the driving stability of thevehicle on slippery road surfaces.
TC is operational after each enginestart as soon as the control indicatorb extinguishes.When TC operates b flashes.
9 Warning
Do not let this special safetyfeature tempt you into taking riskswhen driving.Adapt speed to the roadconditions.

FuelFuel for petrol enginesOnly use unleaded fuel that complieswith European standard EN 228 orE DIN 51626-1 or equivalent.The engine is capable of running withfuel that contains up to 10% ethanol(e.g., named E10).Use fuel with the recommendedoctane rating. The engine-specificrequirements are given in the enginedata overview 3 177. A country-specific label at the fuel filler flap cansupersede the requirement.
Caution
Do not use fuel or fuel additivesthat contain metallic compoundssuch as manganese-basedadditives. This may cause enginedamage.
Driving and operating 125
Caution
Use of fuel that does not comply toEN 228 or E DIN 51626-1 orequivalent can lead to deposits orengine damage.
Caution
Use of fuel with too low an octanerating could lead to uncontrolledcombustion and engine damage.
Fuel for liquid gas operationLiquid gas is known as LPG(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) or underits French name GPL (Gaz de PétroleLiquéfié). LPG is also known asAutogas.LPG consists mainly of propane andbutane. The octane rating is between105 and 115, depending on thebutane proportion. LPG is storedliquid at around five to ten barpressure.
The boiling point depends on thepressure and mixing ratio. At ambientpressure, it is between -42 °C (purepropane) and -0.5 °C (pure butane).
Caution
The system works at an ambienttemperature of approx. -8 °C to100 °C.
Full function of the LPG system canonly be guaranteed with liquid gaswhich complies with the minimumrequirements of DIN EN 589.
Fuel selector
Pressing LPG switches betweenpetrol and liquid gas operation assoon as the required parameters(coolant temperature, gastemperature and minimum enginespeed) have been reached.

If the fuel tank is empty, the enginewill not start.
126 Driving and operating
The selected fuel mode is stored andreactivated at the next ignition cycle ifconditions allow.As soon as the liquid gas tanks areempty, petrol operation isautomatically engaged until theignition is switched off.When switching automaticallybetween petrol or gas operation, abrief delay of engine tractive powermay be noticeable.Every six months, run the petrol tankdown until control indicator Yilluminates, then refuel. This helpsmaintain fuel quality and systemfunction for petrol operation.Fill the tank completely at regularintervals to prevent corrosion in thetank.
Faults and remediesIf gas mode is not possible, check thefollowing:● Is there enough liquid gas
present?● Is there enough petrol present for
starting?
Due to extreme temperatures incombination with the gascomposition, it may take slightlylonger before the system switchesfrom petrol to gas mode.In extreme situations, the system mayalso switch back to petrol mode if theminimum requirements are notfulfilled. If conditions allow, it might bepossible to manually switch back toliquid gas operation.Seek the assistance of a workshop inthe event of all other faults.
Caution
Repairs and adjustments may onlybe made by trained specialists inorder to maintain the safety andwarranty on the LPG system.
Liquid gas is given a particular odour(odorised) so that any leaks can bedetected easily.

