Operating modes
Note
To prevent them from being heard through
the speakers, the button and mobile t el
e-
phone alert tones must be disconnected.
Where necessary, disconnect the headset
from the mobile telephone you wish to con-
nect to the system. Pairing and connecting a mobile
telephone to the Inf
ot

ainment sys-
tem In order to manage a mobile telephone via
the Inf
ot
ainment syst em, it is necessary t
o
pair both de

vices once.
For your safety, we recommend you make the
link when the vehicle is stationary. In some
countries it is not possible to perform the pair-
ing with the vehicle running.
Conditions
You must guarantee the following setup in the
mobile phone and the Infotainment system:

Driver assistance systems

pear on the instrument panel to vary, facilitat-
ing more efficient driving.
“Dual Ride” suspension
The “Dual Ride” suspension features a com-
fortable suspension in the Eco and Normal
profiles, suitable for daily use. Contrasting
with this it features a sporty suspension in the
Sport profile, suitable for a sporty driving
style. In the Individual profile the suspen-
sion can be switched between Normal or
Sport , depending on personal preference.
In the event of a fault in the “Dual Ride” sus-
pension, the following message is displayed
on the instrument panel screen Fault: shock absorber regulation .
Address
Power steering becomes more robust in Sport mode to enable a sportier driving style.
Air conditioning
In vehicles with Climatronic, this can operate
in eco mode, especially restricting fuel con-
sumption. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
The acceleration and braking gradient of the
adaptiv
e cruise control varies according to
the active driving profile

Type of petrol  Applies to vehicles: with petrol engine
The correct grade of petr ol is list

ed inside the
fuel tank flap.
The vehicle is equipped with a catalytic con-
verter and must only be run on unleaded
petrol. The petrol must comply with the
standard EN 228 and be sulphur-free. Fuels
with a 10% ethanol ratio can be refuelled
(E10) 1)
. The types of petrol are differentiated
by using the octane numbers (RON) or via
the anti-knock index (AKI).
The following pieces of text show the infor-
mation included in the corresponding stickers
on the tank lid (examples):
Super unleaded petrol 95 octane petrol or
normal 91 octane petrol at least
We recommend refuelling with super 95 oc-
tane petrol (91 AKI). If not available: normal 91 3 octane petrol (87 AKI) (with a slight power
l
oss).
Super unl eaded petr ol, 95 oct
anes at
l

east
You should use super 95 octane petrol (91
AKI) at least.
If super is not available, if necessary, use nor-
mal 91 octane petrol (87 AKI). In this case only
use moderate engine speeds and a light
throttle. Refuel with super as soon as possi-
ble.
Unleaded super plus 98 octane petrol or
super 95 octane petrol at least
We recommend refuelling with super plus 98
octane petrol (93 AKI). If not available: super
95 octane petrol (91 AKI) (with a slight power
loss).
If super is not available, if necessary, use nor-
mal 91 octane petrol (87 AKI). In this case only
use moderate engine speeds and a light
throttle. Refuel with super as soon as possi-
ble. CAUTION
