BLIND SPOT MONITORBlind spot information system(BLIS)

WARNINGSThe system is not designed toprevent contact with other vehiclesor objects. The system only provides

a warning to assist you in detectingvehicles in the blind spot zones. Thesystem will not detect obstacles,pedestrians, motorcyclists or cyclists.

Do not use the system as areplacement for using the side andrear view mirrors, and looking over

your shoulder before changing lanes. Thesystem is not a replacement for carefuldriving and is only to be used as an aid.

The system is a convenience feature thataids the driver in detecting vehicles thatmay have entered the blind spot zone (A).The detection area is on both sides of thevehicle extending rearwards from theexterior mirrors to approximately 3 metres(10 feet) beyond the bumper. The systemwill alert you if certain vehicles enter theblind spot zone whilst driving.

A

A

E124788

Using the systemThe system displays a yellow indicatorlocated in the exterior mirrors.

E124736

Note: Both indicators will illuminate brieflywhen you switch the ignition on to confirmthat the system is operational.

66

Windows and Mirrors

Note: On vehicles with automatictransmission, the system is active only in S,D and N.The system is only active when you exceed10 km/h (6 mph). The system istemporarily deactivated when you selectreverse gear.

System detection and alertsThe system will trigger the alert for vehiclesthat enter the blind spot zone from the rearor merge from the side. Vehicles that youpass, or vehicles that enter the blind spotzone from the front, will only trigger thealert after the vehicle has remained in theblind spot zone for a short period of time.Note: Vehicles that pass through the blindzone quickly (typically less than 2 seconds)will not trigger the alert.The system consists of two radar sensorseach located behind the rear wheelshidden behind the bumpers.

CAUTIONSDo not place items such as bumperstickers in this area.Repairs to these areas using body fillerwill affect the performance of thesystem.

E124741

Detection limitationsThere may be certain instances wherevehicles entering and exiting the blind spotzones may not be detected.Instances which may cause non-detection:• Debris build up on the rear bumper

panels in the area of the sensors.• Certain manoeuvring of vehicles

entering and exiting the blind zone.• Vehicles passing through the blind zone

at high speed.• Severe weather conditions.• Several vehicles passing through the

blind zone following each other closely.

False alertsNote: False alerts are temporary and willself correct.There may be certain instances when thesystem will alert with no vehicle present inthe blind zone.Circumstances where false alerts mayoccur:• Road guardrails.• Motorway concrete walls.• Construction areas.• Sharp turns around a building.• Bushes and trees.• Cyclists and motorcyclists.• Coming to a stop with a vehicle directly

behind but very close.

Turning the system on and offNote: The on or off position will remain untilmanually changed.You can turn the system on and off usingthe information display. See InformationDisplays (page 75).

67

Windows and Mirrors

When you turn the system off no furtheralerts will be received. The BLIS warningindicator will illuminate. See WarningLamps and Indicators (page 71).

Detection errorsNote: The alert indicator in the mirror willnot illuminate.If the system senses a fault on eithersensor, the system warning symbol willilluminate and remain on. The informationdisplay will confirm the fault and indicatewhether the left or right side is affected.

Blocked sensor

WARNINGPrior to the system recognizing ablocked condition and issuing awarning, the number of missed

objects will increase.

CAUTIONThe sensors may not detect vehiclesin heavy rain or other conditions thatcause disruptive reflections.

Note: Keep the rear bumper areasurrounding the sensors free from dirt, iceand snow.If a sensor becomes blocked the systemperformance may degrade. A blockedsensor message may be displayed.The system will automatically return tonormal operation once two other vehicleshave been detected on both sides.

Trailer towing false alerts

CAUTIONVehicles fitted with a trailer towmodule not approved by us may notcorrectly be detected. Switch the

system off to avoid false alerts. SeeInformation Displays (page 75).

If the vehicle is fitted with a trailer towmodule approved by us, the system willdetect a connected trailer and deactivate.A confirmation message will be shown inthe information display. See InformationMessages (page 83). The BLIS warningindicator will illuminate. See WarningLamps and Indicators (page 71).

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONOutside airKeep the air intakes forward of thewindscreen free from obstruction (snow,leaves etc.) to allow the climate controlsystem to function effectively.

