Driving and operation
Control indicator
A
for engine electronics
Illuminates for a few seconds after the
ignition is switched on.
If it illuminates when the engine is running,
there is a fault in engine or transmission
electronics. The electronic system switches
to an emergency running programme. Fuel
consumption may be increased and the
driveability of the vehicle may be impaired.
In some cases the fault can be remedied by
switching the engine off and starting it
again. If the control indicator continues to
illuminate whilst the engine is running,
contact a workshop for assistance in
remedying the cause of the fault.
If it illuminates briefly, but does not recur, it
is of no significance.
Illumination of
A
may also indicate that
there is water in the diesel fuel filter

.
A text message appears on the service
display at the same time – see page 93.
Have diesel fuel filter checked for possible
presence of water residue – see page 258.
If it flashes after the ignition is switched on,
there is a fault in the electronic immobiliser
system. The engine cannot be started –
see page 27.
Exhaust gases
During the first drive smoke may develop
because of wax and oil evaporating on the
exhaust system. Park the vehicle in the
open for a while after the first drive and
avoid inhaling the fumes.

Warning
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, which is colourless and
odourless and could be fatal if inhaled.
If exhaust gases penetrate the vehicle,
open windows and contact a workshop
for assistance.
Avoid driving with the luggage
compartment open, since exhaust gas
can enter the interior of the vehicle.
