Control of the vehicle Never coast with engine not
running
Many systems will not function in this
situation (e.g. brake servo unit, power steering). Driving in this manner is a
danger to yourself and others.
All systems function during an
Autostop.
Stop-start system 3 118.
Idle boost
If charging of the vehicle battery is
required due to battery condition, the
power output of the generator must be increased. This will be achieved by
an idle boost which may be audible.
A message appears on the Uplevel
Display.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.
116Driving and operatingUse only floor mats, which fit properly
and are fixed by the retainers on the
driver side.
Steering
If power steering assist is lost
because the engine stops or due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can
be steered but may require increased
effort.
Control indicator c 3 77.Starting and operating
New vehicle running-in Do not brake unnecessarily hard for
the first few journeys.
During the first drive, smoke may
occur because of wax and oil
evaporating off the exhaust system. Park the vehicle in the open for a
while after the first drive and avoid
inhaling the fumes.
During the running-in period, fuel and
engine oil consumption may be
higher.
Additionally, the cleaning process of
the exhaust filter may take place more
often.
Exhaust filter 3 121.
Autostop may be inhibited to allow for charging of the vehicle battery.Ignition switch positions0:ignition off: Some functions
remain active until key is
removed or driver's door is
opened, provided the ignition was
on previously.1:accessory power mode: Steering wheel lock released, some
electrical functions are operable,
ignition is off.
Driving and operating1172:ignition on power mode: Ignition
is on. Control indicators
illuminate and most electrical
functions are operable.
Depending on version, it is
necessary first to push the key all
the way in towards the steering
column and then turn the key
from position 2 to 1 or 0.3:engine start: Release key after
starting procedure begins.
Retained power off
The following electronic systems can
work until the driver's door is opened
or at the latest for 10 minutes after the
ignition is switched off:
● power windows
● power outlets
● power sunroof
Starting the engine
Turn key to position 1 to release the
steering wheel lock.
Manual transmission: operate clutch
and brake pedal.
Do not operate the accelerator pedal. Turn key briefly to position 3 and
release: an automatic procedure operates the starter after a brief
delay, until the engine is running. See
'Automatic Starter Control'.
Before restarting or to switch off the
engine, turn the key back to position
0 .
During an Autostop, the engine can
be started by depressing the clutch
pedal.
Starting the vehicle at low
temperatures
The start of the engine without
additional heaters is possible down to -30 °C . Required is an engine oil with
the correct viscosity, the correct fuel,
performed services and a sufficiently
charged vehicle battery.
Automatic starter controlThis function controls the engine
starting procedure. The driver does
not need to hold the key in position 3.
Once applied, the system will go on
starting automatically until the engine
is running. Because of the checking
procedure, the engine starts running after a short delay.
Possible reasons for a non-starting engine:
● clutch pedal is not operated (manual transmission).
● timeout occurred.
