Hill start assist
Hill start assist helps you when pulling away for-
wards or in reverse on an uphill gradient. Hill
start assist automatically maintains the brake
pressure for about another two seconds, after
you have taken your foot off the brake pedal.
This gives you enough time to move your foot
from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal
and depress it before the vehicle begins to roll.
G
WARNING
After a while, hill start assist no longer holds
the vehicle and it may roll away. There is a risk
of an accident and injury.
Therefore, quickly move your foot from the
brake pedal to the accelerator pedal. Never
leave the vehicle when it is held by hill start
assist.
Hill start assist is not active if:
R
you are pulling away on a level road or a
downhill gradient

on vehicles with an automatic transmission

ECO start/stop function
General notes
When the ECO start/stop function is opera-
tional, it switches the engine off automatically if
the vehicle is slowed to a stop under certain
conditions.
When pulling away again, it starts the engine
automatically. The ECO start/stop function
thereby helps you to reduce the fuel consump-
tion and emissions of your vehicle.
The ECO stop/start function is automatically
activated each time you start the engine with the
ignition key.
On vehicles with an automatic transmission, the
ECO start/stop function is automatically deac-
tivated in drive program M. You can manually
activate the ECO start/stop function if required.
If
è
ECO symbol
:
is shown in green, the
ECO start/stop function will switch the engine
off automatically when the vehicle is stopped.
