Genuine Mercedes-Benz Parts - Mercedes-Benz G-Class G461 Owner's Manual

Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts

Mercedes-Benz tests genuine parts as well
as conversion parts and accessories which
have been specifically approved for your
vehicle in terms of their reliability, safety
and suitability.
Despite ongoing market research,
Mercedes-Benz is unable to guarantee oth-
er parts. Mercedes-Benz therefore accepts
no responsibility for the use of such parts
in Mercedes-Benz vehicles, even if they
have been independently or officially ap-
proved.
In Germany and several other countries,
certain parts are only officially approved
for installation or modification work if they
comply with legal requirements. All genu-
ine Mercedes-Benz parts satisfy these reg-
ulations.
Make sure that the replacement part is
suitable for your vehicle. In many coun-
tries, parts that constitute a modification
to the vehicle could invalidate the general
operating permit. This is the case if:
the type of vehicle approved in the
general operating permit has changed
it could endanger road users
it has a detrimental effect on exhaust
emissions or vehicle noise levels
The use of non-approved parts could jeop-
ardise vehicle safety. For this reason,
Mercedes-Benz recommends only genuine
Mercedes-Benz parts and conversion parts
and accessories which have been ap-
proved for your vehicle.

Environmental note
DaimlerChrysler also supplies reconditioned
assemblies and parts which are of the same
quality as new parts. These parts have the
same warranty cover as new parts.
You can obtain genuine Mercedes-Benz
parts as well as approved conversion parts
and accessories from a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre. Here you will receive ad-
vice about technical modifications and the
parts will be professionally fitted.
Always quote the vehicle identification
number and the engine number when or-
dering genuine parts. You will find these
numbers on the vehicle data card in the
Service Booklet or on your vehicle's identi-
fication plates ( page 236).
