Driving precautions
Vehicle equipment
This chapter describes all standard, country-spe‐
cific and special equipment available for the
model series. It may therefore describe equip‐
ment and functions which are not installed in
your vehicle, for example on account of the op‐
tional equipment selected or the country variant.
This also applies to safety-relevant functions and
systems. Please comply with the relevant laws
and regulations when using the corresponding
functions and systems.
Running in
General
Moving parts need to adjust to each other.
The following notes will help to maximise the ve‐
hicle's lifetime and efficiency.
Do not use Launch Control when running in.
Safety note
WARNING
New parts and components can cause safety
and Driver Assistance Systems to respond with
a delay. There is a risk of accident. After new
parts have been installed or if the vehicle is
new, drive moderately and intervene in good
time if necessary. Please comply with running-
in procedures for the corresponding parts and
components.
Engine, gearbox and differential
Up to 2000 km, 1200 miles
Do not exceed the maximum engine revs and
speed:
▷
With petrol engines, 4500 rpm and 160 km/h,
100 mph.
▷
With diesel engines, 3500 rpm and 150 km/h,
93 mph.
Generally avoid kick-down and driving under full
load.
From 2000 km, 1200 miles onwards
Engine and road speeds can be gradually in‐
creased.
Tyres
Due to the manufacturing process, new tyres do
not achieve their full road grip immediately.
Drive moderately for the first 300 km, 200 miles.
Brake system
Brake discs and pads only achieve their full ef‐
fectiveness after approximately 500 km,
300 miles. Drive moderately during this running-
in period.
Clutch
The clutch only begins to function optimally at
approximately 500 km, 300 miles. Engage the
clutch gently during this running-in period.
After fitting new parts
Please comply with the running-in procedures
again if the components previously referred to
are renewed.
