Emergency shut off during driving If the engine needs to be switched offduring driving in case of emergency,
press Start/Stop for five seconds.9Danger
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
Starting 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 vehicle battery.
With temperatures below -30 °C the
automatic transmission requires a
warming phase of approx.
five minutes. The selector lever must
be in position P.

140Driving and operatingHeating functionalitiesNote
Individual heating functionalities,
such as heated seats or heated
steering wheel, may be temporarily
unavailable in the event of electrical
loading constraints. Functions will
be resumed after some minutes.
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.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.
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.
DeactivationDeactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing Ò. The
deactivation is indicated when the
LED in the button illuminates.
AutostopVehicles with manual transmission
An Autostop can be activated at a
standstill.
Activate an Autostop as follows: ● Depress the clutch pedal.
● Set the selector lever to neutral.
● Release the clutch pedal.
The engine will be switched off while the ignition stays on.Vehicles with automatic transmissionIf the vehicle is at a standstill with
depressed brake pedal, Autostop is
activated automatically.
The engine will be switched off while the ignition stays on.
The stop-start system will be disabled
on inclines of 12% or more.

Driving and operating153The electric parking brake can always
be activated, even if the ignition is off.
Do not operate electric parking brake
system too often without engine
running as this will discharge the
vehicle battery.
Releasing
Switch on ignition. Keep foot brake
pedal depressed and then push
switch m.
Drive away function
Vehicles with manual transmission:
Depressing the clutch pedal and then slightly releasing the clutch pedal and
slightly depressing the accelerator
pedal releases the electric parking
brake automatically. This is only
possible if the automatic operation of the electric parking brake is activated. It is not possible when switch m is
pulled at the same time.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: Engaging D and then depressing the
accelerator pedal releases the
electric parking brake automatically.
This is only possible if the automaticoperation of the electric parking brake
is activated. It is not possible when
switch m is pulled at the same time.
Braking when vehicle is moving When the vehicle is moving and the
switch m is kept pulled, the electric
parking brake system will decelerate
the vehicle. As soon as the switch
m is released, braking will be
stopped.
The antilock brake system and the
Electronic Stability Control stabilise
the vehicle while the switch m is kept
pulled. If an error of the electric
parking brake occurs, a warning
message is displayed in the driver
information centre. If the antilock
brake system and the Electronic
Stability Control fail, one or both
indicators i and J illuminate in the
instrument cluster. In this case,
stability can only be provided by
repeatedly pulling and pushing the
switch m until the vehicle is
immobilised.Automatic operation
Automatic operation includes
automatic application and automatic
release of the electric parking brake.
The electric parking brake can also be
applied or released manually by using the switch m.
Automatic application: ● The electric parking brake is automatically applied when the
vehicle is stationary and the
ignition is switched off.
● j illuminates in the instrument
cluster and a display message
pops up to confirm the
application.
Automatic release: ● Parking brake releases automatically after moving off.
● j extinguishes in the instrument
cluster and a display message
pops up to confirm the release.
If the vehicle is equipped with an
automatic transmission and the brake
is not released automatically, make
sure the front doors are correctly
closed.

Driving and operating163Switching off the system
Press ß, the speed limiter mode is
deselected and the speed limit
indication extinguishes in the Driver
Information Centre.
Pressing m to activate cruise control
deactivates speed limiter.
The preset speed remains in the
memory when the ignition is switched
off.
Fault
In the event of a speed limiter fault,
the speed is cleared resulting in
flashing of the dashes.
The speed limiter may not operate correctly if traffic signs do not comply with the Vienna Convention on Road
Signs and Signals.
Adaptive cruise control
The adaptive cruise control is an
enhancement to the conventional
cruise control with the additional
feature of maintaining a certain
following distance to the vehicle
ahead. It uses radar and camerasensors to detect the vehicles ahead.
If no vehicle is detected in the driving path, the adaptive cruise control will
behave like a conventional cruise
control.
The adaptive cruise control
automatically decelerates the vehicle
when approaching a slower moving
vehicle. It then adjusts the vehicle
speed to follow the vehicle ahead at
the selected following distance. The
vehicle speed increases or decreases
to follow the vehicle ahead, but will
not exceed the set speed. It may
apply limited braking with activated
brake lights.
If the vehicle ahead accelerates or changes lane, the adaptive cruise
control progressively accelerates the
vehicle to return to the stored set
speed. If the driver operates a the turn lights to overtake a slower vehicle, the
adaptive cruise control allows the
vehicle to temporarily approach the
vehicle ahead to help passing it.
However, the set speed will never be
exceeded.The adaptive cruise control can store set speeds over 30 km/h for manual
transmission. If the vehicle ahead is
moving too slowly and the selected
following distance cannot be
maintained anymore, a warning
chime is given and a message is
displayed in the Driver Information Centre. The message prompts thedriver to take back control of the
vehicle. On vehicles with automatic
transmission, the system can brake
the vehicle until a full stop.9 Warning
The complete driver attention is
always required while driving with adaptive cruise control. The driver stays fully in control of the vehicle
because the brake pedal, the
accelerator pedal and the button
Ñ have priority over any adaptive
cruise control operation.