Wheels and tyres
Tyre condition, wheel conditionDrive over edges slowly and at rightangles if possible. Driving over sharpedges can cause tyre and wheeldamage. Do not trap tyres on the kerbwhen parking.Regularly check the wheels fordamage. Seek the assistance of aworkshop in the event of damage orunusual wear.We recommend not swapping thefront wheels with the rear wheels andvice versa, as this can affect vehiclestability. Always use less worn tyreson the rear axle.
Winter tyresWinter tyres improve driving safety attemperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.In accordance with country-specificregulations, affix the speed sticker inthe driver's field of view.
Tyre designationsE.g. 195/55 R 16 95 H195 : tyre width, mm55 : cross-section ratio (tyre height
to tyre width), %R : belt type: RadialRF : type: RunFlat16 : wheel diameter, inches91 : load index e.g. 91 is equivalent
to 615 kgH : speed code letter
Speed code letter:Q : up to 100 mphS : up to 112 mphT : up to 118 mphH : up to 130 mphV : up to 150 mphW : up to 168 mph
Choose a tyre appropriate for themaximum speed of your vehicle.The maximum speed is achievable atkerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus125 kg payload. Optional equipmentcould reduce the maximum speed ofthe vehicle.Performance 3 178.
Directional tyresDirectional tyres must be mounted sothat they rotate in the correctdirection. The proper rotationdirection is indicated by a symbol(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressureCheck the pressure of cold tyres atleast every 14 days and before anylong journey.Do not forget the spare wheel.This also applies to vehicles with tyrepressure monitoring system.Unscrew the valve cap.
Vehicle care 151
Tyre pressure 3 182.The tyre pressure information labelon the driver's door frame indicatesthe original equipment tyres and thecorrespondent tyre pressures.The tyre pressure data refers to coldtyres. It applies to summer and wintertyres.The ECO tyre pressure serves toachieve the smallest amount of fuelconsumption possible.Incorrect tyre pressures will impairsafety, vehicle handling, comfort andfuel economy and will increase tyrewear.Tyre pressures differ depending onvarious options.For the correct tyre pressure value,follow the procedure below:● Identify the engine identifier
code. Engine data 3 177.● Identify the respective tyre.
For the tyres approved for yourvehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate ofConformity provided with your vehicleor other national registrationdocuments.
The driver is responsible for correctadjustment of tyre pressure.
9 Warning
If the pressure is too low, this canresult in considerable tyre warm-up and internal damage, leading totread separation and even to tyreblow-out at high speeds.
9 Warning
For specific tyres therecommended tyre pressure asshown in the tyre pressure tablemay exceed the maximum tyrepressure as indicated on the tyre.Never exceed the maximum tyrepressure as indicated on the tyre.
If the tyre pressure must be reducedor increased, switch off ignition. Afteradjusting tyre pressure switch onignition and select the relevant settingon the page Tyre Load in the DriverInformation Centre 3 73.
Temperature dependencyThe tyre pressure depends on thetemperature of the tyre. Duringdriving, tyre temperature andpressure increase. Tyre pressurevalues provided on the tyreinformation label and tyre pressurechart are valid for cold tyres, whichmeans at 20 °C.The pressure increases by nearly1.5 psi for a 10 °C temperatureincrease. This must be consideredwhen warm tyres are checked.The tyre pressure value displayed inthe Driver Information Centre showsthe real tyre pressure. A cooled downtyre will show a decreased value,which does not indicate an air leak.
Tyre pressure monitoringsystemThe tyre pressure monitoring systemchecks the pressure of all four tyresonce a minute when vehicle speedexceeds a certain limit.
152 Vehicle care
Caution
Tyre pressure monitoring systemwarns only about low tyre pressurecondition and does not replaceregular tyre maintenance by thedriver.
All wheels must be equipped withpressure sensors and the tyres musthave the prescribed pressure.NoticeIn countries where the tyre pressuremonitoring system is legallyrequired, the use of wheels withoutpressure sensors will invalidate thevehicle type approval.
The current tyre pressures can beshown in the Vehicle InformationMenu in the Driver InformationCentre.The menu can be selected bypressing the buttons on the turnsignal lever.
Press MENU to select the VehicleInformation MenuX.
Turn the adjuster wheel to select thetyre pressure monitoring system.
System status and pressure warningsare displayed by a message with thecorresponding tyre flashing in theDriver Information Centre.The system considers the tyretemperature for the warnings.Temperature dependency 3 150.
A detected low tyre pressurecondition is indicated by the controlindicator w 3 71.If w illuminates, stop as soon aspossible and inflate the tyres asrecommended 3 182.
Vehicle care 153
If w flashes for 60-90 seconds thenilluminates continuously, there is afault in the system. Consult aworkshop.After inflating, some driving may berequired to update the tyre pressurevalues in the Driver InformationCentre. During this time w mayilluminate.If w illuminates at lower temperaturesand extinguishes after some driving,this could be an indicator forapproaching a low tyre pressurecondition. Check tyre pressure.Vehicle messages 3 79.If the tyre pressure must be reducedor increased, switch off ignition.Only mount wheels with pressuresensors, otherwise the tyre pressurewill not be displayed and willuminates continuously.A temporary spare wheel is notequipped with pressure sensors. Thetyre pressure monitoring system isnot operational for these tyres.Control indicator w illuminates. Forthe further three tyres, the systemremains operational.
The use of commercially-availableliquid tyre repair kits can impair thefunction of the system. Factory-approved repair kits can be used.Operating electronic devices or beingclose to facilities using similar wavefrequencies could disrupt the tyrepressure monitoring system.Each time the tyres are replaced, tyrepressure monitoring system sensorsmust be dismounted and serviced.For the screwed sensor; replacevalve core and sealing ring. For theclipped sensor; replace completevalve stem.
Vehicle loading statusAdjust tyre pressure to load conditionaccording to the tyre information labelor tyre pressure chart 3 182, andselect the appropriate setting in themenu Tyre Load in the DriverInformation Centre, VehicleInformation Menu 3 73. This setting isthe reference for the tyre pressurewarnings.
The Tyre Load menu only appears ifthe vehicle is in a standstill and theparking brake is applied. On vehicleswith automatic transmission theselector lever has to be in P.
Select:● Lo for comfort pressure up to
3 people.● Eco for Eco pressure up to
3 people.● Hi for full loading.

