The original purchase contract documenta-
tion for your vehicle contains a list of all of the
systems in your vehicle.
Contact a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre if
you have any questions about equipment or
operation.
The Owner's Manual and the Service Booklet
are important documents and should be kept
in the vehicle.
Operating safety
Important safety notes
G
WARNING
All work on the vehicle and, in particular, work
relevant to safety or on safety-related sys-
tems must be carried out at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
G
WARNING
Some safety systems only function when the
engine is running. You should therefore never
switch off the engine when driving. Otherwise,
the safety systems of your vehicle may not
function correctly and as a result will no lon-
ger protect you and other persons as inten-
ded. In addition, there is a risk that you may
lose control of your vehicle and thus cause an
accident.
G WARNING
Work carried out incorrectly, or alterations
made to the vehicle, e.g. re-routing of cables
under coverings, could cause the safety sys-
tems of your vehicle to stop working properly.
The safety systems would thus no longer pro-
tect you and other persons as intended. In
addition, there is a risk that you may lose con-
trol of your vehicle and thus cause an acci-
dent.
All work and alterations to the vehicle, e.g.
installations or modifications, should there-
fore be carried out at a qualified specialist
workshop.
G
WARNING
If work on electronic equipment and its soft-
ware is carried out incorrectly, this equipment
could stop working. The electronic systems
are networked via interfaces. Tampering with
these electronic systems could cause mal-
functions in systems which have not been
modified. Malfunctions such as these can
seriously jeopardise the vehicle's operating
safety and therefore your own safety.
You should therefore have all work and mod-
ifications to electronic components carried
out at a qualified specialist workshop.
