In brief19Stop-start system
If the vehicle is at low speed or in
standstill and certain conditions are
fulfilled, activate an Autostop as
follows:
● Depress the clutch pedal.
● Move the selector lever to N.
● Release the clutch pedal.
An Autostop is indicated when control indicator Ï illuminates green in the
instrument cluster.
To restart the engine, depress the
clutch pedal again.
Stop-start system 3 132.
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.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
● Close the windows.
● Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch. Turn the
steering wheel until the
steering wheel lock is felt to
engage.
● Lock the vehicle by pressing e on
the remote control 3 23.
● Activate the anti-theft alarm system 3 33.
● The engine cooling fans may run
after the engine has been
switched off 3 171.
Caution
After running at high engine
speeds or with high engine loads,
operate the engine briefly at a low load or run in neutral for approx.30 seconds before switching off, in
order to protect the turbocharger.
Keys, locks 3 20, Laying the vehicle
up for a long period of time 3 170.
34Keys, doors and windowsIf the hazard warning lights do not
flash upon activation, a door or the
bonnet is not fully closed.
Note
Changes to the vehicle interior, e.g.
the use of seat covers, and open
windows, could impair the function
of passenger compartment
monitoring.
Deactivation
Unlocking the vehicle or switching on
the ignition deactivates the anti-theft
alarm system. Hazard warning lights
flash once to confirm deactivation.
Note
If the alarm has been triggered,
unlocking the vehicle with the key
will not stop the alarm siren. To stop the siren, switch on the ignition. The
hazard warning lights will not flash
upon deactivation if the alarm has
been triggered.
Activation without monitoring of
passenger compartment
Switch off monitoring of the
passenger compartment when
people or animals are being left in thevehicle, or if the auxiliary heater
3 119 is set for a timed or remote
controlled start.
Depending on vehicle configuration:
● press and hold e, or
● switch ignition on and off twice quickly, then close doors and
activate the anti-theft alarm
system
An audible signal will sound as
confirmation.
The status will remain until the doors
are unlocked.
Alarm
When triggered, the alarm sounds via a separate battery-backed power
sounder, and the hazard warning
lights flash simultaneously. The
number and duration of alarm signals
are stipulated by legislation.
If the vehicle battery is disconnected
or its power supply is interrupted, the
alarm siren will be triggered. First
deactivate the anti-theft alarm system if the vehicle battery must be
disconnected.
To silence the alarm siren (if
triggered) and therefore deactivate
the anti-theft alarm system, reconnect vehicle battery and unlock vehicle
with remote control button c (or
switch on the ignition).
Immobiliser
The system is part of the ignition
switch and checks whether the
vehicle is allowed to be started with
the key being used.
Instruments and controls87AdBlue gauge
In versions without AdBlue level
warnings in the Driver Information
Centre, an AdBlue gauge is present,
which shows the current AdBlue fluid
level remaining in the tank.
Control indicator Y 3 95 illuminates
if the level in the tank is low. Refill AdBlue as soon as possible to avoid
prevention of engine starts.

Caution
If engine coolant temperature is
too high, stop vehicle, switch off
engine. Danger to engine. Check
coolant level.
For physical reasons, the coolant temperature gauge shows the coolant temperature only if the coolant level is adequate.
Engine oil level monitor
The engine oil level monitor is correct
only if the vehicle is parked on a level
surface with a cold engine.
If the engine oil level is correct when
the ignition is switched on OIL LEVEL
CORRECT appears briefly in the
Driver Information Centre.
If the engine oil is above the minimum level, press the trip computer button
on the end of the wiper lever within
30 seconds of switching on the
ignition. The message OIL LEVEL is
displayed in combination with the
squares that correspond to the oil

132Driving and operatingStop-start systemThe stop-start system helps to save
fuel and to reduce the exhaust
emission. 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 Î.
Deactivation is indicated when the
LED in the button illuminates.
Note
When the fast idle function is
activated, the stop-start system is
automatically deactivated and
cannot be reactivated by pressing
Î . LED in button illuminates to
indicate deactivation and a
corresponding message may
appear in the Driver Information
Centre 3 98.
Idle speed control 3 131.
Autostop
If the vehicle is at low speed or
standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
● depress the clutch pedal
● shift the selector lever to neutral (manual transmission) or N
(manual transmission
automated)
● release the clutch pedal
The engine will be switched off while
the ignition stays on if the required conditions are met.
134Driving and operatingRestart of the engine by the stop-
start system
The selector lever must be in neutral(manual transmission) or N (manual
transmission automated) 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. Control
indicator Ï will flash green in the
instrument cluster during an
automatic engine restart.
● 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 vehicle battery is discharged
● the brake vacuum is not sufficient
● the vehicle starts to move
● the defrosting function is activated● the climate control systemrequests an engine start
● the predetermined timing has been exceeded
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.
If the Infotainment system is active,
audio sound may briefly be reduced
or interrupted during the restart.
Warning chimes 3 99.
Fault
If control indicator Ï illuminates
yellow, there is a fault in the stop-start system 3 96. A corresponding
message also appears in the Driver
Information Centre 3 98. 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.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.
