Vehicle equipment
All standard, country-specific and optional
equipment that is offered in the model series is
described in this chapter. Therefore, equip‐
ment is also described that is not available in a
vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional
equipment or country variant. This also applies
for safety-related functions and systems.
General information
The engine oil consumption is dependent on
the driving style and driving conditions. When
a sporty driving style is used, the engine oil
consumption, for example, is clearly higher.
Therefore, regularly check the engine oil level
after refueling.
The vehicle is equipped with electronic oil
measurement.
The electronic oil measurement has two meas‐
uring principles.
▷ Status display
▷ Detailed measurement

driving and shown on the Control Display.
If the oil level reaches the minimum level, a
check control message is displayed.

prox. 30 minutes of driving. During a shorter
trip, the status of the last, sufficiently long trip
is displayed.

pending on the oil level. Pay attention to these
messages.

Add oil immediately; otherwise, an insuf‐
ficient amount of engine oil could result in en‐
gine damage.◀

Too much engine oil
Have the vehicle checked immediately;
otherwise, surplus oil can lead to engine dam‐
age.◀
Detailed measurement
The concept
In the detailed measurement the oil level is
checked and displayed via a scale.
During the measurement, the idle speed is in‐
creased somewhat.
