must only be used subject to the
instructions and restrictions in the
table 3 43.
The airbag label is located on both
sides of the front passenger sun visor.
Airbag deactivation 3 38.
Seats, restraints 37
Front airbag system
The front airbag system consists of
one airbag in the steering wheel and
one in the instrument panel on the
front passenger side. These can be
identified by the word AIRBAG.
The front airbag system is triggered in
the event of a front-end impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and head of
the front seat occupants
considerably.
9Warning
Optimum protection is only
provided when the seat is in the
proper position.
Seat position 3 27.
Fasten the seat belt correctly and
engage securely. Only then is the
airbag able to protect.
Side airbag system
The side airbag system consists of an
airbag in each front seat backrest.
This can be identified by the word
AIRBAG.
The side airbag system is triggered in
the event of a side impact of a certain
severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the upper body and pelvis in
the event of a side-on collision
considerably.
Notice
Only use protective seat covers that
have been approved for the vehicle.
Be careful not to cover the airbags.
38 Seats, restraints
Curtain airbag system
The curtain airbag system consists of
an airbag in the roof frame on each
side. This can be identified by the
word AIRBAG on the roof pillars.
The curtain airbag system is triggered
in the event of a side-on impact of a
certain severity. The ignition must be
switched on.
The inflated airbags cushion the
impact, thereby reducing the risk of
injury to the head in the event of a
side-on impact considerably.
9Warning
The hooks on the handles in the
roof frame are only suitable for
hanging up light articles of
clothing, without coat hangers. Do
not keep any items in these
clothes.
Airbag deactivation
The front passenger airbag system
must be deactivated for child restraint
system on the passenger seat
according to the instructions in the
table 3 43.
The side airbag and curtain airbag
systems, the belt pretensioners and
all driver airbag systems will remain
active.
The front passenger airbag system
can be deactivated via a key-
operated switch in the glovebox.
Use the ignition key to choose the
position:
OFF*: front passenger airbag is
deactivated and will not
inflate in the event of a
collision, control indicator
OFF* illuminates
continuously in the centre
console.
ONÓ: front passenger airbag is
active.
Seats, restraints 39
Notice
After turning the key-operated
switch to position OFF *, keep on
turning towards this position until
key is removed.
9Danger
Deactivate passenger airbag only
in combination with the use of a
child restraint system, subject to
the instructions and restrictions in
the table 3 43.
Otherwise, there is a risk of fatal
injury for a person occupying a
seat with a deactivated front
passenger airbag.
If the control indicator Ó illuminates
for approx. 60 seconds after the
ignition is switched on, the front
passenger airbag system will inflate
in the event of a collision.
If the control indicator * illuminates
after the ignition is switched on, the
front passenger airbag system is
deactivated. It stays on while the
airbag is deactivated.
If both control indicators are
illuminated at the same time, there is
a system failure. The status of the
system is not discernible, therefore
no person is allowed to occupy the
front passenger seat. Contact a
workshop immediately.
Consult a workshop immediately if
neither of the two control indicators
are illuminated.
Change status only when the vehicle
is stopped with the ignition off.
Status remains until the next change.

certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the tables 3 43.
Airbag deactivation 3 38.
Airbag label 3 33.
40 Seats, restraints
We recommend a child restraint
system which is tailored specifically to
the vehicle. For further information,
contact your workshop.
In case of any interference of the child
restraint system with vehicle seat
head restraint, adjust or remove the
corresponding head restraint 3 26.
When a child restraint system is being
used, pay attention to the following
usage and installation instructions
and also those supplied with the child
restraint system. The given
restrictions in the table refer to a test
body, which is the maximum
envelope of all existing child restraint
systems. Make sure that the front
seats do not interfere with the used
child restraint system.
Always comply with local or national
regulations. In some countries, the
use of child restraint systems is
forbidden on certain seats.
Only drive with the driver seat
correctly adjusted 3 27.
Child restraint systems can be
fastened with:
Three-point seat belt
ISOFIX brackets
Top-tether
Three-point seat belt
Child restraint systems can be
fastened by using a three-point seat
belt. After fastening the child restraint
system the seat belt has to be
tightened.
ISOFIX brackets
Fasten vehicle-approved ISOFIX
child restraint systems to the ISOFIX
brackets. Specific vehicle ISOFIX
child restraint system positions are
marked in the ISOFIX table 3 43.
ISOFIX brackets are indicated by a
label on the backrest. To get access
to the ISOFIX brackets, first pull the
zipper.
When fastening ISOFIX child restraint
systems on adjustable passenger
seats, such as the front passenger
seat, first incline the backrest as far as
necessary backwards in order to get
access to the ISOFIX brackets. After
the proper fastening of the ISOFIX
child restraint system, incline the
backrest forward again.
An i-Size child restraint system is an
universal ISOFIX child restraint
system according UN Regulation No.
129.
All i-Size child restraint systems can
be used on any vehicle seat suitable
for i-Size, i-Size table 3 43.
Either a Top-tether strap or a support
leg must be used in addition to the
ISOFIX brackets.
Seats, restraints 41
i-Size child seats and vehicle seats
with i-Size approval are marked with
i-Size symbol, see illustration.
Top-tether anchors
Top-tether anchors are marked with
the symbol t for a child seat.
In addition to the ISOFIX brackets,
fasten the Top-tether strap to the
Top-tether anchors.
ISOFIX child restraint systems of
universal category positions are
marked in the table by IUF 3 43.
Selecting the right system
The rear seats are the most
convenient location to fasten a child
restraint system.
Children should travel facing
rearwards in the vehicle as long as
possible. This makes sure that the
child's backbone, which is still very
weak, is under less strain in the event
of an accident. Do not use forward
facing child restraint system at all
seats when child's weight is below 13
kg.
Suitable are child restraint systems
that comply with valid UN ECE
regulations. Check local laws and
regulations for mandatory use of child
restraint systems.
The following child restraints are
recommended for the following
weight classes:
Group 0, Group 0+:
Maxi Cosi Cabriofix with or
without ISOFIX base for children
up to 13 kg
Group I: Duo Plus with ISOFIX
and Top-tether for children from
9 kg to 18 kg
Group II, Group III: Kidfix XP with
or without ISOFIX for children
from 15 kg to 36 kg
Ensure that the child restraint system
to be installed is compatible with the
vehicle type.
Child seat at the front: Adjust the front
passenger seat to the highest and
fully back longitudinal position with
the backrest straightened.
Child seat at the rear: Move the
vehicle's front seat forward and
straighten the backrest so that the
legs of the child in the forward facing
or the rearward facing child seat do
not touch the vehicle's front seat.
42 Seats, restraints
Do not use forward facing child
restraints system when child's weight
is below 13 kg at all seats.
Follow child restraint system
manufacturer's instructions to install
corresponding child restraint systems
in vehicle.
For semi-universal or vehicle specific
child restraint system (ISOFIX or
belted child restraint system), see the
vehicle list provided in the user
manual of the child restraint system.
Ensure that the mounting location of
the child restraint system within the
vehicle is correct, see following table.
Allow children to enter and exit the
vehicle only on the side facing away
from the traffic.
When the child restraint system is not
in use, secure the seat with a seat belt
or remove it from the vehicle.
Notice
Do not affix anything on the child
restraint systems and do not cover
them with any other materials.
A child restraint system which has
been subjected to stress in an
accident must be replaced.

recommended. For further
information, contact your workshop.
Open all doors.
Mounting points are located in each

50 Storage
Loading information
9Warning
Always make sure that the load in
the vehicle is securely stowed.
Otherwise objects can be thrown
around inside the vehicle and
cause personal injury or damage
to the load or car.
Heavy objects in the load
compartment should be placed
against the seat backrests. Make
sure that the backrests are
securely engaged. If objects can
be stacked, heavier objects
should be placed at the bottom.
Prevent sliding of loose objects
by securing them with straps
attached to the lashing eyes
3 49.
Do not allow the load to protrude
above the upper edge of the
backrests.
Do not place any objects on the
load compartment cover or the
instrument panel, and do not
cover the sensor on top of the
instrument panel.
The load must not obstruct the
operation of the pedals, parking
brake and gear selector, or
hinder the freedom of movement
of the driver. Do not place any
unsecured objects in the interior.
Do not drive with an open load
compartment.
The payload is the difference
between the permitted gross
vehicle weight (see identification
plate 3 233) and the EC kerb
weight.
To calculate the payload, enter
the data for your vehicle in the
weights table at the front of this
manual.
The EC kerb weight includes
weights for the driver (68 kg),
luggage (7 kg) and all fluids (fuel
tank 90% full).
Optional equipment and
accessories increase the kerb
weight.
Driving with a roof load increases
the sensitivity of the vehicle to
cross-winds and has a
detrimental effect on vehicle
handling due to the vehicle's
higher centre of gravity.
Distribute the load evenly and
secure it properly with retaining
straps. Adjust the tyre pressure
and vehicle speed according to
the load conditions. Check and
retighten the straps frequently.
Do not drive faster than 75 mph.
The permissible roof load is
70 kg. Do not exceed a loading
height of 40 cm. The roof load is
the combined weight of the roof
rack and the load.

