The pollutant emission of your vehicle is
directly related tothewa yyo u operate your
ve hicle.
Yo u can help toprotect the environment by
operating your vehicle in an environmentally-
re sponsible manner. Please obser vethefo l‐
lowing recommendations on ope rating condi‐
tions and pe rsonal driving style.
Operating conditions:
#Make sure that the tire pressure is cor‐
re ct.
#Do not car ryany unnecessary weight
(e.g. roof luggage rack s once you no
longe r need them).
#Ad here tothe service inter vals.
A regularly serviced vehicle will contri b‐
ute toenvironmen tal pr otection.
#Alw ays ha veservice workcar ried out at
a qu alified specialist workshop.
Pe rsonal driving style:
#Do not depress the accelera tor pedal
when starting the engine.
#Do not warm upthe engine while the
ve hicle is stationar y.
#Drive carefully and maintain a suitable
dist ance from theve hicle in front.
#Av oid frequent, sudden acceleration
and braking.
#Change gear in good time and use each
ge ar only uptoÔ of its maximum
engine speed.
#Switch off the engine in stationary traf‐
fi c.
#Ke ep an eye on theve hicle's fuel con‐
sum ption.
Environmental issues and recommendations:
It is recommended that youre -use or recycle
materials firs t ins tead of just disposing of them. The

WARNING Risk of accident due to
objects in the driver's foot we ll
Objects in the driver's foot we ll may impede
pedal tra vel or block a depressed pedal.
This jeopardizes the operating and road
saf etyof theve hicle.
#Stow all objects in theve hicle securely
so that they cannot getinto the driver's
fo ot we ll.
#Ensure floor mats and carpets cannot
slip and pr ovide suf ficient room forth e

#Do not lay multiple floor mats or car‐
pets on top of one ano ther.

Fu nctions of ABS (anti-lock braking sy stem)
ABS regulates the brake pressure in critical driv‐
ing situations:
RDuring braking, the wheels are pr evented
from blocking, e.g. due tomaximum full-s top
braking or insuf ficient traction of the tires.
RVe hicle steerability while braking is ensured.
If ABS inter venes when braking, youwill feel a
pulsing in the brake pedal. The pulsating brake
pedal can be an indication of hazardous road
conditions and can ser veas a reminder totake
ex tra care while driving.
Sy stem limitations
RABS is active from speeds of appr ox. 5 mph
(8 km/h).
RABS may be impaired or may not function if a
malfunction has occur red and theye l‐
low ! ABSwarning lamp lights up contin‐
uously in the instrument clus ter af terth e

Fu nction of BAS (Brake Assist Sy stem)
&
WARNING Risk of an accident caused by
a malfunction in BAS (Brake Assist Sys‐
te m)
If BA S is malfunctioning, the braking dis tance
in an emergency braking situation is
increased.

&WARNING Risk of an accident despite
Evasive Steering Assist
Evasive Steering Assist cannot always clearly
identify objects and complex traf fic situa‐
tions.
In addition, thesteering support of Evasive
St eering Assist is general lynot suff icientto
avo id a collision.
In such cases Evasive Steering Assist can:
Rgive an unnecessary warning or pr ovide
assis tance
Rnot give awa rning or not pr ovide assis‐
ta nce
#Alw ays pay careful attention tothe traf‐
fi c situation; do not rely on Ev asive
St eering Assist alone.
#Be ready tobrake and take evasive
action if necessar y.
#Preve ntthe assis tance byactively steer‐
ing in non-critical driving situations.
#Drive at an appropriate speed if pedes‐
trians are close tothe path of your vehi‐
cle.
Also obser vethe sy stem limitations of Evasive
St eering Assist.
Sy stem limitations
Ac tive Brake Assi stmay be impai red or may not
function in thefo llowing situations:
RIn sno w,rain, fog, heavy spr ay, if there is
gl are, in direct sunlight or in greatly varying
light conditions.
RIf th e sensors are dirty, fogged up, damaged
or co vered.
RIfth e sensors malfunction due to otherradar
source inter fere nce, forex ample strongradar
re flections in parking garage s.
RIf a loss of tire pressure or a defective tire
has been de tected and displ ayed.
The sy stem may not react cor rectly:
RIn complex traffic st ations where objects
cannot alw ays be clearly identified.
RTo pedestrians or vehicles if they mo ve
qu ickly into the sensor de tection range.
RTo pedestrians who are hidden by other
objects.
RIf th e typical outline of a pedestrian cannot
be distinguished from the bac kground.
RIf a pedestrian isnot recognized as such , e.g.
due tospecial clo thing or other objects.
ROn bends with a tight radius.
