e equipped with belt tensioners.
The belt tensioners are activated by sensors,
although only in severe head-on, lateral and
rear-end collisions. This retracts and tightens
the seat belts, reducing the forward motion of
the occupants.
The belt pre-tensioners work in combination
with the airbag system. In case of overturn,
the pre-tensioners do not activate unless the
head airbags are deployed. Note

Operation
Depending on the equipment, the vehicle
may hav e the K
eyless Access system.
Keyless Access is a key-free locking and igni-
tion system to unlock and lock the vehicle
without actively using its key. To do this, all
that is required is to have a valid vehicle key in
the detection area where you are attempting
to access the vehicle ››› Fig. 87
and to touch
one of the sensor surfaces on the door han-
dles ››› Fig. 88
››› .
The v ehicl
e can only be unlocked and locked
via the driver's door. When doing so, the re-
mote control key must be no further than ap-
prox. 1.5 m away from the door handle.
It does not matter where you carry the key,
e.g. in your jacket pocket.
Once the doors have been locked, they can-
not be opened again immediately. This will
enable you to check that the doors are prop-
erly closed.
If you wish you may unlock only the corre-
sponding door or the entire vehicle. The nec-
essary adjustments can be made in vehicles
with a driver information system
››› page 90
››› page 73.
General information
If a valid key is in the proximity of the car
››› Fig. 87, the Keyless Access locking and
starting system gives the key entry as soon as one of the sensor surfaces on the front door
handles is t
ouched.
The following features are then available
without having to use the vehicle key actively:
Operation
Sun blind
The sun blind is opened and cl osed manually
(independently of the sliding sunr
oof).
Convenience function to open or
close the sunr
oof*Fig. 97
Door handle: sensor surface. The sunroof can be opened and closed with

Introduction
Technical data Radio with integrated hardware (8.25 ")
1)
The f act
ory-mounted radio in the vehicle with
integrated hardware includes country-specif-
ic components and software for connectivity
and for the execution of vehicle, comfort and
infotainment functions.
The corresponding indications are shown on
the radio screen and partly on the instrument
panel.
v Capacitive colour screen:
v 8.25 inch version, TFT, WVGA: 1082 x 480
pixels.
v Touch operation via the device screen, ro-
tary push-button, menu button and buttons
on the multifunction steering wheel.
Central computer with control and display
unit (10") 2)
The factory-mounted central computer in the
vehicle includes country-specific compo-
nents and software for connectivity and for
the execution of vehicle, comfort and infotain-
ment functions. The corresponding indications are shown on
the contr
ol and displ
ay unit screen and partly
on the instrument panel.
v Capacitive colour screen:
v Using the equipment with:
v Touch zones Touch operation.
v Buttons on the multifunction steering
wheel.
v Approach sensors (driver and passenger
side recognition, gesture control).

v Driver assistance system settings.
v Heating and air conditioning settings.
v Lights and visibility function settings.
v Vehicle comfort settings.
v Parking and manoeuvring settings.
Sound system Basic equipment:
The inf
ot
ainment system that is supplied from
the factory is equipped as follows:
v Speakers in different locations and with dif-
ferent power levels (watts).
v Internal amplifier depending on the system: v
4 speakers: 2 x 20 W
v 6 speak
ers: 5 x 20 W
v Setting options:

v 4 speakers: treble, mid and bass.
v 6 speakers: 5 frequency bands or pre-
defined settings.
v Sound distribution, depending on the sys-
tem:
v4 speakers: Balance (left / right)
v 6 speakers: Balance + Fader (left /
right / front / rear).
v Sound optimisation by zones (valid for the
6-speaker system):
vManual (Driver and All)
v Automatic depending on the seats oc-
cupied.
Optional sound system
The infotainment system can be extended
with an optional sound system as follows: v 7 speakers in different locations and with
different power levels (watts).
v 300W external amplifier (Ethernet or CAN,
depending on the infotainment system),
which processes the audio signals sent by
the central computer. »1)

Infotainment system
Navigation* Intr oduction Fig. 132
Schematic representation: Navigation
vie w A global satellite system determines the cur-
r
ent position of the v
ehicle and the sensors
mounted on the vehicle analyse the routes
taken. All measured values and possible traf-
fic events are compared with the available
maps to allow optimal navigation to the des-
tination.
Navigation announcements and graphic rep-
resentations will guide you to your destina-
tion.
Navigation management is carried out on the
screen.
Depending on the country, some functions of
the infotainment system will not be available on the screen when travelling above a certain
speed. It is not a malfunction, but is due to
compliance with l
egislation.
Navigation announcements
Navigation announcements are acoustic indi-
cations for driving referred to the current
route.
The type and frequency of navigation an-
nouncements depend on the driving situation,
for example, starting the guide to the destina-
tion, driving on the motorway or on a round-
about and the settings. If the exact destination cannot be reached
because, f
or example, it is in a non-digitised
area, indications relating to the address and
the distance to the destination are displayed
on the screen.
During dynamic route guidance, you will re-
ceive information about reported traffic con-
gestion on the route. An additional navigation
announcement is provided if the route is re-
calculated due to traffic congestion.
While a navigation announcement is playing,
its volume can be adjusted. The following
navigation announcements provided will be
played with the newly adjusted volume.

Infotainment operation
Limitations during navigation
If the inf ot
ainment system cannot receive da-
ta from GPS satellites, for example, in a tunnel
or in an underground garage, navigation con-
tinues using the vehicle's sensors.
In areas that are not digitised or are only par-
tially digitised on the infotainment memory,
the infotainment system will still attempt to
provide route guidance.
In the case of missing or incomplete naviga-
tion data, it may not be possible to determine
the exact position of the vehicle. This may
mean that navigation is not as precise as usu-
al.
Roads and streets are subject to constant
change (e.g. new roads, road works, roads
closed to traffic, changes to street names
and building numbers). If the navigation data
is obsolete, this may lead to errors or inaccur-
acies during the route guidance.
Managing the navigation map
To allow an optimal view, you can also man-
age the navigation map with additional finger
movements.
Move the map (tip: use your index finger).