Recirculated airCAUTION

Prolonged use of recirculated air maycause the windows to mist up. If thewindows mist up, follow the settings

for defrosting and demisting thewindscreen.

The air currently in the passengercompartment will be recirculated. Outsideair will not enter the vehicle.

HeatingHeating performance depends on thetemperature of the engine coolant.

Air conditioningNote: The air conditioning operates onlywhen the temperature is above 4°C (39°F).Note: If you use the air conditioning, thefuel consumption of your vehicle will behigher.Air is directed through the evaporatorwhere it is cooled. Humidity is extractedfrom the air to help keep the windows freeof mist. The resulting condensation isdirected to the outside of the vehicle andit is therefore normal if you see a smallpool of water under your vehicle.

General information on controllingthe interior climateFully close all the windows.

Warming the interiorDirect the air towards your feet. In cold orhumid weather conditions, direct some ofthe air towards the windscreen and thedoor windows.

AUXILIARY HEATERParking heater

WARNINGSThe parking heater must not beoperated at filling stations, nearsources of combustible vapours or

dust or in enclosed spaces.The parking heater should beswitched on for approximately 10minutes at least once a month all

year round. This prevents the water pumpand heater motor from seizing.

Note: The parking heater will only operateif there is at least 7.5 litres (1.6 gallons) offuel in the fuel tank and the ambienttemperature is below 15°C (59°F). Theheater will not operate if the battery is low.Note: The heating depends on the outsideair temperature.Note: When the parking heater is activated,exhaust fumes may come from under thesides of the vehicle. This is normal.Note: On vehicles with manual climatecontrol the heating of the vehicle interior isdependent on the temperature, airdistribution and blower control settings.The parking heater operates independentlyof the vehicle heater by heating theengine’s coolant circuit. It is fed from thevehicle fuel tank. You can also use it whilethe vehicle is in motion to help the vehicleheater warm up the interior more quickly.Used properly, the parking heater providesthe following benefits:

102

Climate Control

• It preheats the interior of the vehicle.• It keeps the windows clear of ice in the

event of frost and preventscondensation.

• It avoids cold starts and allows theengine to reach operating temperaturesooner.

To prevent the battery from discharging:• Once the parking heater has performed

one heating cycle, the nextprogrammed heating cycle will only becarried out if you have started thevehicle’s engine in between.

• After a heating cycle, drive the vehiclefor at least the period of the heatingcycle.

Programming the parking heaterNote: The programmed time is the time atwhich you wish the vehicle to be warm andready to drive, not the time at which theheater switches on.Note: You must programme the times atleast 70 minutes in advance of the time youwish to set.Note: You must set the time and datecorrectly. See Clock (page 111).To programme the heating times:1. Use the arrow buttons on the steering

Starting at low ambienttemperaturesWhen the temperature is lower than -10°C(14°F) and the vehicle is filled with E85, anengine block heater should be used tofacilitate starting. See Engine BlockHeater (page 119). Failure to do this willresult in a non start.If the temperature is expected to remainbelow -10°C (14°F), it is recommendedthat you increase the proportion of petrolin the tank by topping up with 95 octaneunleaded petrol if the tank is not alreadyfull. About 10 litres (2.2 gallons) of petrolwill reduce the proportion of E85 in a ¾ fulltank from 85% to 70% and willconsiderably improve cold start capability.If, at very low temperatures, the tank isfilled with only E85 and there is no way touse an engine block heater, you mayexperience difficulties starting the engine.If the engine fails to start, proceed asfollows:1. Fully depress the accelerator pedal.2. Turn the ignition key to position III.

CAUTIONRelease the ignition key as soon asthe engine has started.

3. Gradually release the accelerator pedalafter five seconds of engine crankingor as the engine speed rises.

If the engine fails to start, repeat steps 1, 2and 3, or connect an engine block heaterfor two hours before attempting anotherstart.During starting, the fuel injectors are turnedoff as long as the accelerator pedal isdepressed. This can be used to drainexcessive fuel from the intake manifoldafter several unsuccessful startingattempts.

If the battery has been disconnected orafter the fuel type has been changed, theidle speed may be irregular. This willimprove after 10 to 30 seconds.

