NOTE Increased wear due to optimised
acceleration
When pulling away with optimised accelera-
tion, all components of the drivetrain are sub-
jected to a very high load.
This can lead to increased component wear.
#
Do not always pull away with optimised
acceleration.
#
Engage the
h
drive position (
/
page 231).
#
Move the steering wheel to the straight-ahead
position.

#
Depress and hold the brake pedal firmly with
your left foot.
#
With your right foot, fully depress the acceler-
ator pedal.
#
After no more than five seconds, take your left
foot quickly off the brake, but keep the accel-
erator pedal depressed.
The vehicle will pull away at maximum acceler-
ation.

once the acceleration proce-
dure is complete.
Ending optimised acceleration
#
Remove your foot from the accelerator pedal.
#
Reactivate ESP

%
After you pull away with optimised accelera-
tion, components of the drivetrain can
become very hot, which means that optimised
acceleration values may be reached again
only after a few minutes.

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.
