Steering wheel lock
Remove key from ignition switch and
turn steering wheel until it engages.
9 Danger
Never remove the key from
ignition switch during driving as
this will cause steering wheel lock.
Starting the engine
Manual transmission: operate clutch
and brake pedals.
Automatic transmission: operate
brake pedal and move selector lever
to P or N.
Do not operate accelerator pedal.
Diesel engines: turn the key to
position ON for preheating until
control indicator ! extinguishes
3 87.
Turn key briefly to position START
and release. Key returns
automatically to position ON.
Before restarting or to switch off the engine, turn key back to LOCK.
Start attempts should not last longer
than 15 seconds. If engine does not
start, wait 10 seconds before
repeating starting procedure.
The increased engine speed
automatically returns to normal idling
speed as the engine temperature
rises. Drive at a moderate speed,
especially in cold weather, until
normal engine operating
temperatures have been reached.
During an Autostop, the engine can
be started by depressing the clutch
pedal.
Stop-start system 3 126.

126Driving and operatingStarting the vehicle at low
temperatures
In extremely cold temperatures, i.e.
below -20 °С, it may be necessary to
crank the engine for up to
30 seconds for it to start.
Turn key to position START and hold
until engine starts. Start attempts
should not last longer than
30 seconds. If engine does not start, wait 10 seconds before repeatingstarting procedure.
Ensure the engine oil is of the correct viscosity, the correct fuel is used,
vehicle services are performed
regularly and the battery is sufficiently
charged.
Turbo engine warm-up Upon start-up, engine available
torque may be limited for a short time,
especially when the engine
temperature is cold. The limitation is
to allow the lubrication system to fully protect the engine.Overrun cut-off
The fuel supply is automatically cut-
off during overrun, i.e. when the
vehicle is driven with a gear engaged
but accelerator is released.
Stop-start system The stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emissions. When conditions allow, it
switches off the engine as soon as the
vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, e.g. at a traffic light or in a
traffic jam. It starts the engine
automatically as soon as the clutch is depressed. A vehicle battery sensor
ensures that an Autostop is only performed if the vehicle battery is
sufficiently charged for a restart.
Activation
The stop-start system is available as soon as the engine is started, the
vehicle starts-off and the conditions
as stated below in this section are
fulfilled.Deactivation
Deactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing s. The
deactivation is indicated when the
LED in the button extinguishes.
Fuel economy mode 3 122.
Autostop If the vehicle is at a low speed or at a
standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
● Depress the clutch pedal
● set the lever to neutral
● release the clutch pedal

128Driving and operatingIf the selector lever is shifted out of
neutral before depressing the clutch
first, control indicator - illuminates.
Control indicator - 3 90.
Restart of the engine by the stop- start system
The selector lever must be in neutral to enable an automatic restart.
If one of the following conditions occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will be restarted automatically
by the stop-start system.
● The stop-start system is manually deactivated
● the bonnet is opened
● the driver's seat belt is unfastened and the driver's door
is opened
● the engine temperature is too low
● the charging level of the vehicle battery is below a defined level
● the brake vacuum is not sufficient
● the vehicle is driven at least at walking speed
● the defrosting function is activated● the climate control systemrequests an engine start
● the air conditioning is manually switched on
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop
during restart might be noticeable.
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 the electrical parking brake.
Pull switch m.
The electric parking brake is
applied when control indicator
m illuminates 3 85.
For maximum force, e.g.
parking with a trailer or on
inclines, pull switch m twice.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear or move the selector
lever to P before removing the
ignition key. On an uphill slope, turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear or
move the selector lever to P
before removing the ignition
key. Turn the front wheels
towards the kerb.
● Close windows and sunroof.
● Turn the ignition key to position
LOCK , push key into ignition
switch and remove.
For vehicles with automatic
transmission, depress foot
brake and shift into P before
pushing key into ignition switch and removing.
Turn the steering wheel until
the steering wheel lock is felt to
engage.

Driving and operating133Note
These restrictions are a legal
requirement.
Seek the assistance of a workshop as
soon as possible.
Refilling AdBlueCaution
Only use AdBlue that complies
with European standards
DIN 70 070 and ISO 22241-1.
Do not use additives.
Do not dilute AdBlue.
Otherwise the selective catalytic
reduction system could be
damaged.
Note
If AdBlue must be refilled at very low temperatures, the refilling of AdBlue
may not be detected by the system.
In this case, park the vehicle in a
space with a higher ambient
temperature until AdBlue is
liquefied.
Note
If engine starting is prohibited due to low AdBlue level, we recommend
refilling the tank completely or with a volume of at least ten litres of AdBlue(depending on AdBlue
consumption).
Avoid minor top-ups (e.g. less than five litres), otherwise the system
may not detect a refill.
Note
When unscrewing the protective cap
from the filler neck, ammonia fumes
may emerge. Do not inhale as the
fumes have a pungent smell. The
fumes are not harmful by inhalation.
The vehicle must be parked on a level surface.
The filler neck for AdBlue is located at
the rear bumper on the left-hand side of the vehicle.9 Danger
Vehicles with stop-start system:
The engine must be switched off
and the ignition key removed, to
avoid risk of engine being
restarted automatically by the
system.
