After a short period, the vehicle is secured
by the electric parking brake, thus relieving
the service brake.
The electric parking brake secures the vehicle
automatically if the HOLD function is activated,
the vehicle is stationary and:
R the driver's seat belt is not fastened and the
driver's door is open
R the engine is switched off, unless it is auto-
matically switched off by the ECO start/stop
function
R a system fault occurs
R the power supply is insufficient
If the electric parking brake is not operational, a
horn will sound at regular intervals. The HOLD
function must then be deactivated.
If a malfunction occurs, the transmission may
also be shifted to position Pautomatically.
The Brake immediately Brake immediately message may also
appear in the multifunction display.
X Immediately depress the brake pedal firmly
until the warning message on the multifunc-
tion display goes out.
The HOLD function is deactivated. A horn will
sound at regular intervals if you turn off the
engine, take off your seat belt or open the driv-
er's door when the HOLD function is activated.
The horn alerts you to the fact that the HOLD
function is still activated. If you attempt to lock the vehicle, the tone becomes louder. The vehi-cle cannot be locked until you have deactivated
the HOLD function.
i Once you have switched off the engine, you
cannot restart it until you have deactivated
the HOLD function. RACE START
Important safety notes i
RACE START must not be used on normal
roads. RACE START must only be activated
and used on dedicated road circuits, outside
of public road use.
RACE START enables optimum acceleration
from a standing start. For this, a suitably high-
grip road surface is required, along with the
tyres and vehicle being in good condition. G
WARNING
If you use RACE START, individual tyres may
get into a spin and the vehicle could skid.
Depending on the selected ESP ®
mode, there
is an increased risk of skidding and having an accident. Make sure that no persons, animals
or obstacles are within range of the vehicle.
i Observe the safety notes on driving safety
systems (Y page 54).
Be sure to read the safety notes and informa-
tion on ESP ®
(Y page 57).
Activation conditions You can activate RACE START if:
R the doors are closed
R the engine is running and the engine and
transmission are at operating temperature.
This is the case when the oil temperature
gauge in the multifunction display is shown in white (Y page 167).
R ESP ®
is functioning correctly (Y page 58)
R the steering wheel is in the straight-ahead
position
R the vehicle is stationary and the brake pedal is
depressed sufficiently (left foot)
R the transmission is in position D
R drive program S,S+ orRACE is selected
(Y page 108)
Activating RACE START i
When manual mode (Y
page 115) is active,
the transmission automatically shifts up to
RACE START in the drive program. This func-
tion supports maximum acceleration with
RACE START. After going through an acceler- ating process once from a stationary position,
this function is automatically deactivated.
X Depress the brake pedal with your left foot
and keep it depressed.
X Pull and hold both steering wheel gearshift
paddles.
X The RACE START Confirm: Paddle UP RACE START Confirm: Paddle UP
Cancel: Paddle DOWN Cancel: Paddle DOWN message appears in
the multifunction display.

dles. Driving systems
