Useful information
i
This Owner's Manual describes all models,
series and optional equipment for your vehi-
cle that were available at the time of going to
press. National variations are possible. Note
that your vehicle may not be equipped with all
of the functions described. This is also the
case for systems and functions relevant to
safety.

Information on technical data
i
The technical data was determined in
accordance with EU Directives. All data
applies to the vehicle's standard equipment.
The data may therefore differ for vehicles with
optional equipment. You can obtain further
information from a Mercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
Vehicle electronics
Tampering with the engine electron-
ics
!
Only have work carried out on the engine
electronics and its associated parts, such as
control units, sensors, actuating components
and connector leads, at a qualified specialist
workshop. Vehicle components may other-
wise wear more quickly and the vehicle's
operating permit may be invalidated.
Retrofitting two-way radios and
mobile phones (RF transmitters)
G
WARNING
If RF transmitters are tampered with or not
properly retrofitted, the electromagnetic radi-
ation they emit can interfere with the vehicle
electronics. This may jeopardise the opera-
tional safety of the vehicle. There is a risk of an
accident.
Vehicle electronics
You should have all work on electrical and
electronic components carried out at a quali-
fied specialist workshop.
G
WARNING
If you operate RF transmitters incorrectly in
the vehicle, the electromagnetic radiation
could interfere with the vehicle electronics,
e.g.:
if the RF transmitter is not connected to an
R
exterior aerial
the exterior aerial has been fitted incor-
R
rectly or is not a low-reflection type
This could jeopardise the operating safety of
the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Have the low-reflection exterior aerial fitted at
a qualified specialist workshop. When oper-
ating RF transmitters in the vehicle, always
connect them to the low-reflection exterior
aerial.
!
The operating permit may be invalidated if
the instructions for installation and use of RF
transmitters are not observed.
In particular, the following conditions must be
complied with:
only approved wavebands may be used.
R
observe the maximum permissible output
R
in these wavebands.
only approved aerial positions may be
R
used.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and to the
health of others. The use of an exterior aerial
takes into consideration the scientific discus-
sion surrounding the possible health risk posed
by electromagnetic fields.
Observe the notes on operating mobile phones
(
page 366).

The following aerial positions may be used for
the correct installation of RF transmitters:
