CAUTION:
•Do not refuel with the engine
running*. Turn the ignition off or to
position I. If the ignition is on, an
incorrect reading could occur in the
fuel gauge.
•After refueling, close the fuel filler cap
by turning it clockwise until it clicks
into place *.
•Allow for fuel expansion by not
overfilling the tank. Overfilling could
also cause damage to the emission
control systems.
•Avoid spilling gasoline when refueling.
In addition to causing damage to the
environment, gasolines containing
alcohol can cause damage to painted
surfaces, which may not be covered
under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
•Do not use gasolines containing
methanol (methyl alcohol, wood
alcohol). This practice can result in
vehicle performance deterioration and
can damage critical parts in the fuel
system. Such damage may not be
covered under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.

and is completely closed after refueling.
Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot
weather.

Automatic transmission (Geartronic)
Manual shifting - Geartronic
You can move the gear selector freely between
the (MAN)ual and (D)rive positions while
driving. Gears 2, 3, 4, and 5 have a "lock-up"
function which reduces engine speed and helps
save fuel.

While driving
If you select the (MAN)ual position while
driving, the gear that was being used in the
(D)rive position will also initially be selected
in (MAN)ual position.

W Winter/Wet driving mode -
enhanced vehicle traction
Please refer to the information on page 95.
Sport mode (R-models only)
R-models are equipped with a (S)port button
that can be used to engage/disengage the Sport
shifting mode. An indicator light in the button
will go on when Sport mode is engaged.
With Sport mode engaged, the transmission
will shift up at higher rpm in first and second
gears, and will also shift down at higher rpm
for more immediate engine response during
acceleration and deceleration.

Load carriers (models with rails)
Load carrier cover
The car's ignition key or the stud on the edge
of the supplied torque wrench can be used to
undo or tighten the cover. Turn a quarter turn
(90 degrees). See illustration.
Fitting the load carriers
(accessory)
Make sure that the load carrier is pressed
firmly out against the roof rail. Screw the load
carrier in place. Use the supplied torque
wrench and tighten to the mark on the wrench
(corresponding to 6 Nm). See illustration.
Position of load carriers
Make sure that the wing-shaped load carriers
are installed on the roof rails with the rounded
edge forward (see the inset illustration above).
The load carriers are identical and can be
placed anywhere along the roof rails.

WARNING!
•Do not connect the jumper cable to any part of the fuel system or
to any moving parts. Avoid touching hot manifolds.
•Never expose the battery to open flame or electric spark.
•Do not smoke near the battery.
•Batteries generate hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive.
•Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do not allow battery fluid to
contact eyes, skin, fabrics or painted surfaces. If contact occurs,
flush the affected area immediately with water. Obtain medical
help immediately if eyes are affected.

If the 12-volt auxiliary battery to be used is in another car, check that the
cars are not touching to prevent premature completion of a negative
circuit. Be sure to follow jump starting instructions provided for the
