Vehicle features and options

This chapter describes model-specific equip-

ment, systems, and functions that are currently

available, or may become available in the fu-

ture, even if they are not present in the vehicle.

1. Depress the brake pedal.

2. Press the Start/Stop button.

Drive-ready state is turned on.

Additional information:

3. Engage the desired selector lever position,

e.g., D or R.

Start/Stop button

5. To drive off, release the brake pedal and

press the accelerator pedal.

Principle

The Start/Stop button is used to turn vehicle

operating states on/off.

Acoustic pedestrian protection

Depending on vehicle equipment and national-

market version, Acoustic Pedestrian Protection

generates a continuous driving noise in vehi-

cles with electric or electrically assisted drives.

Overview

▷

When the vehicle is stationary and drive-

ready state is on, as soon as selector lever

position P is disengaged.

▷

With electric driving up to approx.

20 mph/30 km/h.

A speaker system broadcasts the noise to the

environment. This helps other road users, e.g.,

pedestrians or cyclists, be able to see the vehi-

cle better.

The Start/Stop button is located on the

center console.

Auto Start/Stop function

Turning on the drive-ready state

Drive-ready state turns on when the brake

pedal is pressed while pushing the Start/Stop

button.

Principle

The Auto Start/Stop function helps save fuel.

The system switches off the engine during a

stop, for instance in traffic jam or at traffic

lights. Drive-ready state remains on despite

the engine being stopped. The engine starts

automatically for driving off.

Pushing the Start/Stop button again will turn

off drive-ready state and turn on standby state.
