Fuels are highly flammable.
Fuels are poisonous and hazardous to your health.
If you or other people come into contact with fuel, observe the following:
Electrostatic charge can create sparks and thereby ignite fuel vapours.
This discharges any electrostatic charge that may have built up.
Otherwise, electrostatic charge could build up again.
Vehicles with a diesel engine:
If you mix diesel fuel with petrol, the flash point of the fuel mixture is lower than that of pure diesel fuel.
While the engine is running, component parts in the exhaust system may overheat without warning.
Vehicles with a petrol engine:
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could result in damage to the fuel system, the engine and the emission control system.
Fuel of this specification may contain up to 10% ethanol. Your vehicle is suitable for use with E10 fuel.
diesel
regular petrol with an octane number lower than 91 RON
petrol with more than 10% ethanol by volume, e.g. E15, E30, E85, E100
petrol with more than 3% methanol by volume, e.g. M15, M30
petrol with additives containing metal
If you accidentally refuel with the wrong fuel:
Vehicles with a diesel engine:
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could result in damage to the fuel system, the engine and the emission control system.
In countries without sulphur-free diesel fuel, refuel using only low-sulphur diesel fuel with a sulphur content less than 50 ppm.
petrol
marine diesel
heating oil
pure bio-diesel fuel or vegetable oil
paraffin or kerosene
If you accidentally refuel with the wrong fuel:
Do not switch the ignition on. Otherwise fuel can enter the engine.
Even small amounts of the wrong fuel could result in damage to the fuel system and the engine. The repair costs are high.

The vehicle or the fuel filler flap is unlocked More.
Do not get into the vehicle again during the refuelling process. Otherwise, electrostatic charge could build up again.
Observe the notes on operating fluids More.
Vehicles with a diesel engine: the tank filler neck is designed for refuelling at diesel filling pumps.
Vehicles with a diesel engine: when the fuel tank is completely empty, top up with at least 5 litres of diesel.
Vehicles with a diesel engine: use a filler neck with a large diameter for vehicles with a diesel engine when topping up fuel from a fuel can. Otherwise, the filler neck cannot slide into the tank.
The spelling on the main menu displayed may differ. Therefore, observe the menu overview for the instrument display MoreMore.

Refill AdBlue See Owner's Manual. The AdBlue® tank is down to the reserve level.
Top up AdBlue Emergency op. in XXX miles See Owner's Manual. You can only drive the vehicle over the distance shown. The AdBlue® tank is down to the reserve level.
Top up AdBlue Perf. reduced: XXX km/h No start in XXX km . You can only drive the vehicle over the distance shown. Refill AdBlue® as soon as possible.
Refill AdBlue No start in XXX km . You can only drive the vehicle over the distance shown. Refill AdBlue® as soon as possible.
Refill AdBlue Start not possible. The vehicle can no longer be started.
You can see the AdBlue® range and level in the multifunction display More.
The AdBlue® range shown depends strongly on the driving style and operating conditions. The actual range can therefore deviate from the calculated range.
You can also store the AdBlue® filler cap in the fuel filler cap holder in the fuel filler flap hinge arm.
The filling process stops when the AdBlue® tank is completely full.
AdBlue® refill canister can be removed when it has been only partially emptied.
If the vehicle could not be started as the AdBlue® tank was empty, it can take up to 60 seconds for the refill to be detected.
Avoid storing AdBlue® refill containers permanently in the vehicle.
Certain components in the engine compartment can be very hot, e.g. the engine, the radiator and parts of the exhaust system.
If you open the engine bonnet when the engine has overheated or during a fire in the engine compartment, you could come into contact with hot gases or other escaping operating fluids.
Windscreen washer concentrate is highly flammable. It could ignite if it comes into contact with hot engine component parts or the exhaust system.
If the windscreen wipers begin to move while you are changing the wiper blades, you can be trapped by the wiper arm.
The wiper arms will move into the change position.
If the colour of the maintenance display changes from black to yellow, the wiper blades should be replaced.
The duration until the colour changes varies depending on the usage conditions.

Certain components in the engine compartment can be very hot, e.g. the engine, the radiator and parts of the exhaust system.
the engine must have an oil dipstick. If not, the engine oil level can be checked only with the on-board computer More.
Depending on the engine, the oil dipstick may be installed in the engine compartment in different locations.
The waiting time before checking the oil level when the engine is at normal operating temperature is five minutes.
Oil level is correct: oil level is between and .
Oil level too low: oil level is at or below.
Oil level too high: oil level is above .
The engine must have an oil level sensor. If not, the engine oil level can be checked only with the oil dipstick More.
The engine oil level is determined during driving. Determining the engine oil level can take up to 30 minutes with a normal driving style and even longer with an active driving style.
warm up the engine
park the vehicle on a level surface
leave the engine running at idling speed

Braking efficiency is reduced after washing the vehicle.
to avoid possible water ingress in the vehicle, it is preferable to use car washes which allow the high-pressure pre-cleaning to be deactivated (specification for the cabriolet program).
it is imperative to avoid a subsequent hot-wax treatment.
remove the key in order to ensure that the wind deflector on the windscreen retracts.
Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC and the HOLD function are deactivated.
the 360° Camera or the reversing camera is switched off.
the side windows and soft top are closed completely.
the blower for the ventilation/heating is switched off.
the windscreen wiper switch is in position .
the key is at a minimum distance of 3 m away from the vehicle, otherwise the boot lid could open unintentionally.
in car washes with a conveyor system: neutral is engaged.
In car washes with a conveyor system: if you would like to leave the vehicle while it is being washed, make sure the key is located in the vehicle. The gear is otherwise automatically engaged.
If, after the car wash, you remove the wax from the windscreen and wiper rubbers, this will prevent smearing and reduce wiper noise.
