Protection of the environment
Economical and environmentally

Environmental note
H
Daimler's declared policy is one of comprehensive environmental protection.
Our objectives are to use the natural resources which form the basis of our existence on
this planet sparingly and in a manner which
takes the requirements of both nature and
humanity into consideration.
You too can help to protect the environment
by operating your vehicle in an environmentally-responsible manner.

the following factors:
R
operating conditions of your vehicle
R
your personal driving style
You can influence both factors. Therefore,
please bear the following in mind:
Operating conditions:
R
avoid short trips, as these increase fuel
consumption.
R
observe the correct tyre pressure.
R
do not carry any unnecessary weight in the
vehicle.
R
remove the roof rack once you no longer
need it.
and tyre wear depend on
R
a regularly serviced vehicle will contribute
to environmental protection. You should
therefore adhere to the service intervals.
R
all maintenance work should be carried out
at a qualified specialist workshop.
Personal driving style:
R
do not depress the accelerator pedal when
starting the engine.
R
do not warm up the engine when the vehicle
is stationary.
R
drive carefully and maintain a safe distance
from the vehicle in front.
R
avoid frequent, sudden acceleration and
braking.
R
change gear in good time and use each gear
only up to Ô of its maximum engine speed.
R
switch off the engine in stationary traffic.
R
monitor the vehicle's fuel consumption.
Returning a used vehicle
Only for EU countries:
Mercedes-Benz will take back your end-of-life
vehicle for environment-friendly disposal in
accordance with the European Union (EU) Endof-Life Vehicles Directive.
A network of vehicle collection points and disassembly plants
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.

Operating safety and vehicle approval
Information on vehicle operation
There is a risk of damage to the vehicle if:
R
the vehicle makes contact with the ground,
e.g. on a high kerb or a loose road surface
R
you drive too quickly over an obstacle, e.g. a
kerb or a pothole
R
a heavy object hits the underbody or chassis
components
In these
or similar situations, the vehicle body/
frame, the underbody, chassis components,
wheels or tyres could be damaged even if this is
not visible from the outside. Components that
have been damaged in this way can unexpectedly fail or no longer be able to assimilate the
loads occurring in the event of an accident. If the
underbody panelling is damaged, flammable
material, such as leaves, grass or twigs, could
collect between the underbody and underbody
panelling. These materials could ignite if they
remain in contact with hot components of the
exhaust system for an extended period.
WARNING
G
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or
twigs may
ignite if they come into contact with
hot parts of the exhaust system. There is a risk
of fire.
When driving off road or on unpaved roads,
check the vehicle's underside regularly. In
particular, remove parts of plants or other
flammable materials which have become
trapped. In the case of damage, contact a
qualified specialist workshop.
Have the vehicle checked and repaired immediately at a qualified specialist workshop. If you
become aware when continuing the journey that
driving safety has been effected, stop as soon as
possible in accordance with the traffic conditions. In such cases, consult a qualified specialist workshop.
Declaration of conformity
Radio-based vehicle components
The following note applies to all radio-based
components of the vehicle and the information
systems and communication devices integrated
in the vehicle:
The components of the vehicle which receive

the basic requirements and all other relevant
regulations stipulated by Directive 1999/5/EC.

Notes on body/equipment mounting
directives
For safety reasons, have bodies manufac-

tured and
fitted in accordance with the applicable Mercedes-Benz body/equipment
mounting directives. These body/equipment
mounting directives ensure that the chassis
and the body form one unit and that maximum
operating and road safety is achieved.
For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recommends that:
R
no other modifications should be made to
the vehicle.
R
approval should be obtained from
Mercedes-Benz in the event of deviations
from approved body/equipment mounting
directives.
Approval from certified inspection agencies
or official approvals cannot rule out risks to
your safety.
Observe the information on genuine MercedesBenz parts (Y page 19).
The Mercedes-Benz body/equipment mounting
directives can be found on the Internet at
https://bb-portal.mercedes-benz.com.
There you can also find information on PIN
assignment and changing fuses.
You can obtain further information from any
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Notes on the radiator
Even seemingly small changes to the vehicle,
such as
attaching a radiator trim for winter driving, is not permitted. Do not cover up the radiator. Do not use thermal mats, insect protection
covers or anything similar.
Otherwise, the values of the diagnostic system
may be affected. In some countries, the recording of engine diagnostic data is a legal requirement, and must always be verifiable and accurate.

Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
Environmental note
H
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned
assemblies and parts which are of the same
quality as
ranty applies as for new parts.
If you use parts, tyres, wheels or safety-relevant
equipment which has not been approved by
Mercedes-Benz, the operational safety of the
vehicle may be jeopardised. Safety-relevant systems, e.g. the brake system, may malfunction.
Only use genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts
of an equivalent quality standard. Only use
tyres, wheels and accessory parts that are
approved for your type of vehicle.
Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts and conversion
parts and accessories that have been approved
for your vehicle are tested by Mercedes-Benz
for:

suitability
Despite ongoing market research, MercedesBenz is unable to assess other parts. MercedesBenz accepts no responsibility for the use of
such parts in Mercedes-Benz vehicles, even if
they have been independently or officially
approved.
In Germany, certain parts are only officially
approved for installation or modification if they
comply with legal requirements. This also
applies to some other countries. All genuine
Mercedes-Benz parts meet the approval
requirements. The use of non-approved parts
may invalidate the vehicle's general operating
permit.
This is the case if:
R
it results in a change to the vehicle type from
that for which the vehicle's general operating
permit was granted
R
they pose a possible risk for road users
R
they adversely affect the emission or noise

In the event of an accident, rescue services can

current rescue card contains, in compact form,
the most important information about your vehicle e.g. the routing of electric cables.
Further information can be found under http://

Data stored in the vehicle
A wide range of electronic components in your
vehicle contain data memories.
These data memories temporarily or permanently store technical information about:
R
the vehicle's operating status
R
events
R
malfunctions
In general, this technical information documents the state of a component, a module, a
system or the surroundings.
This includes, for example:
R
operating conditions of system components,
e.g. fluid levels.
R
the vehicle's
individual components, e.g. number of wheel
revolutions/speed, deceleration in movement, lateral acceleration, accelerator pedal
position.
R
malfunctions and defects in important system
components, e.g. lights, brakes.
R
the vehicle's reactions and operating statuses in special driving situations. e.g. airbag
deployment, intervention of stability control
systems.
R
ambient conditions, e.g. outside temperature.
This data is exclusively technical in nature and
can be used to:
R

faults and defects
R
