A resistance point can be felt when
moving the stalk.
Constant flashing is activated when
the stalk is being moved beyond the
resistance point. It is deactivated
when the steering wheel is moved in
the opposite direction or stalk is
manually moved back to its neutral
position.
Activate temporary flashing by
holding the stalk just before the
resistance point. Turn lights will flash
until stalk is being released.
To activate three flashes, tap the stalk
briefly without passing the resistance
point.
Rear fog light
Operated by pressing ø.
The rear fog light is automatically set

Digital audio broadcasting
Digital audio broadcasting (DAB)
broadcasts radio stations digitally.DAB stations are indicated by the
programme name instead of the
broadcasting frequency.
General information ● With DAB, several radio programmes (services) can be
broadcast on a single ensemble.
● Besides high-quality digital audio
services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
data and a multitude of other data services including travel and
traffic information.
● As long as a given DAB receiver can pick up the signal sent out bya broadcasting station (even if
the signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
● In the event of poor reception, the
volume is reduced automatically
to avoid the output of
disagreeable noises.
If the DAB signal is too weak to
be picked up by the receiver,
reception is interrupted
completely. This incident can be
avoided by activating DAB to
DAB linking and / or DAB to FMlinking in the DAB menu (see
below).
● Interference caused by stations that are on nearby frequencies (a
phenomenon that is typical of AM and FM reception) does not
occur with DAB.
● If the DAB signal is reflected by natural obstacles or buildings,
the reception quality of DAB is
improved, whereas AM or FM
reception is considerably
impaired in such cases.
● When DAB reception is enabled, the FM tuner of the Infotainmentsystem remains active in the
background and continually
searches for the FM stations with
the best reception. If TP 3 122 is
activated, traffic announcements
of the FM station with the best
reception are issued. Deactivate
TP if DAB reception should not
be interrupted by FM traffic
announcements.

190Driving and operatingFault
Traffic sign assistant may not operate
correctly if:
● The area of the windscreen, where the front camera is
located, is not clean or affected
by foreign items, e.g. stickers.
● Traffic signs are completely or partially covered or difficult to
discern.
● There are adverse environmental
conditions, e.g. heavy rain, snow,
direct sunlight or shadows.
● Traffic signs are incorrectly mounted or damaged.
● Traffic signs do not comply with the Vienna Convention on Road
Signs and Signals.Caution
The system is intended to help the driver within a defined speed
range to discern certain traffic
signs. Do not ignore traffic signs
which are not displayed by the
system.
The system does not discern any other than the conventional traffic
signs that might give or end a
speed limit.
Do not let this special feature
tempt you into taking risks when
driving.
Always adapt speed to the road
conditions.
The driver assistance systems do not relieve the driver from full
responsibility for vehicle
operation.
Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. The front camera
observes the lane markings between
which the vehicle is driving. If the
vehicle approaches a lane marking, the steering wheel is gently turned to
position the vehicle back into the lane.
Override the system by turning the
steering wheel.
When crossing a lane marking
significantly, lane keep assist starts a
visual and acoustic warning.
Unintended lane departure is
assumed:
● without using turn light
● using the turn light in the opposite
direction of the lane departure
● without braking
● without acceleration
● without active steering
Note
The system is switched off during
detection of ambiguous lane
markings, e.g. in construction areas.
Note
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow,
too wide or too curved.

204Driving and operating● Short flashing green – One hornchirp: Vehicle is plugged in. High
voltage battery is not fully
charged. High voltage battery is
charging. Flash rate increases
from one to four flashes as the high voltage battery charges.
one flash: 0–25% charge
two flashes: 25–50% charge
three flashes: 50–75% charge
four flashes: 75–100% charge
● Short flashing green – Two audible beeps: Vehicle is
charging but will delay by
programmable charging at least once before the charge is
complete. Flash rate increases
from one to four flashes as the
high voltage battery charges.
● Short flashing green – Four audible beeps: Insufficient time to
fully charge by departure time
due to the selected rate
preference. To increase the high
voltage battery state of charge at
the departure time perform a
delayed charging override.
Programmable charging 3 196.● Long flashing green – Two horn
chirps: Charging is delayed by
programmable charging.
Charging will begin later.
● Solid green – No horn chirps: Charging is complete.
● Solid yellow – No horn chirp: Vehicle is plugged in. It is normalfor the charging status indicator
to turn yellow for a few seconds
after plugging in a compatible
charge cord. The solid yellow
may remain illuminated
depending on the vehicle and if
there is a total utility interruption.
This may also indicate that the
charging system has detected a
fault and will not charge the high
voltage battery.
● No light signal (upon plug‐in) – No horn chirps: Charge cord
connection should be checked.
● No light signal (after indication of
green or yellow charging status
indicator) – No horn chirps:
Charge cord connection should
be checked. If connection is
correct, this may be due to a power failure and charging willbegin later. This may also occur
if the vehicle has detected a high voltage charging system fault.
● No light signal – Three horn chirps: Charge port door is open.
● No light signal – Horn chirps repeatedly: The power supplywas interrupted before the
charging process could be
completed. Repeated chirps will
stop if power is restored within
90 seconds.
To stop the alert, unplug the
charge cord or press ( on the
electronic key.
The charge power loss alert can
be disabled in the Info Display.
Vehicle personalisation 3 90.
The system may be thermally
conditioning the high voltage battery
during any of the states mentioned
above, requiring electric energy to be
transferred to the vehicle.
If the vehicle is plugged in and vehicle power is on, the charging status
indicator will flash or illuminate solid
green, depending on the charge level.
