tively contribute to reduced consumption.
Accordingly:
•
Active Eco Coast: Long coasting
without
engine braking = Low consumption
and
•
Deactivated ECO function: Short coasting
with
engine braking = Minimum con-
sumption.
NOTE
However, to achieve optimal low fuel con-
sumption, Eco Coast in combination with
short coasting distances should generally
be avoided.
Activating Eco Coast
The function is activated when the accelera-
tor pedal is fully released, in combination with
the following parameters:
•
ECO
button activated
•
Gear selector in
D
position
•
Speed within the range of
approx. 65-140 km/h
•
The road's downhill gradient is not
steeper than approx. 6%.
Deactivate Eco Coast
In certain situations it may be desirable to
deactivate the Eco Coast function. Examples
of such situations include:
•
on steep downhill gradients - to be able
to use engine braking.
•
before an imminent overtaking manoeu-
vre - in order to be able to complete it in
the safest possible way.
Deactivating Eco Coast and returning to
engine braking can be performed as follows:
•
Press the
ECO
button.
•
Move the gear lever to manual "
S+/-
"
position.
•
Change gear with the steering wheel pad-
dle shifters.
•
Actuate the accelerator or brake pedal.
Eco Coast - Limitations
The function is not available if:
•
cruise control is activated
•
the road's downhill gradient is steeper
than approx. 6%
•
manual gear changing is performed with
the steering wheel paddle shifters*
•
engine and/or gearbox are not at normal
operating temperature.
•
the gear selector is moved from
D
- to "
S
+/-
" position
•
speed is outside the range of
approx. 65-140 km/h
