battery.
● The blue bars show the electric energy generated from the
braking and deceleration phasesof the vehicle. This energy is
partially used to recharge the
battery.Fuel consumption
The orange bars show the average fuel consumption in litre per 100
miles.
eSave function
This function allows to provide
electrical energy of the high voltage
battery for a later use, e.g. for driving
in areas restricted to electrical
vehicles. It is possible to reserve the
complete electrical energy of the
battery or a part of it.
Notice
If the energy requested exceeds the
energy of the high voltage battery,
the combustion engine charges the battery. This results in a loss of
performance and a higher fuel
consumption.
The function can be activated in the
Colour Info Display.

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 3 138.
Pedals
To ensure the pedal travel is
uninhibited, there must be no mats in the area of the pedals.
Use 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.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 enginge 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.