168Driving and operating● Do not use the adaptive cruisecontrol when towing a trailer.
● Do not use the adaptive cruise control on roads with an incline of
more than 10%.
As the radar's field of detection is
quite narrow, it is possible that the
system may not detect:
● vehicles of reduced width, e.g. motorcycles, scooters
● vehicles not running in the middle
of the lane
● vehicles entering a corner
● vehicles suddenly pulling out
Bends
The adaptive cruise control calculates
a predicted path based on the
centrifugal force. This predicted path
considers the current bend
characteristic, but cannot consider a
future bend change. The system may lose the current vehicle ahead or
consider a vehicle which is not in the
actual lane. This can happen when
entering or exiting a bend or if the
bend gets stronger or weaker. If it no
longer detects any vehicle ahead,
then control indicator A will
extinguish.
If the centrifugal force is too high in a bend, the system slows down the vehicle slightly. This braking level is
not designed to avoid spinning-off the
bend. The driver is responsible for
reducing the selected speed before
entering a bend and in general to
adapt the speed to the road type and
to existing speed limits.
Motorways
On motorways, adapt the set speed
to the situation and the weather.
Always consider that adaptive cruise
control has a limited visibility range, a
limited braking level and a certain
reaction time to verify if a vehicle is on
the driving path or not. Adaptive
cruise control may not be able to
brake the vehicle in time to avoid a
collision with a much slower vehicle or after a lane change. This is
particularly true while driving fast or if the visibility is reduced due to weather
conditions.
While entering or exiting a motorway,
adaptive cruise control may lose the
vehicle ahead and accelerate up to
the set speed. For this reason,
decrease the set speed before the
exit or before the entry.
Vehicle path changes
If another vehicle enters your driving
path, adaptive cruise control will first
consider the vehicle when it is
completely in your path. Be ready to

Driving and operating169take action and depress the brake
pedal, if you need to brake more
quickly.
Hill considerations9 Warning
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on steep hill roads.
System performance on hills depends
on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions and the road gradient. It
may not detect a vehicle in your path
while driving on hills. On steep hills,
you may have to use the accelerator
pedal to maintain your vehicle speed.
When going downhill you may have to brake to maintain or reduce your
speed.
Note that applying the brake
deactivates the system.
Radar unit
The radar unit is located in the middle of the front bumper.
9 Warning
The radar unit was aligned
carefully during manufacture.
Therefore, in the event of a front-
end impact, do not use the system. The front bumper may appear to
be intact, however the sensor
behind may be affected and react
incorrectly. After an accident,
consult a workshop to verify and
adjust the radar unit position.
Fault
In the event of a fault with the adaptive
cruise control, you are alerted by the
illumination of a warning light and the display of a message in the
instrument panel, accompanied by an
audible signal.
The adaptive cruise control may not
operate correctly if traffic signs do not comply with the Vienna Convention
on Road Signs and Signals.
Have the system checked by a dealer
or a qualified workshop.
As a safety measure, do not use the
system if the brake lights are faulty. Do not use the system if the front
bumper is damaged.
Forward collision alertThe forward collision alert may help to
avoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes.
The forward collision alert uses the
front camera in the windscreen and a radar unit located behind the front
bumper of the vehicle to detect a
vehicle directly ahead, in your path.

170Driving and operatingIf a vehicle directly ahead is
approached too quickly, a warning
chime and alert in the Driver
Information Centre is provided.9 Warning
Forward collision alert is just a
warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When
approaching a vehicle ahead too
rapidly, it may not provide you
enough time to avoid a collision.
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic, weather and visibility conditions.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes.
Activation
Forward collision alert detects
vehicles and operates automatically
at all speeds between 5 km/h and 140 km/h.
Alerting the driver
The driver is warned by following
alerts:
● Symbol , illuminates and a
warning message is displayed in
the Driver Information Center,
when the distance to the vehicle
ahead gets to small.
● Symbol , illuminates, a warning
message is displayed in the
Driver Information Center and a
warning chime sounds, when a
collision is imminent and
immediate driver's action is
required.9 Warning
