Automatic locking Automatic locking after driving off This system allows automatic locking
as soon as the speed of the vehicle
exceeds 10 km/h.
If the vehicle is not closed properly,
the automatic locking does not take
place. This is signalled by the sound
of the locks rebounding,
accompanied by illumination of h in
the instrument panel, an audible signal and the display of an alert
message.
Activation or deactivation
With the ignition on, press Q until an
audible signal starts and a
corresponding message is displayed.
The state of the system stays in
memory when switching off the
ignition.
Automatic relock after unlocking
This feature automatically relocks the
vehicle a short time after unlocking
with the remote control or electronic
key, provided vehicle has not been
opened.

104Lighting
Hazard warning flashers are switched
on automatically in the following
situations:
● braking in an emergency (depending on the force of
deceleration)
● in the event of an accident.
They are switched off by pressing ¨
or accelerating.
Turn lightsup:right turn lightdown:left turn light
A resistance point can be felt when
moving the lever.
Constant flashing is activated when
the lever is being moved beyond the
resistance point. It is deactivated
when the steering wheel is moved in
the opposite direction or lever is
manually moved back to its neutral
position.
After 20 seconds the volume of the audible signal will increase if the
speed is above 60 km/h.
Activate temporary flashing by
holding the lever just before the
resistance point. Turn lights will flash
until lever is being released.
To activate three flashes, tap the
lever briefly without passing the
resistance point.
Front fog lights
Operated by pressing >
.
Light switch in position AUTO:
switching on front fog lights will switch
headlights on automatically.
The fog lights should only be used in
very bad visibility conditions like fog,
snow or heavy rain.
Lighting105Rear fog light
Operated by pressing ø.
Light switch in position AUTO:
switching on rear fog light will switch
headlights on automatically.
Light switch in position 8: rear fog
light can only be switched on with
front fog lights.
The vehicle rear fog light is
deactivated when towing a trailer or a
plug is connected with the socket,
e.g. when a bicycle carrier is used.
Parking lights
When the vehicle is parked, the
parking lights on one side can be
activated:
1. Switch off ignition.
2. Move the lever all the way up (right parking lights) or down (left
parking lights).
Confirmed by a signal and the
corresponding turn light control
indicator.
Reversing lights
The reversing light comes on when
the ignition is on and reverse gear is
selected.
Misted light covers
The inside of the light housing may
mist up briefly in poor, wet and cold weather conditions, in heavy rain or
after washing. The mist disappears
quickly by itself. To help, switch on the headlights.
130Driving and operatingAs soon as the traffic conditions
permit, regenerate the filter by driving at a vehicle speed of at least 60 km/h
until the control indicator
extinguishes.
Note
On a new vehicle, the first exhaust
filter regeneration operations may
be accompanied by a burning smell, which is normal. Following
prolonged operation of the vehicle at
very low speed or at idle, water
vapour can be emitted at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the
vehicle or the environment.
Cleaning process not possible
If % or C stays on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message,
this indicates that the exhaust filter
additive level is too low.
The reservoir must be topped-up
without delay. Seek the assistance of
a workshop.Catalytic converter
The catalytic converter reduces the
amount of harmful substances in the
exhaust gases.Caution
Fuel grades other than those listed on pages 3 166, 3 226 could
damage the catalytic converter or
electronic components.
Unburnt fuel will overheat and
damage the catalytic converter.
Therefore avoid excessive use of the starter, running the fuel tank
dry and starting the engine by
pushing or towing.
In the event of misfiring, uneven
engine running, a reduction in engine performance or other unusual
problems, have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop as soon as
possible. In an emergency, driving
can be continued for a short period,
keeping vehicle speed and engine
speed low.
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 ammonia released by
the fluid reacts with nitrous gases
(NO x) from the exhaust and turns it
into nitrogen and water.
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.
154Driving and operatingThe driver must control acceleration,
braking and gear shifting, while
steering is done automatically. The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
It may be necessary to move forwards and backwards more than once.
Instructions are given in the Info
Display 3 90.
Advanced parking assist can only be activated when driving forwards.
Advanced parking assist is always
combined with front-rear parking assist.
The system has six ultrasonic parking
sensors each in both the rear and
front bumper.
