Driving economically ECO mode
ECO mode is a function that
optimises fuel consumption. It affects engine power and torque,
acceleration, gear shift indication,
heating, air conditioning and electrical consumers.
Activation
Press ECO. Control indicator ECO
illuminates in the instrument cluster when activated.

136Driving and operatingTurbo 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.
Idle speed control
To increase the idle speed, press the switch. After a few seconds the
function will be activated.
The function will be deactivated
when:
● The clutch pedal is depressed.
● The accelerator pedal is depressed.
● Vehicle speed is above 0 km/h. ● Control indicator j, W or C
illuminate in the instrument
cluster.
To increase or decrease the fast idle
speed rate, consult a workshop.
Note
When the fast idle function is
activated, the stop-start system is
automatically deactivated.
Stop-start system 3 137.
Vehicle shutdown
Fuel cut-off system
If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the fuel
system is cut-off and must be reset
after refuelling. A corresponding
warning message may also appear in the Driver Information Centre 3 103.9 Danger
If you can smell fuel in the vehicle,
or a fuel leak is present, have thecause of this remedied
immediately by a workshop. Do
not reset the fuel cut-off system, to avoid the risk of fire.
Resetting with remote control
key / manual key
To reset the fuel cut-off system and
enable the vehicle to be driven:
1. Turn the ignition key to position 2
3 133.
2. Wait a few minutes to allow the fuel system to be reset.
3. Turn key to position 3 to start the
engine.
If the engine does not start, repeat the
procedure.

152Driving and operatingEnhanced Traction function
If necessary, in the event of soft
ground, mud or snow-covered road
surfaces, ESP® Plus
can be
deactivated to enhance traction:
Press Ø on the instrument panel.
Control indicator Ø illuminates in the
instrument cluster and a
corresponding message appears in
the Driver Information Centre 3 103.
When vehicle speed reaches
50 km/h, the system switches
automatically from Enhanced
Traction function to ESP® Plus
operation. Control indicator Ø
extinguishes in the instrument cluster.
ESP® Plus
is reactivated by pressing
Ø again. Control indicator Ø
extinguishes.
ESP® Plus
is also reactivated the next
time the ignition is switched on.
Engine Drag Torque Control
The engine drag torque control
system is an integral feature of
ESP® Plus
. When downshifting under
slippery road conditions, the engine speed and torque increases to help
prevent locking of the drive wheels
during sudden deceleration.
Fault
If the system detects a fault, control indicator b 3 100 illuminates together
with j 3 99 in the instrument cluster
and a corresponding message
appears in the Driver Information
Centre 3 103.
The Electronic stability program
(ESP® Plus
) is not operational. Have
the cause of the fault remedied by a
workshop.
Vehicle messages 3 104.

196Vehicle care
2.Loosen each of the wheel bolts by
half a turn using the wheel
wrench. Ensure the wrench is
securely located. The wrench
should turn anticlockwise to
loosen the bolts. Invert the wrench if necessary.3. Place lifting pad spigot of the jack
under the jacking hole located
nearest the wheel concerned.
Ensure the jack is positioned
correctly. The jack base must be
on the ground directly below the
jacking hole in a manner that
prevents it from slipping.
4. Install wrench onto the jack and raise the vehicle by turning the
wrench until the wheel is clear of
the ground.
5. Unscrew wheel bolts completely by turning anticlockwise and wipe
clean with a cloth.
Put wheel bolts somewhere
where the threads will not be
soiled.
6. Change the wheel. Spare wheel 3 197.
7. Screw in the wheel bolts.
8. Lower the vehicle and remove jack.
9. Tighten each of the wheel bolts in
a crosswise sequence using the
wheel wrench. Ensure the wrench
is securely located. The wrench
should turn clockwise to tighten the bolts. Invert the wrench if
necessary.
Tightening torque is 160 Nm.
10. Replace the wheel cover, ensuring that the valve hole in thewheel cover is aligned with the
tyre valve before installing.
Note
If applicable, fit anti-theft bolts
nearest the tyre valve (otherwise it
may not be possible to refit the wheel
cover).

Vehicle care19711. Stow the replaced wheel 3 197
and the vehicle tools 3 186.
12. Have the new wheel balanced on the vehicle.
Check the tyre pressure of the
installed tyre 3 223.
Check the wheel bolt torque.
Have the defective tyre renewed or repaired as soon as possible.
Spare wheel Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare wheel
3 192.
The spare wheel can be classified as
a temporary spare wheel depending
on the size compared to the other
mounted wheels and country
regulations. In this case a permissible maximum speed applies, even
though no label at the spare wheel
indicates this.Caution
The use of a spare wheel that is smaller than the other wheels or in combination with winter tyres
could affect driveability. Have the defective tyre replaced as soon as
possible.
It may be necessary to jack the
vehicle up to gain access to the spare
wheel on a fully loaded vehicle with a
flat rear tyre.
Wheel changing 3 195.
The spare wheel is mounted under
the rear underbody and may be
secured using a security bolt that can
only be removed using the wheel bolt sleeve supplied.
Vehicle tools 3 186.9 Warning
Due to the weight of the tyre
assembly, exercise caution when
releasing the spare wheel carrier.
Do not fully remove bolt 1.
Support the spare wheel with a
suitable object to prevent the
wheel falling suddenly when
loosening the carrier bolts - risk of injury!
To release the spare wheel carrier,fully remove bolt 2 then loosen bolt 1,
ensuring it is not fully removed. Then
move the spare wheel carrier up and
down and from side to side, until it
clears bolt 1, and lower the carrier
assembly.
When installing the wheel ensure that
the spare wheel carrier is correctly
positioned before tightening the bolts.
