Possible cause/consequence
You are driving with the parking brake
set.
The brake pads have reached their wear
limit.
There is insufficient brake fluid in the
reservoir.

If you find that the brake fluid in the brake
G
fluid reservoir has fallen to the minimum mark or
below, have the brake system checked for brake
pad thickness and leaks.
Possible solution
Release the parking brake
( page 48).
Have the brake pads replaced as soon
as possible.
Risk of accident! Stop the vehicle and
notify an authorized Mercedes-Benz
Center. Do not add brake fluid! This
will not solve the problem.

Brake pad thickness must be visually in-
spected by a qualified technician at the intervals
specified in the Maintenance Booklet.