Engine exhaust
9Danger
Engine exhaust gases contain
poisonous carbon monoxide,
which is colourless and odourless
and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust gases enter the interior
of the vehicle, open the windows.
Have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop.
Avoid driving with an open load
compartment, otherwise exhaust
gases could enter the vehicle.
Exhaust filter
Automatic cleaning process
The exhaust filter system filters soot
particles out of the exhaust gases.
The start of saturation of the exhaust
filter is indicated by the temporary
illumination of t or C,
accompanied by a message in the
Driver Information Centre.
Driving and operating 111
As soon as the traffic conditions
permit, regenerate the filter by driving
at a vehicle speed of at least 40 mph
until the control indicator
extinguishes.
Notice
On a new vehicle, the first exhaust
filter regeneration operations may
be accompanied by a burning smell,
which is normal. Following
prolonged operation of the vehicle at
very low speed or at idle, water
vapour can be emitted at the
exhaust on acceleration. This does
not affect the behaviour of the
vehicle or the environment.
Cleaning process not possible
If t or C stays on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message,
this indicates that the exhaust filter
additive level is too low.
The reservoir must be topped-up
without delay. Seek the assistance of
a workshop.
Catalytic converter
The catalytic converter reduces the
amount of harmful substances in the
exhaust gases.
Caution
Fuel grades other than those listed
on pages 3 180, 3 236 could
damage the catalytic converter or
electronic components.
Unburnt petrol will overheat and
damage the catalytic converter.
Therefore avoid excessive use of
the starter, running the fuel tank
dry and starting the engine by
pushing or towing.
In the event of misfiring, uneven
engine running, a reduction in engine
performance or other unusual
problems, have the cause of the fault
rectified by a workshop as soon as
possible. In an emergency, driving
can be continued for a short period,
keeping vehicle speed and engine
speed low.
AdBlue
General information
The selective catalytic reduction
(BlueInjection) is a method to
substantially reduce the nitrogen
oxides in the exhaust emission. This
is achieved by injecting a Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF) into the exhaust
system. The ammonia released by
the fluid reacts with nitrous gases
(NOx) from the exhaust and turns it
into nitrogen and water.
The designation of this fluid is
AdBlue®. It is a non-toxic, non-
flammable, colourless and odourless
fluid which consists of 32% urea and
68% water.
9Warning
Avoid contact of your eyes or skin
with AdBlue.
In case of eye or skin contact,
rinse off with water.
112 Driving and operating
Caution
Avoid contact of the paintwork with
AdBlue.
In case of contact, rinse off with
water.
AdBlue freezes at a temperature of
approx. -11 °C. As the vehicle is
equipped with an AdBlue pre-heater,
the emissions reduction at low
temperatures is ensured. The AdBlue
pre-heater works automatically.
In some circumstances below the
mentioned temperature, an error
message appears in the Driver
Information Centre. In this event, park
the vehicle in a space with a higher
ambient temperature until AdBlue is
liquefied.
Notice
Frozen and again liquefied AdBlue is
usable without quality loss.
The typical AdBlue consumption is
approx. 2 l per 600 miles, but can also
be higher depending on driving
behaviour (e.g. high load or towing).
Level warnings
Depending on the calculated range of
AdBlue, different messages are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. The messages and the
restrictions are a legal requirement.
1. The first warning level is entered
when the estimated AdBlue range
is between 1500 miles and
500 miles.
When switching on the ignition,
this warning will show up once
briefly with the calculated range.
Additionally, control indicator u
will illuminate and a chime will
sound. Driving is possible without
any restrictions.
2. The next warning level is entered
when the estimated AdBlue range
is below 500 miles. The message
with the current range will always
be displayed when ignition is
switched on. Additionally, control
indicator u will flash and a chime
will sound. Refill AdBlue before
entering the next warning level.
3. The next warning level is entered
with a range below 60 miles. The
message with the current range
will always be displayed when
ignition is switched on.
Additionally, control indicator u
will flash and a chime will sound.
Refill AdBlue as soon as possible
before the AdBlue tank is
completely empty. Otherwise, a
restart of the engine will not be
possible.
4. The last warning level is entered
when the AdBlue tank is empty.
Restart of the engine is not
possible.
A message appears in the Driver
Information Centre. Additionally,
control indicator u will flash and
a chime will sound.
Refill the tank to a level of at least
5 l of AdBlue, otherwise restarting
of the engine is not possible.
High emission warnings
In the event of a fault with the
emissions control system, different
messages are displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
Driving and operating 113
The messages and the restrictions
are a legal requirement. The warning
messages are accompanied by the
control indicators u, C and W.
Additionally, a chime will sound.
Follow the instructions of the warning
messages. If starting is prevented,
seek the assistance of a workshop.
Refilling AdBlue
Caution
Only use AdBlue that complies
with European standards
DIN 70 070 and ISO 22241-1.
Do not use additives.
Do not dilute AdBlue.
Otherwise the selective catalytic
reduction system could be
damaged.
Notice
Whenever a filling pump with a
nozzle for passenger cars is not
available at a filling station, use only
AdBlue bottles or canisters with a
sealed refill adapter for refilling, to
prevent splashback and overspill,
and in order to ensure that the fumes
from the tank are captured and do
not emerge. AdBlue in bottles or
canisters is available in many filling
stations and can be purchased e.g.
at Vauxhall dealers and other retail
outlets.
Since AdBlue has a limited
durability, check the date of expiry
before refilling.
Notice
Refill the tank to a level of at least
5 l to ensure that the new AdBlue
level is being detected.
In case AdBlue refill is not
successfully detected:
1. Continuously drive the vehicle
for 10 min making sure that
vehicle speed is always higher
than 12 mph.
2. If AdBlue refill is detected
successfully, AdBlue supply-
driven warnings or limitations will
disappear.
If AdBlue refill is still not detected,
seek the assistance of a workshop.
If AdBlue must be refilled at
temperatures below -11 °C, the
refilling of AdBlue may not be
detected by the system. In this
event, park the vehicle in a space
with a higher ambient temperature
until AdBlue is liquified.
Notice
When unscrewing the protective cap
from the filler neck, ammonia fumes
may emerge. Do not inhale as the
fumes have a pungent smell. The
fumes are not harmful by inhalation.
The AdBlue tank should be filled
completely. This must be done if the
warning message regarding
prevention of an engine restart is
already displayed.
AdBlue refilling quantity 3 237.
The vehicle must be parked on a level
surface.
The filler neck for AdBlue is located
behind the fuel filler flap.

Adaptive cruise control
The adaptive cruise control is an
enhancement of the cruise control
with the additional feature of
maintaining a certain following
distance to the vehicle ahead.
It uses radar and camera sensors to
detect the vehicles ahead. If no
vehicle is detected in the driving path,
the adaptive cruise control will
behave like a conventional cruise
control.
The adaptive cruise control
automatically decelerates the vehicle
when approaching a slower moving
vehicle. It then adjusts the vehicle
speed to follow the vehicle ahead at
the selected following distance. The
vehicle speed increases or decreases
to follow the vehicle ahead, but will
not exceed the set speed. It may
apply limited braking with activated
brake lights.
If the vehicle ahead accelerates or
changes lane, the adaptive cruise
control progressively accelerates the
vehicle to return to the stored set
speed. If the driver operates the turn
lights to overtake a slower vehicle, the
adaptive cruise control allows the
vehicle to temporarily approach the
vehicle ahead to help passing it.
However, the set speed will never be
exceeded.
If the vehicle ahead is moving too
slowly and the selected following
distance cannot be maintained
anymore, a warning chime is given
and a message is displayed in the
Driver Information Centre on vehicles
with manual transmission. The
message prompts the driver to take
back control of the vehicle.
On vehicles with automatic
transmission, the system can brake
the vehicle until a full stop.
9Warning
The complete driver attention is
always required while driving with
adaptive cruise control. The driver
stays fully in control of the vehicle
because the brake pedal, the
accelerator pedal and the button
Ñ have priority over any adaptive
cruise control operation.

