ENVIRONMENTAL NOTE Environmental
damage due to operating conditions and
personal driving style
The pollutant emission of your vehicle is
directly related to the way you operate your
vehicle.
You can help to protect the environment by
operating your vehicle in an environmentallyresponsible manner. Please observe the fol‐
lowing recommendations on operating condi‐
tions 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.
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-OfLife 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.

General notes
#
Have accessory parts retrofitted at a
qualified specialist workshop.
If you use parts, tyres, wheels or safety-relevant
accessories which have not been approved by
Mercedes-Benz, the operating safety of the vehi‐
cle may be jeopardised. Safety-relevant systems,
e.g. the brake system, may malfunction. Use only
genuine Mercedes-Benz parts or parts of equal
quality. Use only tyres, wheels and accessory
parts that are approved for your vehicle model.
Mercedes-Benz tests original parts, conversion
parts and accessory parts that have been
approved for your vehicle model for reliability,
safety and suitability. Despite ongoing market
research, Mercedes-Benz is unable to assess
other parts. Mercedes-Benz accepts no responsi‐
bility for the use of such parts in Mercedes-Benz
vehicles, even if they have been officially
approved or independently approved by a testing
centre.
Certain parts are only officially approved for
installation or modification if they comply with
legal requirements. 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 in the following situations:
R
the vehicle type changes from that stated in
the general operating permit.
R
other road users could be endangered.
R
the emissions or noise levels are adversely
affected.
Always specify the vehicle identification number
(VIN) when ordering genuine Mercedes-Benz
parts (/ page 349).
Information about attachments, add-on
equipment, installations and conversions
For safety reasons, have add-on equipment pro‐
duced and assembled in accordance with the
valid Mercedes-Benz add-on equipment guide‐
lines. These add-on equipment guidelines ensure
that the chassis and add-on equipment form one
unit and that the greatest possible level of opera‐
tional and driving safety is achieved.
Both vehicle manufacturers as well as body man‐
ufacturers must always ensure that the products
manufactured by them come into circulation only
in a safe state and do not pose any risks to peo‐
ple. Otherwise, there may be consequences
under civil, criminal or public law. All manufactur‐
ers are responsible for the products that they
have manufactured. The manufacturer of attach‐
ments, add-on equipment, inserts and conver‐
sions must guarantee compliance with Directive
2001/95/EC on general product safety.
Mercedes-Benz recommends the following for
safety reasons:
R
Do not make any other changes to the vehi‐
cle.
R
Obtain approval from Mercedes-Benz in the
event of deviations from the approved add-on
equipment guidelines.
Acceptance tests performed by public test bodies
or official approvals do not rule out safety risks.
Comply with the information about MercedesBenz genuine parts (/ page 22).
You will find the Mercedes-Benz add-on equip‐
ment guidelines on the internet at https://bbportal.mercedes-benz.com/portal/kat_iv.html?
&L. Remember that special access rights are
required in order to access the Mercedes-Benz
body manufacturer portal.
You will also find information about the PIN
assignment and changing the fuse there.

qualified specialist workshop.
&
WARNING Risk of accident and injury in
the event of incorrect conversions or
changes to the vehicle
Conversions or changes to the vehicle can
impair the function of systems or compo‐
nents.
As a result, they may no longer function as
intended and/or endanger the operating
safety of the vehicle.
#
Always have conversions or changes to
the vehicle made at a qualified work‐
shop.
Even seemingly minor changes to the vehicle,
such as attaching a radiator grille in winter, are
not permitted. Do not cover the radiator. Do not
use any thermal mats, insect protection covers
etc.
Otherwise, the values of the vehicle's diagnostic
system will be distorted. In some countries, the
recording of engine diagnostics data is prescri‐
bed by law and must be verifiable and correct at
all times.
General notes
23
The factory fits the vehicle with a wooden or plas‐
tic load compartment floor; this is an integral
part of the vehicle structure. If you have the load
compartment floor removed, the vehicle body
may be damaged. Load securing will then be
impaired and the maximum loading capacity of
the tie-down points will no longer be guaranteed.
Therefore, do not have the load compartment
floor removed.
Notes on the partition
Without a partition, vehicles that are approved as
commercial vehicles (N1, N2) do not fulfil
ISO 27956, which describes the equipment for
properly securing a load in delivery vehicles. If
the vehicle is used to transport goods, retrofitting
the partition is strongly recommended, as prop‐
erly securing the load in vehicles without a parti‐
tion will always be a complex operation.
Operating Instructions
These Operating Instructions describe all models
and all standard and special equipment available
for your vehicle at the time these Operating
Instructions went to press. Country-specific dif‐
ferences are possible. Note that your vehicle may
not be fitted with all functions described. This is
also the case for systems and functions relevant
to safety. Therefore, the equipment on your vehi‐
cle may differ from that in the descriptions and
illustrations.
The original purchase agreement documentation
for your vehicle contains a list of all the systems
in your vehicle.
Should you have any questions concerning equip‐
ment and operation, consult a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
The Owner's Manual and Service Booklet are
important documents and should be stored in the
vehicle.
Note on vehicles which are equipped by body
manufacturers
Always observe the body manufacturer's Operat‐
ing Instructions. You could otherwise fail to rec‐
ognise dangers.
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 special‐
ist 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.
If you make any changes to the on-board elec‐
tronics, the general operating permit is rendered
invalid.
Observe the "Vehicle electronics" section in the
"Technical data".
&
WARNING Risk of fire due to flammable
materials on hot parts of the exhaust sys‐
tem
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.
#

NOTE Damage to the vehicle
In the following situations, in particular, there
is a risk of damage to the vehicle:
R
the vehicle becomes grounded, e.g. on a
high kerb or an unpaved road
R
the vehicle is driven too fast over an
obstacle, e.g. a kerb, speed bump or pot‐
hole
R
a heavy object strikes the underbody or
chassis components
In situations such as this, the body, the
underbody, chassis components, wheels or
tyres 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 panelling is damaged, flam‐
mable materials such as leaves, grass or
twigs can collect between the underbody and
the underbody panelling. 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.
