Driving and operating111
Master switchCaution
The air suspension system must
be switched off when the vehicle is being towed, jump‐started, raised
off the ground or transported.
Do not switch off the air
suspension system when driving.
The master switch is located on the
door pillar.

the vehicle into service mode. The indicator light will illuminate. When
service mode has been activated, the
air suspension master switch must be turned off.
To exit service mode, press button
i again for 5 seconds.
Fault If a fault is detected, i button will
flash intermittently. If the service
mode has been activated and there is a fault h, S and R buttons will flash
simultaneously.
Have the cause of the fault remedied by a workshop.Engine exhaust9 Danger
Engine exhaust gases contain
poisonous carbon monoxide,
which is colourless and odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust gases enter the interior
of the vehicle, open the windows.
Have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop.
Avoid driving with an open load
compartment, otherwise exhaust
gases could enter the vehicle.
Diesel particle filter
The diesel particle filter system filters
harmful soot particles out of the
exhaust gases. The system includes
a self-cleaning function that runs
automatically during driving without
any notification. The filter is cleaned
by periodically burning off the soot
particles at high temperature. This
process takes place automatically
and the emission of smells and
smoke during this process is normal.
Under certain driving conditions, e.g.
short distances, the system cannot
clean itself automatically.
If cleaning of the filter is required and if previous driving conditions did not
enable automatic cleaning, it will be
indicated by illumination of control
indicator A 3 79. Seek the
assistance of a workshop immediately.
Catalytic converter
The catalytic converter reduces the
amount of harmful substances in the
exhaust gases.
126Driving and operating
FaultIf the system detects an operatingfault, a continuous acoustic alarm will sound for approx. 5 seconds when
selecting reverse gear. Consult a
workshop to have the cause of the
fault remedied.Caution
When reversing, the area should
be free from obstacles which could impact on the underside of the
vehicle.
Impact to the rear axle, which may
not be visible, could lead to
uncharacteristic changes in the
vehicle handling. In the event of
such an impact, consult a
workshop.
Rear view camera
The camera is typically installed
under the number plate moulding with a display monitor fitted to the driver's
sun visor.
Functionality
The rear view camera system
enables the driver to view the rear of
the vehicle in the display monitor
whilst reversing.
The system can be activated or
deactivated by selecting the
Start/Stop button located on the right-
hand side of the display monitor.
The remaining buttons on the monitor enable the user to select source
AV1 or AV2 and adjust the brightness
and contrast of the display monitor.
To achieve the optimum visibility, the
rear view camera must not be
obscured by dirt, snow or ice.9 Warning
The system is intended as a
reversing aid and does not replace
driver vision.
Do not let this feature tempt you
into take risks when reversing.
Failure to use proper care when
reversing may result in damage to
the vehicle, injury, or death.
Always check the outside,
rearview mirrors and glance over
your shoulder before reversing.
The driver assistance systems do not relieve the driver from full
responsibility for vehicle
operation.
