Getting started
Driving
̈
Carefully depress the accelerator
pedal.
After a cold start, the automatic transmis-
sion shifts at a higher engine revolution.
This allows the catalytic converter to reach
its operating temperature earlier.
!
Shift the automatic transmission to
position P or R only when the vehicle is
stopped in order to avoid damaging the
transmission.
Once the vehicle is in motion, the auto-
matic central locking system engages
and the locking knobs drop down.
Warning!
G
i
The automatic door lock feature can be
deactivated (୴ page 188).
!
On slippery road surfaces, never downshift
in order to obtain braking action. This could
result in drive wheel slip and reduced vehi-
cle control. Your vehicle’s ABS will not pre-
vent this type of loss of control.
Do not run cold engine at high engine
speeds. Running a cold engine at high
engine speeds may shorten the service
life of the engine.
i
You can open a locked door from the
inside. Open door only when conditions
are safe to do so.
!
G
Simultaneously depressing the acceler-
ator pedal and applying the brake re-
duces engine performance and causes
premature brake and drivetrain wear.
Warning!
!
It is dangerous to shift the gear selector
lever out of P or N if the engine speed is
higher than idle speed. If your foot is not
firmly on the brake pedal, the vehicle could
accelerate quickly forward or in reverse. You
could lose control of the vehicle and hit
someone or something. Only shift into gear
when the engine is idling normally and when
your right foot is firmly on the brake pedal.
If you hear a warning signal and the
message Release parking brake
appears in the multifunction display
when driving off, you have forgotten to
release the parking brake.
For more information, see “Driving instruc-
tions” (୴ page 331).
Release the parking brake.