STARTING A DIESEL ENGINECold or hot engineAll vehiclesNote: When the temperature is below -15°C(5°F), you may need to crank the engine forup to 25 seconds.Note: Continue cranking the engine until itstarts.Note: You can only operate the starter fora maximum of 30 seconds at a time.

Switch the ignition on and waituntil the glow plug indicator goesoff.

Vehicles with manual transmissionNote: Do not touch the accelerator pedal.1. Fully depress the clutch pedal.2. Start the engine.

Vehicles with automatic transmission1. Select park or neutral.2. Fully depress the brake pedal.3. Start the engine.

KEYLESS STARTING

WARNINGSThe keyless starting system may notfunction if the key is close to metalobjects or electronic devices such as

mobile phones.

Press and hold the start button for twoseconds, or press twice within twoseconds.

DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTERThe DPF forms part of the emissionsreduction systems fitted to your vehicle. Itfilters harmful diesel particulates (soot)from the exhaust gas.

RegenerationWARNING

Do not park or idle your vehicle overdry leaves, dry grass or othercombustible materials. The DPF

regeneration process creates very highexhaust gas temperatures and the exhaustwill radiate a considerable amount of heatduring and after DPF regeneration, andafter you have switched the engine off.This is a potential fire hazard.

CAUTIONAvoid running out of fuel.

Note: During regeneration at low speed orengine idle, you may smell a hot metallicodour and could notice a clicking metallicsound. This is due to the high temperaturesreached during regeneration and is normal.Note: After you have switched your engineoff the fans may continue to run for a shortperiod of time.Unlike a normal filter which requiresperiodic replacement, the DPF has beendesigned to regenerate, or clean itself tomaintain operating efficiency. Theregeneration process takes placeautomatically. However, some drivingconditions mean that you may need tosupport the regeneration process.

118


If you drive only short distances or yourjourneys contain frequent stopping andstarting, where there is increasedacceleration and deceleration, occasionaltrips with the following conditions willassist the regeneration process:• Drive your vehicle at a constant speed,

preferably on a main road or motorway,for up to 20 minutes.

• Avoid prolonged idling and alwaysobserve speed limits and roadconditions.

• Do not switch off the ignition.• Use a lower gear than normal to

maintain a higher engine speed duringthis journey, where appropriate.

SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINEVehicles with a turbocharger

CAUTIONDo not switch the engine off when itis running at high speed. If you do, theturbocharger will continue running

after the engine oil pressure has droppedto zero. This will lead to prematureturbocharger bearing wear.

Release the accelerator pedal. Wait untilthe engine has reached idle speed and thenswitch it off.

ENGINE BLOCK HEATER

CAUTIONMake sure you disconnect the powercable from the engine heaterconnector before driving away.

Note: The engine heater connector islocated in the front bumper.

E135813

Connect the engine heater for two to threehours before starting the engine.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION

CAUTIONFor vehicles with Start-stop thebattery requirement is different. Itmust be replaced by one of exactly

the same specification as the original.

The system reduces fuel consumption andCO2 emissions by shutting down theengine when the vehicle is idling, forexample at traffic lights. The engine willautomatically restart when the driverpresses the clutch pedal or when requiredby a vehicle system, for example torecharge the battery.To obtain maximum benefit from thesystem, move the gear lever to the neutralposition and release the clutch pedalduring any stop of longer than threeseconds.

USING START-STOP

WARNINGSThe engine may restartautomatically if required by thesystem. See Principle of Operation

(page 120).Switch the ignition off beforeopening the bonnet or carrying outany maintenance.Always switch the ignition off beforeleaving your vehicle, as the systemmay have shut down the engine but

the ignition will still be live.

Note: The system only operates when theengine is warm and the outside temperatureis between 0°C (32°F) and 30°C (86°F).

Note: If you stall the engine, and thendepress the clutch pedal within a couple ofseconds, the system will automaticallyrestart the engine.Note: The Start-stop indicator willilluminate green when the engine shutsdown. See Warning Lamps and Indicators(page 71).Note: The Start-stop indicator will flashamber, requiring you to select neutral ordepress the clutch pedal. In conjunction amessage will be shown in the display.Note: If the system detects a malfunction,it is deactivated. Have the system checkedby a properly trained technician.Note: If you have switched the system off,the switch will be illuminated.Note: The system is on by default. Toswitch the system off, press the switch inthe instrument panel. The system will onlybe de-activated for the current ignitioncycle. To turn it on, press the switch again.For item location. See At a Glance (page10).

