CTA (Cross Traffic Alert)*
CTA (Cross Traffic Alert) is a driver aid intended to warn about crossing traffic whenthe car is reversing. CTA is a supplement toBLIS (p. 253).
Activate/deactivate CTACTA is activated when the engine is started.This is confirmed by the indicator lamps forBLIS in the door panels flashing once.
On/Off for parking assistance and CTA sensors.
The CTA function can be deactivated with the Parking assistance (p. 240) On/Off button.The BLIS lamp flashes once on activation
WARNING
CTA is a supplementary aid and does not work in all situations. CTA is no substitute for a safe driving style and the use of rearview and door mirrors. CTA can never replace the driver's respon- sibility and attention - it is always the driv-er's responsibility to reverse in a safe man-ner.
When CTA operates
Principle for CTA.CTA supplements the BLIS function by being able to see crossing traffic from the side dur-ing reversing, such as when reversing out of aparking space. CTA is primarily designed to detect vehicles. In favourable conditions, it may also be ableto detect smaller objects, such as cyclistsand pedestrians.

Alcolock calibration takes place inaccordance with each market's limit value inforce for driving legally.

Calibration and serviceThe Alcolock must be checked and calibrated at a workshop 2
every 12 months.
30 days before recalibration is necessary the combined instrument panel shows the mes- sage
Alcoguard Calibr. required. If calibra-
tion is not carried out within these 30 days then normal engine starting will be blocked -only starting with the Bypass function willthen be possible, see the following heading"Emergency situation". The message can be cleared by pressing the send button (3) once. Otherwise it goes outon its own after approx. 2 minutes but thenreappears each time the engine is started - only recalibration at a workshop 2
can clear
the message permanently.
Cold or hot weatherThe colder the weather the longer it takes before the Alcolock is ready for use:
Temperature (ºC)Maximum heat-
ing time (sec- onds)
+10 to +8510
-5 to +1060
-40 to -5180
At temperatures below -20 ºC or above +60 ºC the Alcolock requires additional powersupply. The combined instrument panel shows
Alcoguard insert power cable. In
which case, connect the power supply cable from the glovebox and wait until indicatorlamp (6) is green. In extremely cold weather the heating time can be reduced by taking the Alcolockindoors.
Emergency situationIn the event of an emergency situation or theAlcolock is out of order, it is possible tobypass the Alcolock in order to drive the car.
NOTE
All Bypass activation is logged and saved in memory, see Recording data (p. 16).
After the Bypass function has been activated the combined instrument panel shows
Alcoguard Bypass enabled the whole time
while driving and can only be reset by a work- shop 2
.
The Bypass function can be tested without the error message being logged - in whichcase, carry out all the steps without startingthe car. The error message is cleared whenthe car is locked. When the Alcolock is installed, either theBypass or Emergency function is selected asthe bypassing option. This setting can be changed afterwards at a workshop
2
.
Activating the Bypass function
• Depress and hold the left-hand stalk switch
OK button and the button for haz-
ard warning flashers simultaneously forapprox. 5 seconds - the combined instru- ment panel first shows
Bypass activated
Wait 1 minute and then Alcoguard
Bypass enabled - after which the engine
can be started.
This function can be activated several times. The error message shown during driving can only be cleared at a workshop 2
.
Activating the Emergency function • Depress and hold the left-hand stalk switch
OK button and the button for haz-
ard warning flashers simultaneously forapprox. 5 seconds - the combined instru- ment panel shows
Alcoguard Bypass
enabled and the engine can be started.
This function can be used once, after which a reset must be made at a workshop 2
.

1. Insert the remote control key in the igni-
tion switch and press it in to its end posi- tion. Note that if the car is equipped withAlcolock* then a breath test must first beapproved before the engine can bestarted. For more information on theAlcolock, see Alcolock* (p. 259).

When the engine is started the starter motorworks until the engine is started or until theoverheating protection triggers.
IMPORTANT
If the engine fails to start after 3 attempts - wait for 3 minutes before making a furtherattempt. Starting capacity increases if thebattery is allowed to recover.

Always remove the remote control key from the ignition switch when leaving thecar, and make sure that the key position is0 - in particular if there are children in the
car. For information on how this works -see Key positions (p. 70).
NOTE
The idling speed can be noticeably higher than normal for certain engine types duringcold starting. This is done in order that theemissions system can reach normal oper-ating temperature as quickly as possible,which minimises exhaust emissions andprotects the environment.
Keyless drive*Follow steps 2-3 for keyless (p. 159) starting of the engine.
NOTE
A prerequisite for the engine to start is that one of the car's remote control keys withthe Keyless drive function is in the passen-ger compartment or cargo area.
