To preserve the engine during the first 1,500 km:
R
drive at varying road speeds and engine
speeds.
R
drive in drive program C or E.
R
change gear before the rev counter needle is
Ô
of the way to the red area of the rev coun‐
ter.
R
do not shift down a gear manually in order to
brake.
R
avoid overstraining the vehicle, e.g. driving at
full throttle.
R
do not depress the accelerator pedal past
the pressure point (kickdown).
R
only increase the engine speed gradually and
accelerate the vehicle to full speed after
1,500 km.
This also applies when the engine or parts of the
drivetrain have been replaced.
Please also observe the following running-in
notes:
R
In certain driving and driving safety systems,
the sensors adjust automatically while a cer‐
tain distance is driven after the vehicle has
been delivered or after repairs. Full system
effectiveness is not achieved until the end of
this teach-in process.
R
Brake linings, brake discs and tyres that are
either new or have been replaced only ach‐
ieve optimum braking effect and grip after
several hundred kilometres of driving. Com‐
pensate for the reduced braking effect by
applying greater force to the brake pedal.
Notes on driving
&
WARNING Risk of accident due to
objects in the driver's footwell
Objects in the driver's footwell may impede
pedal travel or block a depressed pedal.
This jeopardises the operating and road
safety of the vehicle.
#
Stow all objects in the vehicle securely
so that they cannot get into the driver's
footwell.
#
Always fit the floor mats securely and
as prescribed in order to ensure that
there is always sufficient room for the
pedals.
#
Do not use loose floor mats and do not
place floor mats on top of one another.
&
WARNING Risk of accident due to
unsuitable footwear
Operating the pedals may be impaired by
wearing unsuitable footwear, e.g.:
R
platform shoes
R
high-heeled shoes

slippers
#
Always wear suitable footwear when
driving so that you can operate the ped‐
als safely.