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONNote: Depending on applicable laws andregulations in the country for which yourvehicle was originally built, the brake lampsmay flash if you brake heavily.Note: Occasional brake noise is normal andoften does not indicate a concern. In normaloperation, the system may emit occasionalor intermittent squeal or groan noises whenthe brakes are applied. Such noises areusually caused by environmental conditionssuch as cold, heat, moisture, road dust, saltor mud.

Disc brakesWet brake discs result in reduced brakingefficiency. Dab the brake pedal whendriving from a car wash to remove the filmof water.

ABSWARNING

The ABS does not relieve you of yourresponsibility to drive with due careand attention.

The ABS helps you to maintain full steeringand directional stability when you brakeheavily in an emergency, by preventing theroad wheels from locking.

HINTS ON DRIVING WITHANTI-LOCK BRAKESWhen the ABS is operating, the brake pedalwill pulse. This is normal. Maintain pressureon the brake pedal.The ABS will not eliminate the dangersinherent when:• you drive too close to the vehicle in

front of you.• the vehicle is aquaplaning.

• you take corners too fast.• the road surface is poor.

The ESP supports stability when thevehicle starts to slide away from yourintended path. This is performed by brakingindividual wheels and reducing enginetorque as needed.The system also provides an enhancedtraction control function by reducingengine torque and may brake individualwheels if they spin when you accelerate.This improves your ability to pull away onslippery roads or loose surfaces, andimproves comfort by limiting wheel spin inhairpin bends.

Stability control (ESP) warning lampThe ESP warning lamp will flash when thesystem is operating. See Warning Lampsand Indicators (page 71).

Emergency brake assistWARNING

Emergency brake assist does notrelieve you of your responsibility todrive with due care and attention.

Emergency brake assist will detect whenyou brake heavily by measuring the rate atwhich you press the brake pedal. It willprovide maximum braking efficiency aslong as you press the pedal. Emergencybrake assist can reduce stopping distancesin critical situations.

Trailer stability controlWARNING

Trailer stability control does notrelieve you of your responsibility totow with due care and attention.

Trailer stability control is an enhancedfeature of ESP, and automatically detectswhen an attached trailer starts to sway.If this situation occurs, the system willautomatically brake individual wheels tostabilise the trailer and vehicle. In case avery severe sway is detected, the enginetorque will be reduced and the vehicle willbe slowed automatically.

USING STABILITY CONTROLNote: The system will be switched onautomatically every time you switch theignition on.To turn the system off and on. SeeInformation Displays (page 75).

133

Stability Control

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATIONThe system makes it easier to pull awaywhen the vehicle is on a slope without theneed to use the parking brake.When the system is active, the vehicle willremain stationary on the slope for a shorttime after you release the brake pedal.During this time, you have time to moveyour foot from the brake to the acceleratorpedal and pull away. The brakes arereleased automatically once the enginehas developed sufficient drive to preventthe vehicle from rolling down the slope.This is an advantage when pulling awayon a slope, for example from a car parkramp, traffic lights or when reversing uphillinto a parking space.

WARNINGThe system does not replace theparking brake. When you leave thevehicle, always apply the parking

brake and select first or reverse gear.

USING HILL START ASSISTThe system is activated automaticallywhen you stop your vehicle on a slopegreater than 3%. The system operates withthe vehicle facing downhill if reverse gearis selected and with the vehicle facinguphill if any forward gear is selected.

Vehicles with manualtransmission onlyThe system can be switched on and offusing the information display. See GeneralInformation (page 75).

Activating the systemWARNINGS

You must remain in the vehicle onceyou have activated the system.

WARNINGSAt all times you are responsible forcontrolling the vehicle, supervisingthe system and intervening, if

required.If a malfunction is detected when thesystem is active, the system will bedeactivated and a message will be

shown in the display. See InformationMessages (page 83).

Cruise Control


WARNINGSThe system is not a collision warningor avoidance system. The separateforward alert function provides a

collision warning and mitigation feature.See Forward alert function (page 152).You must intervene if the system does notdetect a vehicle in front.

