Operating safety
Digital speedometer and total
distance recorder
Do not allow the electronically stored total
distance covered by your vehicle to be
modified as a result of tampering with the
electronics system.
This type of modification or failing to in-
form the buyer when selling the vehicle
could constitute an offense punishable by
law, depending on the country concerned.
Modifying the engine power output
Having the engine power output of your
vehicle increased by tampering with the
electronic engine management system will
invalidate the vehicle's general operating
permit and insurance coverage, as well as
your warranty and warranty entitlement.
Modifications to the output of the engine
must be reported to the insurance provider
and require the vehicle to be recertified.
The tires, chassis, brake and cooling sys-
tems must be adapted to the increased en-
gine power output.
Tampering with the electronic engine man-
agement system modifies emission values
and it will not be possible to guarantee the
operating safety of the engine in every
case. Increases in performance may lead
to malfunctions and consequential dam-
age to other assemblies.
If you sell the vehicle, failing to inform the
buyer of the modified engine power output
could constitute an offense punishable by
law, depending on the country concerned.
Vehicle alterations
The manufacturer recommends the use of
genuine Sprinter parts and conversion
parts as well as accessories that have
been expressly approved for your vehicle
model ( page 352).
These parts have been subjected to spe-
cial tests in order to determine their safety,
reliability and suitability.
