If you hear a warning signal and the
messageRelease parking brake appears in
the multifunction display when driving off, you
have forgotten to release the parking brake.
̈
Depress the brake pedal.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO*
from the starter switch, take it with you and
lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unat-
tended in the vehicle, or with access to an
unlocked vehicle. Children could release the
parking brake, which could result in an acci-
dent and/or serious personal injury.
The gear selector lever can now be
used.
Release the parking brake (୴ page 60).
i Once the vehicle is in motion, the automatic
central locking system engages and the locking
knobs drop down.
̈ Shift automatic transmission to D or R
(୴ page 194).
i Wait for the gear selection process to com-
plete before setting the vehicle in motion.
The automatic door lock feature can be
deactivated (୴ page 183).
i Shifting from gear position P to position R,
N, or D is only possible with the brake pedal
depressed. Without the brake pedal depressed,
the gear selector lever can be moved, but the
parking pawl remains engaged, not allowing
shifting to occur.

Open door only when conditions are safe to do
so.
̈
Release the parking brake by pulling on
release handle 2.

sion shifts at a higher engine revolution.

line engine) or the oxidation catalyst (die-
sel engine) to reach its operating
temperature earlier.
The warning lamp ; (USA only)
or 3 (Canada only) in the
instrument cluster goes out.
