traffic and intervene if necessary. Be aware of the
limitations regarding the safe use of these sys‐
tems.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, the driving
systems can neither reduce the risk of accident
nor override the laws of physics. The road and
weather conditions as well as the traffic situation
cannot always be taken into account.
Information on vehicle sensors and cameras
Some driving and driving safety systems use
cameras and radar or ultrasonic sensors to moni‐
tor the area in front of, behind or next to the vehi‐
cle.

Depending on the vehicle's equipment, the
radar sensors are integrated on the side of
the rear bumpers and/or behind the
Mercedes star in the radiator grill.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to
restricted detection performance of vehi‐
cle sensors and cameras
If the area around vehicle sensors or cameras
is covered, damaged or dirty, certain driving
and safety systems cannot function correctly.
There is a risk of an accident.
Keep the area around vehicle sensors or
#
cameras clear of any obstructions and
clean.
Have damage to the bumper, radiator
#
grille or stone chipping in the area of
the front and rear windows repaired at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Keep the areas of the cameras and sensors free
of dirt, ice and slush (
page 184). The sensors
/
and cameras and their detection areas must not
be covered. Do not attach additional license plate
holders, advertising media, stickers, foils or stone
protection foils in the detection range of the sen‐
sors and cameras. Ensure that no protruding load
extends into the detection area.
In the event of damage, or following a severe
impact, have the function of the sensors checked
at a qualified specialist workshop. Have damage
or stone chips in the area of the cameras
repaired at a qualified specialist workshop.
