Route guidance
Introduction to the subject
A route is created by starting route guidance to a destination. Additional inter-
mediate destinations can be added to the route.
The route guidance takes place as follows
▶ Through graphical driving instructions on the Infotainment screen and in the
display of the instrument cluster.
▶ With nav. announcements.
Infotainment tries to allow for continued guidance even if the navigation data
is incomplete or there is no data at all for the given area.
The route is recalculated each time if you ignore driving recommendations or change the route.
CAUTION
The nav. announcements provided may vary from the actual situations, e.g.
due to out-of-date navigation data.

Problems with the engine start - vehicles with starter button
204
Depending on equipment fitted, it is possible to switch the ignition on/off and
start/stop the engine with the key in the ignition or using the starter button .
WARNING■
Never switch off the engine before the vehicle is stationary – risk of acci-
dent!■
The ignition must always be switched during the journey when the en-
gine is idling. Otherwise, the steering may lock - danger of an accident!
■
Do not withdraw the ignition key from the ignition lock until the vehicle
has come to a stop » page 208, Parking . Otherwise, the steering may lock -
danger of an accident!
■
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running - there is a
risk of theft, accident etc.!
■
Never run the engine in an enclosed space (e.g. in garages) - there is the
danger of poisoning and death!
CAUTION
■ Only start the engine when the engine and the vehicle are stationary - there
is a danger of starter and engine damage!■
Do not push-start the engine – there is a risk of damaging the engine and
the catalytic converter! The battery from another vehicle can be used as a
push-start aid.
■
On vehicles with the starter button, pay attention to where the key is loca-
ted. The system can recognize the valid key, even if it has been accidentally
left on the vehicle roof - there is danger of loss or damage to the key!
NoteDo not warm up the engine while the vehicle is stationary. If possible, start
your journey as soon as the engine has started. The engine will reach its oper-
ating temperature faster.
Electronic immobiliser and steering lock
Read and observe
and on page 202 first.
The electronic immobiliser (hereinafter referred to as immobiliser) makes it
more difficult for someone to attempt to steal or use your vehicle without au-
thorisation.
Immobilizer
The immobilizer enables the engine start exclusively using the original vehicle
keys.
Malfunction of the immobilizer
If the immobiliser components in the key fail, it is not possible to start the en-
gine. A message appears in the display of the instrument cluster to explain
that the immobiliser is active.
To start, use the other vehicle key or seek help from a specialist garage.
Steering lock - lock
›
On vehicles with ignition lock, remove the key and turn the steering wheel
until the steering lock engages.
›
On vehicles with a starter button, switch off the ignition and open the driv-
er's door. If the driver's door is opened and the ignition is switched off after-
wards, the steering is only locked automatically after the vehicle has been
locked.
Steering lock - unlock
›
On vehicles with ignition lock, insert the key into the ignition and turn on the
ignition. If this is not possible, move the steering wheel slightly back and
forth and thereby unlock the steering lock.
›
On vehicles with starter button, get into the car and close the driver's door.
Under certain circumstances, the steering lock can be unlocked only when
the ignition is switched on or the engine is started.
WARNINGNever let the vehicle roll with locked steering lock - there is a risk of acci-
dent!202Driving
