This feature locks the vehicle
automatically after several seconds if
an electronic key has been
recognised previously inside the
vehicle, all doors have then been
closed and the electronic key does
not remain within the vehicle.
If the electronic key remains in the
vehicle or the ignition is not off,
passive locking will not be permitted.
If there have been two or more
electronic keys in the vehicle and the
ignition was on once, the feature
locks the vehicle if just one electronic key is taken out of the vehicle.
To prevent passive locking of the
vehicle e.g. when refuelling or if
passengers remain in the vehicle, the
system must be disabled.
To disable the system, press the
central locking button c for a few
seconds while one door is open. An
acoustic signal sounds three times to
confirm deactivation. The function
remains disabled until the central
locking button e is pressed or the
ignition is switched on.Activation or deactivation of passive

Central locking system 3 26.
Power tailgate
9 Warning
Take care when operating the
power tailgate. Risk of injury,
particularly to children.
Keep a close watch on the
movable tailgate when operating.
Ensure that nothing becomes
trapped during operating and no
one is standing within the moving
area.
The power tailgate can be operated
by:
● The electronic key.
● Hands-free operation with motion
sensor below the rear bumper.
● The button under the exterior tailgate moulding and C in the
open tailgate.
● The switch C on the inside of
the driver's door.
On vehicles with automatic
transmission, the tailgate can only be operated when the vehicle is
stationary and with selector lever in P.
The turn lights flash and a chime sounds when the power tailgate is
operating.
Note
Operating the power tailgate does
not operate the central locking
system. To open the tailgate with the button on the electronic key, or with
the tailgate button or via hands-free
operation, it is not necessary to
unlock the vehicle. A precondition is
that the electronic key is outside the
vehicle, within a range of approx.
1 m of the tailgate.
Do not leave the electronic key in the
load compartment.
Lock the vehicle after closing if it was
unlocked previously.
Central locking system 3 26.
Operation with the electronic key
Seats, restraints57Seat belts
The seat belts are locked during
heavy acceleration or deceleration of
the vehicle, holding the occupants in
the seat position. Thereby the risk of
injury is considerably reduced.
9 Warning
Fasten seat belt before each trip.
In the event of an accident, people
not wearing seat belts endanger their fellow occupants and
themselves.
Seat belts are designed to be used by only one person at a time.
Child restraint system 3 65.
Periodically check all parts of the belt
system for damage, soiling and
proper functionality.
Have damaged components replaced by a workshop. After an accident,
have the belts and triggered belt
pretensioners replaced by a
workshop.
Note
Make sure that the belts are not
damaged by shoes or sharp-edged objects or trapped. Prevent dirt from getting into the belt retractors.
Seat belt reminder
Indicates seat belt status for front seats by control indicators X and k,
or for rear seats by the symbol X in
the Driver Information Centre 3 105.
Belt force limiters
Stress on the body is reduced by the
gradual release of the belt during a
collision.Belt pretensioners
In the event of a head-on, rear-end or
side-on collision of a certain severity,
the front and rear outer seat belts are tightened.9 Warning
Incorrect handling (e.g. removal or
fitting of belts) can trigger the belt
pretensioners.
Deployment of the belt pretensioners
is indicated by continuous illumination
of control indicator v 3 106.
Triggered belt pretensioners must be replaced by a workshop. Belt
pretensioners can only be triggered
once.
Note
Do not affix or install accessories or
other objects that may interfere with
the operation of the belt
pretensioners. Do not make any
modifications to belt pretensioner
components as this will invalidate
the operating permit of your vehicle.
78Storage● Pull the release lever on one orboth outer sides and fold down
the backrests onto the seat
cushion.9 Warning
Take care when folding down the
right outer seat backrest if the
centre seat backrest is already
folded down. Risk of injury due to bolt protruding from the inner side
of the backrest.
● Alternatively fold seat backrests from the load compartment: pullswitch on left or right sidewall of
the load compartment to fold the
corresponding part of the rear
seat backrest.9 Warning
Take care when operating the rear
backrests from the load
compartment. The backrest is
folded with considerable force.
Risk of injury, particularly to
children.
Ensure that nothing is attached to
the rear seats or located on the
seat cushion.
● To fold up, raise the backrests and guide them into an upright
position until they engage
audibly. Make sure that the belts
are positioned correctly and stay
clear of the folding area.
The backrests are properly
engaged when the red mark on
the release levers on both sides
are no longer visible.
9 Warning
When folding up, ensure that
backrests are securely locked in
position before driving. Failure to
do so may result in personal injury or damage to the load or vehicle in the event of hard braking or a
collision.
Driving and operating197In the following cases, Active
emergency braking performance is
limited:
● riving on winding or hilly roads
● detecting all vehicles, especially vehicles with a trailer, tractors,
muddy vehicles, etc.
● detecting a vehicle when weather
limits visibility, such as in fog,
rain, or snow
● during nighttime driving
● weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow
● the sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, etc.
● the windscreen is damaged or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
To avoid malfunction keep the areas
of the camera sensor in the
windscreen and the radar sensor in
the radiator grille always clean from
dirt, dust, ice and snow.Complete attention is always required while driving, and you should be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes and / or steer the vehicle to
avoid crashes.
Fault
In case the system requires a service, a message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
If the system does not work as it
should do, vehicle messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 122.
Front pedestrian protection Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with nearby
pedestrians when driving in a forward
gear.
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen to detect a pedestrian directly ahead, in your path.
Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a
forward gear at speeds between8 km/h and 80 km/h. Additionally
Front pedestrian protection can
provide a boost to braking or
automatically brake the vehicle.
During daytime driving, the system
detects pedestrians up to a distance
of approx. 40 m. During nighttime
driving, system performance is
limited.
Front pedestrian protection can be
set to Off, Alert, or Alert & Brake in
vehicle personalisation 3 123.9 Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
