Vehicle features and options
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with the
series. It also describes features that are not
necessarily available in your car, e. g., due to
the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and
systems.
Start/Stop button, drive
readiness
The concept
The following ready states can
be attained by pressing the
Start/Stop button:
▷ Radio ready state on/off.
▷ Operating readiness on/off.
▷ Activating/deactivating drive readiness.
To activate drive readiness, press the brake
pedal.
Switching radio-ready state on/off
The radio-ready state is activated by pressing
the Start/Stop button in the following situa‐
tions:
▷ When the engine is running.
▷ When drive readiness is activated.
Some electronic systems/power consumers
remain ready for operation.
The radio-ready state is switched off automati‐
cally:
▷ After approx. 8 minutes.
▷ When the vehicle is locked using the cen‐
tral locking system.
▷ Shortly before the battery is discharged
completely, so that drive readiness is
maintained.
The radio-ready state remains active if, e.g.,
the operating readiness is automatically
switched off for the following reasons:
▷ Opening or closing the driver's door.
▷ Unfastening of the driver's safety belt.
▷ When automatically switching from low
beams to parking lights.
Operating readiness on
The switched on operating readiness corre‐
sponds to the switched on ignition for conven‐
tional vehicles.
Press the Start/Stop button, and do not press
on the brake pedal at the same time.
All vehicle systems are ready for operation.
Most of the indicator and warning lights in the
instrument cluster light up for a varied length
of time.
To save battery power when the engine is off,
reel off operating readiness and any unneces‐
sary electronic systems/power consumers.
Operating readiness is switched off automati‐
cally in the following situations:
▷ When locking the vehicle, even if the low
beams are activated.
▷ Shortly before the battery is discharged
completely, so that drive readiness is
maintained.
Note
If the engine is switched off and operating
readiness is switched on, the system automati‐
cally switches to the radio-ready state when
the door is opened if the lights are turned off
or, if correspondingly equipped, the daytime
running lights are activated.
