Voice control Fig. 33
Multifunction steering wheel: voice
control. The time during which the system is ready to
receive voice commands and execute them is
called dialogue. The system provides acous-
tic warnings and if necessary, will guide you
through the respective functions.
It is recommended to use the
Help menu the
first time that voice control is used in order to
familiarize yourself with this function.
Optimum operation of the voice commands
depends on several factors:
● Speak slowly and clearly, as far as possi-
ble. The system will not recognise words pro-
nounced unclearly, or words and numbers in
which syllables are omitted. ●
Speak with normal voice volume, without
exaggerated intonation or long pauses.
● Close the doors, windows and sunroof for
the purpose of dampening or insulating
against unwanted noise from the exterior. Do
not aim the air from the diffusers at the roof.
● If you are driving very fast, it is recommen-
ded that you speak a little louder.
● While talking, avoid making other noise in-
side the vehicle, i.e., occupants that are talk-
ing at the same time.
● Do not speak when the system is providing
information. »

– Unscrew the tank cap anti-clockwise and
place it on top of the tank flap ››› Fig. 107
.
– Insert the pump nozzle into the fuel feed
tube as far as it will go.
The fuel tank is full as soon as the automatic
filler nozzle cuts out ››› .
– Remove the pump nozzle from the fuel feed
tube and place it back on the pump.
– Screw the tank cap clockwise until it clicks
into place.
– Close the tank flap. Make sure you hear it
click into place.
– Check that the fuel flap is properly closed. CAUTION
● Switch off the auxiliary heater (heater and
independent heater) before filling the tank.
● The fuel tank is full as soon as the automat-
ic filler nozzle cuts out. Do not continue fill-
ing, as this will fill the expansion chamber. Note
The fuel tank capacity is around 55 litres, of
which 7 litres are the reserve. Unleaded petrol
Your vehicle must only be run on
unleaded
petrol that complies with the Standard EN
228 (in Germany, also DIN 51626 – 1, or E10
for unleaded petrol with 95 and 91 octane
rating (RON) or DIN 51626 – 2, or E5 for un-
leaded petrol with 95 and 98 RON).
Prescribed fuel – unleaded petrol (95/91
RON)
Use unleaded petrol with 95
RON. Unleaded
petrol with 91 RON can also be used, al-
though thi s
will result in a slight loss of pow-
er.
If, as an emergency measure, you have to fill
the tank with petrol with a lower RON to that
prescribed, use only moderate engine
speeds and light throttle. High engine speed
and full throttle can seriously damage the en-
gine! Fill up with petrol with the correct RON
as soon as possible.
Prescribed fuel – unleaded petrol (min. 95
RON)
Use unleaded petrol with 95 RON.
If u
nleaded petrol with 95 RON is not availa-
bl
e, you can fill up with petrol with 91 RON as
an emerg
ency measure. In this case, use only
moderate engine speeds and a light throttle.
High engine speed and full throttle can seri- ously damage the engine! Fill up with petrol
with the correct RON as soon as possible.
Petrol with a RON below
91 cannot be used,
even a
s an emergency measure. Risk of seri-
ously damaging the engine!
Unleaded petrol with higher RON
Unleaded petrol with a higher RON to that
prescribed can be used without limits.
In vehicles running on prescribed unleaded
petrol with 95/91 RON
, there is no notable
increase in power or lower fuel consumption
when petrol with a RON higher than 95
is
used.
In vehicles running on prescribed unleaded
petrol with min. 95 RON
, there is an increase
in power and a lower fuel consumption when
petrol with a RON higher than 95
is used.
Prescribed fuel – unleaded petrol (98/(95)
RON)
Use unleaded petrol with 98
RON. Unleaded
petrol with 95 RON can also be used, al-
though this will result in a slight loss of pow-
er.
If unleaded petrol with 98
or 95 RON is not
available, you can fill up with petrol with 91
RON as an emergency measure. In this case,
use only moderate engine speeds and a light
throttle. High engine speed and full throttle
