Driving and operation 98
Overrun
The fuel supply is autom atically shut off
during overrun, e.g. when the vehicle is
being driven down long gradients or d uring
braking. To enable the overrun cut-off to
come into action, do not accelerate or
depress clutch p edal during ov errun.
Eng ine rpm
Under all driving conditions driv e in a
favourable engine speed rang e.
Warming up
Allow the engine to warm up while driving.
Do not w arm it up by letting it run at idling
speed. Do not app ly full throttle until the
engine has reached operating
tem perature.
After a cold start, Easytronic
3 do not shift
into hig her gears until higher engine
speeds hav e been reached. This allows the
catalytic conv erter to quickly reach the
tem perature required for optim um
pollutant reduction.
Correct g ear selection
Do not race your engine whilst in neutral or
with a low gea r selected. Driving too fast in
indiv idua l gea rs or drive ranges as w ell as
stop-and-go traffic increa se engine wear
and fuel consum ption.
Change dow n
When decreasing speed shift down into the
next lowest gear. Do not slip the clutch with
a high-revving engine. This is especially
important when hill climbing.
Clutch op era tion 3
Alw ays dep ress the clutch ped al hard to
the floor to prev ent shifting difficulties and
tra nsmission dam age. There must b e no
mats in the area of the p edals.
When driving do not use the pedal as a
footrest; this will cause substantial clutch
wear.
Pedals
Do not place any ob jects in the footwell
which could slip under the ped als and
inhibit the pedal trav el.
To ensure the pedal travel is uninhibited,
there must be no mats in the area of the
pedals.
Battery ca re w hile driving
When driving slowly or when the v ehicle is
stationary, e.g. in slow urban traffic, stop-
and-go traffic or traffic jams, turn off all
unnecessary electrical load s w here
possible (heated rear window, auxiliary
hea dlights etc.).
When starting the eng ine, depress the
clutch pedal so that transmission
resistance is elimina ted a nd the starter
motor and battery are relieved.