When driving you are responsible formaintaining the correct distance andspeed, even when adaptive cruise

control is used. You must always payattention to the traffic conditions andintervene when adaptive cruise control isnot maintaining a suitable speed orsuitable distance.

The system does not relieve you ofyour responsibility to drive with duecare and attention.The system does not brake for slowor stationary vehicles, pedestrians,objects in the road, oncoming and

crossing vehicles.

CAUTIONSOnly use adaptive cruise control whenconditions are favourable, for exampleon motorways and main roads with

steady free flowing traffic.Do not use in poor visibility,specifically fog, heavy rain, spray orsnow.Do not use on icy or slippery roads.

Do not use the system when enteringor leaving a motorway.The radar sensor has a limited field ofvision. In some situations it maydetect a vehicle other than the one

expected or not detect any vehicle at all.

Note: When adaptive cruise control isactivated, you may hear some unusualsounds during automatic braking. This isnormal and caused by the automaticbraking system.Note: Keep the front of the vehicle freefrom dirt, metal badges or objects, includingvehicle front protectors and additional lightswhich may prevent the sensor fromoperating.The system is designed to help youmaintain a gap from the vehicle ahead ora set road speed if there is no slowervehicle ahead. The system is intended toprovide enhanced operation of the vehiclewhen following other vehicles which are inthe same lane and travelling in the samedirection.The system is based on the use of a radarsensor which projects a beam directlyforward of the vehicle. This beam willdetect any vehicle ahead within thesystem's range.The radar sensor is mounted behind thefront grille.

148

Adaptive cruise control (ACC)

Detection beam issues

E71621

Detection issues can occur:• With vehicles that edge into your lane

that can only be detected once theyhave moved fully into your lane (A).Motorcycles may be detected late, ornot at all. (B)

• With vehicles in front when going intoand coming out of a bend (C). Thedetection beam will not follow sharpcurves in the road.

In these cases the system may brake lateor unexpectedly. You should stay alert andintervene if necessary.

Automatic braking with ACCWARNINGS

You must take immediate actiononce alerted, as the adaptive cruisecontrol braking will not be sufficient

to keep a safe distance to the vehicle infront.

In some cases there may be nowarning or the warning may bedelayed. You should always apply

the brakes when necessary.When following a vehicle in front ofyou, adaptive cruise control will notautomatically decelerate to a stop.

The system will automatically brake foryou, if required to maintain the set gapbetween your vehicle and the one detectedin front. This braking capacity is limited toapproximately 30% of the total manualbraking capacity to ensure smooth andcomfortable cruising. If the car needs tobrake more heavily than this, and you donot intervene by braking manually, analarm will sound and a warning symbol willbe displayed in the cluster.

Setting a speedNote: The system must be in standbymode.Press switch A or switch B to select yourdesired cruise speed. The speed isdisplayed in the information display andstored as the set speed.

Changing the set speedNote: Vehicle speed may be increased anddecreased at intervals of 5 km/h or 5 mph.Note: If the system does not react to thesechanges the reason may be that the gapinterval to the vehicle in front prevents anincrease in speed.Press switch A to increase or switch B todecrease the set speed until the desiredset speed is shown in the informationdisplay. The vehicle speed will graduallychange to the selected speed.

Setting the vehicle gapCAUTION

Use the appropriate gap setting inaccordance with local trafficregulations.

Note: The gap setting is time dependentand therefore the distance willautomatically adjust with your speed. Forexample on a gap setting of four bars, thetime gap is 1.8 seconds. This will mean thatat a speed of 100 km/h (62 mph), thedistance to the vehicle in front will bemaintained at 50 metres (164 feet).Note: If the accelerator is depressed for ashort period, for example when overtaking,the system is temporarily deactivated andthen reactivated when the accelerator pedalis released. A message is displayed in theinformation display.Note: The gap setting will remainunchanged during ignition cycles.

