Follow these instructions to jump start your
vehicle\fs dead battery or to jump start another
vehicle\fs dead battery using your vehicle. If the
12-volt auxiliary battery to be used is in another
vehicle, check that the vehicles are not touch-
ing to prevent premature completion of a cir-
cuit. Be sure to follow jump starting instruc-
tions provided for the other vehicle.
To jump start your vehicle: 1. Switch off the ignition (set the ignition to

folding cover.
4. Connect the black jumper cable to the aux-
iliary battery\fs negative (–) terminal and
to the ground point in your vehicle\fs engine
compartment (right engine mount at the
top, on the outer screw) .
5. Start the engine in the assisting vehicle, then start the engine in the vehicle with
dead battery.
6. After the engine has started, first remove the negative (–) terminal jumper cable
(black). Then remove the positive (+) termi-
nal jumper cable (red).WARNING PROPOSITION 65 WARNING!
Battery posts, terminals, and related acces-
sories contain lead and lead compounds,

110 the right to M (or to S on models equipped
with Sport mode).
\b To return to the D position from M or S,
move the gear selector to the left.
NOTE On models equipped with Sport mode, the
transmission will not switch to manual shift-
ing mode until the gear selector is moved
forward or rearward. The selected gear will
then be shown in the information display
(see page 73).
While driving
\b
If you select the M position while driving,
the gear that was being used in the Drive
position will also initially be selected in the
M position.
\b Move the gear selector forward (toward
"+") to shift to a higher gear or rearward
(toward "–") to shift to a lower gear.
\b If you hold the gear selector toward "–", the
transmission will downshift one gear at a
time and will utilize the braking power of
the engine. If the current speed is too high
for using a lower gear, the downshift will
not occur until the speed has decreased
enough to allow the lower gear to be used. \b
If you slow to a very low speed, the trans-
mission will automatically shift down.
Shiftlock – Neutral (N)If the gear selector is in the
N position and the
vehicle has been stationary for at least 3 sec-
onds (irrespective of whether the engine is run-
ning) then the gear selector is locked.
To be able to move the gear selector from N to
another gear position, the brake pedal must be
depressed and the ignition must be in posi-
tion II, see page 79.
Geartronic–starting on slippery surfacesSelecting 3rd gear in Geartronic’s manual shift-
ing mode can help provide better traction when
starting off on slippery surfaces. To do so:
1. Depress the brake pedal and move the
gear selector to the right from the D posi-
tion to M. The text in the instrument panel
display will change from D to 1.
2. Press the gear selector forward and release it (this selects 2nd gear). Press the
selector forward again and release it to
select 3rd gear.
3. Release the brake pedal and press gently on the accelerator pedal.
Shiftlock override If the vehicle cannot be driven, for example
because of a dead battery, the gear selector
must be moved from the P position so that the
vehicle can be moved

. Lift away the rubber mat on the floor of the
storage compartment behind the center
console and open the hatch.
Insert the key blade into the opening as far
as possible. Press the key blade down and
keep it held down. Move the gear selector
from the P position. For information on the
key blade, see page 55.

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.

able through the audio system controls on cen-
ter console.
USB/iPod connector
An iPod or MP3 player can be connected to the
audio system via the AUX or USB sockets in the
center storage compartment
An auxiliary device, such as an iPod, MP3
player or a USB flash drive can be connected
to the audio system via the sockets in the cen-
ter console storage compartment. A standard
cable from an iPod or MP3 player can be
routed under the cover to the AUX connector
in the storage compartment.
The USB socket provides current to or charges
the device connected (depending on the
device). A sound source must be chosen, depending on
the device that has been connected:
1.
Use MODE to select iPod or USB. The text
CONNECT DEVICE will be displayed.
2. Connect the device to the connector in the
center console storage compartment.
The text LOADING will be displayed while the
system loads the files (folder structure) on the
device. This may take a short time.
When information about the files (the folder
structure) on the device has been loaded, the
resulting list includes information on the artist,
genre and song title if this information is
included on the device.
To navigate in the folder structure, press
ENTER and scroll up and down the folders
using the arrow buttons (on the audio system
control panel or on the steering wheel keypad).
Press the right arrow button to select a folder.
Press the left arrow button to go up a level in
the folder structure. Press ENTER to go down
a level in the folder structure.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:
\b Turn the Tuning knob clockwise or coun-
terclockwise
\b Use the right or left arrow keys on the nav-
igation control to select the desired track. The arrow keys on the steering wheel key-
pad can also be used in the same way.
NOTE The system supports playback of files in the
most common versions of formats such as
mp3, wma, and wav. However, there may be
versions of these formats that the system
does not support.
The system also supports a number of
iPod® models produced in 2005 or later.
iPod® Shuffle is not supported.
USB flash driveTo simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
The system supports removable media that
uses the USB 2.0 standard and the FAT32
file system and can index up to 500 folders
and a maximum of 64,000 files. The device
must have at least 256 Mb of memory.
MP3 playerMany mp3 players have a file indexing system
that is not supported by the vehicle\fs audio
system. In order to use an mp3 player, the sys- G031959
