Depending on version, a warning
message may also be displayed in
the Driver Information Centre (DIC) 3 85.Caution
Engine lubrication may be
interrupted. This may result in
damage to the engine and/or
locking of the drive wheels.
1. Depress clutch.
2. Select neutral gear (or move selector lever to N).
3. Move out of the flow of traffic as quickly as possible without
impeding other vehicles.
4. Switch off ignition.9 Warning
When the engine is off,
considerably more force is needed
to brake and steer. During an
Autostop the brake servo unit will
still be operational.
Do not remove key until vehicle is
stationary, otherwise the steering wheel lock could engage
unexpectedly.
Check oil level before seeking the
assistance of a workshop 3 135.

Turn and lane-change signalsLever up:right turn signalLever down:left turn signal
If the lever is moved past the
resistance point, the turn signal is
switched on constantly. When the
steering wheel moves back, the turn
signal is automatically deactivated.
For five flashes, e.g. when changing lanes, press the lever until resistance is felt and then release.
Move the lever to the resistance point
and hold for longer indication.
Switch the indicator off manually by
moving the lever to its original
position.
Front fog lights
Operated by pressing >

Switching on front fog lights will
switch sidelights on automatically.
Press > again to turn the front fog
lights off.
Rear fog lights
Operated by pressing r.
The rear fog light can only be
switched on when both the ignition
and headlights or sidelights (with front
fog lights) are on.
Press r again to turn the rear fog light
off, or turn off the headlights and/or
the front fog lights.
Reversing lightsThe reversing lights come on when
the ignition is on and reverse gear is
selected.

Lighting99Removable rear courtesy light
Depending on model variant, the
removable rear courtesy light may
illuminate when the rear doors /
tailgate or sliding side doors are
opened and the central switch is in the middle position.
Switch the light on permanently by pressing the top part of the central
switch c.
Switch the light off permanently by pressing the bottom part of the central
switch ( AUTO OFF ).
To use as a handheld torch, press
button on top of the lamp assembly
(see illustration) to release it, swing
torch down carefully and remove.
Press switch on the end of torch to
turn the light on/off.

use.Lighting features
Exit lighting
If equipped, headlights come on for
approx. 30 seconds after the vehicle
is parked and the system is activated.
Activation 1. Switch off ignition.
2. Remove ignition key.
3. Pull turn signal lever towards steering wheel.
4. Operate turn signal lever again within 2 minutes.

108Driving and operatingCaution
Never leave the steering wheel on
full lock when the vehicle is
stationary, as this may damage
the power steering pump.
Starting and operating
New vehicle running-in Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system.
Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period fuel and
engine oil consumption may be
higher and the cleaning process of the diesel particle filter may take
place more often. Autostop may be
inhibited to allow for charging the
battery.

112Driving and operatingRestarting the engine
Manual transmission
The selector lever must be in neutral
to enable an automatic restart.
Depress the clutch pedal to restart the
engine.
Manual transmission automated
If the lever is in position N, select
another gear, otherwise release the
brake pedal or move the lever to +, –
or R to enable an automatic restart.
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop
during the restart may be noticeable.
Restarting the engine with the key When one of the following conditions
occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will need to be restarted
manually using the key.
● the driver's seat belt is unfastened and the driver's door
is opened
● three minutes have elapsed since the engine was switched offIn this event, control indicator ^
flashes in the DIC in conjunction with
a warning chime. Depending on
version, a corresponding message
may also appear in the DIC 3 85.
Fault
If control indicator Æ illuminates in the
instrument cluster, there is a fault in
the stop-start system 3 84.
Depending on version, 9 will
illuminate as an alternative if control
indicator Æ is not present. A warning
message may also be displayed in
the DIC 3 85.
Generic warning 9 3 76.
Seek the assistance of a workshop.
Parking9 Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply parking brake without pressing release
button. Apply as firmly as
possible on a downhill slope or
uphill slope. Depress brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine. Turn the ignition key to position 0 and
remove it. Turn the steering
wheel until the steering wheel
lock is felt to engage.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear before switching off
the ignition. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear
before switching off the ignition. Turn the front wheels towardsthe kerb.
Lock the vehicle 3 21 and activate the
anti-theft locking system 3 26 .

Driving and operating119Brakes
The brake system comprises two
independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle can
still be braked using the other brake
circuit. However, braking effect is
achieved only when the brake pedal
is depressed firmly. Considerably
more force is needed for this. The
braking distance is extended. Seek the assistance of a workshop before
continuing your journey.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit
disappears once the brake pedal has
been depressed once or twice.
Braking effect is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to bear this in mind when being towed.
Control indicator R 3 79.
Antilock brake system
Antilock brake system (ABS)
prevents the wheels from locking.ABS starts to regulate brake pressure as soon as a wheel shows a tendency to lock. The vehicle remains
steerable, even during hard braking.
ABS control is made apparent
through a pulse in the brake pedal
and the noise of the regulation
process.
For optimum braking, keep the brake
pedal fully depressed throughout the
braking process, despite the fact that
the pedal is pulsating. Do not reduce
the pressure on the pedal.
After starting off the system performs
a self-test which may be audible.
Control indicator u 3 79.
Fault9 Warning
If there is a fault in the ABS, the
wheels may be liable to lock due
to braking that is heavier than
normal. The advantages of ABS
are no longer available. During
hard braking, the vehicle can nolonger be steered and may
swerve.
Have the cause of the fault remedied
by a workshop.

Manual parking brake

Driving and operating121Ride control systems
Traction Control system The Anti-Slip Regulator (ASR) is a
component of the Electronic Stability
Control (ESC).
ASR improves driving stability when
necessary, regardless of the type of
road surface or tyre grip, by
preventing the drive wheels from
spinning.
As soon as the drive wheels starts to spin, engine output is reduced and
the wheel spinning the most is braked
individually. This considerably
improves the driving stability of the
vehicle on slippery road surfaces.
ASR is operational as soon as the
control indicator R extinguishes.
When ASR is active, control indicator
R flashes.9 Warning
Do not let this special safety
feature tempt you into taking risks
when driving.
Adapt speed to the road
conditions.
Deactivation
ASR can be switched off when
spinning of drive wheels is required:
press ASR OFF briefly.
LED in button illuminates and,
depending on version, a message may also appear in the Driver
Information Centre (DIC) 3 85.
ASR is reactivated by pressing
ASR OFF again.
ASR is also reactivated the next time
the ignition is switched on.
Fault
ASR will switch off automatically in
the event of a fault. Control indicator R will illuminate in the instrument
cluster. Depending on version, a
message may also appear in the DIC 3 85.
Have the cause of the fault remedied
by a workshop.
Control indicator R 3 80.
Electronic Stability Control Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
improves driving stability when
necessary, regardless of the type of
road surface or tyre grip. It also
prevents the drive wheels from
spinning.
As soon as the vehicle starts to
swerve (understeer/oversteer),
engine output is reduced and the wheels are braked individually. This
