Operating safety
Operating safety
Electrical and electronic equipment which
has been retrofitted can affect the operational safety of your vehicle. If equipment
of this kind is retrofitted, it must be typeapproved and bear the e-mark.
If you wish to have mobile phones, twoway radios or fax machines installed in the
vehicle, you must obtain formal approval.
Retrofitting electrical and electronic
equipment
Risk of accident G
Work carried out incorrectly on electronic
equipment and its software could stop this
equipment working.
The electronic systems are interconnected
through interfaces.
Since the electronic systems are interconnected, intervention in these systems could
also affect systems that have not been modified.
Malfunctions such as these could jeopardise
the operating and road safety of your vehicle.
They could also alter the driving and braking
characteristics of your vehicle.
You could cause an accident and endanger
or injure yourself or others as a result.
Other work on or modifications to the vehicle which are carried out incorrectly may
also impair the vehicle's operating safety.
For this reason, always have taximeters,
control systems, printers or other electrical
or electronic equipment retrofitted at a qualified specialist workshop which has the necessary specialist knowledge and tools to
carry out the work required.
6
Operating safety
The installation of mobile phones, two-way
radios or fax machines should only be carried out if the maximum transmission outputs listed below are not exceeded.
Always have this type of equipment professionally installed in accordance with the
instructions in this supplement, and fitted
with an external aerial which has been
tuned to be reflection-free.
For reasons of safety and the electromagnetic compatibility of the vehicle,
Mercedes-Benz recommend that you only
operate electrical or electronic equipment
which fulfils these conditions.
!
Only operate electrical or electronic
equipment using the connection points
fitted as standard. The equipment
could otherwise interfere with the vehicle electronics.
Frequency range Maximum

output
2 m band 6 W
70 cm band 20 W
!
When retrofitting
mobile phones
two-way radios
fax machines
observe the appropriate MercedesBenz installation specifications.
Failure to observe these may invalidate
the vehicle's operating permit
(EU Directive 95/54 /EC).

Operating safety
Operation of mobile phones and
two-way radios
Risk of accident G
The operation of mobile phones, two-way
radios and fax machines without an external
aerial in the vehicle interior may cause malfunctions in the vehicle electronics.
This would jeopardise the operating and
road safety of your vehicle.
You could cause an accident and endanger
or injure yourself or others as a result.
Risk of accident G
To reduce the risk of an accident, only use
mobile phones and other equipment when
road and traffic conditions permit.
Only make a telephone call using a per-
manently installed hands-free device
Only use the two-way radio with hands-
free facility for radio operation
You could otherwise be distracted from the
traffic conditions.
Remember that at a speed of just 30 mph
(50 km/h), your vehicle is covering a distance of around 50 feet (14 m) every second.
i
In the Federal Republic of Germany, it is
forbidden to use a mobile phone while
driving and when the vehicle's engine is
running unless the vehicle has a permanently-installed hands-free facility.
Observe the legal requirements in all
countries concerned.
i
Do not place bank cards, credit cards or
other cards with magnetic strips in the
vicinity of the telephone bracket and
loudspeaker.
The magnetic field around the equipment could delete or corrupt the data
stored on the cards.

The taxi roof sign illumination is directly
connected to the taximeter.
If the taximeter is in counting mode, the
taxi roof sign illumination cannot be
switched on.
If you lock the vehicle with the remote control while the taxi roof sign illumination is
switched on, the taxi roof sign illumination
switches off automatically.
If you then unlock the vehicle using the
remote control, the taxi roof sign illumination is switched on again.
You can have this setting changed at a
qualified specialist workshop, e.g. at a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
The pushbutton switch for the taxi roof
sign illumination is combined with the
transmitter button for the two-way radio
with hands-free facility. The pushbutton
switch is located under the light switch
between the driver's door and the steering
wheel.
