STARTING AND SWITCHING OFF THE ENGINE
The remote control key is not physically used during starting since
the standard version of the car is equipped with support for keyless
start (Passive Start). Store the key in the front part of the passen-
ger compartment during a keyless start. With the option for keyless
locking/unlocking (Passive Entry*) it is sufficient to have the key some-
where in the car in order for the engine to be started.
Starting
1. Make sure that gear position
P
or
N
is selected.
2. Depress the brake pedal.
3. Turn the ignition dial to
START
and release. The ignition dial auto-
matically returns to its starting position.
Selecting gear position
– Change gear position by pressing the spring-loaded gear selector
forwards or backwards to the desired gear. The selected position
will be shown in the driver display.
The park position is activated via the
P
button located next to the gear
selector. Change from
P
position to
R
or
D
position by means of two
presses with the gear selector forwards or backwards. Brake position
B
(which can be selected at any time while driving) engine brakes
the car and charges the hybrid battery when the accelerator pedal is
released.
Switching off
– Turn the ignition dial to
STOP
and release. The ignition dial auto-
matically returns to its starting position.
