Running-in notes
Important safety notes
In certain driving and driving safety sys-
tems, the sensors adjust automatically while
a certain distance is being driven after the
vehicle has been delivered or after repairs.
Full system effectiveness is not reached until
the end of this teach-in procedure.
New or replaced brake pads/linings and discs
only reach their optimum braking effect after
several hundred kilometres of driving. Com-
pensate for the reduced braking effect by
applying greater force to the brake pedal.
The first 1500 km
If you treat the engine with sufficient care
from the very start, you will be rewarded with
excellent performance for the remainder of
the engine's life.
R
Drive at varying vehicle speeds and engine
speeds for the first 1500 km.
R
Avoid overstraining the vehicle during
this period, e.g. driving at full throttle.
R
Change gear in good time, before the rev
counter needle is
Ô
of the way to the red
area of the rev counter.
R
Do not shift down a gear manually in order
to brake.
R
Vehicles with automatic transmission: if
possible, do not depress the accelerator
pedal beyond the pressure point (kick-
down).
R
Vehicles with automatic transmission:
ideally drive in drive program E (Comfort)
for the first 1500 km.
After 1500 km, you may gradually bring the
vehicle up to full road and engine speeds.
You should also observe these notes on run-
ning-in if the engine or parts of the drive
train on your vehicle have been replaced.
Observe the maximum permissible speed.

Important safety notes
G
WARNING
Objects in the driver's footwell may
restrict the clearance around the pedals or
block a depressed pedal. This jeopardises
the operating and road safety of the vehi-
cle. There is a risk of an accident.
Stow all objects securely in the vehicle so
that they do not get into the driver's foot-
well. Always fit the floormats securely and
as prescribed in order to ensure that there
is always sufficient room for the pedals. Do
not use loose floormats and do not place
several floormats on top of one another.
G
WARNING
Unsuitable footwear can hinder correct
usage of the pedals, e.g.:
R
shoes with thick soles
R
shoes with high heels
R
slippers
There is a risk of an accident.
Wear suitable footwear to ensure correct
usage of the pedals.
G
WARNING
If you switch off the ignition while driv-
ing, safety-relevant functions are only
available with limitations, or not at all.
This could affect, for example, the power
steering and the brake boosting effect. You
will require considerably more effort to
steer and brake. There is a risk of an acci-
dent.
Do not switch off the ignition while driv-
ing.
