132Driving and operatingTurn end of lever to the ON position;
control indicator m 3 91 illuminates in
the instrument cluster. Depending on
version, a corresponding message,
e.g. Cruise Control on , may also be
displayed in the Driver Information Centre 3 91.
Activation
Accelerate to the desired speed and
push lever upwards ( +); the current
speed is stored and maintained.
Accelerator pedal can be released.
Vehicle speed can be increased by depressing the accelerator pedal.
When the accelerator pedal is
released, the previously stored speed
is resumed.
Cruise control remains activated
while gearshifting.
Increase speed
With cruise control active, push lever
upwards ( +) or briefly push lever
upwards ( +) repeatedly: speed
increases continuously or in small
increments.Alternatively accelerate to the desired speed and store by pushing lever
upwards ( +).
Reduce speed With cruise control active, push lever
downwards ( -) or briefly push lever
downwards ( -) repeatedly; speed
decreases continuously or in small
increments.
Deactivation
Automatic deactivation: ● vehicle speed below approx. 30 km/h
● the brake pedal is depressed
● the clutch pedal is depressed
● the traction control system/Anti- Slip Regulator (ASR) or
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
is operating
● the antilock brake system (ABS) is operating
Resume stored speed
Press = at a speed above 30 km/h.
The stored speed will be obtained.Switching off
Turn end of lever to the OFF position;
control indicator m extinguishes. The
stored speed is deleted. Switching off
the ignition also deletes the stored
speed.
Parking assist9 Warning
It is the driver who bears full
responsibility for the parking
manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area while reversing and using the parking assist system.
The parking assist makes parking
easier by measuring the distance between the vehicle and obstacles,
and giving acoustic signals.
Driving and operating133
The system consists of four ultrasonicparking sensors in the rear bumper.
Activation
The parking assist is turned on
automatically when reverse gear is
engaged.
The intervals between the beeps
become shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to the obstacle. When the
distance is less than 30 cm, the beeping is a continuous tone which
stops immediately when the distance
is increased.
Deactivation
The parking assist automatically
switches off when reverse gear is
disengaged.
Fault
In the event of a fault in the system,
r 3 86 illuminates in the instrument
cluster.
Depending on version, a
corresponding warning message,
e.g. Parking help unavailable , may
also be displayed in the Driver
Information Centre 3 91.
The following conditions could affect
the system's performance:
● The ultrasonic sensors are not clean. Keep the bumper free ofmud, dirt, snow, ice and slush.
● The sensors are covered by frost
or ice.
● The rear doors / tailgate are open.
● An object was hanging out of the
rear doors / tailgate during the
last drive cycle. Once the object
has been removed, the parking
assist will return to normal
operation.
● An object or cover is attached to the rear of the vehicle.
● The bumper is damaged. Take the vehicle to a workshop to
repair the system.
● Other conditions, such as vibrations from a jackhammer,
are affecting system
performance.
In the event the system still does not
work properly, seek the assistance of
a workshop.
134Driving and operatingA warning chime is also sounded
briefly if a fault is present when
reverse gear is engaged 3 96.
Note
The volume of the warning chime
can also be adjusted via the Driver
Information Centre 3 91.
Important hints for using the
parking assist systems9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention has to be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper. If
such obstacles leave the detection area of the sensors during
approach of the vehicle, a
continuous warning tone will
sound.
Caution
Performance of the sensor can be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
systems can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles involved (e.g.
off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification in the upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross section, like objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist will not avoid a
collision with objects which are out
of the detection range of the
sensors.
Note
The parking assist system
automatically detects factory-fitted
towing equipment. It is deactivated
when the connector is plugged in.
The sensor may detect a non-
existent object (echo disturbance)
caused by external acoustic or
mechanical disturbances.

160Vehicle careWheels and tyres
Tyre condition, wheel condition Drive over edges slowly and at right
angles if possible. Driving over sharp
edges can cause tyre and wheel
damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb when parking.
Regularly check the wheels for
damage. Seek the assistance of a
workshop in the event of damage or
unusual wear.
Winter tyres
Winter tyres improve driving safety at temperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.
Tyres of size 185/65 R15,
195/65 R15 and 195/60 R16 C are
permitted as winter tyres.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.Tyre designations
E.g. 215/60 R 16 95 H215:tyre width, mm60:cross-section ratio (tyre height
to tyre width), %R:belt type: RadialRF:type: RunFlatC:cargo or commercial use16:wheel diameter, inches95:load index e.g. 95 is equivalent

Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of your vehicle.
The maximum speed is achievable at kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus125 kg payload. Optional equipment
could reduce the maximum speed of
the vehicle.
Performance 3 186.
Directional tyres
Directional tyres must be mounted so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol (e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel. This also applies to vehicles
with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Tyre pressure 3 191.
The tyre pressure information label
on the door frame (if fitted) indicates
the original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
Always inflate tyres to the pressures
shown on the label.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
166Vehicle care
If tyre pressure is more than
1.8 bar , set it to the correct value.
Repeat the procedure until there
is no more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
below 1.8 bar, the vehicle must
not be used. Seek the assistance
of a workshop.
15. Stow away tyre repair kit in load compartment.
Note
The driving characteristics of the
repaired tyre are severely affected,
therefore have this tyre replaced.
If unusual noise is heard or the
compressor becomes hot, turn
compressor off and allow to cool.
Note the expiry date of the kit. After
this date its sealing capability is no
longer guaranteed. Pay attention to
storage information on sealant
bottle.
Replace the used sealant bottle.
Dispose of the bottle as prescribed
by applicable laws.
The compressor and sealant can be used from approx. -20 °C.
Replacing the sealant canister
To replace the sealant canister: 1. Disconnect the compressor air hose.2. Turn the canister anticlockwise to lift it out.
3. Insert the new canister and turn it clockwise.
4. Connect the compressor air hose to the canister and fit the flexible
filler tube into its allocated space.
Wheel changing
Some vehicles are equipped with a
tyre repair kit instead of a spare wheel 3 164.
Make the following preparations and
observe the following information:
● Park the vehicle on a level, firm and non-skid surface. The front
wheels must be in the straight- ahead position.
● Apply the parking brake and engage first or reverse gear.
● Remove the spare wheel 3 168.
● Never change more than one wheel at once.
● Use the jack only to change wheels in case of puncture, not
for seasonal winter or summer
tyre change.
