30 seconds. If engine does not start,
wait 10 seconds before repeating starting procedure.
Ensure the engine oil is of the correct
viscosity, the correct fuel is used,
vehicle services are performed
regularly and the battery is sufficiently charged.
Overrun cut-off The fuel supply is automatically cut-
off during overrun, i.e. when the
vehicle is driven with a gear engaged but accelerator is released.Stop-start system
The stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emissions. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as the
vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, e.g. at a traffic light or in a
traffic jam. It starts the engine
automatically as soon as the clutch is
depressed. A vehicle battery sensor
ensures that an Autostop is only
performed if the vehicle battery is
sufficiently charged for a restart.
Activation
The stop-start system is available as
soon as the engine is started, the
vehicle starts-off and the conditions
as stated below in this section are
fulfilled.Deactivation
Deactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing the eco button.
The deactivation is indicated when
the LED in the button extinguishes.
Autostop
If the vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
■ Depress the clutch pedal
■ set the lever to neutral
■ release the clutch pedal
The engine will be switched off while
the ignition stays on.

126Driving and operating
If the selector lever is shifted out of
neutral before depressing the clutch
first, control indicator - illuminates.
Control indicator - 3 89.
Restart of the engine by the
stop-start system
The selector lever must be in neutral to enable an automatic restart.
If one of the following conditions occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will be restarted automatically
by the stop-start system.
■ The stop-start system is manually deactivated
■ the bonnet is opened
■ the driver's seat belt is unfastened and the driver's door is opened
■ the engine temperature is too low
■ the charging level of the vehicle battery is below a defined level
■ the brake vacuum is not sufficient
■ the vehicle is driven at least at walking speed
■ the defrosting function is activated■ the climate control system requests
an engine start
■ the air conditioning is manually switched on
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop
during restart might be noticeable.
Parking ■ Do not park the vehicle on an easily
ignitable surface. The high
temperature of the exhaust system
could ignite the surface.
■ Always apply the electrical parking brake.
Pull switch m.
For maximum force, e.g. parking
with a trailer or on inclines, pull
switch m twice.
■ Switch off the engine and turn the ignition key to position LOCK, push
key into ignition switch and remove.
Turn the steering wheel until the
steering wheel lock is felt to
engage.For vehicles with automatic
transmission, depress foot brake
and shift into P before pushing key
into ignition switch and removing.
■ If the vehicle is on a level surface or
uphill slope, engage first gear ormove the selector lever to P before
switching off the ignition. On an
uphill slope, turn the front wheels
away from the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill slope, engage reverse gear or move the
selector lever to P before switching
off the ignition. Turn the front
wheels towards the kerb.
■ Lock the vehicle with button p on
the radio remote control 3 20 and
activate the anti-theft alarm system 3 24.

6. Press the on/off button to turn the
tyre repair kit on. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
The pressure gauge briefly shows a high pressure while the sealant
canister is emptying. Then the
pressure starts to drop.
All of the sealant is pumped into
the tyre. Then the tyre is inflated.
7. Inflate the tyre to the recommended inflation pressure
using the pressure gauge. The
prescribed tyre pressure should
be obtained within 10 minutes
3 207 . When the correct pressure
is obtained, switch off the
compressor.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within 10 minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for 10 minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Drain excess tyre pressure with
the button next to the pressure
gauge.
Do not run the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes.
8. Detach the tyre repair kit and replace the tyre valve cap.
9. Remove any excess sealant using a cloth.
10. Take the label indicating maximum permitted speed from
the sealant canister and affix in
the driver's field of view.
11. Continue driving immediately so that sealant is evenly distributed
in the tyre. After driving approx.
6 miles (but no more than 10 minutes) stop and check tyre
pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
slightly, set it to the correct value.
Repeat the procedure until there
is no more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen by
more than 10 psi, the vehicle must