It is always possible to drive faster
than the selected set speed by
depressing the accelerator pedal.
When the accelerator pedal is
released, the vehicle returns to the
stored speed. If a slower moving
vehicle is ahead, the following
distance selected by the driver is
restored.
If the set speed is exceeded, the
indicated speed setting disappears
and a warning message is displayed.
9Warning
Accelerating by the driver
deactivates automatic braking by
the system. This is indicated as a
pop-up warning in the Driver
Information Centre.
Resuming stored speed
Move the thumb wheel to RES/+ at a
speed above 25 mph. The adaptive
cruise control is activated with the
stored set speed.
Adaptive cruise control on
vehicles with automatic
transmission
For vehicles with automatic
transmission, adaptive cruise control
allows to maintain the selected
distance behind a braking vehicle
until a complete stop is reached.
If the system has stopped your
vehicle behind another vehicle, then
the set speed is replaced by a green
control indicator .. This symbol
notifies, that the vehicle is hold
automatically in stop position.
When the vehicle ahead drives away
within some seconds and the traffic
conditions allow a restart of the
vehicle, then active cruise control is
resumed automatically.
If the stopped vehicle ahead was
stopped for a longer time and then
begins to move forward, the green
140 Driving and operating
control indicator . will flash and a
warning chime will sound as a
reminder to check traffic before
resuming.
When the vehicle ahead drives away,
depress the accelerator pedal or
press i to resume adaptive cruise
control.
If the vehicle stays stopped for more
than 5 minutes or if the driver's door
is opened and the driver's seat belt is
unfastened, then the electric parking
brake is applied automatically to hold
the vehicle. Control indicator j will
illuminate. To release electric parking
brake, press the accelerator pedal.
Electric parking brake 3 127.
9Warning
When the system is deactivated or
cancelled, the vehicle will no
longer be held at a stop and can
start moving. Be always prepared
to manually apply the brake to hold
the vehicle stationary.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is
being held at a stop by adaptive
cruise control. Always move
selector lever to park position P
and switch off the ignition before
leaving the vehicle.
Setting the following distance
When adaptive cruise control detects
a slower moving vehicle in the driving
path, it will adjust the vehicle speed to
maintain the following distance
selected by the driver.
The following distance can be set to
close (1 bar), normal (2 bars) or far (3
bars).
If the engine is running and the
adaptive cruise control is enabled

Press w, the adaptive cruise control
mode is disabled and the adaptive
cruise control indication extinguishes
in the Driver Information Centre.
Pressing 5 to activate the speed
limiter deactivates adaptive cruise
control.
Switching off the ignition deletes the
stored set speed.
Driver's attention
Use the adaptive cruise control
carefully on bends or mountain
roads, as it can lose the vehicle
ahead and needs time to detect it
again.
Do not use the system on
slippery roads as it can create
rapid changes in tyre traction
(wheel spinning), so that you
could lose control of the vehicle.
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control during rain, snow or
heavy dirt, as the radar sensor
can be covered by a water film,
dust, ice or snow. This reduces or
suppresses completely the
visibility. In case of sensor
blockage, clean the sensor
cover.
Do not use the system when the
spare wheel is in use.
142 Driving and operating
System limits
9Warning
The system's automatic brake
force does not permit hard braking
and the braking level may not be
sufficient to avoid a collision.
After a sudden lane change, the
system needs a certain time to
detect the next preceding
vehicle. So if a new vehicle is
detected, the system may
accelerate instead of braking.
The adaptive cruise control does
ignore the oncoming traffic.
The adaptive cruise control does
not consider pedestrians and
animals for braking and driving
off.
The adaptive cruise control
considers stopped vehicles only
at low speed.
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control when towing a trailer.
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on roads with an incline of
more than 10%.
As the radar's field of detection is
quite narrow, it is possible that the
system may not detect:
vehicles of reduced width, e.g.
motorcycles, scooters
vehicles not running in the middle
of the lane
vehicles entering a corner
vehicles suddenly pulling out
Bends
The adaptive cruise control calculates
a predicted path based on the
centrifugal force. This predicted path
considers the current bend
characteristic, but cannot consider a
future bend change. The system may
lose the current vehicle ahead or
consider a vehicle which is not in the
actual lane. This can happen when
entering or exiting a bend or if the
bend gets stronger or weaker. If it no
longer detects any vehicle ahead,
then w will extinguish.
If the centrifugal force is too high in a
bend, the system slows down the
vehicle slightly. This braking level is
not designed to avoid spinning-off the
bend. The driver is responsible for
reducing the selected speed before
entering a bend and in general to
adapt the speed to the road type and
to existing speed limits.
Motorways
On motorways, adapt the set speed
to the situation and the weather.
Always consider that adaptive cruise
Driving and operating 143
control has a limited visibility range, a
limited braking level and a certain
reaction time to verify if a vehicle is on
the driving path or not. Adaptive
cruise control may not be able to
brake the vehicle in time to avoid a
collision with a much slower vehicle or
after a lane change. This is
particularly true while driving fast or if
the visibility is reduced due to weather
conditions.
While entering or exiting a motorway,
adaptive cruise control may lose the
vehicle ahead and accelerate up to
the set speed. For this reason,
decrease the set speed before the
exit or before the entry.
Vehicle path changes
If another vehicle enters your driving
path, adaptive cruise control will first
consider the vehicle when it is
completely in your path. Be ready to
take action and depress the brake
pedal if you need to brake more
quickly.
Hill considerations
9Warning
Do not use the adaptive cruise
control on steep hill roads.
System performance on hills depends
on vehicle speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions and the road gradient. It
may not detect a vehicle in your path
while driving on hills. On steep hills,
you may have to use the accelerator
pedal to maintain your vehicle speed.
When going downhill you may have to
brake to maintain or reduce your
speed.
Note that applying the brake
deactivates the system.
Radar unit
The radar unit is located in the middle
of the front bumper.
9Warning
The radar unit was aligned
carefully during manufacture.
Therefore, in the event of a front-
end impact, do not use the system.
The front bumper may appear to
be intact, however the sensor
behind may be affected and react
incorrectly. After an accident,
consult a workshop to verify and
adjust the radar unit position.
144 Driving and operating
9Warning
Do not use a license plate support
on the front bumper to ensure
proper radar unit functionality.
Fault
In the event of an adaptive cruise
control fault, a warning light is
illuminated in the instrument cluster
and a warning message is displayed
in the Driver Information Centre
accompanied by an audible signal.
The adaptive cruise control may not
operate correctly if traffic signs do not
comply with the Vienna Convention
on Road Signs and Signals.
Have the system checked by a dealer
or a qualified workshop.
As a safety measure, do not use the
system if the brake lights are faulty.
Do not use the system if the front
bumper is damaged.
Forward collision alert
The forward collision alert may help to
avoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes.
The forward collision alert uses the
front camera in the windscreen and
depending on the vehicle
configuration a radar unit located
behind the front bumper to detect a
vehicle directly ahead, in the path.
If a vehicle directly ahead is
approached too quickly, a warning
chime sounds and a message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
9Warning
Forward collision alert is just a
warning system and does not
apply the brakes. When
approaching a vehicle ahead too
rapidly, it may not provide you
enough time to avoid a collision.
The driver accepts full
responsibility for the appropriate
following distance based on traffic,
weather and visibility conditions.
The complete attention of the
driver is always required while
driving. The driver must always be
ready to take action and apply the
brakes.
Activation
The forward collision alert operates
from 3 mph to vehicle's maximum
speed.
Driving and operating 145
Alerting the driver
The driver is warned by following
alerts:
A warning message is displayed
in the Driver Information Center,
when the distance to the vehicle
ahead gets too small.
A warning message is displayed
in the Driver Information Center
and a warning chime sounds,
when a collision is imminent and
immediate driver's action is
required.
In some cases, the system
performs a short braking, when a
collision is imminent and
immediate driver's action is
required.
Selecting the alert sensitivity
Three alert sensitivities can be
selected in the settings of the active
emergency braking within the vehicle
personalisation 3 80.
The chosen setting will be memorised
when the ignition has been switched
off. The alert timing will vary based on
selected alert setting.
Deactivation
The system can only be deactivated
by deactivating the active emergency
braking in the vehicle personalisation
3 80. When ignition is switched on
next time, system is activated.
System limitations
Forward collision alert is designed to
warn on vehicles, pedestrians and
cyclists, but may react also to other
objects.
In the following cases, forward
collision alert may not detect a vehicle
ahead or sensor performance is
limited:
driving on winding or hilly roads
driving during nighttime
weather limits visibility, such as
fog, rain, or snow
the sensor in the windscreen or
the radar unit behind the front
bumper is blocked by snow, ice,
slush, mud, dirt or by foreign
objects, e.g. stickers
the windscreen is damaged or
affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers
the bumper is damaged or
affected by foreign objects, e.g.
license plate support
Active emergency braking
Active emergency braking can help to
reduce the damage and injury from
crashes with vehicles and
pedestrians directly ahead, when the
driver does not actively take action
either by manual braking or by
steering. Before the active
emergency braking applies, the driver
is warned by the forward collision
alert.
Forward collision alert 3 144.
Front pedestrian protection 3 148.
Active emergency braking can be
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 80. If deactivated,
m illuminates in the instrument
cluster. When ignition is switched on
next time, system is activated by
default.
146 Driving and operating
The feature uses various inputs (e.g.
camera sensor, radar sensor) to
calculate the probability of a frontal
collision.
9Warning
This system is not intended to
replace the driver responsibility for
driving the vehicle and looking
ahead. Its function is limited to
supplemental use only to reduce
the vehicle speed before a
collision.
The system may not react to
animals. After a sudden lane
change, the system needs a
certain time to detect the next
preceding vehicle.
The driver must always be ready
to take action and apply the brakes
and steer to avoid collisions.
Functionality
Depending on the vehicle
configuration and the detected
objects, there are several operational
speed ranges.
On vehicles equipped only with front
camera, the active emergency
braking operates from 3 mph to
50 mph when a vehicle has been
detected.
On vehicles equipped with radar
sensor and front camera, the active
emergency braking operates from
3 mph to 87 mph when a vehicle has
been detected.
Active emergency braking only works
when the seat belts of the front
passengers are fastened.
The system includes:
brake preparation system
emergency automatic braking
smart brake assist
forward collision alert
front pedestrian protection
Brake preparation system
When approaching a vehicle ahead
or a pedestrian so quickly that a
collision is likely, the brake
preparation system slightly
pressurises the brakes. This reduces
the response time, when braking is
requested.
Emergency automatic braking
After activation of brake preparation
system and just before the imminent
collision, this function automatically
applies braking to reduce the impact
speed of the collision or prohibit a
crash.
If active emergency braking is
applied, m flashes in the instrument
cluster.
Emergency automatic braking is
designed to react on vehicles,
pedestrians or cyclist ahead.
Forward collision alert 3 144.
Front pedestrian protection 3 148.
Below a speed of 19 mph, emergency
automatic braking may slow down the
vehicle to a complete stop. If the
Driving and operating 147
speed exceeds 19 mph, emergency
automatic braking reduces the speed.
However, the driver must apply the
brake to come to a complete stop.
Automatic transmission: If the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, automatic
braking is maintained for a certain
time. Keep the brake pedal
depressed to prevent the vehicle from
starting off again.
Manual transmission: If the vehicle
comes to a complete stop, the engine
may stall.
Cruise control will be deactivated
when an emergency automatic
braking occurs.
9Warning
Do not rely on the system to brake
the vehicle. Emergency automatic
braking will not brake outside of its
operating speed range and only
responds to detected vehicles and
pedestrians.
Smart brake assist
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently
to avoid a collision, this system will
supplement the braking. This
assistance will only be provided if the
driver presses the brake pedal.
Smart brake assist will automatically
disengage when the brake pedal is
released.
Forward collision alert 3 144.
Front pedestrian protection 3 148.
System limitations
In some cases, the active emergency
braking system may provide an
automatic braking in situations that
seem to be unnecessary, for instance
in parking garages, due to various
types of objects, i.e., traffic signs or
vehicles in another lane. Firmly apply
the accelerator pedal to override the
automatic braking if the situation and
the surroundings permit.
In the following cases, active
emergency braking performance
might be limited:
driving on winding or hilly roads
detecting vehicles with a trailer,
tractors, muddy vehicles, etc.
detecting a vehicle when weather
limits visibility, such as in fog,
rain, or snow
driving during nighttime
the sensor in the windscreen or
the radar unit behind the front
bumper is blocked by snow, ice,
slush, mud, dirt or by foreign
objects, e.g. stickers
the windscreen is damaged
the bumper is damaged or
affected by foreign objects, e.g.
license plate support
Complete attention is always required
while driving, and be ready to take
action to avoid crashes.

