Radio remote control
Used to operate:
● central locking system
● anti-theft alarm system
The radio remote control has a range of approx. 20 metres. It can be
restricted by external influences. The
hazard warning flashers confirm
operation.
Handle with care, protect from
moisture and high temperatures and
avoid unnecessary operation.
Fault
If the central locking system cannot be operated with the radio remote
control, it may be due to the following:
● The range is exceeded.
● The battery voltage is too low.
● Frequent, repeated operation of the radio remote control while not
in range, which will require re-
synchronisation.
● Overload of the central locking system by operating at frequent
intervals, the power supply is
interrupted for a short time.
● Interference from higher-power radio waves from other sources.

Battery discharge protection Switching off electric lights
To prevent discharge of the vehicle
battery when the ignition is switched
off, some interior lights are switched
off automatically after some time.

Driving and operating107Use only floor mats, which fit properly
and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.
Driving downhill
Engage a gear when driving downhill
to ensure that sufficient brake
pressure is available.
Steering If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a
system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.
Control indicator c 3 72.Caution
Vehicle equipped with electric
power steering:
If the steering wheel is turned until it reaches the end of its travel and
is held against that position for an
extended period of time, power
steering assistance may be
reduced.
If the steering assistance is used
for an extended period of time,
power assistance may be
reduced.
Power steering assistance should
return back to normal when the
system has cooled down.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.
Autostop may be inhibited to allow for
charging of the vehicle battery.
Ignition switch positions
Turn key:

Driving and operating109Before restarting or to switch off the
engine, turn the key back to position
0 .
During an Autostop, the engine can
be started by depressing the clutch
pedal.
Starting the vehicle at low
temperatures
The start of the engine without
additional heaters is possible down to -30 °C.
Required is an engine oil with the
correct viscosity, the correct fuel,
performed services and a sufficiently
charged vehicle battery.
Automatic starter controlThis function controls the engine
starting procedure. The driver does
not need 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 (manual transmission
automated)
● 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 is released.
Depending on driving conditions, the
overrun cut-off may be deactivated.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.
On vehicles with manual
transmission, the engine is started
automatically as soon as the clutch is depressed.
On vehicles with manual transmission
automated, the engine is started
automatically as soon as the brake
pedal is released.
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.
