ment. Changes in terms of supply scope are possible at any time with regard to

Deactivating an airbag should be considered in cases such as the ones below.▶ If a child seat is to be used on the front passenger seat, where the child is
transported with its back to the direction of travel » page 19, Transporting
children safely .
▶ If it is not possible to maintain a distance of at least 25 cm between the mid-
dle of the steering wheel and chest, despite the driver's seat being correctly
adjusted.
▶ If special attachments are required in the area of the steering wheel because
of a physical disability.
▶ If different seats have been fitted (e.g. orthopaedic seats without side air-
bags).

bag will not be deployed in the event of an accident! Have the airbag sys-
tem checked by a specialist garage immediately.

You should shift into the next highest gear before the red scale of the revolu-
tion counter is reached, or select mode D on the automatic gearbox.
The gear recommendation is important to note in order to maintain the opti-
mum engine speed » page 30.
Avoid high engine speeds during the running-in period and before the engine
has warmed up to the operating temperature.
CAUTION
The pointer of the tachometer must reach the red area for only a short time -
there is a risk of engine damage!

Before the next service interval has been reached, the message appears in
the instrument cluster display for some seconds and the remaining kilometres
are shown after switching on the ignition.
If the time of the service has been reached, an acoustic signal will sound and the message
appears for a few seconds after switching on the ignition.
The information regarding the service intervals can be found in the service
schedule.

■Do not switch on the ignition if the front wiper arms are retracted. The wiper
arms could damage the paint of the bonnet.■
If there is an obstacle on the windscreen, the wiper will try to push away the
obstacle. If the obstacle continues to block the wiper, the wiper stops in order
to avoid damaging the wiper. Remove the obstacle and switch the wiper on
again.

the spraying duration).
Spraying and wiping the rear window (sprung position)
The wash system operates immediately, the windscreen wiper wipes some-
what later.
Letting go of the operating lever will cause the windscreen wash system to

The rear window is wiped once automatically if the windscreen wipers are on
when reverse gear is selected.
Rear mirror
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror dimming
53
Exterior mirrors
53WARNING■ Make sure that the mirrors are not covered.■Convex (curved outward) or aspheric exterior mirrors increase the field of
vision. They do, however, make objects appear smaller in the mirror. These
mirrors are therefore only of limited use for estimating distances to the fol-
lowing vehicles.■
Whenever possible use the interior mirror for estimating the distances to
the following vehicles.

Functions of the device
▶ Navigation, TMC traffic information, lane assistance, and speed assistant.
▶ Operating the radio, media player and multimedia devices connected via
Bluetooth ®
.
▶ Displaying information from the MFD, rev counter and coolant temperature
» page 28 .
▶ Hands-free device for mobile phones linked to the device via Bluetooth ®
.
▶ Indicator for opened bonnet, doors and luggage compartment lid.
▶ Display from the visual parking system (OPS).
▶ Image viewer.
▶ The toll service Live services - traffic, radar to measure the speed on the
road, weather and news search in the Yelpsystem.
▶ Route planning with consideration of the CNG filling station network (multi-

from vehicles which have the right of way, such as police, ambulance and
fire brigade vehicles, can be heard at all time.■
An audio volume set too high may damage your hearing!
CAUTION
Improper adjustment of the tilt may damage the unit as well as the fixture.
Note
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is restricted
to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles
between the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your mo-
bile phone is e.g. in a jacket pocket, this can lead to difficulties when establish-
ing the Bluetooth ®
connection with the hands-free system or the data trans-
fer.74Using the system