vehicle messages are displayed in
the Driver Information Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 79.
Front pedestrian protection
Front pedestrian protection may help
to avoid or reduce the harm caused
by front-end crashes with pedestrians
when driving forward.
The system uses the front camera in
the windscreen and depending on the
vehicle configuration a radar unit in
the front bumper to detect a
pedestrian directly ahead in the path.
9Warning
Do not use a license plate support
on the front bumper to ensure
proper radar unit functionality.
Front pedestrian protection can
detect and alert to pedestrians in a
forward gear at speeds between
3 mph and 37 mph. Additionally, it can
automatically brake the vehicle.
During nighttime driving, system
performance is limited.
9Danger
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.

Front-rear parking assist
Depending on the ammount of
installed ultrasonic parking sensors,
the system operates differently:
8 ultrasonic parking sensors
If the vehicle is equipped with four
ultrasonic parking sensors each in
both the rear and front bumper, the
front-rear parking assist measures
the distance between the vehicle and
obstacles in front and behind the
vehicle. It informs and warns the
driver by giving warning chimes and
display indication.
Indication
The system warns the driver with
warning chimes against potentially
hazardous obstacles in front of the
vehicle and behind the vehicle.
The interval between the sounds
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to that obstacle. When the
distance is less than approx. 30 cm,
the sound is continuous.
Additionally, the distance to rear and
front obstacles is displayed by
changing distance lines in the Info
Display 3 77.
If the vehicle stops for more than
3 seconds in a forward gear, if the
automatic transmission is in P
position or the vehicle speed exceeds
6 mph, no acoustic warning chimes
are given and no viual feedback is
displayed in the Info Display.
12 ultrasonic parking sensors
If the vehicle is equipped with six
ultrasonic parking sensors each in
both the rear and front bumper, the
system warns the driver by display
indication and warning chimes.
However, the display indication can
vary depending on version.
152 Driving and operating
If the obstacle (1) is within the driving
path and might lead to a collision, a

Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist supports the driver
to avoid unintended leaving of the
lane. The front camera observes road
edges, as well as the lane markings
between which the vehicle is driving.
If the vehicle approaches a road edge
or a lane marking, the steering wheel
is gently turned to position so that the
vehicle turns back into the lane. The
driver will then notice a turning
movement of the steering wheel. Turn
steering wheel in same direction, if
the system does not steer sufficiently.
Turn steering wheel gently into
opposite direction, if lane change is
intended.
When the system steers to correct the
trajectory of the vehicle, L flashes
yellow in the instrument cluster.
Unintended lane departure is not
assumed by the system when the turn
lights are operated and during few
seconds after turn lights have been
switched off.
If the system detects that the steering
wheel is not held permanently, it
interrupts the correction. A warning
message in the Driver Information
Centre accompanied by a warning
chime alerts when immediate driver´s
action is required.
If the vehicle is equipped with active
side blind spot detection, the
interruption of the lane correction
might be cancelled.
Side blind spot alert 3 159.

System limitations
The system performance may be
affected by:
a dirty or foggy windscreen or if
the windscreen is affected by
foreign objects, e.g. stickers
close vehicles ahead
banked roads
winding or hilly roads
road edges
sudden lighting changes
adverse environmental
conditions, e.g. heavy rain or
snow
vehicle modifications, e.g. tyres
Switch off the system if the system is
disturbed by tar marks, shadows,
road cracks, temporary or
construction lane markings, or other
road imperfections.
9Warning
Always keep your attention on the
road and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane, otherwise
vehicle damage, injury or death
could occur.
Lane keep assist does not
continuously steer the vehicle.
The system may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give an alert,
even if a lane marking is detected.
The steering of the lane keep
assist may not be sufficient to
avoid a lane departure.
The system may not detect hands-
off driving due to external
influences like road condition and
surface and weather. The driver
has full responsibility to control the
168 Driving and operating
vehicle and is always required to
keep the hands on the steering
wheel while driving.
Using the system while towing a
trailer or on slippery roads could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
and a crash. Switch the system off.
Advanced lane keep assist
9Warning
The system assists the driver in
managing the steering,
acceleration and braking within
the limits of the laws of physics
and the capabilities of the vehicle.
Some road infrastructure
elements or vehicles present on
the road may not be properly seen
or may be poorly interpreted by the
camera and radar, which may lead
to an unexpected change in
direction, a lack of steering
correction and/or inappropriate
management of the acceleration
or braking.
Advanced lane keep assist is an
enhancement of the lane keep assist
system.
The activated system observes the
lane markings by using the camera
located at the top of the windscreen.
It steers the vehicle inside the
detected lane. The driver will notice a
turning movement of the steering
wheel.
Thus, the current position of the
vehicle within the lane is kept. This
position is not necessarily the centre
of the lane.
In the case that the vehicle is driving
at the outer edge of the lane, the
system corrects the trajectory
smoothly towards the centre of the
currently driven lane when a
determined speed has been
exceeded. Again, the driver will notice
a turning movement of the steering
wheel.
When the vehicle is steered by the
system, O illuminates green in the
instrument cluster.
However, the control of the vehicle
can be taken over at any time by the
driver. Therefore, the driver needs to
apply some additional force when
turning the steering wheel.
If the system detects that the driver is
not holding the wheel firmly enough,
it triggers a series of gradual alerts. If
the interruption takes too long, the
system will be deactivated. O
extinguishes in the instrument cluster.
The system has to be reactivated
again by the driver.

