e carry-
full throttle.
do not depress the accelerator pedal past the
R

Only increase the engine speed gradually and
R
accelerate the vehicle to full speed a er
1,500 km.
This also applies when the engine or parts of the
drivetrain have been replaced.
Please also observe the following running-in
notes:
In certain driving and driving safety systems,
R
the sensors adjust automatically while a cer-
tain distance is being driven a er the vehicle
has been delivered or a er repairs. Full sys-
tem e ectiveness is not reached until the end
of this teach-in process.
Brakepads, brake disks and tyres that are
R
either new or have been replaced only achieve
optimum braking e ect and grip a er several
hundred kilometres of driving. Compensate for
the reduced braking e ect by applying greater
force to the brake pedal.
N N o o t t es on op
es on optimised acceler
timised acceleration
ation
If all necessary requirements and activation con-
ditions are ful lled, the best possible acceleration
can be achieved from a standstill.
Do not use the optimised acceleration on public
roads. Individual wheels could spin and you could
lose control of the vehicle. There is an increased
risk of skidding and/or accident.
Be sure to observe the safety notes and informa-
tion on ESP