ConfirmationsConfirmation of service is recorded inthe Service and Warranty Booklet.The date and mileage is completedwith the stamp and signature of theservicing workshop.Make sure that the Service andWarranty Booklet is completedcorrectly as continuous proof ofservice is essential if any warranty orgoodwill claims are to be met, and isalso a benefit when selling thevehicle.
Service interval with remainingengine oil life durationThe service interval is based onseveral parameters depending onusage.The service display lets you knowwhen to change the engine oil.Service display 3 64.
Recommended fluids,lubricants and partsRecommended fluids andlubricantsOnly use products that meet therecommended specifications.
9 Warning
Operating materials arehazardous and could bepoisonous. Handle with care. Payattention to information given onthe containers.
Engine oilEngine oil is identified by its qualityand its viscosity. Quality is moreimportant than viscosity whenselecting which engine oil to use. Theoil quality ensures e.g. enginecleanliness, wear protection and oilaging control, whereas viscositygrade gives information on the oil'sthickness over a temperature range.
Dexos is the newest engine oil qualitythat provides optimum protection forpetrol engines. If it is unavailable,engine oils of other listed qualitieshave to be used. Recommendationsfor petrol engines are also valid forLiquified Petroleum Gas (LPG) andEthanol (E85) fuelled engines.Select the appropriate engine oilbased on its quality and on theminimum ambient temperature3 174.
Topping up engine oilEngine oils of different manufacturersand brands can be mixed as long asthey comply with the required engineoil quality and viscosity.Use of engine oil with onlyACEA A1/B1 or only A5/B5 quality isprohibited, since it can cause long-term engine damage under certainoperating conditions.Select the appropriate engine oilbased on its quality and on theminimum ambient temperature3 174.
Service and maintenance 171
Additional engine oil additivesThe use of additional engine oiladditives could cause damage andinvalidate the warranty.
Engine oil viscosity gradesThe SAE viscosity grade givesinformation of the thickness of the oil.Multigrade oil is indicated by twofigures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The firstfigure, followed by a W, indicates thelow temperature viscosity and thesecond figure the high temperatureviscosity.Select the appropriate viscosity gradedepending on the minimum ambienttemperature 3 174.All of the recommended viscositygrades are suitable for high ambienttemperatures.
Coolant and antifreezeUse only silicate-free long life coolant(LLC) antifreeze approved for thevehicle. Consult a workshop.The system is factory filled withcoolant designed for excellentcorrosion protection and frostprotection down to approx. -36 °C. In
northern countries with very lowtemperatures the factory filled coolantprovides frost protection down toapprox. -50 °C. This concentrationshould be maintained all year round.The use of additional coolantadditives that intend to give additionalcorrosion protection or seal againstminor leaks can cause functionproblems. Liability for consequencesresulting from the use of additionalcoolant additives will be rejected.
Brake and clutch fluidOver time, brake fluid absorbsmoisture which will reduce brakingeffectiveness. The brake fluid shouldtherefore be replaced at the specifiedinterval.

Vehicle data recordingand privacyEvent data recordersData storage modules in thevehicleA large number of electroniccomponents of your vehicle containdata storage modules temporarily orpermanently storing technical dataabout the condition of the vehicle,events and errors. In general, thistechnical information documents thecondition of parts, modules, systemsor the environment:● Operating conditions of system
components (e.g. filling levels).● Status messages of the vehicle
and its single components (e.g.number of wheel revolutions /rotational speed, deceleration,lateral acceleration).
● Dysfunctions and defects inimportant system components.
● Vehicle reactions in particulardriving situations (e.g. inflation ofan airbag, activation of thestability regulation system).
● Environmental conditions (e.g.temperature).
These data are exclusively technicaland help identifying and correctingerrors as well as optimizing vehiclefunctions.Motion profiles indicating travelledroutes cannot be created with thesedata.If services are used (e.g. repairworks, service processes, warrantycases, quality assurance),employees of the service network(manufacturer included) are able toread out this technical informationfrom the event and error data storagemodules applying special diagnosticdevices. If required, you will receivefurther information at theseworkshops. After an error has beencorrected, the data are deleted fromthe error storage module or they areconstantly overwritten.
188 Customer information
When using the vehicle, situationsmay occur in which these technicaldata related to other information(accident report, damages on thevehicle, witness statements etc.) maybe associated with a specific person -possibly, with the assistance of anexpert.Additional functions contractuallyagreed upon with the client (e.g.vehicle location in emergency cases)allow the transmission of particularvehicle data from the vehicle.
Radio FrequencyIdentification (RFID)RFID technology is used in somevehicles for functions such as tyrepressure monitoring and ignitionsystem security. It is also used inconnection with conveniences suchas radio remote controls for doorlocking/unlocking and starting, and in-vehicle transmitters for garage dooropeners.
