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.
Retained power off
The following electronic systems can
work until the driver's door is opened
or for ten minutes after the ignition is
switched off:
● power windows
● power outlets
Starting the engine
Turn key to position 1 to release the
steering wheel lock.
Manual transmission: operate clutch
and brake pedal.
Automatic transmission: operate
brake pedal and move selector lever
to P or N.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal. Diesel engines: turn the key to
position 2 for preheating and wait until
control indicator ! extinguishes.
Driving and operating153Turn key briefly to position 3 and
release: an automatic procedure
operates the starter with a short delay
until the engine is running, see
Automatic Starter Control.
Manual transmission: during an
Autostop, the engine can be started
by depressing the clutch pedal
3 154.
Automatic transmission: during an
Autostop, the engine can be started
by releasing the brake pedal 3 154.

0 .9 Danger
Switching off the engine during
driving may cause loss of power
support for brake and steering
systems. Assistance systems and
airbag systems are disabled.
Lighting and brake lights will
extinguish. Therefore power down
the engine and ignition while
driving only when required in case of emergency.
Starting the vehicle at low
temperatures
The start of the engine without
additional heaters is possible down to -25 °С for diesel engines and -30 °C
for petrol engines. Required is an engine oil with the correct viscosity,
the correct fuel, performed services
and a sufficiently charged battery.
With temperatures below -30 °C the
automatic transmission need a
warming phase of approx. five
minutes. The selector lever must be
in position P.
Automatic Starter Control This function controls the engine
starting procedure. The driver does
not have to hold the key in position 3.
Once applied, the system will go on
starting automatically until the engine
is running. Because of the checking
procedure, the engine starts running
after a short delay.Possible reasons for a non-starting
engine:
● Clutch pedal not operated (manual transmission).
● Brake pedal not operated or selector lever not in P or N
(automatic transmission).
● Timeout occurred.
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 pedal is released.
Depending on driving conditions, the
overrun cut-off may be deactivated.
