zAfter airbags deflate, you may notice a
burning smell, smoke and white powder
in the interior, which is normal. Although
they may cause skin or eye irritation,
these substances are non-toxic.
z Hazard warning lamps may flash and
locked doors may be unlocked
automatically when airbags deploy 3.
z The speeds, directions of movement and
deformation properties of the vehicles,
and the properties of the obstacle
concerned, determine the severity of the
accident and triggering of the airbags.
z The degree of damage to your vehicle
and the resulting repair costs alone are
not indicative that the criteria for
triggering of the airbags were met.
z Do not perform any modifications to the
components of the airbag systems, as
this will render the vehicle unroadworthy. z
We recommend having the steering
wheel, the instrument panel, all panelling
parts, the door seals, handles and the
front seats removed by a workshop.
z When disposing of the vehicle, please
observe the applicable safety
regulations. Take the vehicle to a
recycling company for disposal.

9 Warning
The systems can be triggered abruptly
and cause injury if they are handled
improperly.
9 Warning
Child restraint systems as well as other
heavy objects must never be carried on
the lap of passengers; risk of fatal injury.
9 Warning
No child restraint system may be
installed to the front passenger’s seat.
Danger to life.

Driving and operation132
Fuel filler cap
If replacing the fuel filler cap, be sure to use
the original fuel filler cap for your model, to
ensure full functionality.
Refuelling
Ensure suitable fuel is available before
driving in foreign countries. The fuel filler neck with bayonet cap is
located on the left rear side of the vehicle.
The tank flap is locked together with the
doors - see page 25.
Unlock doors, tailgate and tank flap by
pressing button q
on the remote control or
by pressing central locking switch m in the
driver’s door.
Open the tank flap by hand.
If, in cold weather, the tank flap does not
open, tap it and try again.
To unlock fuel filler cap: turn it anti-
clockwise.
If hissing occurs, wait until it stops before
completely unscrewing the fuel filler cap.
Remove fuel filler cap and place it in its
holder on the inside of the tank flap.
The fuel tank has a limiting system which
prevents overfilling of the tank. Correct refuelling is largely dependent on
correct operation of the dispensing pump:
z
Insert dispensing pump as far as it will go
and switch it on.
z After the first automatic cut-off, do not
fill the tank any further.
Replace the fuel filler cap and turn it
clockwise until you hear several clicks.
Close tank flap.
Wipe off any overflowing fuel immediately.
If fuel is spilt onto the vehicle, rinse the area
with clean, cold water as soon as possible,
to avoid permanent damage to painted
surfaces.
9 Warning
Care must be taken when dealing with
fuel.
Before refuelling, it is absolutely vital to
switch off the engi ne and any heating
systems with combustion chambers.
Switch off mobile phones.
Fuel is inflammable and explosive,
therefore avoid dealing with fuel near
naked flames and doing anything that
would generate sparks. No smoking!
This also applies where the smell of fuel is
noticeable. If the smell of fuel vapour
occurs in the vehicle itself, have the cause
remedied immediately by a workshop.

3. The location of front and rear jacking points is indicated by notches on the
bottom edge of the vehicle, under the
doors.4. Before positioning the jack, set it to the necessary height by rotating the eye by
hand.
Position jack at the front or rear jacking
point located nearest to the wheel
concerned so that the jack claw spans
the vertical base. Make sure it is properly
positioned.
The jack base must be on the ground
directly below the jacking point in a
manner that prevents it from slipping.5. Attach wrench to eye of threaded rod and turn crank to raise vehicle.
If this is not the case, carefully lower the
vehicle immediately and reposition the
jack.
Raise the vehicle until the wheel is just
clear of the ground.
6. Unscrew wheel nuts completely by turning anti-clockwise and wipe clean
with a cloth. Then apply a light coating
of grease to the cone of each wheel
nut. Do not grease the threads.
Put wheel nuts somewhere where the
threads will not be soiled.

The paintwork of your vehicle is exposed to
environmental influences, e.g. continuous
changes in weather conditions, industrial
waste gases and dust or thawing salts, so
wash and wax your vehicle regularly. When
using automatic car washes, select a
program which includes waxing.
Bird droppings, dead insects, resin, pollen
and the like should be cleaned off
immediately, as they contain aggressive
constituents which can cause paint
damage.
If using a car wash, comply with the
pertinent instructions of the car wash
manufacturer. The windscreen wipers and
tailgate wipers must be switched off –
see pages 92, 93. Remove detachable rod
antenna by unscrewing it.
Do not use high-pressure jet cleaners.
If you wash your vehicle by hand, make
sure that the insides of the wings are also
thoroughly rinsed out. Do not use
household dishwashing liquid, to avoid
removing wax from the paintwork.
Clean edges and folds on opened doors
and flaps as well as the areas they cover.
Thoroughly rinse off and leather-off the
vehicle. Rinse leather frequently. Use
separate leathers for paint and window
surfaces; remnants of wax on the windows
will impair vision.
Also wash aluminium trim parts, avoiding
the use of abrasive materials such as
automotive or chrome polish, steam or
caustic soap. Washing with water is
normally sufficient.
Observe national regulations.