road imperfections.
9Warning
Always keep your attention on the
road and maintain proper vehicle
position within the lane, otherwise
vehicle damage, injury or death
could occur.
The system may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give an alert,
even if a lane marking is detected.
The steering of the advanced lane
keep assist may not be sufficient
to avoid a lane departure.
The system may not detect hands-
off driving due to external
influences (road condition and

Using the system while towing a
trailer or on slippery roads could
cause loss of control of the vehicle
and a crash. Switch the system off.
Driver alert
The driver alert system monitores the
driving time and the vigilance of the
driver. Monitoring the vigilance of the
driver is based on the trajectory
variations of the vehicle compared to
the lane markings.
The system cannot replace the need
for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Taking a break is recommended as
soon as feeling tired or at least every
2 hours. Do not drive when feeling
tired.
Activation or Deactivation
The system can be activated or
deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation 3 80.
The state of the system stays in
memory when the ignition is switched
off.
Driving time alert
The driver gets notified by a pop-up
reminder symbol in the Driver
Information Centre simultaneously
with an acoustic alert if the driver has
not taken a break after 2 hours of
Driving and operating 171
driving at a speed above 40 mph. The
alert is repeated hourly until the
vehicle is stopped, no matter how
vehicle speed evolves.
The counting of driving time alert is
reset when the ignition has been
switched off for a few minutes.
Driver drowsiness detection
The system monitors the driver's level
of vigilance at speeds above 40 mph.
A camera at the top of the windscreen
detects variations in trajectory
compared to the lane markings.
If the trajectory of the vehicle
suggests a certain level of
drowsiness or inattention by the
driver, the system triggers the first
level of alert. The driver is notified by
a message and an audible signal is
given.
After three first level alerts, the
system triggers a new alert with a
message, accompanied by a more
pronounced audible signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor
road surface or strong winds), the
system may give alerts independent
of the driver's level of vigilance.
The driver drowsiness detection is
reinitialised when the ignition has
been switched off for a few minutes or
the speed remains below 40 mph for
a few minutes.
System limitations
In the following situations, the system
may not operate properly or even not
operate at all:
poor visibility caused by
inadequate lighting of the
roadway, falling snow, heavy
rain, dense fog etc.
dazzle caused by headlamps of
an oncoming vehicles, low sun,
reflections on damp roads,

General information
9Warning
Persons with a pacemaker should
consult a doctor for possible
precautions.
Charging the vehicle's high voltage
battery depends upon several factors:
high voltage battery of the vehicle
internal onboard charger (OBC)
external charging device
charging cable
The charging cable connects the
vehicle's high voltage battery with an
external charging device providing
electric power. This may be a
172 Driving and operating
domestic electrical outlet, a
Green'Up socket, a wall box or a
public charging station.
The high voltage battery can be
charged with direct current (DC) only.
When charging from a domestic
electrical outlet, a wall box or an
alternating current (AC) charging
station, AC has to be converted into
DC. This is done by the vehicle's
onboard charger. The onboard
charger is available with 7.4 kW
(single-phase) and 11 kW (3-phase).
If the vehicle is charged at a public DC
charging station, no DC conversion is
required. The high voltage battery
can be directly charged with DC
provided by the DC charging station.
The speed of charging the vehicle's
high voltage battery depends upon
the weakest element of the charging
chain. To achieve the maximum
charging speed, charging cable and
charging device have to be attuned to
each other.
Notice
Make sure that the charging cable
used fits to the vehicle's onboard
charger.
Charging types 3 172.
Charging cable 3 179.
Electric power consumption and
range
The electric power consumption
(combined) is within a range of 17.6
to 15.9 kWh/100 km.
The range is up to 217.5 miles.
For the values specific to your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of
Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
The determination of electric power
consumption is regulated by directive
R (EC) No. 715/2007 and No.
2017/1151 (in the latest applicable
version).
Charging types
There are different types of charging
the vehicle's high voltage battery.
Charging at wallboxes
A wallbox is a charging unit for private
households. It provides a charging
cable which has to be connected to
the vehicle's charging port. Some
wallboxes do not provide a charging
cable. In this case, a separate
charging cable is required which has
to be connected to both the wallbox
and the charging port of the vehicle.
Charging time may take approx. 5
hours with a charging power of 11 kW
or 7.5 hours with a charging power of
7.4 kW.
Charging at charging stations
Charging stations may provide
alternating current (AC) or direct
current (DC). Charging time may vary
depending on the charging station,
DC charging stations provide the
fastest charging. To charge the
Driving and operating 173
vehicle's battery, the charging cable
of the charging station has to be
connected to the charging port of the
vehicle.
AC charging station: Charging
time may take approx. 5 hours
with a charging power of 11 kW
or 7.5 hours with a charging
power of 7.4 kW.
DC charging station: Up to
approx. 80% of battery capacity
may be charged in approx. 30
minutes at a charging power of
100 kW.
Charging at domestic electrical
outlets
The vehicle's high voltage battery can
be charged at a domestic electrical
outlet. Connect the charging cable to
the vehicle's charging port and to the
domestic electrical outlet.
Charging time may take approx. 30
hours with a charging power of 1.8
kW.
Charging cable
Depending on the charging type,
different charging cables are used.

Important information about
portable electric vehicle charging
Charging an electric vehicle can
stress a building's electrical
system more than a typical
household appliance.
Before you plug in to any
electrical outlet, have a qualified
electrician inspect and verify the
electrical system (electrical
outlet, wiring, junctions and
protection devices) for heavy-
duty service at a 10 A continuous
load.
Electrical outlets may wear out
with normal usage or be
damaged over time, making them
unsuitable for electric vehicle
charging.
Check the electrical outlet / plug
while charging and discontinue
use if the electrical outlet / plug is
hot, then have the electrical
outlet serviced by a qualified
electrician.

E DIN 51626-1 or equivalent.
The engine is capable of running with
fuel that contains up to 10% ethanol
(e.g. named E10).
Use fuel with the recommended
octane rating. A lower octane rating
can reduce engine power and torque
and slightly increases fuel
consumption.
Caution
Do not use fuel or fuel additives
that contain metallic compounds
such as manganese-based
additives. This may cause engine
damage.
Caution
Use of fuel with a lower octane
rating than the lowest possible
rating could lead to uncontrolled
combustion and engine damage.
The engine specific requirements
regarding octane rating are given in
the engine data overview 3 236. A
country-specific label at the fuel filler
flap can supersede the requirement.
In certain countries, the use of a
particular fuel, e.g. a specific octane
rating, may be required to ensure
proper engine operation.
Driving and operating 181
Fuel for diesel engines
The Diesel engines are compatible
with bio-fuels that conform to current
and future European standards and
and can be obtained from filling
stations:
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 10% Fatty Acid
Methyl Ester).
Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets
standard EN15940 mixed with a
biofuel that meets standard
EN14214 (possibly containing up to
7% Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
The use of B20 or B30 fuel meeting
standard EN16709 is possible in your
Diesel engines. However, this use,
even occasional, requires strict
application of the special servicing
conditions referred to as "Arduous
conditions".
For more information, contact a
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Caution
The use of any other type of (bio)
fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure
or diluted, domestic fuel etc.) is
strictly prohibited (risk of damage
to the engine and fuel system).
Notice
The only Diesel additives authorised
for use are those that meet the
B715000 standard.
Low temperature operation
At temperatures below 0 °C, some
diesel products with biodiesel blends
may clog, freeze or gel, which may
affect the fuel supply system. Starting
and engine operation may not work
properly. Make sure to fill winter
grade diesel fuel at ambient
temperatures below 0 °C.
182 Driving and operating
Arctic grade diesel fuel can be used
at extremely low temperatures below
-20 °C. Using this fuel grade in warm
or hot climates is not recommended
and may cause engine stalling, poor
starting or damage on the fuel
injection system.

