Unlocking and locking
42The safe securing system along with the anti-theft alarm system* are, however, deac- tivated during these 30 seconds. When the vehicle is unlocked or locked, the interior lights in the door contact are auto- matically switched on or off. Display of the locking The turn signal lights flash once to confir
m that the vehicle has been correctly locked.
If the vehicle is locked by pr
essing the button and some doors or the boot lid are
not closed, the turn signal lights flash only after closing.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-vated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as it is then not possible to open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get into th
e vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note

Operate the radio remote control only when
the doors and boot lid are closed and
you have visual contact with the vehicle.
Once in the vehicle, you must not press the lock button
 of the master key before
inserting the key into the ignition lock in
order to avoid the vehicle being inadvertently
locked and the anti-theft alarm system* being switched on. Should this happen, press the unlock button
 of the master key.
Syncronisation of the remote controlIf the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuatin
g the remote control system then it is
possible that the code in the key and the co
ntrol unit in the vehicle are no longer
synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-operated key are actuated a number of times outside of the operative
range of the equipment or the battery on
the remote control was replaced. This means it is necessary to
synchronise the code as follows:

press any button on the remote control;

pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1
minute.Anti-theft alarm system*DescriptionThe anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against people seeking to break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warning signals if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle. How is the alarm
system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated au
tomatically when the
unlocked vehicle is
locked with the key inserted in the driver's
door or with the remote control key. It is
activated 30 seconds after locking the door. How is the alarm system deactivated? The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated if
the vehicle is unlocked by only using the
radio remote control. The anti-theft alarm system is reactivated if the vehicle is not opened within 30 seconds after transmitting the radio signal. Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the ke
y into the driver door you then have to
insert the key into the ignition lock and sw
itch the ignition on within 15 seconds after
opening the door in order to deactivate the anti-theft alarm system. The
alarm will be
triggered
if you do
not switch on
the ignition within 15 seconds.
When is the alarm triggered? The following security areas of
the locked vehicle are monitored:

bonnet;

boot lid;

doors;

ignition lock;


The handbrake warning is acti
vated if you drive at a speed of more than 6 km/h for
more than 3 seconds.
WARNING

Please note that the handbrake must be fully released. A handbrake which
is only partially released can result in the rear brakes overheating which will have a negative effect on the operation of
the brake system - risk of accident! In
addition this can result in premature wear of the rear brake pads.
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle. The children might, for
example, release the handbrake or take
the vehicle out of gear. The vehicle
might then move off - risk of accident!
Caution
After the car has come to a stop, always firs
t of all apply the handbrake firmly before
then additionally engaging a gear (manual gearbox) or moving the selector lever into position
P (automatic gearbox).
Parking aid*The parking aid provides a warning of obstacles behind the vehicle.The audible parking aid determines the di
stance between the rear bumper and an
obstacle located behind the vehicle with the
aid of ultrasound sensors. The sensors are
integrated in the rear bumper.
Range of sensors The clearance warning begins at a distance
of about 160 cm from the obstacle (area
 fig. 97
). The interval between the warning si
gnals becomes shorter as the clearance
is reduced. A continuous tone sounds from
a distance of approx. 30
cm (area ) - danger area.
You should not reverse any further after this signal sounds!
If the vehicle is
equipped with a factory-fitted
towing device*, the border of the danger area starts -
continuous tone - 5 cm further behind th
e vehicle. The vehicle can be extended
through an installed deta
chable towing device.
Activating The parking aid is activated automatically when
reverse gear
is engaged and the igni-
tion is turned on. This
is confirmed by a brief acknowledgement signal.
Deactivating The parking aid is deactivated by disengaging the reverse gear or by switching the igni- tion off.
WARNING

The parking aid is not a substitute for
the driver paying proper attention and
it is always the driver's responsibility
to take care when parking the vehicle or
carrying out similar manoeuvres.
You should therefore satisfy yourself, before reversing, that there is no small
obstacle, such as a rock, thin post, trai
ler drawbar etc., behind your vehicle.
Such an obstacle might not be within the range detected by the sensors.
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of the parking aid. Thus, these objects or people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.
Note

The parking aid does not operate if you
are towing a trailer (applies to models
which feature a factory-fitted towing device*).
A system fault is indicated if a warning signal sounds for about 5 seconds after
switching the ignition on and engaging reverse gear and there is no obstacle close to

D and
S the gear you have already engaged will be addition-
ally displayed on the display. - Parklock The driven wheels are locked me
chanically in this position.
The Parklock must only be engage
d when the vehicle is stationary

.
If you wish to move the selector lever into
or out of this position, you must press the
Shiftlock button in the handle of the select
or lever and at the same time depress the
brake pedal. - Reverse gear Reverse gear must only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary and the engine idling

.
The brake pedal must be depressed and at
the same time the Shiftlock must be
pressed, if you wish to obtain the selector lever positions
R, P or N.
When the ignition is switched on an
d the selector lever is in position
R, the reverse
lights will come on. - Neutral The transmission is in Neutral in this position. The brake pedal must be depressed (if the le
ver is in its position for longer than 2
seconds) in order to move the selector lever out of the position
N into the position
D,
with the ignition switched on, on a vehicle travelling at less than 5 km/hour or on a stationary vehicle. - Position for driving forward When the selector lever is in this position
, the forward gears are shifted up and down
automatically in line with engine lo
ad, vehicle speed and the dynamic shift
programme. You must depress the brake pedal if you wish to move into position
D from
N when the
vehicle is travelling at less th
an 5 km/hour or is stationary

