Steering

Driving hints

Control of the vehicle

Never coast with engine not

running (except during Autostop)

Many systems will not function in this

situation (e.g. brake servo unit, power

steering). Driving in this manner is a

danger to yourself and others. All

systems function during an Autostop,

but there will be a controlled reduction

in power steering assist and vehicle

speed is reduced.

Starting and operating

If power steering assist is lost

because the engine stops or due to a

system malfunction, the vehicle can

be steered but may require increased

effort.

New vehicle running-in

Do not brake unnecessarily hard for

the first few journeys.

During the first drive, smoke may

occur because of wax and oil

evaporating off the exhaust system.

Park the vehicle in the open for a

while after the first drive and avoid

inhaling the fumes.

During the running-in period fuel and

engine oil consumption may be

higher and the cleaning process of

the diesel particle filter may take

place more often. Autostop may be

inhibited to allow for charging the

battery.

A vehicle message will be displayed

in the Info-Display.

Caution

Vehicles equipped with hydraulic

power steering:

If the steering wheel is turned until

it reaches the end of its travel, and

is held in that position for more

than 10 seconds, damage may

occur to the power steering

system and there may be loss of

power steering assist.

Stop-start system 3 137.

Pedals

To ensure the pedal travel is

uninhibited, there must be no mats in

the area of the pedals.

Diesel particle filter 3 141.

Use only floor mats, which fit properly

and are fixed by the retainers on the

driver side.
