pedal and press Start/Stop. Release
the button after starting procedure begins.
This option is intended for
emergencies only. Replace the
electronic key battery as soon as
possible 3 22.
For unlocking or locking the doors,

or electronic key system 3 23.
Starting the engine
Vehicles with ignition switch
● Turn key to position 1.
● Move the steering wheel slightly to release the steering wheel
lock.
● Manual transmission: operate clutch and brake pedal.
● Automatic transmission: operate brake pedal and move selector
lever to P or N.

128Driving and operatingRestart of the engine by the driver
Vehicles with manual transmission
Depress the clutch pedal without
depressing the brake pedal to restart the engine.
Vehicles with automatic transmission The engine is restarted if
● the brake pedal is released while
the selector lever is in position D
or M
● or the brake pedal is released or the selector lever is in position N
when the selector lever is moved
to position D or M
● or the selector lever is moved to position R.
Restart of the engine by the stop- start system
The selector lever must be in neutral to enable an automatic restart.
If one of the following conditions
occurs during an Autostop, the
engine will be restarted automatically
by the stop-start system:● The stop-start system is manually deactivated.
● The driver's seat belt is unfastened or the driver's door is
opened.
● The engine temperature is too low.
● The charging level of the vehicle battery is below a defined level.
● The brake vacuum is not sufficient.
● The climate control system requests an engine start.
If an electrical accessory, e.g. a
portable CD player, is connected to
the power outlet, a brief power drop
during the restart might be noticeable.
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 the parking brake. Activate the parking
brake without pressing the
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 or set the selector
lever to position P. On an uphill
slope, turn the front wheels
away from the kerb.
If the vehicle is on a downhill
slope, engage reverse gear or
set the selector lever to position
P . Turn the front wheels
towards the kerb.
● Close the windows.
● Remove the ignition key from the ignition switch or switch off
ignition on vehicles with power
button. Turn the steering wheel until the steering wheel lock is
felt to engage.

Driving and operating157Display indicationThe instructions on the display show: ● general hints and warning messages
● the demand to stop the vehicle, when a parking slot is detected
● the direction of driving during the
parking manoeuvre
● the demand to shift into reverse or first gear
● the demand to stop or to drive slowly
● the successful completion of the parking manoeuvre indicated bya pop-up symbol and a chime
● the cancelling of a parking manoeuvre
Deactivation The current park assist manoeuvre is
cancelled via the button to return to
the previous screen in the Colour Info Display. To deactivate the system
completely, press r Off in the
centre console.The system is deactivated
automatically:
● if the ignition is switched off
● if stalling the engine
● if no manoeuvre is started within 5 minutes of selection of the type
of manoeuvre
● after a prolonged stop of the vehicle during a manoeuvre
● if the electronic stability control is
triggered
● if the speed of the vehicle exceeds the stated limit
● when the driver interrupts movement of the steering wheel
● after four manoeuvre cycles
● on opening the driver's door
● if one of the front wheels encounters an obstacle
● parking manoeuvre successfully ended
Deactivation by the driver or by the
system during manoeuvring will be indicated on the display. Additionally, an acoustic signal sounds.The system is switched off
automatically when attaching a trailer
or bike carrier to the trailer hitch.
Contact your dealer to switch off the
system for a prolonged period.
Fault
In the event of a fault, $ flashes for a
few seconds, accompanied by an
acoustic signal. If the fault occurs
during the use of the system, $
extinguishes.
In the event of a fault in the power
steering, c flashes in the instrument
panel, accompanied by a message.
Note
It is possible that the sensor detects a non-existing object caused by
echo disturbance from external
acoustic noise or mechanical
misalignments (sporadic false
warnings may occur).
Advanced parking assist system
may not respond to changes in the
available parking space after
initiating a parking manoeuvre. The
system may recognise an entry, a
gateway, a courtyard or even a

General information
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment. Only use
approved towing equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for trailer or bike carrier brake light
cannot detect a partial bulb outage.
E.g. in case of four bulbs with a power
of 5 W each, the function only detects
lamp outage when only a single 5 W lamp remains or none remain.
LED lights are not suitable for the
wiring harness of this trailer hitch.
Towing equipment could cover the
opening of the towing eye. If this is the case use the coupling ball bar for
towing.Driving characteristics and
towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricate the coupling ball. However, do not do so if a stabiliser, which acts on thecoupling ball, is being used to reduce
snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a
speed of 80 km/h. A maximum speed
of 100 km/h is only appropriate if an
oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle’s curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.
Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 230.
