Notes for persons with electronic medical aids

Mercedes-Benz AG cannot, despite carefully
developing vehicle systems, completely rule out
the interaction of vehicle systems with electronic
medical aids such as cardiac pacemakers.
In addition, there are components installed in the
vehicle that, regardless of the operating status of
the vehicle, can generate magnetic fields on a par
with permanent magnets. These fields can be
found, for example, in the area around the multi-
media and sound system or also in the area of the
seats, depending on the vehicle equipment.
For this reason, the following can occur in isolated
cases, depending on the aids used:
Medical aids malfunctioning
R
Adverse health effects
R
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 possibil-
ity of medical aids malfunctioning, Mercedes-
Benz AG recommends using only few electrical
vehicle systems and/or maintaining a distance
from the components.
When charging the high-voltage battery, keep a
distance of at least an arm's length between the
medical aid and the following components:
The power supply equipment
R
This includes charging stations in the form of a
wallbox or a public charging point, for exam-
ple.
Vehicle components carrying live voltage
R
This includes the charging cable and the
charging control box, for example.