Fuel consumption - CO2-
Emissions
The fuel consumption (combined) is
within a range of 44 to 74 mpg.
The CO2 emission is within a range of
144 to 101 g/km.
General information
For the values specific to your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of
Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
The determination of fuel
consumption is regulated by directive
R (EC) No. 715/2007 and No.
2017/1151 (in the latest applicable
version).
The specification of CO2 emission is
also a constituent of the directive.
The figures given must not be taken
as a guarantee for the actual fuel
consumption of a particular vehicle.
Furthermore, fuel consumption is
dependent on personal driving style
as well as road and traffic conditions.
All values are based on the EU base
model with standard equipment.
The calculation of fuel consumption
takes into account the vehicle's kerb
weight, ascertained in accordance
with the regulations. Optional
equipment may result in slightly
higher fuel consumption and
CO2 emission levels and a lower
maximum speed.
184 Driving and operating
Trailer hitch
General information
Caution
When not in use, remove the
coupling ball bar.
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for
trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage. E.g. in case of
four bulbs with a power of 5 W each,
the function only detects lamp outage
when only a single 5 W lamp remains
or none remain.
Trailers equipped with LED lights are
not suitable for the wiring harness of
this trailer hitch.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye.
If this is the case, use the coupling ball
bar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle to have
it on hand if needed.
Driving characteristics and
towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricate
the coupling ball. However, do not do
so if a stabiliser, which acts on the
coupling ball, is being used to reduce
snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph. A maximum speed
of 60 mph is only appropriate if an
oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle's curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more
slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.
Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 239.
Trailer towing
Trailer loads
The permissible trailer loads are
vehicle and engine-dependent
maximum values which must not be
exceeded. The actual trailer load is
the difference between the actual
gross weight of the trailer and the
actual coupling socket load with the
trailer coupled.
The permissible trailer loads are
specified in the vehicle documents. In
general, they are valid for gradients
up to 12%.
The permissible trailer load applies
up to the specified incline and at sea
level. Since engine power decreases
as altitude increases due to the air
becoming thinner, therefore reducing
climbing ability, the permissible gross
train weight also decreases by 10%
Driving and operating 185
for every 1000 m of altitude. The
gross train weight does not have to be
reduced when driving on roads with
slight inclines (less than 8%, e.g.
motorways).
The permissible gross train weight
must not be exceeded. This weight is
specified on the identification plate
3 233.
Vertical coupling load
The vertical coupling load is the load
exerted by the trailer on the coupling
ball. It can be varied by changing the
weight distribution when loading the
trailer.
The maximum permissible vertical
coupling load (55 kg) is specified on
the towing equipment identification
plate and in the vehicle documents.
Always aim for the maximum vertical
coupling load, especially in the case
of heavy trailers. The vertical coupling
load should never fall below 25 kg.
Rear axle load
When the trailer is coupled and the
towing vehicle fully loaded, the
permissible rear axle load (see
identification plate or vehicle
documents) may be exceeded by
60 kg, the gross vehicle weight rating
must not be exceeded. If the
permissible rear axle load is
exceeded, a maximum speed of
60 mph applies.

Tyre repair kit 3 212.
Wheels and tyres
Tyre condition, wheel condition
Drive over edges slowly and at right
angles if possible. Driving over sharp
edges can cause tyre and wheel
damage. Do not trap tyres on the kerb
when parking.
Regularly check the wheels for
damage. Seek the assistance of a
workshop in the event of damage or
unusual wear.
Winter tyres
Winter tyres improve driving safety at
temperatures below 7 °C and should
therefore be fitted on all wheels.
In accordance with country-specific
regulations, affix the speed sticker in
the driver's field of view, if the tyre
speed code is below the maximum
speed of the vehicle.
All tyre sizes are permitted as winter
tyres 3 239.
Vehicle care 209
Tyre designations
E.g. 225/55 R 18 98 V
225 : tyre width, mm
55 : cross-section ratio (tyre height
to tyre width), %
R: belt type: Radial
RF : type: RunFlat
18 : wheel diameter, inches
98 : load index e.g. 98 is equivalent
to 750 kg
V: speed code letter
Speed code letter:
Q: up to 100 mph
S: up to 112 mph
T: up to 118 mph
H: up to 130 mph
V: up to 150 mph
W: up to 168 mph
Choose a tyre appropriate for the
maximum speed of your vehicle.
The maximum speed is achievable at
kerb weight with driver (75 kg) plus
125 kg payload. Optional equipment
could reduce the maximum speed of
the vehicle.
Directional tyres
Directional tyres should be mounted
so that they rotate in the correct
direction. The proper rotation
direction is indicated by a symbol
(e.g. an arrow) on the sidewall.
Tyre pressure
Check the pressure of cold tyres at
least every 14 days and before any
long journey. Do not forget the spare
wheel. This also applies to vehicles
with tyre deflation detection system.
The tyre pressure information label
indicates the original equipment tyres
and the correspondent tyre
pressures.
The tyre pressure data refers to cold
tyres. It applies to summer and winter
tyres.
Always inflate the full size spare tyre
to the pressure specified for full load.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear.
The driver is responsible for correct
adjustment of tyre pressure.
The tyre pressure tables show all
possible tyre combinations 3 239.
For the tyres approved for your
vehicle, refer to the EEC Certificate of
Conformity provided with your vehicle
or other national registration
documents.
For the correct tyre pressure value,
follow the procedure below:
1. Identify the engine identifier code.
Engine data 3 236.
2. Identify the respective tyre.
210 Vehicle care
9Warning
If the pressure is too low, this can
result in considerable tyre warm-
up and internal damage, leading to
tread separation and even to tyre
blow-out at high speeds.
9Warning
For specific tyres the
recommended tyre pressure as
shown in the tyre pressure table
may exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Never exceed the maximum tyre
pressure as indicated on the tyre.
Temperature dependency
The tyre pressure depends on the
temperature of the tyre. During
driving, tyre temperature and
pressure increase. Tyre pressure
values provided on the tyre
information label and tyre pressure
chart are valid for cold tyres, which
means at 20 °C.
The pressure increases by nearly
1.5 psi for a 10 °C temperature
increase. This must be considered
when warm tyres are checked.
Tyre deflation detection
system
The tyre deflation detection system
continually checks the rotation speed
of all four wheels and warns on low
tyre pressure condition once vehicle
is driving. This is achieved by
comparing tyre rolling circumference
with reference values and further
signals.
If a tyre loses pressure the control
indicator w illuminates and a warning
message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
Control indicator w 3 72.
In this case reduce speed, avoid
sharp cornering and strong braking.
Stop at next safe opportunity and
check tyre pressure.
After adjusting tyre pressure initialise
system to extinguish the control
indicator and restart system.
If the failure continues to be
displayed, contact a workshop. The
system is inoperable when the ABS or
Electronic Stability Control has a
malfunction or a temporary spare
wheel is used. Once the tyre has been
refitted, check the tyre pressure with
cold tyres and initialise the system.
Caution
Deflation detection system warns
just about low tyre pressure
condition and does not replace
regular tyre maintenance by the
driver.
System initialisation
After tyre pressure correction or
wheel change, the system must be
initialised to learn new circumference
reference values:
1. Always ensure that all four tyres
have correct tyre pressure
3 239.
2. Apply parking brake.
Vehicle care 211
3. Initialise the system via the Info
Display 3 77.
4. Reset is confirmed by pop-up
indication.
After initialisation system
automatically calibrates to new tyre
pressures during driving. After longer
drive the system will adopt and
monitor new pressures.
Always check tyre pressure with cold
tyres.
System has to be reinitialised when:
Tyre pressure has been changed
Load condition has been
changed
Wheels have been swapped or
exchanged
The system will not warn
instantaneously on a tyre blow out or
a rapid deflation. This is due to
required calculation time.
Tread depth
Check tread depth at regular
intervals.
Tyres should be replaced for safety
reasons at a tread depth of 2-3 mm
(4 mm for winter tyres).
For safety reasons, it is
recommended that the tread depth of
the tyres on one axle should not vary
by more than 2 mm.
The legally permissible minimum
tread depth (1.6 mm) has been
reached when the tread has worn
down as far as one of the tread wear
indicators (TWI). Their position is
indicated by markings on the
sidewall.
If there is more wear at the front than
the rear, swap round front wheels and
rear wheels periodically. Ensure that
the direction of rotation of the wheels
remains the same.
Tyres age, even if they are not used.
We recommend tyre replacement
every 6 years.
Changing tyre and wheel
size
If tyres of a different size than those
fitted at the factory are used, it may be
necessary to reprogramme the
system and make other vehicle
modifications.
Have the label with tyre pressures
replaced.
9Warning
The use of unsuitable tyres or
wheels may lead to accidents and
will invalidate the vehicle
operating permit.
212 Vehicle care
Wheel covers
Wheel covers and tyres that are
factory approved for the respective
vehicle and comply with all of the
relevant wheel and tyre combination
requirements must be used.
If the wheel covers and tyres used are
not factory approved, the tyres must
not have a rim protection ridge.
Wheel covers must not impair brake
cooling.
9Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel
covers could lead to sudden
pressure loss and thereby
accidents.
Vehicles with steel wheels: When
using locking wheel nuts, do not
attach wheel covers.
Tyre chains
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
front wheels.
Always use fine mesh chains that add
no more than 9 mm to the tyre tread
and the inboard sides (including chain
lock).
9Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Tyre chains are permitted on tyres of
size 185/65R15 and 195/55R16.
Temporary spare wheel
The use of tyre chains is not permitted
on the temporary spare wheel.
Tyre repair kit
Minor damage to the tyre tread can be
repaired with the tyre repair kit.
Do not remove foreign bodies from
the tyres.
Tyre damage exceeding 4 mm or that
is at tyre's sidewall cannot be repaired
with the tyre repair kit.
Depending on version, there are two
different tyre repair kits (Type A and
Type B).
9Warning
Do not drive faster than 50 mph.
Do not use for a lengthy period.
Steering and handling may be
affected.
In the case of a flat tyre:
Apply the parking brake and engage

