Operator's Manual
This Supplement provides information on all the important functions of your AMG vehicle that are either not described or differ from the descrip tions in the vehicle Operator's Manual. This information supplements or replaces the corre sponding sections in the vehicle Operator's Man ual. Under no circumstances does the Supple ment replace the Operator's Manual.
This Supplement describes all models, and standard and optional equipment for your vehi cle, as available at the time of going to press. Country-specific differences are possible. Bear in mind that your vehicle may not feature all functions described here. This is also the case for systems and functions relevant to safety. Therefore, the equipment on your vehicle may differ from that in the descriptions and illustra tions.
The original purchase contract documentation for your vehicle contains a list of all of the sys tems in your vehicle.
Should you have any questions concerning equipment and operation, please consult an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.
The Operator's Manual, the Supplement and the Maintenance Booklet are important documents and should be kept in the vehicle.
Operating safety
&WARNING Risk of accident due to mal functions or system failures
If you do not have the prescribed service/ maintenance work or any required repairs carried out, this could result in malfunctions or system failures.
#Always have the prescribed service/ maintenance work as well any required repairs carried out at a qualified spe cialist workshop.
&WARNING Risk of accident and injury as a result of incorrect modifications to electronic component parts
Modification to electronic components, their software or wiring could impair their function and/or the function of other networked com ponent parts. In particular, systems relevant to safety could also be affected.
As a result, they may no longer function as intended and/or endanger the operating safety of the vehicle.
#Never tamper with the wiring and elec tronic component parts or their soft ware.
#You should have all work on electrical and electronic components carried out at a qualified specialist workshop.
Observe the "On-board electronics" section in "Technical data" in the vehicle Operator's Man ual.
8General notes
&WARNING Risk of fire due to flammable materials on hot parts of the exhaust system
Flammable material such as leaves, grass or twigs may ignite if they come into contact with hot parts of the exhaust system.
#When driving on unpaved roads or offroad, regularly check the vehicle under side.
#Remove trapped plants or other flam mable material.
#If there is damage, consult a qualified specialist workshop immediately.
* NOTE Damage to the vehicle
In the following situations, in particular, there is a risk of damage to the vehicle:
RThe vehicle becomes grounded, e.g. on a high curb or an unpaved road
RThe vehicle is driven too fast over an obstacle, e.g. a curb, speed bump or pot hole
RA heavy object strikes the underbody or chassis components
In situations such as this, the body, the underbody, chassis components, wheels or tires could be damaged without the damage being visible. Components damaged in this way can unexpectedly fail or, in the case of an accident, may not absorb the loads that arise as intended.
If the underbody paneling is damaged, flam mable materials such as leaves, grass or twigs can collect between the underbody and the underbody paneling. These materials may ignite if they come into contact with hot parts on the exhaust system.
#Have the vehicle checked and repaired immediately at a qualified specialist workshop.
or
#If driving safety is impaired while con tinuing your journey, pull over and stop the vehicle immediately in accordance with the traffic conditions, and contact a qualified specialist workshop.
