Introduction
Operating safety
Warning! G
Work improperly carried out on electronic components and associated software could cause them to cease functioning. Because the vehicle’s electronic components are in­terconnected, any modifications made may produce an undesired effect on other sys­tems. Electronic malfunctions could seri­ously impair the operating safety of your vehicle.
See an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center for repairs or modifications to electronic components.
Other improper work or modifications on the vehicle could also have a negative impact on the operating safety of the vehicle.
Some safety systems only function while the engine is running. You should therefore nev­er turn off the engine while driving.
Warning! G
Heavy blows against the vehicle underbody or tires/wheels, for example when running over an obstacle, road debris or a pothole, may cause serious damage and impair the operating safety of your vehicle. If you feel a sudden significant vibration or ride distur­bance, or you suspect that damage to your vehicle has occurred, you should turn on your hazard warning flashers, carefully slow down, and drive with caution to an area which is a safe distance from the road.
Inspect the vehicle underbody and tires/wheels for possible damage. If the ve­hicle appears unsafe, have it towed to the nearest authorized Mercedes-Benz Center or other qualified maintenance or repair fa­cility for further inspection or repairs.
Proper use of the vehicle
Proper use of the vehicle requires that you are familiar with the following information and rules:
the safety precautions in this manual
the “Technical data” section in this
manual
traffic rules and regulations
motor vehicle laws and safety stan-
dards
Warning! G
Various warning labels are attached to your vehicle. These warning labels are intended to make you and others aware of various risks. You should not remove any of these warning labels unless explicitly instructed to do so by information on the label itself. Re­moval of any of these labels may cause you and others to be unaware of certain risks which may result in an accident and/or per­sonal injury.
