ARNING Risk of accident when the cen-
ter of gravity is too high
The vehicle may start to skid and rollover in the
event of sudden steering maneuvers and/or
when the vehicle's speed is not adapted to the
road conditions.
Always adapt your speed and driving
#
style to the vehicle's driving characteris-
tics and to the prevailing road and
weather conditions.
Utility vehicles have a signi cantly higher rollover
rate than other types of vehicles.
Unsafe operation of the vehicle can result in an
accident or rollover, as well as serious or even fatal
injuries.
In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is signi -
cantly more likely to die than a person wearing a
seat belt.
You and all vehicle occupants should always wear
seat belts.

Despite careful development, Mercedes-Benz AG
cannot completely rule out the interaction of vehi-
cle systems with electronic medical aids such as
cardiac pacemakers.
In addition, there are components built into the
vehicle that, regardless of the operating status of
your vehicle, can generate magnetic elds on a par
with permanent magnets. These elds can be
found, for example, in the area around the multi-
media and sound system or also in the seating
area, depending on the vehicle equipment.
For this reason, the following can occur in isolated
cases, depending on the aids used:

Observe the notes and warnings of the manufac-
turer of the medical aids; if in doubt, contact the
device manufacturer and/or your doctor. If there is
continuing uncertainty concerning the possibility
of medical aids malfunctioning, Mercedes-Benz AG
recommends using only a few electrical vehicle
systems and/or maintaining an appropriate dis-
tance from the components.
Only have repairs and maintenance work in the
area of the following components carried out by a