The distance between you and the vehicledetected in front is maintained by avariable setting. There are five steps whichare represented by horizontal barsdisplayed in the information display. Onebar indicates the smallest gap and fivebars indicates the largest gap. These barsare shown empty when in standby modeand filled when in active mode.If no vehicle is detected in front, then onlyyour vehicle is displayed in the informationdisplay below the bars. The system willmaintain the set speed when conditionspermit. The set gap is maintained anddisplayed.If a vehicle is detected by the sensor, thedisplay will show another vehicle abovethe horizontal bars:

E82312

This is a follow mode, and the system willaccelerate or decelerate as necessary tomaintain the set gap.Pull switch E to decrease the gap or switchD to increase the gap. The gap selectedwill be represented by the number of barsin the display.Note: The recommended gap setting is fouror five bars.

Temporarily deactivating thesystemNote: The system is cancelled when thegear lever is moved to a neutral position orif the accelerator pedal or clutch isdepressed for a long period of time.

Press the brake pedal or pull switch F tocancel the system. The system will returnto standby mode allowing you full manualcontrol of the vehicle. The set speed andgap setting are retained in the memory.Pull switch F again to resume. The systemwill resume with the previously set speedand vehicle gap setting if conditions permit.

Switching the system offPress switch C to turn the system off.Note: When deactivating the system bypressing switch C, the stored speed is notretained.

Automatic deactivationNote: If the engine speed drops too low, amessage is displayed in the informationdisplay instructing you to change down agear (manual transmission only). If you donot follow this recommendation then thesystem will go into automatic deactivationmode.Note: The system will not operate iftraction control has been switched off.The system is dependent on various othersafety systems, for example ABS and ESP.If any of these systems are malfunctioningor reacting to an emergency, the system isautomatically deactivated.In the event of automatic deactivation asignal will sound and the message isdisplayed in the information display. SeeInformation Messages (page 83). Youmust then intervene and adapt your drivingand speed to vehicles in front.An automatic deactivation can be due tothe:• vehicle speed falling below 30 km/h

(20 mph)• wheels losing traction

151


• brake temperature being too high, forexample when driving on mountainousor hilly roads

• engine speed being too low• radar sensor being covered• parking brake being applied.

FORWARD ALERT FUNCTION

WARNINGSNever wait for a collision warning.When driving you are responsible formaintaining the correct distance and

speed, even when the system is used.The system will only react to vehiclesin front travelling in the samedirection and will not react to slow

or stationary vehicles.Never drive in a manner to provokethe system. The system is designedto assist in emergencies only.

CAUTIONSWarnings may be triggered late, beabsent or triggered unnecessarily dueto detection beam issues. See

Principle of Operation (page 148).The system uses the same radarsensors as adaptive cruise control andtherefore has the same limitations.

See Principle of Operation (page 148).

Note: The brake support system onlyreduces the collision speed if you brakeimmediately once alerted.Note: If the brake pedal is depressedsufficiently quickly then braking isimplemented with full brake function, evenif the force on the pedal is light.Note: Brake support prepares the brakesystem for rapid braking and the brakes areapplied gently, which may be noticed as aslight jerk.

Note: The collision alerts will only occur ifthe system is switched on, however thebrake support is always on and cannot beturned off.Note: The system may be used with orwithout the Adaptive cruise control systembeing activated.The system assists you by warning of therisk of a collision with a vehicle in front.The system alerts you by warning chimesand a visual warning in the informationdisplay. See Information Messages(page 83).Brake support is activated to enable fullbraking effectiveness, and reduce theseverity of a collision with the vehicle infront.

Switching the system on and offNote: When the system is switched off, awarning indicator will remain illuminated inthe information display. See WarningLamps and Indicators (page 71).Note: The system status and settings willremain unchanged during ignition cycles.The system can be switched on and offusing the information display. See GeneralInformation (page 75).

Adjusting the warning sensitivityYou may adjust the system warningsensitivity using the buttons on the steeringwheel. See General Information (page75). This controls how early the visual andaudible warning is activated.

TYRE REPAIR KITYour vehicle may not have a spare tyre. Inthis case it will have an emergency tyrerepair kit that can be used to repair oneflat tyre.The tyre repair kit is located in the sparewheel well.

General informationWARNINGS

Depending on the type and extent oftyre damage, some tyres can only bepartially sealed or not sealed at all.

Loss of tyre pressure can affect vehiclehandling, leading to loss of vehicle control.

