ENVIRONMENTAL NOTE Environmental
damage due to operating conditions and
personal driving style
The pollutant emission of the vehicle is
directly related to the way you operate the
vehicle.
Operate your vehicle in an environmentally
responsible manner to help protect the envi‐
ronment. Please observe the following rec‐
ommendations on operating conditions and
personal driving style.
Operating conditions:
Make sure that the tyre pressure is cor‐
#
rect.
Do not carry any unnecessary weight
#
(e.g. roof luggage racks once you no
longer need them).
Adhere to the service intervals.
#
A regularly serviced vehicle will contrib‐
ute to environmental protection.
Always have maintenance work carried
#
out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
Do not depress the accelerator pedal
#
when starting the engine.
Do not warm up the engine while the
#
vehicle is stationary.
Drive carefully and maintain a suitable
#
distance from the vehicle in front.
Avoid frequent, sudden acceleration
#
and braking.
Change gear in good time and use each
#
gear only up to Ô of its maximum
engine speed.
Switch off the engine in stationary traf‐
#
fic, e.g. by using the ECO start/stop
function.
Drive fuel-efficiently. Observe the ECO
#
display for a fuel-efficient driving style.

General notes

Take-back of end-of-life vehicles

EU countries only:
Mercedes-Benz will take back your end-of-life
vehicle for environment-friendly disposal in
accordance with the European Union (EU) End-
of-Life Vehicles Directive.
A network of vehicle take-back points and dis‐
mantlers has been established for you to return
your vehicle. You can leave it at any of these
points free of charge. This makes an important
contribution to closing the recycling circle and
conserving resources.
For further information about the recycling and
disposal of end-of-life vehicles, and the take-
back conditions, please visit the national
Mercedes-Benz website for your country.
