Brakes Brakes Handbrake Danger of injury! Never leave children unsuper vised in the vehicle. They could re lease the hand brake. This could result in an accident and cause serious or even fatal injuries. Accident risk! Secure the vehicle against roll ing away by pulling the hand brake. The vehicle could otherwise set itself in motion even with the gearshift le ver in position R and cause an acci dent. The handbrake serves to secure the car against rolling away when it is station ary or parked.
Brakes Footbrake Danger of injury! The movement of the pedals must not be impaired in any way. Do not keep any objects in the driver footwell. Make sure that there is sufficient clearance around the pedals when floor mats or carpets are used. Always activate the handbrake when parking. Never leave children unsupervised in the vehicle. They could move the gear lever and the vehicle could roll away on uphill or downhill gradients. The footbrake has two brake circuits that are independent of each other.
Brakes If a brake circuit fails (see "Brake sys tem faults", page 164), you must press the brake pedal further down to achieve the same effect, the braking distance is longer. >Note! The brake servo will function only with the engine switched on. 쮿 Immediately park your car away from moving traffic. 쮿 Secure your car against rolling away if you have to leave it. 쮿 Do not drive any further.
Brakes Anti lock braking system (abs) Accident risk! The risk of an accident especial ly increases when driving too fast, par ticularly when cornering and on wet or slippery roads as well as when driving too closely to the vehicle in front. abs and esp are unable to reduce this risk or override the laws of physics.

In conjunction with a correctly fastened seat belt, airbags afford ad ditional protective potential. Howev er, they are no substitute for the seat belts.
Airbags Do not lean on the doors from inside the vehicle. Do not place any objects on the air bags or between the airbags and the vehicle's occupants. Do not hang any hard objects such as coat hangers from the grab handles or coat hooks. In view of the unavoidably high infla tion speed of the airbag, the possibil ity of injuries when an airbag inflates cannot be entirely ruled out. Airbag operating principle The airbag is inflated in a matter of mil liseconds. The airbag indicator light comes on.
Airbags Danger of injury! After an airbag has been trig gered: airbag components will be hot. Do not touch them, or you could be burned the airbags must be changed by a qualified specialist workshop, which will have the necessary exper tise and tools for performing the work involved. smart gmbh recom mends that you visit a smart center for this. In particular, work relevant to safety or on safety related sys tems must be carried out at a quali fied specialist workshop.
Airbags Driver airbag/front passenger airbag The front airbags are intended to in crease the prospects of protecting the driver and front passenger against inju ries to the head or thorax.
Airbags Danger of injury! Observe the following notes to reduce the risk of serious or fatal in juries if the side airbag deploys: Occupants particularly children should never rest their head on the area around the window from which the side airbag could emerge if de ployed. Vehicle occupants must always wear their seat belt correctly and posi tion their backrest as close to the vertical as possible.
Airbags Airbag indicator light The airbag indicator light signals to you that there is a fault in one or more of the following safety systems: airbag, belt tensioners, child seat recognition system. The airbag indicator light comes on after switching the ignition on. The subsequent self diagnosis of the safety systems yields the following re sults: 1. The airbag indicator light goes out after a maximum of 4 seconds. > No fault detected. > The airbag system is OK. 2.
Airbags Danger of injury! For this reason, you should never carry a child on the passenger seat in a child restraint system that faces to the rear if the passenger airbag has not been deactivated, i.e. if the airbag in dicator light is not lit. Also observe the corresponding warn ing sticker on the instrument panel.

