152 Driving and operatingFuel consumption - CO2-EmissionsThe determination of fuelconsumption is regulated byEuropean directive715/2007 692/2008 A.The directive is oriented to actualdriving practices: Urban driving israted at approx. 1/3 and extra urbandriving at approx. 2/3. Cold starts andacceleration phases are also takeninto consideration.The specification of CO2 emission isalso a constituent of the directive.The figures given must not be takenas a guarantee for the actual fuelconsumption of a particular vehicle.Furthermore, fuel consumption isdependent on personal driving styleas well as road and traffic conditions.All values are based on the EU basemodel with standard equipment.The calculation of fuel consumptiontakes into account the vehicle's kerbweight, ascertained in accordancewith the regulations. Optionalequipment may result in slightlyhigher fuel consumption and CO2emission levels and a lower maximumspeed.Fuel consumption, CO2 emissions3 204.TowingGeneral informationThe factory-fitted towing equipment isfolded up under the rear bumperfascia.Entrust fitting of towing equipment ata later date to a workshop. It may benecessary to make changes thataffect the cooling system, heatshields or other equipment.