battery, we recommend running
the engine.
12. Set the rocker switch on the
compressor to I. The tyre is filled
with sealant.
13. The compressor pressure gauge
briefly indicates up to
600 kPa (6 bar) whilst the sealant
bottle is emptying (approx.
30 seconds). Then the pressure
starts to drop.
14. All of the sealant is pumped into
the tyre. Then the tyre is being
inflated.
15. The prescribed tyre pressure
should be obtained within ten
minutes.
Tyre pressure 3 239.
Vehicle care 215
When the correct pressure is
obtained, switch off the
compressor.
If the prescribed tyre pressure is
not obtained within ten minutes,
remove the tyre repair kit. Move
the vehicle one tyre rotation.
Reattach the tyre repair kit and
continue the filling procedure for
ten minutes. If the prescribed tyre
pressure is still not obtained, the
tyre is too badly damaged. Seek
the assistance of a workshop.
Drain excess tyre pressure with
the button on the air hose.
Do not run the compressor longer
than ten minutes.
16. Detach the tyre repair kit. Remove
sealant bottle from compressor.
Screw the filler hose to the free
connection of the sealant bottle.
This prevents sealant from
escaping. Stow tyre repair kit in
load compartment.
17. Remove any excess sealant
using a cloth.
18. Continue driving immediately so
that sealant is evenly distributed
in the tyre. Drive between
13 mph and 37 mph. After driving
approx. 3 miles but no more than
ten minutes, stop and check tyre
pressure. Screw compressor air
hose directly onto tyre valve when
doing this. Fill tyre as described
before. Drain excess tyre
pressure with the button on the air
hose.
If tyre pressure hasn't decreased
under 200 kPa (2 bar), set it to the
correct value. Otherwise the
vehicle must not be used. Seek
assistance of a workshop.
Repeat the checking procedure
once more after driving further
6 miles but no more than ten
minutes to check that there is no
more loss of pressure.
If the tyre pressure has fallen
below 200 kPa (2 bar), the vehicle
must not be used. Seek the
assistance of a workshop.
19. Stow away tyre repair kit in load
compartment.
Notice
The driving characteristics of the
repaired tyre are severely affected,
therefore have this tyre replaced.
If unusual noise is heard or the
compressor becomes hot, turn
compressor off for at least 30 min.
The built-in safety valve opens at a
pressure of seven bar (102 psi).
Note the expiry date of the kit. After
this date its sealing capability is no
longer guaranteed. Pay attention to
storage information on sealant
bottle.
Replace the used sealant bottle.
Dispose of the bottle as prescribed
by applicable laws.
The compressor and sealant can be
used from approx. -30 °C.

Appearance care
Exterior care
Locks
The locks are lubricated at the factory
using a high quality lock cylinder
grease. Use a de-icing agent only
when absolutely necessary, as this
has a degreasing effect and impairs
lock function. After using a de-icing
agent, have the locks regreased by a
workshop.
Washing
The paintwork of your vehicle is
exposed to environmental influences.
Bird droppings, dead insects, resin,
pollen and the like should be cleaned
off immediately, as they contain
aggressive constituents which can
cause paint damage.
If using a vehicle wash, comply with
the vehicle wash manufacturer's
instructions. The windscreen wiper
and rear window wiper must be
Vehicle care 225
switched off. Remove antenna and
external accessories such as roof
racks etc.
If you wash your vehicle by hand,
make sure that the insides of the
wheel housings are also thoroughly
rinsed out.
Clean edges and folds on opened
doors and the bonnet as well as the
areas they cover.
Clean bright metal mouldings with a
cleaning solution approved for
aluminium to avoid damages.
Caution
Always use a cleaning agent with
a pH value of 4 to 9.
Do not use cleaning agents on hot
surfaces.
Do not clean the engine compartment
with a steam-jet or high-pressure jet
cleaner.
Thoroughly rinse and leather-off the
vehicle. Rinse leather frequently. Use
separate leathers for painted and
glass surfaces: remnants of wax on
the windows will impair vision.
Have the door hinges of all doors
greased by a workshop.
Exterior lights
Headlight and other light covers are
made of plastic. Do not use any
abrasive or caustic agents, do not use
an ice scraper, and do not clean them
dry.
Polishing and waxing
Polishing is necessary only if the paint
has become dull or if solid deposits
have become attached to it.
Plastic body parts must not be treated
with wax or polishing agents.
Windows and wiper blades
Switch off wipers before handling in
their areas.
Use a soft lint-free cloth or chamois
leather together with window cleaner
and insect remover.
When cleaning the rear window from
inside, always wipe in parallel to the
heating element to prevent damage.
For mechanical removal of ice, use a
sharp-edged ice scraper. Press the
scraper firmly against the glass so
that no dirt can get under it and
scratch the glass.
Clean smearing wiper blades with a
soft cloth and window cleaner. Also
make sure to remove any residues
such as wax, insect residues and
similar from the window.
Ice residues, pollution and continuous
wiping on dry windows will damage or
even destroy the wiper blades.
Wheels and tyres
Do not use high-pressure jet
cleaners.
Clean rims with a pH-neutral wheel
cleaner.
Rims are painted and can be treated
with the same agents as the body.
Paintwork damage
Rectify minor paintwork damage with
a touch-up pen before rust forms.
Have more extensive damage or rust
areas repaired by a workshop.
226 Vehicle care
Underbody
Some areas of the vehicle underbody
have a PVC undercoating while other
critical areas have a durable
protective wax coating.
After the underbody is washed, check
the underbody and have it waxed if
necessary.
Bitumen / rubber materials could
damage the PVC coating. Have
underbody work carried out by a
workshop.
Before and after winter, wash the
underbody and have the protective
wax coating checked.
Towing equipment
Do not clean the coupling ball bar with
a steam-jet or high-pressure jet
cleaner.
Interior care
Interior and upholstery
Only clean the vehicle interior,
including the instrument panel fascia
and panelling, with a dry cloth or
interior cleaner.
Clean the leather upholstery with
clear water and a soft cloth. In case of
heavy soiling, use leather care.
The instrument cluster and the
displays should only be cleaned using
a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a
weak soap solution.
Clean fabric upholstery with a
vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove
stains with an upholstery cleaner.
Clothing fabrics may not be
colourfast. This could cause visible
discolourations, especially on light-
coloured upholstery. Removable
stains and discolourations should be
cleaned as soon as possible.
Clean seat belts with lukewarm water
or interior cleaner.
Caution
Close Velcro fasteners as open
Velcro fasteners on clothing could
damage seat upholstery.
The same applies to clothing with
sharp-edged objects, like zips or
belts or studded jeans.
Plastic and rubber parts
Plastic and rubber parts can be
cleaned with the same cleaner as
used to clean the body. Use interior
cleaner if necessary. Do not use any
other agent. Avoid solvents and petrol
in particular. Do not use high-
pressure jet cleaners.

Recommended fluids and
lubricants
Only use products that meet the
recommended specifications.
9Warning
Operating materials are
hazardous and could be
poisonous. Handle with care. Pay
attention to information given on
the containers.
Engine oil
Engine oil is identified by its quality
and its viscosity. Quality is more
important than viscosity when
selecting which engine oil to use. The
oil quality ensures e.g. engine
cleanliness, wear protection and oil
aging control, whereas viscosity
grade gives information on the oil's
thickness over a temperature range.
Select the appropriate engine oil
based on its quality and on the
minimum ambient temperature
3 235.
Topping up engine oil
Caution
In case of any spilled oil, wipe it up
and dispose it properly.
Engine oils of different manufacturers
and brands can be mixed as long as
they comply with the required engine
oil quality and viscosity.
Use of engine oils for all petrol
engines with only ACEA quality is
prohibited, since it can cause engine
damage under certain operating
conditions.
Additional engine oil additives
The use of additional engine oil
additives could cause damage and
invalidate the warranty.
Engine oil viscosity grades
The SAE viscosity grade gives
information of the thickness of the oil.
Multigrade oil is indicated by two
figures, e.g. SAE 5W-30. The first
figure, followed by a W, indicates the
low temperature viscosity and the
second figure the high temperature
viscosity.
Select the appropriate viscosity grade
depending on the minimum ambient
temperature 3 235.
All of the recommended viscosity
grades are suitable for high ambient
temperatures.
Coolant and antifreeze
Use only antifreeze approved for the
vehicle. Consult a workshop.
The system is factory filled with
coolant designed for excellent
corrosion protection and frost
protection down to approx. -28 °C. In
cold regions with very low
temperatures the factory filled coolant
provides frost protection down to
approx. -37 °C. This concentration
should be maintained all year round.
The use of additional coolant
additives that intend to give additional
corrosion protection or seal against
minor leaks can cause function
232 Service and maintenance
problems. Liability for consequences
resulting from the use of additional
coolant additives will be rejected.
Washer fluid
Use only washer fluid approved for
the vehicle to prevent damage of
wiper blades, paintwork, plastic and
rubber parts. Consult a workshop.
Brake and clutch fluid
Over time, brake fluid absorbs
moisture which will reduce braking
effectiveness. The brake fluid should
therefore be replaced at the specified
interval.
Use only brake fluid approved for the
vehicle. Consult a workshop.
AdBlue
Only use AdBlue to reduce the
nitrogen oxides in the exhaust
emission 3 111.

