Battery discharge protection Vehicle battery state of charge
function
The function guarantees longest
vehicle battery life via a generator with controllable power output and
optimised power distribution.
To prevent discharge of the vehicle
battery when driving, the following
systems are reduced automatically in
two stages and finally switched off:
● Heated rear window and mirrors
● Heated seats
● FanIn the second stage a message which confirms the activation of the vehicle
battery discharge protection will be
displayed in the Driver Information Centre.
Switching off electric lights
To prevent discharge of the vehicle
battery when the ignition is switched
off, some interior lights are switched
off automatically after some time.

Driving and operating133Release the accelerator pedal andthe speed limiter function is
reactivated once a speed lower than
the limit speed is obtained.
Deactivation of the functionality Press y: speed limiter is deactivated
and the vehicle can be driven without speed limit.
The limited speed is stored and a
corresponding message appears in
the Driver Information Centre.
Resume limit speed
Turn thumb wheel to RES/+. The
stored speed limit will be obtained.
Switching off the system
Press L, the speed limit indication in
the Driver Information Centre
extinguishes. The stored speed is
deleted.
By pressing m to activate cruise
control or by switching off the ignition, speed limiter is also deactivated and
the stored speed is deleted.Parking assist
Rear parking assist9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for the parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area while reversing and using the rear parking assist system.
The rear parking assist makes
parking easier by measuring the
distance between the vehicle and
rear obstacles. It informs and warns
the driver by giving acoustic signals.
The system has four ultrasonic
parking sensors in the rear bumper.
Activation
When reverse gear is engaged, the
system is ready to operate
automatically.
An illuminated LED in the parking
assist button r indicates that the
system is ready to operate.
Indication
The system warns the driver with
acoustic signals against potentially
hazardous obstacles behind the
vehicle. The interval between the
sounds becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to that obstacle.
When the distance is less than
approx. 30 cm, the sound is
continuous.
Additionally, the distance to obstacles may be shown in the Driver
Information Centre.

Vehicle care151Tail lights
1. Remove cover on the respondingside.
2.Unscrew two plastic securing nuts
from the inside by hand.
3. Carefully withdraw tail light assembly from recesses and
remove. Make sure that the cable duct remains in position.
4. Detach wiring plug from bulb carrier.
5. Remove the bulb holder by turning and replace the bulb by
withdrawing or pushing the bulb
slightly into the socket and rotating anticlockwise:
Tail light/Brake light ( 1)
Turn signal light ( 2)
6. Insert bulb holder and turn clockwise. Connect the wiringplug. Fit light assembly with the
retaining pins into the recesses of
the vehicle body and tighten the
plastic securing nuts from the
inside of the load compartment.
Attach cover.

162Vehicle careThe menu can be selected by thebuttons on the turn signal lever.
Press MENU to select the Vehicle
Information Menu X.
Turn the adjuster wheel to select the
tyre pressure monitoring system.
System status and pressure warnings
are displayed by a message with the
corresponding tyre flashing in the
Driver Information Centre.
The system considers the tyre
temperature for the warnings.
A detected low tyre pressure
condition is indicated by illumination
of control indicator w 3 71.
If w illuminates, stop as soon as
possible and inflate the tyres as
recommended 3 186.
If
w flashes for 60-90 seconds and
then illuminates continuously, there is
a fault in the system. Consult a
workshop.
After inflating, driving may be
required to update the tyre pressure
values in the Driver Information
Centre. During this time w may
illuminate.
If w illuminates at lower temperatures
and extinguishes after some driving,
this could be an indicator for
approaching a low tyre pressure
condition. Check tyre pressure.
Vehicle messages 3 79.
If the tyre pressure must be reduced
or increased, switch off ignition.
Only mount wheels with pressure
sensors, otherwise the tyre pressure
will not be displayed and w
illuminates continuously.
A spare wheel or temporary spare
wheel is not equipped with pressure
sensors. The tyre pressure
monitoring system is not operational
for these wheels. Control indicator w

Vehicle care163illuminates. For the further three
wheels the system remains
operational.
The use of commercially available
liquid tyre repair kits can impair the
function of the system. Factory-
approved repair kits can be used.
Operating electronic devices or being
close to facilities using similar wave
frequencies could disrupt the tyre
pressure monitoring system.
Each time the tyres are replaced, tyre pressure monitoring system sensors
must be dismounted and serviced.
For the screwed sensor: replace
valve core and sealing ring. For
clipped sensor: replace complete
valve stem.
Vehicle loading status Adjust tyre pressure to load condition
according to the tyre information label or tyre pressure chart 3 186, and
select the appropriate setting in the
Tyre load menu in the Driver
Information Centre 3 73. This setting
is the reference for the tyre pressure
warnings.The Tyre Load menu only appears if
the vehicle is in a standstill and the
parking brake is applied. On vehicles
with automatic transmission, the
selector lever must be in P.
Select:
● Light for comfort pressure up to
3 people.
● Eco for Eco pressure up to
3 people.
● Max for full load.
Tyre pressure sensor matching
process
Each tyre pressure sensor has a
unique identification code. The
identification code must be matched
to a new wheel position after rotating the wheels or exchanging the
complete wheel set and if one or more
tyre pressure sensors were replaced. The tyre pressure sensor matching
process should also be performed
after replacing a spare wheel with a
road wheel containing the tyre
pressure sensor.
The malfunction light w and the
warning message or code should
extinguish at the next ignition cycle.
The sensors are matched to the
wheel positions using a relearn tool,
in the following order: left side front
wheel, right side front wheel, right
side rear wheel and left side rear
wheel. The turn signal light at the
current active position is illuminated
until the sensor is matched.
Consult a workshop for service. There
are two minutes to match the first
wheel position, and five minutes
overall to match all four wheel

164Vehicle carepositions. If it takes longer, the
matching process stops and must be
restarted.
The tyre pressure sensor matching
process is:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. On vehicles with automatic transmission: set the selector
lever to P.
On vehicles with manual
transmission: select neutral.
4. Use MENU on the turn signal
lever to select the Vehicle
Information Menu in the Driver
Information Centre.
5. Turn the adjuster wheel to scroll to
the tyre pressure menu.
6. Press SET/CLR to begin the
sensor matching process. A
message requesting acceptance
of the process should be
displayed.
Press SET/CLR again to confirm
the selection. The horn sounds
twice to indicate the receiver is in
relearn mode.7. Start with the left side front wheel.
8. Place the relearn tool against the tyre sidewall, near the valve stem.Then press the button to activate
the tyre pressure sensor. A horn
chirp confirms that the sensor
identification code has been
matched to this wheel position.
9. Proceed to the right side front wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 8.
10. Proceed to the right side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 8.
11. Proceed to the left side rear wheel, and repeat the procedure
in Step 8. The horn sounds twice
to indicate the sensor
identification code has been
matched to the left side rear tyre,
and the tyre pressure sensor
matching process is no longer
active.
12. Turn off the ignition.13. Set all four tyres to the recommended air pressure level
as indicated on the tyre pressure
label.
14. Ensure the tyre loading status is set according to the selected
pressure 3 73.
Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons it is recommended
that the tread depth of the tyres on
one axle should not vary by more than 2 mm.
