y

ou need a replacement key, go to a Techni-
cal Service with your vehicle identification
number. WARNING
● An incorr ect

use of the keys can cause seri-
ous injuries.
● Never leave children or disabled persons in
the vehic
le. In case of emergency, they may
not be able to leave the vehicle or manage on
their own.
● An uncontrolled use of the key could start
the engine or activat
e any electric equipment
(e.g. electric windows), causing risk of acci-
dent. The doors can be locked using the re-
mote control key. This could become an ob-
stacle for assistance in an emergency situa-
tion.
● Never forget the keys inside the vehicle. An
unauthori
sed use of your vehicle could result
in injury, damage or theft. Therefore always
take the key with you when you leave the ve-
hicle.
● Never remove the key from the ignition if
the vehic
le is in motion. Otherwise, the steer-
ing could suddenly block and it would be im-
possible to steer the vehicle. CAUTION

rever
se or rear fog lights are lit. This may
damage the tail lights.
● Do not close the rear lid by pushing it down
with y
our hand on the rear window. The glass
could smash. Risk of injury!
● Ensure the rear lid is locked after closing it.
If not, it m
ay open unexpectedly while driv-
ing.
● Never allow children to play in or around

le. A locked vehicle can be subjected
to extremely high and low temperatures, de-
pending on the time of year, thus causing se-
rious injuries/illness. It could even have fatal
consequences. Close and lock both the rear
lid and all the other doors when you are not
using the vehicle. ●
Clo s

ing the rear lid without observing and
ensuring it is clear could cause serious injury
to you and to third parties. Make sure that no
one is in the path of the rear lid.
● Never drive with the rear lid open or half-

eave the vehicle.
● The electric windows will work until the ig-
nition has
been switched off and one of the
front doors has been opened.
● If necessary, use the safety switch to disa-
ble the r
ear electric windows. Make sure that
they have been disabled. Note
If the window is not able to close because it
is s

tiff or because of an obstruction, the win-
dow will automatically open again
››› page 142. If this happens, check why the
window could not be closed before attempt-
ing to close it again. Roll-back function
The roll-back function reduces the risk of in-
jur
y
when the el

ectric windows close. ●
If a windo
w is obstructed when closing au-
tomatically, the window stops at this point
and lowers immediately ››› .
● Next, check why the window does not close
bef or
e att

empting it again.
● If you try within the following 10 seconds
and the window c
loses again with difficulty
or there is an obstruction, the automatic clos-
ing will stop working for 10 seconds.
● If the window is still obstructed, the win-
dow wi
ll stop at this point.

WARNING
You should switch on the ESC Sport mode on-
ly if the tr

affic conditions and your driving
ability allow you to do so safely: risk of skid-
ding!
● With ESC in Sport mode, the stabilising
function w
ill be limited to allow for a sportier
drive. The driving wheels could spin and the
vehicle could skid. Note
If the ASR is disconnected or the ESC’s Sport
mode is sel

ected, cruise control* will be
switched off. Electronic differential lock (EDS)*
The EDL operates along with the ABS in vehi-
c
l
e

s equipped with Electronic Stability Con-
trol (ESC)*.
EDL helps the vehicle to start moving, accel-
erate and climb a gradient in slippery condi-
tions where this may otherwise be difficult or
even impossible.
It uses the ABS sensors to monitor the speed
of the driven wheels.
At speeds of up to approximately 80 km/h
(50 mph), it is able to balance out differences in the speed of the driven wheels of approxi-
mately

100 rpm/min caused by a partially
slippery road surface. It does this by braking
the wheel which has lost traction and distrib-
uting more driving force to the other driven
wheel via the differential.
To prevent the disc brake of the braking
wheel from overheating, the EDL cuts out au-
tomatically if subjected to excessive loads.
The vehicle will continue to function normally
without EDL. For this reason, the driver is not
informed that the EDL has been switched off.
The EDL will switch on again automatically
when the brake has cooled down.
Control lamp
A malfunction in the EDL is indicated by the
ESC control lamp . Take the vehicle to a
specialised workshop as soon as possible. WARNING
● When acc el

erating on a slippery surface,
for example on ice and snow, press the accel-
erator carefully. Despite EDL, the driven
wheels may start to spin. This could impair
the vehicle's stability.
● Always adapt your driving style to suit road
conditions
and the traffic situation. Do not let
the extra safety afforded by EDL tempt you in-
to taking any risks when driving, this can
cause accidents. CAUTION
Modifications to the vehicle (e.g. to the en-
gine, the brak e sy

stem, running gear or any
components affecting the wheels and tyres)
could affect the efficiency of the EDL
››› page 259. Hydraulic Brake Assist (HBA)*
The function (Hydraulic Brake Assist HBA) is
only
inc

luded in vehicles with ESC.
In an emergency, most drivers brake in time,
but not with maximum force. This results in
unnecessarily long braking distances.
This is when the brake assist system comes
into action. When pressing the brake pedal
rapidly, the assistant interprets it as an emer-
gency. It very quickly builds up the full brake
pressure so that the ABS can be activated
more quickly and efficiently, thus reducing
braking distance.
Do not reduce the pressure on the brake ped-
al, since the brake assist system switches off
automatically as soon as you release the
brake.
Automatic hazard warning lights activation
The brake lights flash automatically to indi-
cate that the vehicle is braking suddenly or in
an emergency situation. If the emergency
