198Driving and operatingThe camera is mounted in the tailgateor the left rear door.
The area displayed by the camera is
limited. The distance of the image that
appears on the display differs from
the actual distance.
Guidelines
Dynamic guidelines are horizontal
lines at one metre intervals projected
onto the picture to define the distance
to displayed objects.
Trajectory lane of the vehicle is
shown in accordance with the
steering angle.

Switching off The camera is switched off when a
forward gear is engaged.
System limitations The rear view camera may not
operate properly when:
● the surrounding is dark
● the beam of headlights is shining
directly into the camera lenses
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the camera lenses are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt.
Clean the lense, rinse with water,
and wipe with a soft cloth
● the tailgate will be opened
● the vehicle is towing an electrically connected trailer,bicycle carrier, etc.● the vehicle had a rear end accident
● there are extreme temperature changes
Lane keep assist Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. A front camera located at the top of the windscreen 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. The driver will then notice a turning
movement of the steering wheel. Turn
steering wheel in same direction, if
system steers not sufficient. Turn
steering wheel gently into opposite
direction, if lane change is intended.
When the system steers to correct the trajectory of the vehicle, a flashes
yellow in the instrument cluster.
A warning message in the Driver
Information Centre accompanied by a warning chime alerts the driver when
immediate driver´s action is required.
Driving and operating199Unintended lane departure is not
assumed by the system when the turn
lights are operated and during 20 s
after turn lights have been switched
off.
Note
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow,
too wide or too curved.
Following preconditions have to be
fullfilled:
● vehicle speed must be between 65 km/h and 180 km/h
● the driver must hold the steering wheel with both hands
● the change of trajectory is not accompanied by operation of theturn signals
● the Electronic Stability Control is activated and not in operation
● the vehicle is not connected to a trailer or an electric bicycle carrier
● normal driving behaviour (system
detects dynamic driving style, i.e. pressure on the brake or
accelerator pedal)
● roads with poor lane markings● no spare wheel is used
● the driver needs to be active during the correction
● the vehicle is not driven in a tight
corner
Activation
If the system is activated, the LED in
the button Ó is not illuminated. To
activate the system when the system
is deactivated, press Ó.
The system is operational at vehicle
speeds between 65 km/h and
180 km/h and if lane markings are
detectable. The driver must hold the
steering wheel with both hands. The Electronic Stability Control system
must be activated.
The control indicator a flashes
yellow during trajectory correction.
If the driver wishes to maintain the
trajectory of the vehicle, he can
prevent the correction by keeping a
firm grip on the steering wheel, e.g.
during an avoiding manoeuvre. The correction is interrupted if the turn
lights are operated.
There is no correction triggered when
the turn lights are operated and
during a few seconds after turn lights
have been switched off.
If the system detects that the driver is not holding the steering wheel firmly
enough during an automatic
correction of trajectory, it interrupts
the correction. A warning message in
the Driver Information Centre
accompanied by a warning chime
alerts the driver when immediate
driver´s action is required.
If the side blind spot alert is activated
and the driver is about to change the
lane, the system corrects the
trajectory of the vehicle despite the
Driving and operating201vehicle 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 thedriving 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.
Activation or Deactivation
The system can be activated or
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 119.
The state of the system stays in
memory when the ignition is switched
off.
Driving time alert The driver gets notified by a pop-up
reminder symbol € in the Driver
Information Centre simultaneously with an acoustic alert if the driver has
not taken a break after 2 hours of
driving at a speed above 65 km/h. The
alert is repeated hourly until the
vehicle is stopped, no matter how
vehicle speed evolves.The counting of driving time alert is
reset if one of the following conditions is met:
● The vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes with theengine running.
● The ignition has been switched off for a few minutes.
● The driver's seat belt has been unfastened and the driver's door
is open.
Note
If the vehicle speed drops below
65 km/h, the system is paused. The
driving time is counted again once
the speed is above 65 km/h.
Driver drowsiness detection
The system monitors the driver's level
of vigilance. A camera at the top of the windscreen detects variations in
trajectory compared to the lane
markings. This system is particularly
suited to fast roads (speed higher
than 65 km/h).
If the trajectory of the vehicle
suggests a certain level of
drowsiness or inattention by the
Driving and operating2093.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 3 164.

Wheels and tyres
Tyre condition, wheel condition Drive over edges slowly and at right
angles if possible. Driving over sharp
edges can cause tyre and wheel
damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb when parking.
Regularly check the wheels for
damage. Seek the assistance of a
workshop in the event of damage or
unusual wear.
Winter tyres
Winter tyres improve driving safety at temperatures below 7 °C and shouldtherefore be fitted on all wheels.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view.
All tyre sizes are permitted as winter
tyres 3 263.

Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of your vehicle.
The maximum speed is achievable at kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus
125 kg payload. Optional equipment
could reduce the maximum speed of
the vehicle.
Directional tyres
Directional tyres should be mounted
so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel. This also applies to vehicles
with tyre pressure monitoring system.
Tyre pressure 3 263.
The tyre pressure information label
on the left door frame indicates the
original equipment tyres and the
correspondent tyre pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter tyres.
Always inflate the spare tyre to the
pressure specified for full load.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
Tyre pressures differ depending on
various options. For the correct tyre
pressure value, follow the procedure
below:
1. Identify the engine identifier code.
Engine data 3 259.
2. Identify the respective tyre.
The tyre pressure tables show all
possible tyre combinations 3 263.
For the tyres approved for your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
