Switching off the engine
when stationary
When you stop the car for longer periods, for
example at traffic lights, railway crossings or in
traffic jams, switch off the engine.
You save fuel even if the engine is off for no lon‐
ger than approximately four seconds.
The Auto Start Stop function* of your vehicle
shuts off the engine automatically during a stop.
Switching off functions that
are not necessary at the
moment
Functions such as seat heating or heated rear
window require a great deal of energy and con‐
sume additional fuel, especially in city traffic and
stop/go traffic.
For this reason, switch these functions off if they
are not required.
Having the car serviced
Have the vehicle serviced regularly to achieve
optimal economy and service life. It is recom‐
mended to have maintenance work performed
by your Service centre.

ample, the air conditioning power.
In addition, situation-dependent instructions
can be displayed which help you to drive with
optimum fuel consumption.
In the instrument cluster, the extension of the
range achieved as a result can be displayed.