by using over-the-air technology.
For this, a secure radio network
connection between the vehicle and
the device management server will be
established when ignition is switched
on and a mobile network is available.
Depending on the equipment of the
vehicle, connection configuration
must be set to Connected vehicle to
allow the establishment of the radio
network connection.
Irrespective of a valid connected
service subscription, remote product
security or product safety related
device management and software
and firmware updates will be
performed when the processing is
Customer information 243
necessary for the compliance with a
legal obligation to which the
manufacturer is subject (e.g.
applicable product liability law,
emergency call regulation) or when
the processing is necessary in order
to protect the vital interests of the
respective vehicle users and
passengers.
The establishment of a secure radio
network connection and the related
remote updates are not affected by
privacy settings and will be performed
in principal after an initiation by the
vehicle user following a respective
notification.
The system is able to notify receipt of
an update as soon as it is connected
to an exterior Wi-Fi network or a
mobile network. Large updates are
downloaded only via the Wi-Fi
network.

notified on the Info Display at the end
of a trip with an option of immediate
installation or postponement of
installation.
The installation time is variable and
can take several minutes with a
maximum of about 30 minutes. A
notification will give an estimate of the
duration and a description of the
update.
Updates can be checked manually
via the Info Display. Follow the on-
screen prompts in the respective
menu.
Info Display 3 77.
Notice
Steps for downloading and installing
updates may vary by vehicle.

requires sustained attention by the
driver, the installation must be carried
out with the ignition on without
starting the engine. The installation
cannot be carried out in the following
cases:
engine running
emergency call in progress
insufficient vehicle battery
charge
charging the vehicle's high
voltage battery
Notice
During the installation process, the
vehicle may not be operational.

Vehicle data recording
and privacy
Event data recorders
Electronic control units are installed in
your vehicle. Control units process
data which is received by vehicle
sensors, for example, or which they
generate themselves or exchange
amongst themselves. Some control
units are necessary for the safe
functioning of your vehicle, others
assist you while you drive (driver
assistance systems), while others
provide comfort or infotainment
functions.
The following contains general
information about data processing in
the vehicle. You will find additional
information as to which specific data
is uploaded, stored and passed on to
third parties and for what purpose in
your vehicle under the key word Data
Protection closely linked to the
references for the affected functional
characteristics in the relevant owner's
manual or in the general terms of
sale. These are also available online.
Operating data in the vehicle
Control units process data for
operation of the vehicle.
This data includes, for example:
vehicle status information (e.g.
speed, movement delay, lateral
acceleration, wheel rotation rate,
"seat belts fastened" display)
ambient conditions (e.g.
temperature, rain sensor,
distance sensor)
As a rule such data is transient and is
not stored for longer than an
operational cycle, and only processed
on board the vehicle itself. Often
control units include data storage
(including the vehicle key). This is
used to allow information to be
documented temporarily or
permanently on vehicle condition,
component stress, maintenance
requirements and technical events
and errors.
Customer information 245
Depending on technical equipment
levels, the data stored is as follows:
system component operating
states (e.g. fill level, tyre
pressure, battery status)
faults and defects in important
system components (e.g. lights,
brakes)
system reactions in special
driving situations (e.g. triggering
of an airbag, actuation of the
stability control systems)
information on events damaging
the vehicle
for electric vehicles the amount of
charge in the high-voltage
battery, estimated range
In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle
has detected a malfunction), it may be
necessary to save data that would
otherwise just be volatile.
When you use services (e.g. repairs,
maintenance), the operating data
saved can be read together with the
vehicle identification number and
used where necessary. Staff working
for the service network (e.g. garages,
manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.
breakdown services) can read the
data from the vehicle. The same
applies to warranty work and quality
assurance measures.
Data is generally read via the OBD
(On-Board Diagnostics) port
prescribed by law in the vehicle. The
operating data read documents the
technical condition of the vehicle or
individual components and assists
with fault diagnosis, compliance with
warranty obligations and quality
improvement. This data, in particular
information on component stress,
technical events, operator errors and
other faults, is transmitted to the
manufacturer where appropriate,
together with the vehicle identification
number. The manufacturer is also
subject to product liability. The
manufacturer potentially also uses
operating data from vehicles for
product recalls. This data can also be
used to check customer warranty and
guarantee claims.
Fault memories in the vehicle can be
reset by a service company when
carrying out servicing or repairs or at
your request.
Comfort and infotainment
functions
Comfort settings and custom settings
can be stored in the vehicle and
changed or reset at any time.
Depending on the equipment level in
question, these include
seat and steering wheel position
settings
chassis and air conditioning
settings
custom settings such as interior
lighting
You can input your own data in the
infotainment functions for your
vehicle as part of the selected
features.
Depending on the equipment level in
question, these include
multimedia data such as music,
videos or photos for playback in
an integrated multimedia system
address book data for use with an
integrated hands-free system or
an integrated navigation system
246 Customer information
input destinations
data on the use of online services
This data for comfort and
infotainment functions can be stored
locally in the vehicle or be kept on a
device that you have connected to the
vehicle (e.g. a smartphone, USB stick
or MP3 player). Data that you have
input yourself can be deleted at any
time.
This data can only be transmitted out
of the vehicle at your request,
particularly when using online
services in accordance with the
settings selected by you.
Smartphone integration, e.g.
Android Auto or Apple CarPlay
If your vehicle is equipped
accordingly, you can connect your
smartphone or another mobile device
to the vehicle so that you can control
it via the controls integrated in the
vehicle. The smartphone image and
sound can be output via the
multimedia system in this case. At the
same time, specific information is
transmitted to your smartphone.
Depending on the type of integration,
this includes data such as position
data, day / night mode and other
general vehicle information. For more
information, please see the operating
instructions for the vehicle /
infotainment system.
Integration allows selected
smartphone apps to be used, such as
navigation or music playback. No
further integration is possible
between smartphone and vehicle, in
particular active access to vehicle
data. The nature of further data
processing is determined by the
provider of the app used. Whether
you can define settings, and if so
which ones, is dependent on the app
in question and your smartphone's
operating system.
Online services
If your vehicle has a radio network
connection, this allows data to be
exchanged between your vehicle and
other systems. The radio network
connection is made possible by
means of a transmitter device in your
vehicle or a mobile device provided
by you (e.g. a smartphone). Online
functions can be used via this radio
network connection. These include
online services and applications /
apps provided to you by the
manufacturer or other providers.
Proprietary services
In the case of the manufacturer's
online services, the relevant functions
are described by the manufacturer in
an appropriate location (e.g. Owner's
Manual, the manufacturer's website)
and the associated data protection
information is provided. Personal
data may be used to provide online
services. Data exchange for this
purpose takes place via a protected
connection, e.g. using the
manufacturer's IT systems provided
for the purpose. Collection,
Customer information 247
processing and use of personal data
for the purposes of preparation of
services take place solely on the
basis of legal permission, e.g. in the
case of a legally prescribed
emergency communication system or
a contractual agreement, or by virtue
of consent.
You can activate or deactivate the
services and functions (which are
subject to charges to some extent)
and, in some cases, the vehicle's
entire radio network connection. This
does not include statutory functions
and services such as an emergency
communication system.
Third party services
If you make use of online services
from other providers (third parties),
these services are subject to the
liability and data protection and usage
conditions of the provider in question.
The manufacturer frequently has no
influence over the content exchanged
in this regard.
Therefore, please note the nature,
scope and purpose of the collection
and use of personal data within the
scope of third party services provided
by the service provider in question.
Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID)
RFID technology is used in some
vehicles for functions such as tyre
pressure monitoring and immobiliser.
It is also used in connection with
conveniences such as radio remote
controls for door locking / unlocking
and starting. RFID technology in
Vauxhall vehicles does not use or
record personal information or link
with any other Vauxhall system
containing personal information.