Do not use the tyre repair kit if thetyre has already been damaged as aresult of being driven under inflated.Do not use the tyre repair kit on runflat tyres.Do not try to seal damage other thanthat located within the visible treadof the tyre.Do not try to seal damage to thetyre’s sidewall.

The tyre repair kit seals most tyrepunctures [with a diameter of up to sixmillimetres (1/4 inch)] to temporarilyrestore mobility.Observe the following rules when using thekit:

• Drive with caution and avoidmaking sudden steering or drivingmanoeuvres, especially if the vehicleis heavily loaded or you are towing atrailer.

• The kit will provide you with anemergency temporary repair, enablingyou to continue your journey to the nextvehicle or tyre dealer, or to drive amaximum distance of 200 kilometres(125 miles).

• Do not exceed a maximum speed of80 km/h (50 mph).

• Keep the kit out of the reach ofchildren.

• Only use the kit when the ambienttemperature is between –30°C (-22°F)and +70°C (+158°F).

Using the tyre repair kitWARNINGS

Compressed air can act as anexplosive or propellant.Never leave the tyre repair kitunattended while in use.

CAUTIONDo not keep the compressor operatingfor more than 10 minutes.

Note: Use the tyre repair kit only for thevehicle with which it was supplied.• Park your vehicle at the roadside so

that you do not obstruct the flow oftraffic and so that you are able to usethe kit without being in danger.

• Apply the parking brake, even if youhave parked on a level road, to makesure that the vehicle will not move.

• Do not attempt to remove foreignobjects like nails or screws penetratingthe tyre.

213

Wheels and Tyres

• Leave the engine running while the kitis in use, but not if the vehicle is in anenclosed or poorly ventilated area (forexample, inside a building). In thesecircumstances, switch the compressoron with the engine turned off.

• Replace the sealant bottle with a newone before the expiry date (see top ofbottle) is reached.

• Inform all other users of the vehiclethat the tyre has been temporarilysealed with the tyre repair kit and makethem aware of the special drivingconditions to be observed.

Inflating the tyreWARNINGS

Check the sidewall of the tyre priorto inflation. If there are any cracks,bumps or similar damage, do not

attempt to inflate the tyre.Do not stand directly beside the tyrewhile the compressor is pumping.Watch the sidewall of the tyre. If anycracks, bumps or similar damageappear, turn off the compressor and

let the air out by means of the pressurerelief valve B. Do not continue driving withthis tyre.

The sealant contains natural rubberlatex. Avoid contact with skin andclothing. If this happens, rinse the

affected areas immediately with plenty ofwater and contact your doctor.

If the tyre inflation pressure does notreach 1.8 bar (26 psi) within sevenminutes, the tyre may have suffered

excessive damage, making a temporaryrepair impossible. In this case, do notcontinue driving with this tyre.

CAUTIONScrewing the bottle onto the bottleholder will pierce the seal of thebottle. Do not unscrew the bottle from

the holder as the sealant will escape.

16. Make sure the kit, the bottle lid andthe orange cap are stored safely, butstill easily accessible in the vehicle.The kit will be required again whenyou check the tyre pressure.

17. Immediately drive approximatelythree kilometres (two miles) so thatthe sealant can seal the damagedarea.

Note: When pumping in the sealant throughthe tyre valve, the pressure may rise up to6 bar (87 psi) but will drop again after about30 seconds.

WARNINGIf you experience heavy vibrations,unsteady steering behaviour ornoises while driving, reduce your

speed and drive with caution to a placewhere it is safe for you to stop the vehicle.Recheck the tyre and its pressure. If thetyre pressure is less than 1.3 bar (19 psi) orif there are any cracks, bumps or similardamage visible, do not continue drivingwith this tyre.

Checking the tyre pressure1. Stop the vehicle after driving

approximately three kilometres(two miles). Check, and wherenecessary, adjust the pressure of thedamaged tyre.

2. Attach the kit and read the tyrepressure from the pressure gauge F.

215

Wheels and Tyres

3. If the pressure of the sealant-filled tyreis 1.3 bar (19 psi) or more, adjust it tothe specified pressure. See TechnicalSpecifications (page 218).

4. Follow the inflation procedure onceagain to top up the tyre.

5. Check the tyre pressure again from thepressure gauge F. If the tyre pressureis too high, deflate the tyre to thespecified pressure using the pressurerelief valve B.

