138Driving and operatingDeactivation
Deactivate the stop-start system
manually by pressing Î.
Deactivation is indicated when the
LED in the button illuminates.
To reactivate, press Î again; LED
extinguishes in the button. The
system is reactivated automatically
the next time the ignition is switched
on.
Note
When the fast idle function is
activated, the stop-start system is
automatically deactivated and
cannot be reactivated by pressing
Î . LED in button illuminates to
indicate deactivation and a
corresponding message may
appear in the Driver Information Centre 3 103.
Idle speed control 3 137.
AutostopManual transmission
If the vehicle is at low speed or
standstill, activate an Autostop as
follows:
● depress the clutch pedal
● move the selector lever to neutral
● release the clutch pedal
Control indicator Ï may flash if the
clutch is not released sufficiently.Manual transmission automated
If the vehicle is at a standstill, activate an Autostop as follows:
● selector lever in position N (or
A/M )
● depress brake pedal firmly
● do not accelerate
The engine will be switched off while
the ignition stays on if the required conditions are fulfilled.
An Autostop is indicated when Ï
illuminates green in the instrument
cluster 3 101.
During an Autostop, the heating
performance, power steering and
brake performance will be
maintained. Brake assist, however, is
not available 3 157.
Note
If you exit the vehicle while the
engine is in an Autostop, a warning
chime will sound as a reminder that
the engine is on standby and has not been switched off.

140Driving and operatingBus
The engine is restarted automatically
when operating the power sliding
door switch on the instrument panel
during an Autostop.
Sliding door 3 28.
Restart of the engine by the stop-
start system
If one of the following conditionsoccurs during an Autostop, the
engine may be restarted
automatically by the stop-start
system. Control indicator Ï will flash
green in the instrument cluster during
an automatic engine restart.
● the vehicle battery is discharged
● the ambient temperature is too low
● the defrosting function is activated
● the brake vacuum is not sufficient
● the brake pedal is operated repeatedly
● the vehicle starts to moveAn automatic engine restart may not
be possible if a door or the bonnet is
open.
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop during restart might be noticeable.
If the Infotainment system is active,
audio sound may briefly be reduced
or interrupted during the restart.
Fault
If control indicator Ï illuminates
yellow, or the LED illuminates in
deactivation button Î without first
being pressed to deactivate the
system, there is a fault in the stop-
start system 3 101. A corresponding
message also appears in the Driver
Information Centre 3 103.
Seek the assistance of a workshop.
Warning chimes 3 104.Parking9 Warning
● Do not park the vehicle on an
easily ignitable surface. The
high temperature of the
exhaust system could ignite the
surface.
● Always apply parking brake without pressing release
button. Apply as firmly as
possible on a downhill slope or
uphill slope. Depress brake
pedal at the same time to
reduce operating force.
● Switch off the engine.
● If the vehicle is on a level surface or uphill slope, engage
first gear. On an uphill slope,
turn the front wheels away from
the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear.
Turn the front wheels towards the kerb.

144Driving and operatingMalfunction indicator light 3 98.
AdBlue
General information
The selective catalytic reduction
(BlueInjection) is a method to
substantially reduce the nitrogen
oxides in the exhaust emission. This
is achieved by injecting a Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust
system.
The designation of this fluid is
AdBlue ®
. It is a non-toxic, non-
flammable, colourless and odourless
fluid which consists of 32% urea and
68% water.9 Warning
Avoid contact of your eyes or skin
with AdBlue.
In case of eye or skin contact,
rinse off with water.
Caution
Avoid contact of the paintwork with AdBlue.
In case of contact, rinse off with water.
AdBlue freezes at a temperature of
approx. -11 °C. As the vehicle is
equipped with an AdBlue pre-heater,
the emissions reduction at low
temperatures is ensured. The AdBlue
pre-heater works automatically.
AdBlue gauge
In versions without AdBlue level
warnings in the Driver Information
Centre, an AdBlue gauge is present,
which shows the current AdBlue fluid
level remaining in the tank.
AdBlue gauge 3 92.
Level warnings
The AdBlue consumption is approx.
3.5 litres per 1000 km and depends
on the driving behaviour.
Version with level warnings in the
Driver Information Centre
If the AdBlue level falls below a
certain value, a level warning will be
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre 3 103.

Driving and operating145
Additionally, control indicator Õ
illuminates continuously together with a warning chime.
Refill the AdBlue tank as soon as
possible. Refer to "Refilling AdBlue"
below.
If AdBlue is not refilled within a certain
distance, further level warnings are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre depending on the current
AdBlue level.
Engine restarts prevented
Subsequent requests to refill AdBlue
and finally the announcement that an engine restart will be prevented are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.Note
These restrictions are a legal
requirement.
Before the prevention of an engine
restart, a warning message with
0 km is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre, indicating that after switching off the ignition an
engine restart will be prohibited.
After the prevention of an engine
start, a warning message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre
reminding the driver that AdBlue level
is insufficient.
To allow the engine to be restarted,
the tank should be refilled completely
or with a volume of at least ten litres
of AdBlue, depending on AdBlue
consumption.Warning stages: level warnings,
engine restarts prevented 1. Y illuminates after the ignition is

Requests to have the exhaust system checked and finally the
announcement that an engine restart
will be prevented are displayed in the
Driver Information Centre.
Note
These restrictions are a legal
requirement.
At an AdBlue range of 1100 km, a
