power management
While the vehicle is moving, this function distrib
utes the available power to the various electrical
components and systems according to their re
quirements. The power management ensures
that on-board systems do not consume more
electrical power than the alternator can supply,
and thus maintains the maximum possible bat
tery power Level.
ijJ Note
- The power management system is not able
to overcome the given physical Limits.
Please remember that the power and Life of
the battery are Limited.
- If the indicator Lamp ril c:> page 13 appears,
the starting ability may be impaired.
Points to remember
Starting ability has first priority.
Short trips, city traffic and Low temperatures all
place a heavy Load on the battery . In these condi
tions a Large amount of power is consumed, but
only a small amount is supplied. The situation is
also critical if electrical equipment is in use when
the engine is not running. In this case power is
consumed when none is being generated.
In these situations you will be aware that the
power management system is intervening to con
trol the distribution of electrical power.
When the vehicle is parked for long periods
If you do not drive your vehicle for a period of
several days or weeks, the power management
will gradually shut off the on-board systems one
by one, or reduce the amount of current they are
using. This Limits the amount of power consumed
and helps to ensure reliable starting even after a
Long period. Certain convenience features, such
as remote control unlocking, may not be availa
ble. These functions will be restored when you
switch on the ignition and start the engine. Intelligent
technology
With the engine switched off
If you Listen to the radio or use other electrical
equipment when the engine is not running, this
will discharge the battery.
A message will appear on the infotainment dis
play before the battery power drops to a Level
where the starting ability is impaired.
This message warns you that the system you are
using will soon be switched off automatically.
You should therefore start the engine if you wish
to continue using the system.
When the engine is running
Although the alternator generates electrical pow
er, the battery can still become discharged while
the vehicle is being driven. This can occur when a
Lot of power is being consumed but only a small
amount supplied, especially if the battery is not
fully charged initially.
To restore the necessary energy balance, the sys
tem will then temporarily shut off the electrical
components that are using a Lot of power, or re
duce the current they are consuming. Heating
systems in particular use a Large amount of elec
trical power. If you notice, for instance, that the
seat heating* or the rear window heater is not
working, they may have been temporarily switch
ed off or regulated to a Lower heat output. These
systems will be available again as soon as suffi
cient electrical power is available.
You may also notice that the engine runs at a
slightly faster idling speed. This is quite normal,
and no cause for concern. The increased idling
speed allows the alternator to meet the greater
power requirement and charge the battery at the
same time.
Information saved in the
control units
The vehicle is fitted in the factory with electronic
control units that, among other things, control
the engine and the gearbox. The control units al
so monitor the exhaust system and the airbags.
The control units continually analyse data rele-
vant to the vehicle while you are driving. In the

116 How
to help the system understand you
Speak clearly in a normal volume. Speak louder if
you are driving fast.
Speak in a normal tone without long pauses.
Avoid speaking when the speech dialogue system
is saying a cue.
Close doors, windows and sun roof* to reduce
background noise. Make sure that passengers are
not talking when you say a command.
Keep the air outlets of the air distribution system
pointed away from the microphone, which is fit
ted in the vicinity of the front interior lights in
the headliner.
The system should only be operated by the driver,
since the handsfree microphone is directed to
wards the driver.

sponsibility for the safety of the vehicle and
other road users. For this reason, you should
only use the functions in a manner that al
lows you to maintain control of the vehicle
in all situations -accident risk!
- The speech dialogue system must not be
used in cases of emergency, since the voice
changes in stressful situations. This could
result in a failed or delayed telephone con
nection. Always dial emergency numbers
manually!
{tI)) Note
- The dialogue is paused when an incoming
telephone call is received; you can continue
the dialogue by ignoring the call. If you an-
swer the call, the dialogue will be cancelled.