6. Once you have inflated the tyre to itscorrect tyre pressure, move thecompressor switch H to position 0,remove the power plug G from thesocket, unscrew the hose C, fasten thevalve cap and replace the protectivecap A.

7. Leave the sealant bottle K in the bottleholder E and store the kit away safelyin its original location.

8. Drive to the nearest tyre specialist toget the damaged tyre replaced. Beforethe tyre is removed from the rim, informyour tyre dealer that the tyre containssealant. Renew the kit as soon aspossible after it has been used once.

Note: Remember that emergency roadsidetyre repair kits only provide temporarymobility. Regulations concerning tyre repairafter usage of tyre repair kit may differ fromcountry to country. You should consult atyre specialist for advice.

WARNINGBefore driving, make sure the tyre isadjusted to the recommendedinflation pressure. See Technical

Specifications (page 218). Monitor thetyre pressure until the sealed tyre isreplaced.

Empty sealant bottles can be disposed oftogether with normal household waste.Return remains of sealant to your dealeror dispose of it in compliance with localwaste disposal regulations.

TYRE CARE

E70415

To make sure the front and rear tyres ofyour vehicle wear evenly and last longer,we recommend that you swap the tyresfrom front to rear and vice versa at regularintervals of between 5000 and 10000kilometres (3000 and 6000 miles).

CAUTIONDo not scrub the sidewalls of the tyreswhen you are parking.

If you have to mount a kerb, do so slowlyand approach it with the wheels atright-angles to the kerb.Examine the tyres regularly for cuts, foreignobjects and uneven wear of the tread.Uneven wear could mean that the wheelalignment is outside specification.Check the tyre pressures (including thespare) when cold, every two weeks.

216

Wheels and Tyres

USING WINTER TYRES

CAUTIONMake sure that you use the correctwheel nuts for the type of wheel thewinter tyres are fitted to.

If winter tyres are used, make sure that thetyre pressures are correct. See TechnicalSpecifications (page 218).

USING SNOW CHAINS

WARNINGSDo not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph).

Do not use snow chains on snow-freeroads.Only fit snow chains to specifiedtyres. See TechnicalSpecifications (page 218).

CAUTIONIf your vehicle is fitted with wheeltrims, remove them before fittingsnow chains.

Note: The ABS will continue to operatenormally.Only use small link snow chains.Only use snow chains on the front wheels.

Vehicles with stability control(ESP)Vehicles with stability control (ESP) mayexhibit some unusual drivingcharacteristics which can be reduced byswitching traction control off. See UsingStability Control (page 133).

TYRE PRESSUREMONITORING SYSTEM

WARNINGSThe system does not relieve you ofyour responsibility to regularly checkthe tyre pressures.The system will only provide a lowtyre pressure warning. It will notinflate the tyres.Do not drive on significantlyunder-inflated tyres. This may causethe tyres to overheat and fail.

Under-inflation reduces fuel efficiency, tyretread life and may also affect your abilityto drive the vehicle safely.

CAUTIONSDo not bend or damage the valveswhen you are inflating the tyres.Have tyres installed by properlytrained technicians.

The Deflation Detection System will alertyou if there is a change of air pressure inany tyre. It does this by using the ABSsensors to detect the rolling circumferenceof the wheels. When the circumferencechanges, this indicates low pressure in atyre, a warning message is displayed in theinformation display and the messageindicator will illuminate. See InformationMessages (page 83).If a low pressure warning message isdisplayed in the information display, checkthe tyre pressures as soon as possible andinflate them to the recommendedpressure. See Technical Specifications(page 218).If this happens frequently, have the causedetermined and rectified as soon aspossible.

217

Wheels and Tyres

Apart from a too low tyre pressure or adamaged tyre, the following situations canaffect the rolling circumference:• Vehicle load is uneven.• When using a trailer or travelling up and

down an incline.• Using snow chains.• Driving on soft surfaces such as snow

or mud.Note: The system will still functioncorrectly, but there may be an increaseddetection time.

System resetNote: Do not reset the system when thevehicle is moving.Note: You should reset the systemfollowing any adjustment to the tyrepressures or any changing of tyres.Note: Turn the ignition on.
