Trip odometer 1 or 2
Trip odometer displays the recorded
distance since a certain reset.
Trip odometer counts up to a distance of 2000 miles and then restarts at 0.
Reset trip odometer by pressing
SET/CLR on the turn signal lever for
a few seconds or by pressing the
reset knob near the speedometer

average values.
After refuelling, the range is updated
automatically after a brief delay.
When the fuel level in the tank is low, a message appears in the display.
When the tank must be refuelled
immediately, a warning message is
displayed.Additionally, the control indicator i

● Shift indication : Current gear is
indicated inside an arrow. The
digit above recommends

Instruments and controls97upshifting for fuel saving
reasons.
Eco index display : The current
fuel consumption is indicated on
a segment display. For
economical driving adapt your
driving style to keep the filled
segments within the Eco area.
The more segments are filled, the higher the fuel consumption.
Simultaneously the current
consumption value is indicated.
● Top Consumers : List of top
comfort consumers currently
switched on is displayed in
descending order. Fuel saving
potential is indicated. A switched-
off consumer disappears from
the list and the consumption
value will be updated.
During sporadic driving
conditions, the heated rear
window is activated automatically to increase engine load. In this
event, the heated rear window is
indicated as one of the top
consumers, without activation by
the driver.
● Economy Trend : Displays the
average consumption
development over a distance of
50 miles. Filled segments display
the consumption in 5 mile steps
and shows the effect of
topography or driving behaviour
on fuel consumption.
Graphic-Info-Display, Colour-Info-Display
Depending on the vehicle
configuration the vehicle has a
Graphic-Info-Display or a Colour-
Info-Display.
The Info-Display is located in the
instrument panel above the

Driving and operating135Starting 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
vehicle battery.

Retained power off
The following electronic systems can
work until the driver's door is opened
or for a maximum of 10 minutes after
the ignition is switched off:
● power windows
● power outlets
Starting the engine
Manual transmission: operate clutch.
Automatic transmission: operate
brake and move the selector lever to
P or N.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal. Diesel engine: turn the key to position2 for preheating until control
indicator ! extinguishes.
Turn the key briefly to position 3 and
release: an automatic procedure
operates the starter with a short delay
as long as the engine is running, see
'Automatic Starter Control'.

140Driving and operatingEngine exhaust9Danger
Engine exhaust gases contain
poisonous carbon monoxide,
which is colourless and odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust gases enter the interior
of the vehicle, open the windows.
Have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop.
Avoid driving with an open load
compartment, otherwise exhaust
gases could enter the vehicle.
Diesel particle filter
Automatic cleaning process
The diesel particle filter system filters
harmful soot particles out of the
exhaust gases. The system includes
a self-cleaning function that runs
automatically during driving without
any notification. The filter is cleaned
by periodically burning off the soot
particles at high temperature. This
process takes place automatically
under set driving conditions and may take up to 25 minutes. Typically it
needs between seven and twelve
minutes. Autostop is not available
and fuel consumption may be higher
during this period. The emission of
smells and smoke during this process is normal.
System requires cleaning
Under certain conditions, e.g. driving
short distances, the system cannot
clean itself automatically.
If cleaning of the filter is required and if previous driving conditions did not
enable automatic cleaning, it will beindicated by illumination of % and a
warning message in the Driver Information Centre.
% illuminates along with a warning
message when diesel particle filter is
full. Start cleaning process as soon as
possible.
% flashes along with a warning
message when diesel particle filter
has reached the maximum filling
level. Start cleaning process
immediately to avoid damage to the
engine.
Activate self-cleaning process
To activate cleaning process,
continue driving, keep engine speed
above 2000 rpm. Shift down if
necessary. Diesel particle filter
cleaning is then started.
Cleaning process is completed more
quickly at high engine speeds and
loads.
Control indicator % extinguishes as
soon as the self-cleaning operation is complete. Keep on driving until self-
cleaning operation is complete.

176Driving and operating
DeactivationThe system is deactivated by
pressing ), the LED in the button
extinguishes.
At speeds below 35 mph the system
is inoperable.
Fault
The lane departure warning system may not operate properly when:
● the windscreen is not clean
● there are adverse environmental conditions like heavy rain, snow,
direct sunlight or shadows
The system cannot operate when no
lane marking is detected.Fuel
Fuel for petrol engines Only use unleaded fuel that complies
with European standard EN 228 or
equivalent.
The engine is capable of running with
fuel that contains up to 10% ethanol
(e.g. named E10).
Use fuel with the recommended
octane rating. A lower octane rating
can reduce engine power and torque
and slightly increases fuel
consumption.Caution
Do not use fuel or fuel additives
that contain metallic compounds
such as manganese-based
additives. This may cause engine
damage.

180Driving and operatingIn case of an emergency, refill with a
canister. A funnel must be used to
open the cap of the filler neck.
The funnel is located in the load
compartment.
Place the funnel in a straight line to
the filler neck and press with slight
force to insert.
Use the funnel to fill the diesel fuel into the filler neck.
After topping-up, put the funnel into
the plastic bag and stow it in the
storage compartment.

Fuel filler cap
Only use genuine fuel filler caps. Diesel-engined vehicles have special fuel filler caps.
Fuel consumption - CO 2-
Emissions The fuel consumption (combined) is
within a range of 39 to 54 mpg.
The CO 2 emission (combined) is
within a range of 172 to 138 g/km.
For the values specific to your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of
Conformity provided with your vehicle or other national registration
documents.
General information The official fuel consumption and
specific CO 2 emission figures quoted
relate to the EU base model with
standard equipment.
Fuel consumption data and CO 2
emission data are determined
according to regulation
R (EC) No. 715/2007 (in the latestapplicable version), taking into
consideration the vehicle weight in
running order, as specified by the
regulation.
The figures are provided only for the purpose of comparison between different vehicle variants and mustnot be taken as a guarantee for the
actual fuel consumption of a
particular vehicle. Additional
equipment may result in slightly
higher results than the stated
consumption and CO 2 figures.
Furthermore, fuel consumption is dependent on personal driving style
as well as road and traffic conditions.