Where a car has the same size of wheel at the front and rear, only switch tyres between the front and rear axles (RF to RR; LF to LR). Fit new tyres on the rear wheels. Break in new tyres at moderate speeds for the first 100 kilometres. Check tyres and wheels regularly for damage.
Tyres and wheels Tyre condition Check tyres at regular intervals, e.g. for: external damage, ageing, foreign bodies in the tread, cracks, bulges, one sided or irregular tread wear. Tyre tread Do not undercut the minimum tread depth of 3 millimetres for summer tyres and 4 millimetres for winter tyres. Along with increasing tyre wear, the tyres' grip and car's handling characteristics deteriorate, particularly on wet or snow covered roads.
Tyres and wheels Tyre damage Tyre damage may be caused e.g. by: the vehicle's operating conditions, curbs, foreign bodies, inadequate tyre inflation pressure, weather and environmental factors, contact with oils, greases, fuels, etc. Accident risk! Driving over curbs or sharp edged objects can cause damage to the tyre's carcass that is not externally visible. Damage to the tyre's carcass will only become evident much later and may result in tyre damage.
Tyres and wheels Changing a wheel Accident risk! Exceeding the quoted tyre load capacity and the permissible speed limit can result in tyre damage or tyre failure. You could lose control over your vehicle and cause an accident, in juring yourself or others as a result. Only use wheels of the dimensions stat ed in the vehicle registration docu ments. Please note in particular the customer specific approval regula tions for tyres.
Tyres and wheels Removing a wheel Danger of injury! Position the jack only at one of the appropriate jacking points. If you do not position the jack correctly, the vehicle can: Slip off the jack Injure you or others Become damaged Danger of injury! The jack is designed only to raise the vehicle for a short time while a wheel is being changed. If you intend to work under the vehicle, place the vehicle on stands. Make sure that the jack is placed on solid , non slippery, level ground.
Tyres and wheels 쮿 Lever the car up using the jack until the wheel is off of the ground. 쮿 Completely unscrew the wheel bolts and remove the wheel. Fitting a new wheel Accident risk! Only use wheel bolts that have been designed for the wheel and the ve hicle. Other bolts could work loose. Do not tighten the wheel bolts com pletely while the vehicle is still jacked up. The vehicle could topple off the jack. Accident risk! Replace damaged or corroded wheel bolts. Never oil or grease wheel bolts.
Tyres and wheels 쮿 Fit the wheel in place and tighten the bolts handtight using the wheel wrench. 쮿 Lower the car and remove the jack from under it. 쮿 Tighten the wheel bolts firmly using the wheel bolt spanner (tightening torque: 110 Nm). >Note! If the newly mounted wheels exhibit any imbalance, have this checked and recti fied by a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a smart center. Accident risk! Have the tightening torque checked immediately after a wheel is changed.
Battery Battery Safety notes and protective measures when handling the battery Always observe the following safety notes and protective measures when handling the battery.

Battery Tips on battery care Your car's battery requires no mainte nance in normal vehicle operation (DIN 43539/T2). However, have the battery's charge status and acid level checked at the start of the cold season by a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. a smart cen ter. The battery stoppers on the top must be opened to check the acid level. Acid must come up to MAX mark. If the car is used almost exclusively for short trips, recharge the battery ap proximately every three months.
Battery Danger of explosion! Gases escaping from the battery during jump starting may cause minor explosions. Avoid creating sparks. Keep naked flames away from the bat tery and do not smoke. Comply with safety precautions and take protective measures when han dling batteries . Jump starting If your battery is flat and the car will not start, another vehicle may be able to help you start. Start your car's engine with the aid of jumper cables and the battery of the assisting vehicle.
Battery Jump start assistance 쮿 Switch off the engine of both vehicles. 쮿 Put the selector lever to N. 쮿 Switch off all electrical consumers. 쮿 Remove the battery cover. 쮿 Connect the positive terminal (A) with the red jumper cable. Begin with your own battery. 쮿 Connect the negative terminal of both batteries (B) with the black jumper ca ble. Begin with the battery of the assist ing vehicle. 쮿 Let the engine of the assisting vehicle run in neutral. 쮿 Deactivate the electronic immobiliser (see page 140).
Battery Charging the battery Danger of injury! Danger of explosion! When charging the battery, deflagra tions can occur due to gases escaping from the battery. Avoid creating sparks. Keep naked flames away from the battery and do not smoke. Do not touch the battery terminal with metal objects and do not remove the battery charger's terminal clamps un til the battery charger has been switched off and no further gas is being discharged by the batteries. Only charge the battery in a well venti lated area.
Roll starting Roll starting Preparations Roll starting If the starter is faulty you can try to start the car by letting it run down a steep hill. 쮿 Apply the footbrake. 쮿 Switch on the ignition. 쮿 Move the gearshift lever to position + 쮿 Release the footbrake. 쮿 Push the accelerator pedal to the floor. and hold it there. > As the speed of the car increases the clutch is automatically engaged and the engine starts. 쮿 Release the gearshift lever. 쮿 Apply pressure to the accelerator ped al.
