Visual warning signal, collision risk
Sensor
The radar sensor detects vehicles ahead that are moving in the same direction as your vehicle. In the event of a
collision risk, you will be alerted by a red warning light and an audible warning signal.
If the risk of collision increases after the warning, brake support is activated.
The brake support prepares the brake system for rapid braking and the brakes are applied gently, which may be
noticeable. If the brake pedal is depressed quickly then braking is implemented with full brake function, even if the
force on the pedal is light.
151 04 Comfort and driving pleasure
Collision warning system (option)
The collision warning system is active at speeds above approximately 5 mph (7 km/h).
Limitations
The visual warning signal may be difficult to see in strong sunlight or when sunglasses are being worn. For this reason
always activate the audible warning signal in such conditions.
NOTE
The visual warning signal may be temporarily disengaged in the event of high passenger compartment temperature
due to strong sunlight, etc. If this occurs, the audible warning signal will be used, even if it has been deactivated in
the menu system.
Warnings may not appear if the distance to the vehicle ahead is very small or if steering wheel and pedal movements
are large, for example, due to a very active driving style.
The collision warning system uses the same radar sensors as adaptive cruise control. For more information on the radar
sensor and its limitations, see page 146
.
WARNING
In certain situations, the system cannot provide warnings, the warning may be delayed, or false warnings may be
given if traffic conditions make it impossible for the radar sensor to detect the vehicle ahead.
If no warning is given, no brake support is provided.

At highway driving speeds, fuel consumption will be lower with the air conditioning on and the windows closed
than with the air conditioning off and the windows open.
Using the onboard trip computer's fuel consumption modes can help you learn how to drive more economically.
Other factors that decrease gas mileage are:
Dirty air cleaner
Dirty engine oil and clogged oil filter
Dragging brakes
Incorrect front end alignment
Some of the above mentioned items and others are checked at the standard maintenance intervals.
WARNING
Driving with the trunk open : Driving with the trunk open could lead to poisonous exhaust gases entering the
passenger compartment. If the trunk must be kept open for any reason, proceed as follows:
Close the windows
Set the ventilation system control to air flow to floor, windshield and side windows and the blower control to its
highest setting.
Weight distribution affects handling
At the specified curb weight your vehicle has a tendency to understeer, which means that the steering wheel has to be
turned more than might seem appropriate for the curvature of a bend. This ensures good stability and reduces the risk
of rear wheel skid. Remember that these properties can alter with the vehicle load. The heavier the load in the cargo
area, the less the tendency to understeer.
Handling, roadholding
Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pressure all affect vehicle handling. Therefore, check that the tires are inflated to
the recommended pressure according to the vehicle load. See the "Tire pressure" section. Loads should be distributed
so that capacity weight

or maximum permissible axle loads are not exceeded.
Driving through water
The vehicle can be driven through water up to a depth of approximately 9 in. (25 cm), at a maximum speed of 6 mph
(10 km/h).
Take particular care when driving through flowing water.
Clean the electrical connections for trailer wiring after driving in mud or water
When driving through water, maintain low speed and do not stop in the water.
WARNING
After driving through water, press lightly on the brake pedal to ensure that the brakes are functioning normally.
Water or mud can make the brake linings slippery, resulting in delayed braking effect.
