Auto-hold brakes
With the Auto-hold brake function, the driver
can release the brake pedal and the brakes
will remain applied, for example, when the
vehicle has stopped at a traffic light or inter-
section.
When the vehicle stops, the brakes are acti-
vated automatically. The function can use
either the normal brakes or the parking brakes
to keep the vehicle stationary and works on
flat surfaces or hills. If the driver has their seat
belt fastened and/or if the driver's door is
closed, the brakes will disengage automati-
cally when the vehicle starts driving.
When braking to a stop on an uphill or
downhill gradient, depress the brake pedal
with slightly more force than usual before
releasing to ensure that the vehicle cannot
move at all.
The parking brake is activated if
•
the vehicle is switched off.
•
the driver's door is opened
•
the driver's seat belt is removed
•
the vehicle has been stationary for a pro-
longed period of time (5-10 minutes)

Hill Start Assist
The function for assisting when starting the
vehicle on inclines (HSA
4
) helps prevent the
vehicle from rolling backward when starting
on an uphill gradient. When backing up a hill,
HSA helps prevent the vehicle from rolling
forward.
The function retains pressure from the brake
pedal in the brake system for several seconds
after the brake pedal has been released.
This temporary braking effect is released after
a few seconds or when the driver begins driv-
ing.
Hill Start Assist is activated when the vehicle
is stopped on steep inclines. The function is
available even when the Auto-hold brake func-
tion is switched off.

Braking assist after a collision
In a collision in which the activation level is
reached for the pyrotechnic seat belt tension-
ers or airbags, or if a collision with a large ani-
mal is detected, the vehicle's brakes will be
automatically activated. This function is
intended to help prevent or reduce the effects
of any subsequent collision.
After a serious collision, it may no longer be
possible to control and steer the vehicle. In
order to avoid or mitigate a possible further
collision with a vehicle or an object in the vehi-
cle's path, the brake assist system is activated
automatically to help stop the vehicle safely.
If braking is not appropriate, e.g. if there is a
risk of being hit by passing traffic, the driver
can override the system by depressing the
accelerator pedal.
This function assumes that the brake system
is intact after a collision.

Transmission
The transmission is part of the vehicle's drive-
line (power transmission) between the engine
and the drive wheels. The function of the
transmission is to change gears depending
on speed and power needs.
The vehicle has an 8-speed automatic trans-
mission. The number of gears allows the
engine's torque and power band to be effec-
tively utilized.
Two of the gears are overdrive gears that save
fuel when driving at a constant engine speed.
Both the gear selector and the steering wheel
paddles can be used to shift up or down man-
ually. The selected gear selector position will
be displayed in the instrument panel.

The kickdown function
Kickdown can be used when maximum
acceleration is needed e.g. when passing.
When the accelerator pedal is depressed all
the way to the floor (past the normal full accel-
erator position), the transmission will auto-
matically engage kickdown, i.e. immediately
shift down to a lower gear.
If the accelerator pedal is released from the
kickdown position, the transmission will auto-
matically shift up again.
Safety function
The transmission control module is equipped
with a downshift protection feature to help
prevent the engine from overheating.
In some conditions, the transmission will pre-
vent downshifting/kickdown if this would lead
to such high engine speed (rpm) that the
engine could be damaged. If the driver still
attempts downshifting or kickdown at a high
rpm, nothing will happen and the original gear
will remain selected.
With kickdown, the vehicle can downshift one
or more steps at a time depending on the
engine speed. The vehicle upshifts when the
engine reaches its maximum rpm to prevent
engine damage.

All Wheel Drive (AWD)
All-wheel drive (AWD
9
), also called four-
wheel drive, means that power is distributed
to all four wheels, which improves traction.
To achieve the best traction, power is auto-
matically directed to the wheels that have the
best grip. The system continuously calculates
the need for torque to the rear wheels, and
can immediately redistribute up to half of the
engine's torque to the rear wheels.
All-wheel drive also has a stabilizing effect at
higher speeds. In normal driving conditions,
most of the engine's power is directed to the
front wheels. When the vehicle is stationary,
all-wheel drive is always activated in prepara-
tion for maximum traction during acceleration.
All-wheel drive reacts differently depending on
which drive mode is selected.

•
Some of the climate system settings will
be reduced or switched off.
•
Information will be shown in the ECO
gauge in the instrument panel to help pro-
mote more eco-friendly and economical
driving.
Coast function Eco Coast
Eco Coast essentially deactivates engine brak-
ing, allowing the vehicle's kinetic energy to be
used to roll greater distances. When the driver
releases the accelerator pedal, the transmis-
sion is automatically disengaged from the
engine. Engine speed is reduced to idling
speed to reduce fuel consumption.
This function is most effective in driving situa-
tions where the vehicle can roll freely for a
long distance e.g. on roads with slight down-
grades or when a decrease in speed is antici-
pated such as when approaching an area with
a lower speed limit.
Activating Eco Coast
The function is activated when the accelerator
pedal is fully released and the following condi-
tions are met:
•
Eco
drive mode is activated.
•
The gear selector is in

65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) range
•
the gradient of the downgrade is more
than approximately 6%
•
the steering wheel paddles
*
are being
used for manual shifting.
Deactivating and turning off Eco Coast
In certain situations, it may be advisable to
deactivate or turn off Eco Coast so that engine
braking can be used. These situations might
include driving down steep hills or before
passing another vehicle to help ensure this
can be done as safely as possible.
Deactivate Eco Coast by
•
pressing the accelerator or brake pedal
•
moving the gear selector to manual mode
•
using the steering wheel paddles
*
to shift.
Turn off Eco Coast by
•
switching to another drive mode
*
•
deactivating
Eco
drive mode in Function
view.
It is possible to roll short distances even with-
out Eco Coast in order to help conserve fuel.
However, for the best fuel economy, Eco
Coast should be activated and used to roll
longer distances.
Cruise control Eco Cruise
When cruise control is activated in the
Eco
drive mode, the vehicle's acceleration and
deceleration will be slower than in other drive
modes to help further conserve fuel. Because
of this, the vehicle's actual speed may be
slightly above or below the set speed.
•
On a level road, the vehicle's actual speed
may differ from the set speed when cruise
control is active and the vehicle is coast-
ing.
•
On a steep uphill gradient, the vehicle's
speed is reduced until the transmission
downshifts. Reduced acceleration is then
initiated in order to reach the set speed.
•
On a downhill gradient in which the vehi-
cle is coasting, the vehicle's actual speed
may be slightly above or below the set
speed. The function uses engine braking
to keep the set speed. If necessary, the
normal brakes are also applied.

The ECO gauge also has an indicator showing
how a reference driver would drive in the same
driving situation. This is shown by the short
pointer in the gauge.
ECO Climate
In
Eco
mode, ECO climate is automatically
activated in the passenger compartment to
help reduce energy consumption.
When the
Eco
drive mode is activated, set-
tings for certain climate system and elec-
tricity consuming functions are reduced.
Some of these settings can be reset man-
ually, but full functionality will only be
restored by switching off
Eco
mode or
adapting the
Individual
*
drive mode to full
climate system functionality.
If condensation forms on the windows, tap the
max defroster button, which will function nor-
mally.
