Driving economically ECO mode
ECO mode is a function that
optimises fuel consumption. It affects engine power and torque,
acceleration, gear shift indication,
heating, air conditioning and electrical consumers.
Activation
Press the ECO button. Control
indicator ECO illuminates in the
instrument cluster when activated.
During driving, it is possible to
temporarily disable ECO mode, e.g.
to increase engine performance, by
depressing the accelerator pedal
firmly. ECO flashes in the instrument
cluster.
ECO mode is reactivated when
pressure is reduced on the
accelerator pedal. ECO stops
flashing and illuminates continuously.
Deactivation
Press the ECO button again. Control
indicator ECO extinguishes in the
instrument cluster.

116Driving and operatingStarting the engine
Manual transmission: operate clutch.
Do not accelerate.
Diesel engines: turn the key to
position M for preheating until control
indicator ! extinguishes in the
instrument cluster 3 88.
Turn key to position D and release.
The increased engine speed
automatically returns to normal idling
speed as the engine temperature
rises.
Start attempts should not last longer
than 15 seconds. If engine does not
start, wait 15 seconds before
repeating starting procedure. If
necessary, depress accelerator
before repeating starting procedure.
Before restarting or to switch off the
engine, turn key back to St.
During an Autostop, the engine can be started by depressing the clutch
pedal. Stop-start system 3 117.
Turbo engine warm-up
Upon start-up, engine available
torque may be limited for a short time, especially when the engine
temperature is cold. The limitation is
to allow the lubrication system to fully protect the engine.Idle speed control
To increase the idle speed, press theswitch. After a few seconds the
function will be activated.
The function will be deactivated
when:
■ The clutch pedal is depressed
■ The accelerator pedal is depressed
■ Vehicle speed is above 0 km/h
■ Control indicator F, W or C

166Vehicle care
5. Unscrew wheel bolts completelyby turning anticlockwise and wipe
clean with a cloth.
Put wheel bolts somewhere
where the threads will not be
soiled.
6. Change the wheel. Spare wheel 3 166.
7. Screw in the wheel bolts.
8. Lower the vehicle and remove jack.
9. Tighten each of the wheel bolts in
a crosswise sequence using the
wheel wrench. Ensure the wrench
locates securely. The wrench
should turn clockwise to tighten
the bolts. Invert the wrench if
necessary.
Tightening torque is 160 Nm.
10. Replace the wheel cover, ensuring that the valve hole in thewheel cover is aligned with the
tyre valve before installing.Note
If applicable, fit anti-theft bolts
nearest the tyre valve (otherwise it
may not be possible to refit the wheel
cover).
11. Stow the replaced wheel 3 166
and the vehicle tools 3 156.
12. Have the new wheel balanced on the vehicle.
Check the tyre pressure of the
installed tyre 3 192.
Check the wheel bolt torque.
Have the defective tyre renewed or
repaired as soon as possible.
Spare wheel
Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare wheel 3 162.
If mounting a spare wheel which is
different from the other wheels, this
wheel might be classified as a
temporary spare wheel and the
corresponding speed limits apply,even though no label indicates this.
Seek the assistance of a workshop to
check the applicable speed limit.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that is smaller than the other wheels or in combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
It may be necessary to jack the
vehicle up to gain access to the spare
wheel on a fully loaded vehicle with a flat rear tyre.
Wheel changing 3 165.
