WARNING
Switching off the engine while the vehicle is moving can make the vehicle harder to stop and
result in loss of vehicle control, leading to collisions and severe personal injuries.
Brake and steering assistance systems, the airbag system, safety belt pretensioners, and
other vehicle safety features only work when the engine is running.
Switch off the engine only when the vehicle is not moving.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury when starting and running the vehicle's engine:
Never start the engine or let it run in a confined or enclosed area. Engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide, a poisonous, colorless, and odorless gas. Carbon monoxide can cause
unconsciousness and death.
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running. The vehicle could move
suddenly or some other unexpected event could occur resulting in property damage or
personal injury.
Never use starting assist fluids. Starting fluids can explode and can cause a “run-away”
vehicle condition.
WARNING
The vehicle exhaust system and the catalytic converter can get very hot. They can cause fires
and serious personal injury.
Never park the vehicle where the hot exhaust system or catalytic converter could ignite
flammable materials, such as brush, leaves, dry grass, spilled fuel, etc.
Never apply additional undercoating or rustproofing on or near the exhaust manifold,
exhaust pipes, catalytic converter, or heat shields.

vehicle systems such as the power windows can be operated, leading to serious personal
injury.
Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who cannot help themselves in the
vehicle. The doors can be locked with the remote control vehicle key. This could result in
people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency. For example, depending on the time of
year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
Heat buildup in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle can result in
temperatures in the vehicle that are much higher than the outside temperatures, particularly
in summer. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause unconsciousness and
death, particularly to small children.
Never remove the key from the ignition switch while the vehicle is moving or rolling to a
stop. The steering wheel will lock and you will not be able to steer or control the vehicle.
Leaving the key in the ignition for a long time when the engine is not running will drain the
vehicle battery.
Leaving the selector lever for a long period of time in any position other than Park (P) when the
ignition is switched off can drain the vehicle battery.
On automatic transmission vehicles, the vehicle key can be removed from the ignition switch
only when the transmission is in Park (P). You may have to press the release button on the
transmission selector lever to put the lever into Park (P).

Emergency closing and opening
WARNING
Rapid acceleration can cause skidding and loss of traction, especially on slippery roads,
resulting in a loss of vehicle control, collisions, and serious personal injury.
Only use the kick-down feature or fast acceleration if visibility, weather, road, and traffic
conditions permit and other drivers will not be endangered by your driving and the vehicle's
acceleration.
WARNING
Constant braking causes the brakes to overheat and even to fail leading to collisions and
serious personal injury.
Never “ride” the brakes or apply the brake pedal too often or too long.
Riding the brakes will substantially reduce braking performance, increase stopping
distance, and can cause complete brake system failure.
NOTICE
Never “ride” the brakes by keeping your foot on the brake pedal when you do not want to
brake. This will make the brakes wear faster.
Before driving downhill, especially on hills that are long or steep, always reduce speed and
shift into lower gear (manual or automatic transmission). This will let the vehicle use engine
braking and reduce the load on the brakes. Otherwise, the brake system could overheat and
even fail. Only use the brakes when you need them to slow the vehicle down more or to stop.

Pedals
Fig. 138 Pedals in vehicles with manual transmission: 1 Accelerator pedal, 2 Brake pedal, 3 Clutch pedal.
Fig. 139 Pedals in vehicles with automatic transmission: 1 Accelerator pedal, 2 Brake pedal.
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
All pedals must always be able to move freely in and out without interference from floor mats or other
things.
Only use floor mats that leave the pedal area free and are held securely in place with floor mat
fasteners to help prevent sliding.
If a brake circuit malfunctions, more brake pedal travel is needed to bring the vehicle to a full stop, and
it is important that nothing is in the way when you have to depress the brake pedal harder and farther
than normal.
WARNING
Objects in the driver footwell can prevent the pedals from moving freely. This can cause loss
of vehicle control and increase the risk of serious personal injuries.
Always make sure that nothing can interfere with the pedals.
Always fasten floor mats securely to the floor.
Never put floor mats or other floor coverings on top of already installed floor mats.
Always make sure that nothing can fall into the driver footwell while the vehicle is moving.
NOTICE
Always make sure that the pedals are able to move freely and that nothing can interfere with
them. If a brake circuit fails, more brake pedal travel will be needed to bring the vehicle to a
stop. The brake pedal must be pressed farther and harder than normal.
Manual transmission: Gearshift lever
Fig. 140 Gearshift pattern of a 6-speed manual transmission.
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS
The positions of the individual gears are shown on the gearshift lever
⇒
fig. 140
.
Depress the clutch pedal all the way and hold.
Move the gearshift lever into the desired position.

