▷After approximately eight minutes.▷When locking via the central locking sys‐
tem.▷Shortly before the battery is discharged so
that an engine start remains possible.
Radio readiness remains active when ignition
is switched off automatically, such as for
following reasons:
▷Opening or closing driver's door.▷Unfastening driver's seat belt.▷When low-beam headlights are automati‐
cally changed to side lights.
If engine is switched off and ignition is
switched on, radio ready state will be automati‐
cally activated when door is opened if light is
switched off or daytime driving lights are
switched on, when corresponding equipment
is fitted.
Engine start Notes DANGER
A blocked exhaust pipe or inadequate
ventilation can allow harmful exhaust fumes to
penetrate the vehicle. The exhaust gas con‐
tains carbon monoxide, which is colourless and
odourless, but highly toxic. In enclosed spaces,
the exhaust fumes can also build up outside
the vehicle. Danger of fatal injury. Keep the ex‐
haust pipe clear and ensure sufficient ventila‐
tion.◀
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can start moving
and rolling away. Danger of accidents. Before
leaving the vehicle, secure it to prevent rolling
away.
Observe the following to ensure that the vehi‐
cle is secured against rolling away:
▷Engage the parking brake.▷Turn the front wheels into the direction of
the kerb on upward or downward gradi‐
ents.▷Additionally secure the vehicle on upward
or downward gradients, e.g. using a
wedge.◀
ATTENTION
Repeated start attempts or starting sev‐
eral times in quick succession means that fuel
is not combusted, or insufficiently so. The cat‐
alytic converter can overheat. Danger of dam‐
age to property. Avoid starting more than once
in quick succession.◀

M double clutch
transmission with Drivelogic
General The M double clutch transmission with Drive‐
logic is an automated manual gearbox with two
clutches and partial gears, by which the gears
are changed without interrupting traction.
It is operated using the selector lever or two
paddles on the steering wheel.
Functions▷Drive mode or sequential mode.▷Various drive programs, Drivelogic.▷Shift Lights, see page 96▷Automatic downshift and protection
against shifting even in sequential mode.▷Launch Control.▷Low Speed Assistant.
Selector lever, selector lever position

quential mode.
Engaging selector lever position
Press the brake pedal and push or pull the se‐
lector lever in the appropriate direction.
As soon as the selector lever is released, it re‐
turns to the central position. The selector lever
engages into position R.
The engaged selector lever position is shown
in the instrument cluster and on the selector
lever.
After a selector lever position has been en‐
gaged, the vehicle can roll away when the
brake is released, for example on a downhill
slope. As a result, drive away immediately after
releasing the brake.

very low speeds. The vehicle drives at walking
pace.
