Protecting the environment
General notes
Environmental note
H
Daimler's declared policy is one of compre­hensive environmental protection.
The objectives are for the natural resources that form the basis of our existence on this planet to be used sparingly and in a manner that takes the requirements of both nature and humanity into account.
You too can help to protect the environment by operating your vehicle in an environmen­tally responsible manner.
Fuel consumption and the rate of engine, transmission, brake and tire wear are affected by these factors:
R
operating conditions of your vehicle
R
your personal driving style
You can influence both factors. You should bear the following in mind:
Operating conditions:
R
avoid short trips as these increase fuel con­sumption.
R
always make sure that the tire pressures are correct.
R
do not carry any unnecessary weight.
R
remove roof racks once you no longer need them.
R
a regularly serviced vehicle will contribute to environmental protection. You should therefore adhere to the service intervals.
R
always have service work 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
keep an eye on the vehicle's fuel consump­tion.
Environmental concerns and recom­mendations
Wherever the operating instructions require you to dispose of materials, first try to regenerate or re-use them. Observe the relevant environmen­tal rules and regulations when disposing of materials. In this way you will help to protect the environment.

H
Daimler AG also supplies reconditioned major assemblies and parts which are of the same quality as new parts. They are covered by the same Limited Warranty entitlements as new parts.
Air bags and Emergency Tensioning Devi-

ces, as well as control units and sensors for these restraint systems, may be installed in the following areas of your vehicle:
R
doors
R
door pillars
R
door sills
R
seats
R
cockpit
R

R
center console
Do not install accessories such as audio sys­tems in these areas. Do not carry out repairs or welding. You could impair the operating efficiency of the restraint systems.
Have aftermarket accessories installed at a qualified specialist workshop.
You could jeopardize the operating safety of your vehicle if you use parts, tires and wheels as well as accessories relevant to safety which have not been approved by Mercedes-Benz. This could lead to malfunctions in safety-relevant

systems, e.g. the brake system. Use only genu­ine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts of equal qual­ity. Only use tires, wheels and accessories that have been specifically approved for your vehi­cle.
Genuine Mercedes-Benz parts are subject to strict quality control. Every part has been spe­cifically developed, manufactured or selected for and adapted to Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Therefore, only genuine Mercedes-Benz parts
Introduction
should be used. More than 300,000 different genuine
Mercedes-Benz parts are available for Mercedes-Benz models.
All authorized Mercedes-Benz Centers maintain a supply of genuine Mercedes-Benz parts for necessary service and repair work. In addition, strategically located parts delivery centers pro­vide quick and reliable parts service.
Always specify the vehicle identification number (VIN) when ordering genuine Mercedes-Benz parts (Y page 383).