.
In certain circumstances (e.g. when driving
in mountainous regions or when towing a
trailer) it may be beneficial to
select the manual shift programme
page 102 for a
short time in order to adapt the gearbox
ratios manually to the driving situations.
- Position for sporty style of driving Shifting up later into a higher gear makes it
possible to fully exploit the power potential
of the engine. The gearbox also then shifts down at higher engine speeds as in the posi-tion
D.
The gearbox does not shift into the 6th gear in the position
S, because the maximum
speed is reached with the 5th gear
7).
The Shiftlock on the selector lever grip mu
st be pressed when moving the selector
lever out of the position
D into the position
S.
WARNING

Never move the selector lever into position R or P when driving - risk of an
accident!
When the engine is running and the vehi
cle is stationary, it is necessary to
hold the car with the brake pedal in all the positions of the selector lever (except P and N) since the power transmission is never completely interrupted, also not when the engine is idling - the vehicle creeps. 
You must on no account unintentionally operate the throttle (e.g. by hand
from the engine compartment) if a driv
e position is engaged when the car is
stationary. The vehicle would otherwise
immediately start o
ff - also when the
handbrake is firmly applied - risk of an accident!
You must move the selector lever into position P and firmly apply the hand-
brake first before you or any other person opens the bonnet and starts working on the engine when it is running - risk of accident! It is also essential to observe all warnings
page 166, “Working in the engine compartment”.

You will place great stresses on the power steering system if the steering is turned to full lock when the vehicle is stationary. Turn
ing the steering to full lock in such a situa-
tion will be accompanied by noises. It is still possible to fully steer the vehicle if the power steering fails or if the engine is not running (vehicle being towed in). The only
difference is that gr
eater physical effort
is required. It is possible that the hydraulic pump of
the power steering will not run due to the low
vehicle network voltage if the battery has gone flat and the engine must started with the help off jump leads. This condition will
be indicated by lighti
ng up of the warning
light. The power steering operates again if the ba
ttery is charged to a specific range when
engine is running. It also op
erates again, if the engine
can be started with its own
battery. If there is a fault in the power steering, the warning light lights up in the instrument cluster
 page 26.
Caution
Do not leave the steering at full lock fo
r more than 15 seconds when the engine is
running - risk of damagi
ng the power steering!
Note
Have the steering inspected as soon as possible by a specialist garage if there is a leak or fault in the system.
Tyre pressure monitoring system*The tyre pressure monitoring system compares with the aid of the ABS sensors the speed and also the rolling circumference of the individual wheels. If the tyre inflation pressure is significantly changed and thus the rolling circumference of a wheel, the warning light
 lights up in the instrument cluster
page 31. The tyre pressure moni-
toring system functions late or too sensitively if:
the structure of the tyre is damaged,

the vehicle is loaded to one side or with a load on the roof,

the wheels of an axle are loaded heavily (e.g. when towing a trailer or when driving
uphill or downhill),
the vehicle is operated in unfavourable wi
nter conditions or
on an unfirm ground,

snow chains or emergency wheel* are mounted,

the driver has a sporty style of driving (with sharp acceleration and high speed
when cornering). Basic setting of the system After changing the tyre inflation pressures
or after changing one or several wheels, a
basic setting of the system mu
st be carried
out as follows.

Inflate all tyres to the specified inflation pressure
page 178.

Switch on the ignition.


Driving and the EnvironmentThe first 1 500 kilometres and then afterwardsA new engine The engine has to be run in du
ring the first 1 500 kilometres.
Up to 1 000 kilometres– Do not drive faster than 3/4 of the maximum speed of the gear in use, that is 3/4 of
the maximum permissi
ble engine speed.
– Do not use full throttle.– Avoid high engine revolutions.– Do not tow a trailer.From 1 000 up to 1 500 kilometres– Increase the power output of the engine
gradually
up to the full speed of the gear
engaged, that is up to the maxi
mum permissible engine revolutions.
During the first operating hours the engine ha
s higher internal friction than later until
all of the moving parts have harmonized. Th
e driving style which you adopt during the
first approx.1 500 kilometres plays a decisive
part in the success of running in your
vehicle. You should not drive at unnecessarily
high engine revolutions
even after the
running-in period is complete
. The maximum permissible en
gine speed is marked by
the beginning of the red zone on the scale of the revolutions counter. Shift up into the next higher gear on a vehi
cle fitted with manual gear
box before the red zone is
reached. During acceleration
(depressing the accelerator)
exceptionally
high engine
speeds are automatically reduced, yet the engine is not protected against too high engine speeds which are caused by incorrectly shifting down the gears resulting in a sudden increase of the engine speeds above the permitted maximum revolutions which can lead to engine damage. For a vehicle fitted with a manual gearbox the
converse situation also applies: Do not
drive at engine revolutions which are
too low
. Shift down as soon as the engine is no
longer running smoothly.
Caution
All the speed and engine revolution figures ap
ply only when the engine is at its normal
operating temperature. Never rev up an engine which is cold, neither when the vehicle is stationary nor when driving in individual gears.
For the sake of the environment
Not driving at unnecessari
ly high engine revolutions and
shifting to a higher gear as
early as possible are ways to minimise fuel consumption, operating noise levels as well as protects the environment and contributes
to a longer life and reliability of the
engine.New tyresNew tyres have to be “run in” since they do
not offer optimal grip at first. You should
take account of this fact for the first 500
kilometres and drive pa
rticularly carefully.
New brake padsAllow for the fact that new brake pads do no
t achieve their full braking efficiency until
approximately 200 kilometres. New brake pads must be first “run in” before they develop their optimal friction force. You ca
n, however, compensate for this slightly
reduced braking force by increasing the pressure on the brake pedal. This guideline also applies to any new brake pads installed at a future date.During the running-in pe
riod, you should avoi
d excessive stre
sses on the brakes. This
includes, for example, violent braking, part
icularly from very high speeds, and also
when crossing mountain passes.
