Warning chimes
When starting the engine or whilst driving
Only one warning chime will sound at a time.
The warning chime regarding not
fastened seat belts has priority over
any other warning chime.
● If a seat belt is not fastened.
● If a door or the tailgate is not fully
closed when starting off.
● If a certain speed is exceeded with parking brake applied.
● If cruise control deactivates automatically.
● If a programmed speed or speed
limit is exceeded.

Lighting111It switches automatically back to low
beam when:
● The camera or a sensor in the windscreen detects the lights of
oncoming or preceding vehicles.
● The vehicle speed drops below 9 mph.
● It is foggy or snowy.
● Driving in urban areas.
If there are no restrictions detected, the system switches back to high
beam.
ActivationActivate this function pressing a
button on the turn and lane change
lever. The LED of the button
illuminates if the high beam assist is activated. The high beam is switched on automatically at a speed above
15 mph.
The green control indicator f
illuminates continuously when the
assist is activated, the blue one 7
illuminates when high beam is on.
Control indicator f 3 92.
Deactivation
Deactivate this function pressing a
button on the turn and lane change
lever.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam assist is activated and
low beam is on, the high beam assist will be deactivated. The system
changes to high beam.
If a headlight flash is activated when
the high beam assist is activated and
high beam is on, the high beam assist will be deactivated. The system
changes to low beam.
To reactivate the high beam assist,
flash the headlights again.Automatic headlight levelling
To prevent oncoming traffic from
being dazzled, headlight levelling is
automatically adjusted based on the
load in the vehicle.
Fault in Adaptive forward lighting- LED system
When the system detects a failure in
the Adaptive forward lighting-LED
headlight system, a warning is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Hazard warning flashers
Operated by pressing ¨.

116LightingBattery discharge protection
Vehicle battery state of charge
function
The function guarantees longestvehicle battery life via a generator
with controllable power output and
optimised power distribution.
To prevent discharge of the vehicle
battery when driving, the following
systems are reduced automatically in two stages and finally switched off:
● auxiliary heater
● heated rear window and mirrors
● heated seats
● fan
In the second stage, a message
which confirms the activation of the
vehicle battery discharge protection
will be displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
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.

130Driving and operatingDriving hints
Control of the vehicle
Never coast with engine not
running
Many systems will not function in this situation ( e.g. brake servo unit, power
steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others.
All systems function during an
Autostop.
Stop-start system 3 135.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to battery condition, the
power output of the generator must
be increased. This will be achieved by an idle boost which may be audible.
A message appears in the Driver
Information Centre.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in
the area of the pedals.Use only floor mats, which fit properly and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.
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.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.
Additionally, the cleaning process of
the diesel particle filter may take
place more often.
Diesel particle filter 3 138.
Autostop may be inhibited to allow
charging of the vehicle battery.
Ignition switch positions Turn key:

132Driving and operating9Warning
If the vehicle battery is discharged,
the vehicle must not be towed,
tow-started or jump-started as the
steering wheel lock cannot be
disengaged.
Operation on vehicles with
electronic key system in case of
failure
If either the electronic key fails or the
battery of the electronic key is weak,
the Driver Information Centre may
display No Remote Detected or
Replace Battery in Remote Key when
you try to start the vehicle.
Hold the electronic key with buttons outside at the marking on the steering column cover as shown in the
illustration.
Operate the clutch pedal (manual
transmission), the brake pedal and
press Start/Stop . Release the button
after starting procedure begins.
This option is intended for
emergencies only. Replace the
electronic key battery as soon as
possible 3 22.
For unlocking or locking the doors,
see fault in radio remote control unit
or electronic key system 3 23.
Power saving mode
This function manages the duration of
using certain systems to avoid
discharging of the vehicle battery.
After the engine has stopped, some
systems can still be used such as the audio and telematics system,
windscreen wipers, dipped beam
headlamps, courtesy lamps, etc. for a total maximum time of about forty
minutes.
Changing into power saving
mode
When a certain discharging status of
the vehicle battery is achieved, the
active functions are switched in
standby mode. A message appears in the Driver Information Centre
indicating Power saving mode .
A telephone call being made at this
time will be maintained for around 10 min with the Bluetooth handsfree
system of the Infotainment system.

138Driving and operatingload or run in neutral for
approx. 30 seconds before
switching off, in order to protect
the turbocharger.
Notice
In the event of an accident with airbag deployment, the engine is
switched off automatically if the
vehicle comes to a standstill within a certain time.
Engine exhaust9 Danger
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 start of saturation of the particle
filter is indicated by the temporary illumination of % or H ,
accompanied by a message in the
Driver Information Centre.
As soon as the traffic conditions
permit, regenerate the filter by driving at a vehicle speed of at least 40 mph
until the control indicator
extinguishes.
Notice
On a new vehicle, the first particle
filter regeneration operations may
be accompanied by a burning smell,
which is normal. Following
prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may,
in exceptional circumstances, notice
the emission of water vapour at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the
vehicle or the environment.
Cleaning process not possible
If % or H stays on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message,
this indicates that the particle filter
additive level is too low.
The reservoir must be topped-up
without delay. Seek the assistance of
a workshop.
