OperationThe seats can be adjusted for a short period
after unlocking the door with the remote con-
trol without the key in the ignition slot. Seat
adjustment is normally made when the ignition
is on and can always be made when the engine
is running.
NOTE \b
Only one of the power seat\fs controls
can be used at the same time.
\b The power seats have an overload pro-
tector that activates if a seat is blocked
by any object. If this occurs, switch off
the ignition (key in position
0) and wait
for a short period before operating the
seat again.

WARNING
Before starting the engine:
\b
Fasten the seat belt.
\b Check that the seat, steering wheel and
mirrors are adjusted properly.
\b Make sure the brake pedal can be
depressed completely. Adjust the seat
if necessary. 1. Insert the remote key into the ignition slot
with the buttons upward and the metallic
key blade pointing outward (not inserted
into the slot) 1
. 2. Push lightly on the remote key. It will be
automatically drawn into the ignition slot in
the correct position. 3.
Depress the brake pedal 2
. Press and
release the START/STOP ENGINE button.
The autostart function will operate the
starter motor until the engine starts.
The starter motor operates for a maximum
of 10 seconds. If the engine has not
started, repeat the procedure.
WARNING An extra mat on the driver\fs floor can cause
the accelerator and/or brake pedal to catch.
Check that the movement of these pedals is
not impeded. Not more than one protective
floor covering may be used at one time.
1
On vehicles with the optional keyless drive, it is only necessary to hav\
e a remote key in the passenger’s compartment.
2 If the vehicle is moving, it is only necessary to press the START/STOP E\
NGINE button to start the vehicle.

WARNING \b
Always remove the remote key from the
ignition slot when leaving the vehicle,
especially if there are children in the
vehicle.
\b Never remove the remote key from the
ignition slot while driving or when the
vehicle is being towed. The steering
lock could otherwise be activated, mak-
ing it impossible to steer the vehicle. On
vehicles with the optional keyless drive,
never remove the remote key from the
vehicle while driving or during towing.
\b Always place the gear selector in Park
and apply the parking brake before
leaving the vehicle. Never leave the
vehicle unattended with the engine run-
ning.
\b Always open garage doors fully before
starting the engine inside a garage to
ensure adequate ventilation. The
exhaust gases contain carbon monox-
ide, which is invisible and odorless but
very poisonous.NOTE \b
The idling speed can be noticeably
higher than normal during cold starts.
This is to enable emission control sys-
tem can reach normal operating tem-
perature as quickly as possible, which
helps reduce exhaust emissions 3
.
\b Keylock: Your vehicle is equipped with
a keylock system. When the engine is
switched off, the gear selector must be
in the Park position before the key can
be removed 4
from the ignition slot.CAUTION \b
When starting in cold weather, the auto-
matic transmission may shift up at
slightly higher engine speeds than nor-
mal until the automatic transmission
fluid reaches normal operating tem-
perature.
\b Do not race a cold engine immediately
after starting. Oil flow may not reach
some lubrication points fast enough to
prevent engine damage.
\b The engine should be idling when you
move the gear selector. Never acceler-
ate until after you feel the transmission
engage. Accelerating immediately after
selecting a gear will cause harsh
engagement and premature transmis-
sion wear.
\b Selecting
P or N when idling at a stand-
still for prolonged periods of time will
help prevent overheating of the auto-
matic transmission fluid.
Keyless drive*Follow steps 3 – 4 for starting the engine. 3
If the gear selector is in the D or R positions and the car is not moving, engine speed (rpm) will be lower\
and it will take longer for the engine to reach normal operating temper\
ature.
4 Does not apply to vehicles with the optional keyless drive.

into Drive with the right.
2. While pressing the throttle pedal to pull away, release the parking brake lever only
after the vehicle begins to move.

Introduction
The audio system is available in two versions:
High Performance and Premium Sound. The
system version is shown in the display when
the audio system is switched on.
If the audio system is on when the ignition is
switched off, it will come on automatically the
next time the ignition is put in mode
I or higher.
The audio system can be operated without a
key in the ignition slot for 15 minutes at a time
by pressing the POWER button (the driver\fs
door must be closed on vehicles with the
optional keyless drive).
Some functions are controlled from the menu
system in the center console. For more infor-
mation on menus, see page 122.

Remote key and ignition modesThe audio system can be used for 15 minutes
at a time if the remote key is not inserted in the
ignition slot.
NOTE To prevent unnecessary drain on the vehi-
cle\fs battery, remove the remote key from
the ignition slot if the audio system is used
when the engine is not running.
If the audio system is playing when the engine
is switched off, it will be on when the engine is
restarted.

168 1.
Use the thumb wheel to scroll until City
Safety is displayed.
2. Press the RESET button for approximately
1 second until Off is displayed.
WARNINGThe laser sensor emits light when the igni-
tion is in mode II or higher, even if City
Safety™ has been switched off.
To switch City Safety™ on again:
\b
Follow the same procedure as for switch-
ing City Safety™ off but select On by
pressing RESET.
or
\b Vehicles not equipped with keyless
drive: Press lightly on the remote key to
release it partially from the ignition slot.
Press the remote key into the ignition slot
again. Depress the brake pedal and press
the START/STOP ENGINE button to start
the engine. This restarts City Safety™

.
\b Vehicles equipped with the optional
keyless drive: Press the START/STOP
ENGINE button to switch off the engine.
Depress the brake pedal and press the
START/STOP ENGINE button to start the
engine. This restarts City Safety™.
See page 79 for information on ignition modes. City Safety™ will be automatically switched on
the next time the engine is started, even if it was
off when the engine was switched off.
Limitations
The sensor used by City Safety™ is designed
to detect cars and other larger motor vehicles
ahead of your vehicle in both daylight and dark-
ness.
However, there are certain limitations and the
laser sensor’s function may be reduced by, for
example, heavy rain or snowfall, or by dense
fog or thick, blowing dust or snow. Condensa-
tion, dirt, ice or snow on the windshield may
also interfere with the sensor’s function.
Objects such as warning flags hanging from
long objects on the roof or accessories such as
auxiliary lights or protective arches on the front
of the vehicle that are higher than the hood may
also impede the sensor’s function.
Braking distance to the vehicle ahead increa-
ses on slippery road surfaces, which may
reduce City Safety’s capacity to avoid a colli-
sion. In situations like this, the DSTC system
(see page 155) will help provide the best pos-
sible braking capacity and stability.
City Safety™ emits infrared light and measures
the way in which the light is reflected. There-
fore, vehicles or objects with low-reflective sur-faces may not be detected. Normally, the
license plate and taillight reflectors give the
rear section of a vehicle ahead sufficient reflec-
tive surfaces to be detected.
NOTE
\b
Keep the windshield in front of the laser
sensor free of ice, snow, dirt, etc. See
the illustration on page

167
\b Snow or ice on the hood deeper than
2 inches (5 cm) may obstruct the sen-
sor. Keep the hood free of ice and snow.
\b Do not mount or in any way attach any-
thing on the windshield that could
obstruct the laser sensor. Troubleshooting
If Windshield sensors blocked appears in
the information display, this indicates that the
City Safety™ laser sensor is obstructed in
some way and cannot detect vehicles ahead of
you, which means that the system is not func-
tioning.
However, this message will not be displayed in
all situations in which the sensor is obstructed.
For this reason, the driver must ensure that the
area of the windshield in front of the sensor is
always kept clean.
