Driving and operating203Fault
In the event of a fault, a and H
appear in the instrument panel,
accompanied by a display message
and a warning chime. Contact a
dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.
System limitations The system performance may be
affected by:
● windscreen not clean or affected by foreign objects, e.g. stickers
● close vehicles ahead
● banked roads
● narrow, winding or hilly roads
● road edges
● sudden lighting changes
● adverse environmental conditions, e.g. heavy rain or
snow
● vehicle modifications, e.g. tyresSwitch off the system if the system is
disturbed by tar marks, shadows,
road cracks, temporary or
construction lane markings, or other
road imperfections.9 Warning
Always keep your attention on the
road and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane, otherwise
vehicle damage, injury or death
could occur.
Lane keep assist does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
The system may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give an alert,
even if a lane marking is detected.
The steering of the lane keep
assist may not be sufficient to
avoid a lane departure.
The system may not detect hands-
off driving due to external
influences like road condition and
surface and weather. The driver has full responsibility to control the
vehicle and is always required to
keep the hands on the steering
wheel while driving.
Using the system while towing a
trailer or on slippery roads could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
and a crash. Switch the system off.
Driver alert
The driver alert system monitores the driving time and the vigilance of the
driver. Monitoring the vigilance of the
driver is based on the trajectory
variations of the vehicle compared to
the lane markings.
The system includes a driving time
alert combined with driver drowsiness detection.
9 Warning
The system cannot replace the
need for vigilance on the part of
the driver. Taking a break is
recommended as soon as feeling tired or at least every two hours.
Do not take the steering wheel
when feeling tired.
Driving and operating211Type B
1. Connect the trailer plug to thesocket and fasten the breakaway
stopping cable to the eye on the
carrier.
2. Attach the trailer.
Type C
1. Remove the safety splint.
2. Pull the lever and open the towing
ring.
3. Attach the trailer, close the towing
ring and fix the splint.
4. Connect the trailer plug to the socket and attach the breakaway
stopping cable to the eye on the
carrier.
Trailer stability assist If the system detects snaking
movements, engine power is reduced
and the vehicle / trailer combination is
selectively braked until the snaking
ceases. While system is working keep
steering wheel as still as possible.
Trailer stability assist is a function of
the Electronic Stability Control 3 165.

Tools
Vehicles with spare wheel
Open the cover of the footwell storage
3 75.
236Vehicle careTemporary spare wheel
The use of tyre chains is not permitted
on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre repair kit
Minor damage to the tyre tread can be repaired with the tyre repair kit.
Do not remove foreign bodies from
the tyres.
Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that
is at tyre's sidewall cannot be repaired with the tyre repair kit.9 Warning
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h.
Do not use for a lengthy period.
Steering and handling may be
affected.
In the case of a flat tyre:
Apply the parking brake and engage
first gear, reverse gear or P.
Open the cover of the footwell storage
3 75.
The tyre repair kit is located in the
stowage compartment underneath
the right front seat.
1. Remove the sealant bottle and the
compressor.
2. Pull speed limit label from sealant
bottle and place it in driver's
visible area.3. Remove the electrical connection cable and air hose from the
stowage compartments on the
underside of the compressor.
Vehicle care2453. Connect the black lead to thenegative terminal of the booster
battery.
4. Connect the other end of the black
lead to a vehicle grounding point
of your vehicle in the engine
compartment.
Route the leads so that they cannot
catch on rotating parts in the engine
compartment.
To start the engine: 1. Start the engine of the vehicle providing the jump.
2. After five minutes, start the other engine. Start attempts should be
made for no longer than 15 s at an interval of 1 min.
3. Allow both engines to idle for approx. three minutes with the
leads connected.
4. Switch on electrical consumers e.g. headlights, heated rear
window of the vehicle receiving
the jump start.
5. Reverse above sequence exactly when removing leads.Towing
Towing the vehicle
Wrap a cloth around the tip of a flat
screwdriver, for example, to prevent
paint damage. Insert the screwdriverin the slot at the lower part of the cap.
Release the cap carefully.
The towing eye is stowed with the vehicle tools 3 230.
Screw in the towing eye as far as it will
go until it stops in a horizontal
position.
Attach a tow rope – or better still a tow
rod – to the towing eye.
The towing eye must only be used for
towing and not for recovering the
vehicle.
Switch on ignition to release steering
wheel lock and to permit operation of
brake lights, horn and windscreen
wiper.
Customer information273Depending on technical equipment
level, the data stored is as follows:
● system component operating states (e.g. fill level, tyre
pressure, battery status)
● faults and defects in important system components (e.g. lights,
brakes)
● system reactions in special driving situations (e.g. triggeringof an airbag, actuation of the
stability control systems)
● information on events damaging the vehicle
● for electric vehicles the amount of
charge in the high-voltage
battery, estimated range
In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be
necessary to save data that would
otherwise just be volatile.
When you use services (e.g. repairs,
maintenance), the operating data
saved can be read together with the
vehicle identification number and
used when necessary. Staff working
for the service network ( e.g. garages,
manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.breakdown services) can read the
data from the vehicle. The same
applies to warranty work and quality
assurance measures.
Data is generally read via the OBD
(On-Board Diagnostics) port
prescribed by law in the vehicle. The operating data which is read out,
documents the technical condition of
the vehicle or individual components
and assists with fault diagnosis,
compliance with warranty obligations
and quality improvement. This data,
in particular information on
component stress, technical events,
operator errors and other faults, is
transmitted to the manufacturer
where appropriate, together with the
vehicle identification number. The
manufacturer is also subject to
product liability. The manufacturer
potentially also uses operating data
from vehicles for product recalls. This
data can also be used to check
customer warranty and guarantee
claims.
Fault memories in the vehicle can be
reset by a service company when
carrying out servicing or repairs or at
your request.Comfort and infotainment
functions
Comfort settings and custom settings can be stored in the vehicle and
changed or reset at any time.
Depending on the equipment level in
question, these include
● seat and steering wheel position settings
● chassis and air conditioning settings
● custom settings such as interior lighting
You can input your own data in the
infotainment functions for your
vehicle as part of the selected
features.
Depending on the equipment level in
question, these include
● multimedia data such as music, videos or photos for playback in
an integrated multimedia system
● address book data for use with an
integrated hands-free system or an integrated navigation system