Downshifting
You should always downshift gear by gear when driving, meaning always into the next lowest gear. Do
not downshift when the engine rpm (revolutions per minute) is too high
⇒
. At fast speeds or high
engine rpms, skipping over one or more gears when downshifting can cause damage to the clutch and
transmission, even if a gear is not engaged
⇒
.
WARNING
Downshifting to a lower gear incorrectly can result in loss of vehicle control and can cause
accidents and serious personal injuries.
WARNING
When the engine is running and a gear is engaged, the vehicle will start to move as soon as
the clutch pedal is released, even when the parking brake is applied. This also applies when
the parking brake is engaged.
Never shift into reverse when the vehicle is moving.
NOTICE
Shifting down to a gear that is too low when driving at fast speeds or high engine rpms can
cause extensive damage to the clutch and transmission. That is true even if the clutch pedal is
pressed so that the clutch is not engaged.
NOTICE
To help prevent damage and premature wear:
Do not rest your hand on the gearshift lever while driving. Over time, the pressure will
cause premature wear in the transmission.
Make sure that the vehicle has come to a complete stop before shifting into reverse.
Always depress the clutch pedal all the way when changing gears.
Do not hold the vehicle on a hill using engine power with the clutch pedal partially engaged
and the engine running.
Automatic transmission: Selector lever
Fig. 141 Automatic transmission selector lever with shift lever release button (arrow).
Please first read and note the introductory information and heed the WARNINGS

Designation
Meaning
⇒
Park
The drive wheels are mechanically locked.
Select only when the vehicle is not moving. To change the
selector lever position, switch on the ignition (if it is off) and then
press the selector lever release button while holding down the
brake pedal.
Reverse
The Reverse (R) gear is engaged.
Shift into Reverse (R) only when the vehicle is not moving.
Neutral
Transmission is in Neutral (N) position. No power is transmitted
to the wheels and no engine braking effect is available.
Drive (standard
driving position)
All forward gears shift up and down automatically. The
transmission shifts as needed depending on engine load,
individual driving style, and vehicle speed.
Sport Drive (Sport
driving position)
All forward gears automatically upshift later and downshift
earlier than in the Drive (D) position, to take full advantage of
the engine's power reserves. The transmission shifts as needed
depending on engine load, individual driving style, and vehicle
speed.
Automatic Shift Lock (ASL)
The Automatic Shift Lock (ASL) in Park (P) and Neutral (N) prevents drive positions from being
engaged inadvertently, which would cause the vehicle to move.
To release the ASL, depress and hold the brake pedal with the ignition switched on. Press the release
button on the selector lever at the same time.
The ASL is not engaged if the selector lever is moved quickly through Neutral (N) (e.g., when shifting
from Reverse (R) to Drive (D)). This makes it possible to “rock” the vehicle backwards and forwards if
it is stuck in snow or mud. The ASL engages automatically if the brake pedal is not depressed and the
lever is in Neutral (N) for more than about 1 second and the vehicle is traveling no faster than about
3 mph (5 km/h).
Depress and then release the brake pedal.
WARNING
Moving the selector lever to the wrong position can cause loss of vehicle control, a collision,
and serious personal injury.
Never accelerate when moving the selector lever.
When the engine is running and a drive position is engaged, the vehicle will start to move
as soon as the brake pedal is released.
Never shift into Reverse (R) or Park (P) when the vehicle is moving.
WARNING
Unintended vehicle movement can cause serious personal injury.
Never get out of the driver's seat while the engine is running, especially when the
transmission is in a drive gear. If you must leave your vehicle while the engine is running,
always set the parking brake and shift the transmission into Park (P).
Never leave the vehicle in Neutral (N). It will roll down hills, whether the engine is running
or not.
When the engine is running and a drive gear - Drive (D), Sport Drive (S), or Reverse (R) -
has been selected, press and hold the brake pedal to keep the vehicle from moving. The
vehicle may “creep” and move forward or backward even if the engine is idling slowly.
Never shift into Reverse (R) or Park (P) when the vehicle is moving.
NOTICE
Even though the transmission is in Park (P), the vehicle may move a couple of inches (a few
centimeters) forwards or backwards if you take your foot off the brake pedal after stopping the
vehicle without first applying the electronic parking brake.
If the selector lever is moved into Neutral (N) by mistake when the vehicle is moving, take your
foot off the accelerator pedal. Wait until the engine speed has dropped to idle speed before moving
the selector lever into a drive gear.
Leaving the selector lever for a long period of time in any position other than Park (P) when the
ignition is switched off can drain the vehicle battery.
