Park Assist*
The Park Assist function can help the driver
when maneuvering in tight spaces by indicating distances to obstacles using audible signals andgraphics in the center display.
Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sec- tors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehi- cle in relation to objects that have been detected. The marked sector indicates where the obstacle is located. The closer the vehicle symbol is to amarked sector, the closer the detected obstacleis to your vehicle. The audible signals will also speed up the closer the obstacle is to the vehicle. The volume of theaudio system will be automatically lowered. Audible signals for obstacles in front and to the sides of the vehicle are active when the vehicle is moving but will cease after the vehicle has beenstationary for approx. 2 seconds. Audible signalsfor obstacles behind the vehicle will remain activeeven when the vehicle is stationary. If a detected obstacle is within 30 cm (1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, the tone willbecome constant and the active sensor's fieldclosest to the vehicle symbol will be filled in. The volume of the Park Assist audible signals can be adjusted while the signal is being given using the
>II knob or in the center display's Top
view under
Settings.

Start/Stop function
Start/Stop is a function that temporarily switches off the engine when the vehicle has stopped,e.g. at a traffic light or in heavy traffic, and thenstarts it again automatically when the brakepedal is released.
The Start/Stop function reduces fuel consump- tion, which helps to reduce exhaust emissions. The system makes it possible to drive more eco- nomically and climate-smart by letting the engineauto-stop when appropriate.

Driving with the Start/Stop function
Start/Stop is a function that temporarily turns off the engine when the vehicle is stationary andthen automatically starts it again when the vehi-cle starts moving.
The Start/Stop function is available when the engine is started and can be activated if certainconditions are met. The instrument panel indi-cates if the function is available, active or notavailable. All of the vehicle's ordinary systems, such as lighting, radio, etc. function normally when theengine has been auto-stopped. Certain functionsmay be temporarily reduced, however, such asthe climate system's blower speed or extremelyhigh audio system volume.
Auto-stopTo auto-stop the engine:
• Stop the vehicle by applying the brakes andkeep the brake pedal depressed. The enginewill auto-stop.
In Eco or Comfort 6
drive mode, the engine may
auto-stop before the vehicle has completely stop-ped. With Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assist acti- vated, the engine will auto-stop after approxi-mately three seconds.
Auto-startThe following conditions must be met for theengine to auto-start. • Release the brake pedal. The engine will auto-start and the vehicle can be driven. Onan uphill gradient, Hill Start Assist (HSA) willactivate to help prevent the vehicle from roll-ing backward.
• When Auto-hold is activated, auto-start willbe delayed until the accelerator is pressed.
• When Adaptive Cruise Control or Pilot Assistare activated, the engine will auto-start whenthe accelerator pedal is depressed or the
button on the left-side steering wheel
keypad is pressed.
• Maintain pressure on the brake pedal and press the accelerator pedal. The engine willauto-start.
• On a downhill gradient: Release the brakepedal slightly so that the vehicle begins toroll. The engine will auto-start after a slightincrease in speed.

Battery drain The electrical functions in the vehicle drain the battery to varying degrees. Avoid using ignitionmode II when the engine is switched off. Use
ignition mode I instead, as this uses less electri-
cal current.
Note that certain accessories may also drain power from the electrical system. Do not usefunctions that use a lot of electrical current whenthe engine is turned off. Examples of such func-tions are:
• blower
• headlights
• windshield wipers
• audio system (especially at high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low, a message isshown in the driver display. The vehicle's energy-saving function will then turn off or reduce certainfunctions, such as the blower and/or the audio system.
–Charge the battery by starting the engine and let it run for at least 15 minutes (drivingcharges the battery faster than letting theengine idle).

Optimal sound reproductionThe audio system is precalibrated for optimalsound reproduction using digital signal process-ing. This calibration takes into account speakers,amplifiers, passenger compartment acoustics, lis-tener position, etc. for each combination of vehi-cle model and audio system. There is also adynamic calibration that takes into account thevolume control setting and the vehicle's speed.
Sound settings as needed
In Top view under SettingsSound, the fol-
lowing settings can be selected:
•
Tone — personal preference for bass, treble,
equalizer for example.
•
